Review of The Wizard

The Wizard (1989)
7/10
Not just about video games
18 January 2019
If you remove the video game subplot from the equation, you actually come away with a pretty sweet little film about familial relationships after a tragic accident. While watching this again as an adult, instead of through the lens of a kid, I actually saw a fascinating take of the troubled bonds between a father and his "hooligan" teenage son and then also an older brother and younger brother. For something that claims to be about Super Mario Bros., this movie actually has a lot of depth.
