Editorial Reviews
Debby Ryan (Disney’s The Suite Life on Deck) stars with Jean-Luc Bilodeau (Kyle XY) in this spellbinding comedy about what happens when your most outrageous wishes…come outrageously true! Abby Jensen has been dreaming about her “sweet 16” since she was a little girl…but it starts out anything but sweet. Then she receives a box of mysteriously magical birthday candles. And suddenly, Abby’s every wish is instantly granted: the cherry-red sports car, the way-cool clothes, the uber-popularity at school. But when Abby makes a wish that turns her perfect new life totally upside down, she and her best friend Jay have just one chance to make things right – and to learn you have to be careful what you wish for…really, really careful!

This is a very good and funny movie with a heart-warming storyline and a great message. Abby Jensen has been making a secret wish-list for her Sweet 16th Birthday ever since she was a little girl. Her and her best friend, Jay run into a mysterious woman named Celeste. Celeste gives her candles with numbers on them. Everytime she makes a wish, it comes true. Abby makes a wish that everyone treats her like an adult, and it comes true as well, but not the way Abby wanted. She turns 22 and loses all her friends and her parents kick her out. She must figure out the rules of the wishes and tries to become 16 again before midnight, or else the wish becomes permanent. I highly recommend 16 WISHES!!!

I normally don't watch kids movies, but there was nothing on and so, I decided to give it a watch. I actually became a bit glued as the story really caught my attention. It's not a great film, but it's a feel good film. It definitely makes you appreciate what you have.

Girl gets wishes granted, but then regrets them and learns to appreciate her life. It's a pretty old story and has been reused in hundreds of teen girl movies. Still, 16 Wishes isn't a bad retake for the intended audience. It's a bit unrealistic and tough to suspend disbelief during some scenes (like when the girl suddenly becomes an adult). A bit more time with the script would have helped. The better moments are more of a take on Dickens' Christmas Tale. It's certainly not a classic in the genre but should entertain young girls for a while.

A Great Movie
Perhaps not a block buster.
But it is a very fun, heart warming adventure, plays on Cinderella themes, do-over themes, and the old moral; be careful what you wish for. Read more

Good kids movie
Good movie for kids. Good moral to the story. Materialism isn't everything. Misunderstandings need to be dealt with or they may have negative consequences in the future.

This video is very much one for the Tweens.
In a Disney-Channel/Nickelodeon sort of way it is more 'Good' than 'OKay'. Read more
