Trivia
Peter Fedorenko wrote a script for the film but it was turned down and writing duties were instead handed over to Neal Marshall Stevens, under the latter's alias of Benjamin Carr. Fedorenko has since alleged that Stevens, along with co-producer Charles Band, stole his ideas for the film.

Just average movie suitable for those who aren't expecting too much

I guess when you watch one of these straight-to-video family movies made by a studio you've never heard of and starring actors you have never seen before (or since) you know not to expect too much. And, gee whiz, aren't there a lot of these movies around?? That being said, Johnny Mysto: Boy Wizard is better than most movies of this ilk and kids should be entertained and adults won't be too bored by it. As well as all the aforementioned unknown actors, this movie actually features a few better known thespians although you'll be wondering how low their careers have sunk to resort to appearing in this. Still, Russ Tamblyn and Michael Ansara do seem to be enjoying themselves. If you make sure not to set your expectations too high, you might too (at least a little).
