I love the Power Glove!! It's so bad!!

If that line just made you giggle, then you know what movie I just saw. Yup, it's The Wizard. It's been over ten years since I last saw it, so I decided to download it. It's actually pretty hard to find an active torrent of this movie.

Okey, time for a little review. The story is about a little boy named Jimmy. Jimmy suffered from a huge trauma and kinda lives in his own little world. For some strange reason he always tries to run away to California. His brother Corry decides to run away with him. During their travel they meet a girl named Haly and challenge her to a game of Double Dragon. It's then they find out that Jimmy is actually a gaming genius. Pretty mediocre story but hey, it's a family movie.

Okey, so now enter Jimmy's rival: Lucas Barton. I just want to kick his ass, what a pompous prick.



That's him. Don't you just want to hit him? I want to take that Power Glove and just ramm it up his ass!!!! They decide to enter a gaming tournament, father travels aroud the country to find them bladie bla. We have seen thousends of those movies.

So, Gino, if the story sucks and the characters suck too, why do you like the movie? Well, it shows the glory days of arcades and the NES. Sometimes I wish I could have been there in the 8-bit era, I was only 3 years old at the time. This movies showcases a lot of great games: Zelda, Metroid, MegaMan 2, Ninja Gaiden. All timeless classics!!! *sigh* The good old days. It was fun to watch it again. Hope I can fix my NES again so it works properly. That's about it, I'm going to browse for a Power Glove XD
