Simply Unmissable
This is, without doubt, one of the most touching animated films I've ever seen. Wrinkles tells the story of several elderly characters dealing with Alzheimer's, old age and the inevitable end, creating a beautifully powerful and moving film. Wrinkles manages to mix laughs and heart-breaking scenes perfectly, which allows the movie to be uplifting and warming, despite the emotional subject. The animation itself is stunning! Many of the scenes in this movie simply wouldn't work without the magic of animation. The characters are hugely believable and you'll find yourself falling in love with all of them (especially Martin Sheen's character!). I'd recommend this to all fans of cinema (both lovers of animated films and those who don't usually watch them).
