Am I Missing Something?

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

Disappointing some good acting but story just lacked prob some children would enjoy but it was meh for me

Madeleine L'Engle's fantasy works are in part highly expressive of her Christian viewpoint in a manner somewhat similar to that of Christian fantasy writer C. S. Lewis. She was herself the official writer-in-residence at New York City's Episcopal Cathedral of St. John the Divine, which is known for its prominent position in the liberal wing of the Episcopal Church. L'Engle's liberal Christianity has been the target of criticism from more conservative Christians, especially with respect to certain elements of A Wrinkle in Time.

This movie is quite possibly the most atrocious book-to-film adaptation I've ever seen.A few decades too late, I finally got around to reading A Wrinkle in Time. It was beautiful. So magical, so moving, so touching, so brilliant. And because it was on Netflix, I decided to give it a watch not even an hour after I finished reading the book. What a horrible decision I'd made. I mean, if you're reading this, take this as a sign of God to not watch the movie. Stay away. Away, away, AWAY. It will ruin everything for you. I don't know who in the hell thought it was a good idea to put things in this sad excuse of a movie that never happened in the book. Things were taken out of order. Not even the decade is the same! I'm so upset I could cry.You have been warned. This movie is nearly nothing like the book. Watch something else. I need to binge watch The Office now to forget I ever watched this garbage.

I was browsing through Netflix and stumbled upon this movie. Having fond memories of the book as a child, I decided to check this out. This is a movie that you should really pass on.It is just not worth seeing. It is very boring and uninteresting. I feel that it would even be that way to small children. It has no magic that the book contains. This movie is not horrible, but you will just find yourself not caring ten minutes into it.There are moments that just come off as weird. The witch character is not very good. The family acts like it is no big deal that these odd things are happening. I know this is a kids movie, so as an older audience we must not look too deeply in things, but the whole movie just feels like it was written and produced by people who have never had any movie making experience before.The DVD that I had began skipping in the final moments of the film, and instead of trying to fix it I just turned it off and sent it back to Netflix. I really didn't care how it finished. Skip this film and read the book instead.
