Where should I start with this one well I can tell you what its about. The movie tells the story of a young girl named Abby(SUITE LIFE ON DECKS DEBBIE RYAN)who is celebrating her 16th birthday. One day a strange woman comes into her life and some strange stuff start happening. She gives her magic candles that will make all her dreams come true from her wish list that Abby made. Every wish works for an hour but when its midnight all her wishes are permanent. So when she wishes to be treated like a grownup she ends up as a 22 year old and of course she tries to change her wishes but is it too late.The whole film is like 13 going on 30 as the lead actress is kinda like Christa B Allen. Its so pointless and rather weird from time to time.If you like movies that makes all your wishes come true but you sometimes have to be careful with what you wish for then be my guest.

Disney Channel goes back to it's simple roots!!! well kinda.Girl has 16 wishes on birthday, wishes for stuff, wishes go wrong,she realizes she was selfish blah blah blah, you know the rest. Not the most original, but still.This movie reminds me of all those 90s and early 2000 movies I loved as a kid. No singing or dancing or Hollywood or kid wanting to be famous or anything. Not a musical, not a movie with pointless jokes, just a really nice family movie, the kind we all miss. Well, Debby Ryan sings a song at the end, but that's it. And it was actually pretty good.By far one of the better Disney channel movies to come out in a while. If they continue with this stuff, good things will happen. Maybe the age of Hollywood crazed kids is finished. Maybe there's still hope.Maybe.

I saw 16 wishes without any expectations. It was just a typical day for me to watch random movies that were on. I started watching and on the beginning, it was kinda cheesy. The main girl basically wants what all the average teenage girls do - Privacy,popularity,being independent. etc. This movie was not very creative. The story line is just too familiar. I can't even mention how many more movies have the similar plot- almost exact actually. The scenarios always goes like this- The character wants something more and or something to change in their life. They get a chance to make a wish whether from a fairy or genie etc. It goes all perfect then something goes terribly wrong.. Then they realize they want their old life back. In the end, they basically appreciate everything they originally had. This movie was funny and enjoyable though. The acting was good except for the main girl's parents. I give this movie 6 stars for some really good acting and a funny plot.This is a pretty good film, but not if you're in a mood for something unpredictable and realistic.

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. :)
