While on vacation, Alex (Selena Gomez) accidentally casts a spell that threatens her family’s existence! Max (Jake T. Austin) tries to keep his parents together while Alex and Justin (David Henrie) use every trick they know as they search for the “Stone of Dreams” to reverse the spell and save their family. Embark on a supernaturally exciting adventure as the Russos, your favorite family of wizards in-training, join together on a quest full of heart-stopping action and hilarious magical mishaps!
Wizards of Waverly Place fans and Wizards newcomers of all ages will both appreciate the story that this film has to tell as it definitely makes you really think about and appreciate your family and your existence while also including the perfect balance of comedy and family drama. What better a film to watch during the holidays than a film about a tropical family vacation filled with magic and adventure? While the plot is not completely original, viewers will still anticipate what will happen next in every scene of this action packed Disney flick which has some very memorable moment and one liners. Best of all, Wizards upholds powerful messages of course, all throughout the film regarding consequences, selflessness, appreciation, and respect. The cast was brilliant and were all used equally, the wardrobe was fabulous, and the production value is high…note that the movie was shot in Puerto Rico! What a lovely sight to see. Overall, the film just might be even better than the show which makes me wonder when the next Wizards film will be released as from the looks of this film, this is only the beginning. Wizards of Waverly Place The Movie is one of the best Disney Channel original films in quite some time and is definitely the perfect gift to give this Christmas.
Bonus Features:
Wiz Pix - The main stars, Jake, David, and Selena introduce viewers to a behind the scenes look at shooting on location in Puerto Rico as well as their favorite moments on set! Personal photos are shared also, so this brings quite a personal touch in the special feature. Viewers also get to meet the windsurfing trainer, the effects coordinator talks about the rocks stunt, the costume designer talks about style for Selena’s character, the props manager gives us a closer look at the magical props, the parrot trainer tells us that 4 parrots are playing the roe of Ruby, Jake has fun with the director of the film, and viewers meet the Spanish speaking crew
Color-Changing Wishing Stone With Clip - For a limited time only, fans get a free color-changing wishing stone with a clip included in the extended edition DVD. The clip comes on the front of a "Wizards in Training Guide To Wishing" sheet that details the colors that the wishing stone turns when you wish for certain things. It's quite a cool keepsake for Wizards fans and a great gift to the fans since there are so many props used for the show, so this makes fans feel that much closer to the wizardry world. Great packaging!
This is definitely the perfect holiday treat for Disney fans so make sure to pick up your copy as soon as possible!
Wizards of Waverly Place The Movie Extended Edition is available now on DVD.
