Wrinkle In Time

I think I read this book approximately 20 times when I was a kid. I'm not sure why... maybe mostly because I owned it, so I didn't have to worry about getting it back to the library.
Megan started reading it on her own, but it was too difficult for her. So after a couple chapters, she let me finish it out loud.
The movie did not follow the book precisely, but it did follow it in spirit. It did a good job of not lagging at all, leaving out some details of time on Camazotz in the interest of action. It also invented some dream sequences, but they added to the excitement of the film.
Meg was a bit too boyish, especially given how adorable Calvin was. But the acting was decent overall. The teserects were way too repetitive and lengthy, this was my biggest complaint.
I loved all 3 of the Mrs (Who, Whatsit, Which), and Calvin and Charles Wallace.
Megan and I both give this movie a thumbs up.
