Review of The Wizard (1989) by Andy B — 01 Jul 2015
It's a runaway's paradise film starring none other than Fred Savage ( The Wonder Years ) in a film dedicated to the Nintendo Entertainment System, mostly known as the NES. His brother Jimmy has the gift of getting high scores in video games, so during a " breakout " they go on a trek to California to enter themselves in the Video Armageddon.
Their journey includes meeting people and getting away from people, they're on a mission folks. This was actually Nintendo revealing their newest game Super Mario 3 at the time this movie was in theaters.
It's a real good family movie that has good heart in it as well, not just total gamers on cloud nine. It has a great cast like Beau Bridges, Christian Slater, Luke Edwards and Jenny Lewis. Come on folks it's a Nintendo game, no doubt thee first Nintendo movie.
It will keep you entertained and a blast from the past..
