A Bad Wish In A Moment Of Weakness

Four American players and an all Kiwi supporting cast populate the credits of You Wish. Disney Studios filmed this pleasant and easy to take story in New Zealand.I kind of, sort of identified with poor A.J. Trauth in this film. My brother and I are separated by about as many years as Trauth and Spencer Breslin. There were times he could be a real pain, but I would have been just as horrified as Trauth was when a bad wish in a moment of weakness was granted.Trauth is your average high school kid who even though he's on the football team isn't quite total jock material. He has some oddball friends, at least some the cool kids would consider oddball and Trauth has some oddball hobbies like collecting coins.Anyway Trauth comes across an old Roman coin from dealer Tim Reid and buys it. And then he's granted a George Bailey like wish for Breslin. He wishes he never was born and the next day wakes up in an alternative universe where he's the only child of Peter Feeney and Sally Stockwell.No one will ever confuse You Wish with the Capra classic It's A Wonderful Life, but it's a nice feature, one of the Magic Kingdom's better made for television films.

Corny but enjoyable movie

This is one of those Disney Channel movies that is enjoyable to watch, but makes you want to smack the TV and has a sappy message at the end. Alex is a kid who wishes on a magic coin that he didn't have a brother and suddenly his life turns around: he has the "hot cheerleader girlfriend" and he's great at football. But he realizes that he'd rather have his old life back. It makes you want to smack the TV because the whole time you want him to just go back to the coin shop and buy another magic coin. But, it's enjoyable and I'd recommend it to most people who don't mind watching Disney Channel Originals.

Not The Best Disney Movie

Alex(A.J. Trauth) cannot stand his little brother Stevie(Spencer Breslin) and one day he finds a magic coin and wishes that he didn't have a little brother anymore. The next morning he wakes up, he finds his whole life turned upside down. His parents are rich, he is the school best football player, he is popular and he is dating the most popular girl in school Fiona(Emma Lahana). And of course, Alex doesn't have a little brother anymore and he has a new haircut! But of course, after a while, Alex is sick of his new life and misses his little brother to death. Let me just say that i thought A.J.Trauth did an excellent job, he is a very good actor and he's quite good looking, i hope to see more of him. The actress i was disappointed with was Lalaine(she played Alex's best friend), she cannot act, she stutters all the time and can't say any of her lines right, she sounds exactly the same as her character in Lizzie Mcguire. Other then that, the movie was alright, not the best disney movie but if you have nothing to do, it's a good way to cure your boredom. I would give You Wish 6/10
