Director, Jennifer Lee’s live action debut with, ‘A Wrinkle in Time’. She’s directed or wrote several Disney films such as ‘Wreck it Ralph’, ‘Frozen’, ‘Zootopia’, and ‘Big Hero 6’. ‘A Wrinkle in Time’, an inspirational film with wonderful scenery and humor. This is a kids’ movie, so some things that bother me about the film doesn’t mean it’ll bother the children since my age group isn’t the target audience. The film helps inspire kids to accept who they are and to stay strong in presence of negativity.
There are some scenes that scared me, and if I was younger I would be more scared. The darker scenes scared be similar to how I was afraid of ‘Wizard of Oz’. Since I was scared towards the end of the film, I wonder how children react to it. 
Certain things that felt off to me, one was how Charles Wallace was easily taken under control by IT. Is it to show how even though he’s so brilliant, he’s still just a kid? Charles Wallace knew about the Misses already so he seems more knowledgable than Meg. When Meg reunites with her dad, I thought there would be more tension in finding her day, but the overall relationship is between Meg and Charles Wallace as siblings. Certain scenes can cause certain degree of dizziness depending on the person.
‘A Wrinkle in Time’ a wonderful film that everyone can enjoy the theme.

Film and TV Show Recommendations

After I watch a Film or a TV show, I always list the name and the Director of the work.  At the end of the year, I count them all to see how many I've seen in that year.  These Films or TV shows are my Top works that I recommend. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Grand Budapest Hotel (Wes Anderson)      - Originally a novel, A Man narrates the story about his days of working as a Bell Boy at The Grand Budapest Hotel.  The Bell Boy also talks about the Concierge of the hotel.  I love the Cinematography of the film along with the interesting Story plot.  I feel like the Film's humor depends on the person's taste in humor.  The Humor was delivered through dialogue and action.  There are a few scenes that might not be appreciated by some people.  So, make sure you look closely at the rating of the film.  Hyouka (23 episodes) ...
