Face ou pile!

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.

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.

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

This film wasn't too great- no golden globe winner- but it was a lot better than I expected it to be. The acting was good, and it had a connective storyline and interesting characters- something not usually found in a disney movie. I really enjoyed it- corny and cliched, yes, but annoying, no. I liked the characters, and the film occasionally gave us a little depth in the characters. I enjoyed it- 7/10.

when i first saw the reviews and trailers for this movie, i thought it looked a little stupid and weird but it was actually pretty good. I expected it as some cheesy Disney flick but i was wrong.

The acting starts off a little shaky then it turns up a lot more, the plot and storyline of the movie is original and very unique. Id recommend this movie to people that have time on their hands to watch and old Disney movie, its worth it...

id give it an 8/10

Really good and surprising movie. check it out

PEACE!!!!
