Remember how we told you we couldn’t wait for Disney’s Queen of Katwe to drop? We finally saw it, and boy oh boy was it amazing! It tells the real-life story of a 9-year-old Ugandan girl’s rise to World Chess fame. Here are all the reasons you need to go see it today!
1. It is not a white savior story *Halleluyah Somebody!*

2. Lupita Nyong’o was absolutely popping!

3. The portrayal of poverty was absolutely uncoated.

4. You get to listen to Nigerian songs in a Disney movie!

5. David Oyelowo’s performance as ‘Robert Katende’ was simply BRILLIANT.

6. Phiona’s character is a bundle of inspiration, power, smartness and good dance moves.

7. You’ll really, really like the kids in this movie.

8. If you’re seeing it with someone, it’ll get the conversation going!
