I taped this movie off the TV about 4 years ago and it was a very good movie. I loved the characters, especially Danielle Harris (Hayley Wheaton) and her sister Katherine Heigl (Alexia Wheaton). I loved the whole atomsphere of the movie.
*The Plot* Two teenage girls named Alexia and Hayley, one younger, one older are both a little envious of each other because Alexia is popular and Hayley is smart and decide they like to switch places with each other and they wish on a star that could be each other. They freak out when they realize their wish actually came true though! But they realize that they each have there own unique personalities and at the end they wish to be back in there own bodies again. Does everything go back to normal and they become themselves again? Well, you'll have to watch to find out! ;)
When I taped the movie, I had no idea it was on video and DVD. I would like to get a copy of this movie on either format. It is a funny movie that kids of all ages can enjoy. :)
