I really enjoyed this film and it's makes you wish you got candles on your 16 birthday that you could make wishes. I think it's a must see Disney film I enjoyed Debby Ryan acting in the film and found her funny to watch. Rate this a great film.
Another Disney made for TV movie...trying to promote its' young stars. The actress this time is Debbie Ryan..who is apple fresh and glowing..and fairly talented too. She has been on another of Disneys' TV shows.."The Suite Life On Deck"..and now she gets a shot at becoming a major Disney star. The movie is typical Disney fare..the main character is faced with a major problem..seeks to find a way to fix it..and somehow manages to mess things up...because she was too greedy and wanted to be someone other than who she was. She then gets a second chance to fix things back to normal..and finally, she does...learning a lesson in the process. All is saved and everyone goes home happy. It is predictable as all things Disney are when it comes to movies..but kids should enjoy it..especially pre teen and teen girls. Fairy tales do come true...and while real life is not quite like this...it is fine family fare. The only thing I had a problem with is that I wish they would stop stereo-typing the characters so much. :)
16 wishes is a light comedy with a predictable story but a feel good plot overall. The performances were good as well and the movie entertaining till the very ending. So five out of ten.
For every 2006 kid that usually switched on Disney channel, this is THE childhood movie.
I remember them replaying it usually and I've always watched it because of Debby Ryan , because I started missing Jessie i little bit too much.
The story has an interesting point. Kind of stolen from their original cartoons such as Snow White and Cinderella.
The acting is on top for a kids movie from the 2000s'
The idea of having your 16 wishes throughout a whole day of adventures then suddenly ending up being 21 doesn't really add up to me much ,but I guess it still works ,since it shows how good it is to be a child.
