   Jul 11, 1997 · Directed by. “A Simple Wish” has assembled all the trinkets and effects necessary for its story, without bothering to tell one. Here are the ingredients for a funny family movie about an incompetent fairy godperson (Martin Short), but there's nothing much to really care about, and characters go off on their own without it much mattering.

   Did a simple wish have a movie?

   • Frankly,the Tale of Two Cities music, written by Lucy Simon, sounded glorious and better than what's on Broadway, and was excellently sung. Actually the music was the best thing about "A Simple Wish." More theater scenes, spread out the witchcraft, and they may have had a film. 0 out of 3 found this helpful. Was this review helpful?

   Is a simple wish a good family movie?

   • Sign in to vote. A Simple Wish isn't a perfect family film, but it is a nice, simple and amusing one. Of course the story is a tad messy and predictable, it's all a bit basic and the script on the weak and cheesy side. But kids will definitely like it, and adults might too.
