The Reel Review
This is the inspiring, feel good, true story of one of Uganda’s first female titled chess champions, Phiona Mutesi. But this Disney film is more than just a predictable story about a surprising prodigy from the impoverished outskirts of Kampala. It’s a story about the importance of strong character and hard work, buoyed by heartfelt performances by Madina Nalwanga and Lupita Nyong’o, who turn what could have been just a sweet cliché into something truly special.
