Wish Man

One of those movies you cry on. It's like lump is stuck on your throat. Very emotional, very sad movie with beautiful end. A very special movie, you will not forget for a long time. Deserve more than 10, and yes, it's worth watching.

The movie had me gripped from the beginning, right to the end! All the actors did incredible work bringing Frank's story to life! I was blessed to see it in my hometown and everyone was moved in the theater. The movie will touch many lives just like "Make a Wish" has! Frank Shankwitz's legacy now lives on in his movie too as it encourages us that no matter what we have been through, we all can make a difference!

I have been anxious to see this Film for Months, as Andrew Steel and Director Theo Davies were in San Diego doing PR and I saw them interviewed on KUSI News, but never was released in San Diego theatres ? Anyway, finally found it available for Purchase on Amazon Prime. Needless to say it was worth the wait ! What an outstanding Job in Film Making. The way Andrew Steel brings Frank Shankwitz to Life on screen brought me to tears. All the weak reviews are trolls for sure because I do not see how anyone with a Heart could not connect to this true story. The Flashbacks to his childhood seemed so real. The Comradery of all the characters is really well done too. Having some of the Cast from CHIPS in the Film was smart. An emotion filled Movie thru out, well worth your time and Means something Special. This is the story of the Founder of the Make a Wish Foundation but mainly about his life and childhood and what inspired Him to Found it.

Great movie about a great story. Actors play the story straight and true.

With a rating just above a 6 I was hesitant, the short description was terrible, and some of the reviews were "harsh". Now I know what an internet troll is. What a wonderful film about a story that absolutely needed to be told. I didn't get the beginning until the end, as I didn't research the story ahead of time. All the characters were solid, relatable and well acted. Knocked off one star because of some scenes that I am sure Frank wanted included but didn't add anything to the story. Just Wow, what a great/sad/uplifting/film. Best I've seen in years.
