THE PLOT:
In a family of Wizards things can get messy when one tries to get out of something they don't want to do.
When the middle child Alex tries to use a spell to go to a party by transporting a piece of the family resturant cross town
so he won't leave and leave at the same time leaves her stuck on the family vacation.
But when she arrives she meets a handsome young man that Theresa doesn't trust and doesn't allow Alex to
meet with him which causes Alex to try to use a spell with the family wand which leads to more trouble when Alex is caught
and she makes a wish out of anger that Theresa and Jerry never met.
Now with all the magical items gone and time is running out for the Russo family the kids take a dangerous
trip to find the one thing that can undo Alex's wish, the Stone of Dreams. But the quest might be more deadly then anything
they've encountered before.
CHRISTOPHER'S OPINION:
Being a huge fan of the show I am also a big fan of the movie. They upped the effects, the story is
even more complex. I love the family interaction. The story works. Selena Gomez should have gotten an Emmy
or something for her acting, she was wonderful. There was a part in the movie that made me actually cry and I don't
cry for a movie easily. I give it...
10 OUT of 10 STARS
WAYNE'S OPINION:
Now don't get me wrong I am a fan of Wizards as well. I even love this movie and I agree with Chris
on everything he said however there is something about Wizards I do not like. The whole rule that only one member of
the family gets to keep his or her powers. That seems unrealistic to me. The million dollar question in that is
why? Why must only one member of each wizard family keep their powers and who made up that rule? But still, a
good movie and I give it...
9 STARS
ON THE POSITIVE SIDE (+ HITS):
+ STORY (The story works for the most part)
+ EFFECTS (Very impressive effects)
+ CAST (The entire cast does a wonderful job.)
+ SELENA GOMEZ (She is a major star and deserves an Emmy for this role)
ON THE NEGATIVE SIDE (- MISSES):
- UNREALISTIC (Wayne feels that the whole only one member of a wizard family gets to keep their powers is
wrong and unrealistic.)
...AND FINALLY...
- NOT FOR EVERYONE (If you aren't a fan of the TV show then you most likely won't like the movie.)
