Abandon Ship From Anna Faris’ New Comedy!

1 out of 5 stars (one of the worst films I have ever seen)


I’ve been reviewing movies since 2005, and I’ve seen a lot of clunkers. From offensive tripe like Daddy’s Home to the incompetence that is Furry Vengeance, I’ve had my fair share of displeasure at the multiplex.

Live-action Disney movies are a mixed bag. For every film that goes above and beyond expectations (Pete’s Dragon), there is one with irritatingly underused potential (Cinderella). Their newest film, A Wrinkle in Time, thankfully sits in the former category, with a mostly solid cast, colorful visuals, and, best of all, a truly empowering message for young children.
