A Wrinkle in Time 2018 by AverageMansReviews

Review Time: this project is mixed

Fundamental elements: there are voice-over elements, background music, slow-motion effects, mental imagery, quick moving effects, cultural elements, time jumps and place jumps.

The management of this title including the other elements as well is a mixed bag throughout this film title [I will discuss this more later on in this review.]

Storyline: in short it is okay; it does remind me of The Never Ending Story franchise.

Artistic visions: these have imagination in them and they are engaging such as these flowers which turn out to be excellent rescuers or when one of our recurring characters turns into this green flying creature.

Character developments/Performances: now at first generally speaking these character developments use a paint by numbers character model or character models for this type of film, but however underneath all of this; it has been designed to include somewhere between young teens to women finding inner strength and things of this nature. Now to cover my back on this very controversial or argument bringing topic of conversation and other things, yes it may begin with having these conversations with other characters and our lead role, but it also includes young teen boys as well [without giving too much away, but this makes a good point; this young teen male has to go home and talk to his father, there is enough here to suggest he has learned something or things from this experience and no this character is not a bad person.]

From an overview perspective the performances are mixed based on my viewing experience; now this is where I'm going to bring up the movement and everything that comes with that in this title, it does take this project some time to get going on then it is mobile and then roughly around the final quarter it feels slow or something like this but I hasten to add at this point there are things happening.

My point here is this; there are three characters/performers on screen consistently when this film feels mobile and without these three characters/performers this film goes into slumps again.

But before I finish I should talk about the character developments a little bit more and the performances, because these character developments were and are a paint by numbers kind of thing, yes as I have already made reference to in this blog I understand the in-depth meaning of these things, but having said that some of these dialogue exchanges could have done with a little kick in them in one way or another [you know what I mean; something to grab its audiences,]

This film receives: 5/10, after taking everything into consideration this mark feels right, maybe a sequel would be a good idea just to see how these characters have been developing individually and together.
