Three Wishes | Year: 1995 Classification: Feature Film Family Directed: - Martha Coolidge Actors/Actresses: - Patrick Swayze - Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio View your world in a new light The movie takes a look at the average social environment, the need for people to conform. When Jack enters the picture, in his non-conformist style, I was certain there would be trouble. Jack shows how you can exist in society and still be yourself. Jack's true meaning wasn't revealed until the end and it was a wonderful reminder that Jacks exist everywhere. We just need to open ourselves to the lessons. I'd love to see more movies like this Fabulous I have loved this movie for so long. Saw it on tv this am and decided to find it for my own collection. Here we are.... This is one FABULOUS movie. Patrick Swayze really shows his true talent. Buy I say, buy it you must. It is one for the collectors Fails to deliver This film has been billed as a "touching", "family" film. I beg to differ. I bought the film mainly because it has a couple of my favorite performers: Patrick Swayze and Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio. They both did a fine job in this film, but it just wasn't enough. What I failed to notice when I bought this movie was the HBO logo on the back of the box. When I popped the DVD into my player and the HBO logo came up on the screen I knew I was sunk. I have never yet seen an HBO film that I thought was worth watching. This was no exception. In my humble opinion HBO should have never gotten into the movie business. Twenty minutes into the film I was asking myself: "Does this movie have a point?". Thirty minutes, same question. An hour later, same question. FINALLY, at the end of the movie, the point of the film comes out and by that time I'm just glad it's over. To those who say this is a family film for kids, I would dearly love to do the following science experiment: get a diverse cross section of a hundred kids and put 'em in a room and start up this film. By the end of the film measure how many are still in the room (and awake). Anybody want to place some bets? There are plenty of excellent, "feel good" movies out there. This sadly is not one of them unless, perhaps, you are a junky of the genre. Best to rent before buying, or give a miss altogether.
