Wish Upon a Star 2018 US

Went into watching this expecting it to be rather foolish. It ended up being a fun movie that is still serious and draws you into the emotions of the story.

I like it

This movie has a great cast and a quirky magical twist that changes the lives of two sisters forever as they get to live as each other for a few days and become intimately aware of who they really are. The pace is perfect and the plot entertaining enough to hold one's interest throughout the movie.

I first knew about this movie from a friend's recommendation. I love Grey's Anatomy and Izzie is my favorite in it so I wanted to watch Katherine Heigl's previous work. I must say that I was pleasantly surprised by it. While the story is undoubtedly cliched, the girls' performances were great.I liked Danielle Harris in this movie. She's funny and cute. She did both Hayley and Alexia-as-Hayley very well, especially the latter. That table dance at the cafeteria was hilarious! I do think that Katherine stole the movie, however. She had the harder job of playing a shy, insecure little girl trapped in a tall, gorgeous body but she did a beautiful job of it. Her every shy smile and excited squeal leaves us in no doubt that it is actually Hayley in Alexia's body. I especially loved the part when they were taking the Princesses' pictures for the paper and she was making these outrageous faces. I forgot how funny Katherine can be. It really makes me think her comedic talents are being underused in her show, but that's another story.A small piece of trivia: Danielle Harris played the younger sister but she is actually a year-and-a-half older that Katherine Heigl. It made sense to reverse the girls' roles. Katherine is not only at least a foot taller than Danielle, she is also has the quintessential 'popular girl' look. Besides, since they were supposed to have switched bodies, each of them were playing their own age for most of the movie anyway. I think the girls were perfectly cast.The supporting cast were also great. I especially enjoyed the performance of the actress who played their mother. She played her part as a mother torn between her motherly instincts and 'the experiment' convincingly. The rest of the cast really didn't have enough scenes to develop their characters but that's okay since the movie was about the sisters anyway. They did a good enough job given what little material they had.Too bad they don't make wholesome movies like this anymore. We need more good, clean, funny movies like this.

I wanted to give this movie five stars, but held back. The movie itself has a great plot, with wonderful acting from two young starlets just starting out on their rise to famedom. The supporting cast had a few good characters and I loved the interaction between the parents and the principal. The movie itself is heartwarming with good, clean fun. Hollywood could do with making more movies like this one rather than some of their doom and gloom movies they've oozed out over the years. This is the sort of movie I would like for my own daughters to watch.I would recommend this movie as a great family night movie or as a stand-alone for when you are looking to amuse yourself and want to sit back, smile, laugh a little and remember what it was like to be young.

Movie skipped

Great film. Very quick delivery

I remember watching this film when I about 13/14 and I loved it. Its along the lines of freaky friday but with sister rivalry and adhorrence, their actions to spite the other one has major comical outcomes.If you enjoy a good cheesey chick-flick then this is deffinitely one to watch. Once a good film always a good film...its just killing me I don't have a multi-region DVD player. BRING IT OUT ON REGION 2 PLEASE!!!!Enjoy...

Danielle Harris is great in this film.

Great old movie

Très déçue car le dvd devait être en anglais et français, hors il est en anglais avec sous titre espagnol !
