The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

Wish Upon A Star tells the story of a young girl(played by Danielle Harris) who is jealous of her sister(Katherine Heigl)who seems to be more popular and outgoing then she is.One night Harris wishes that she could be popular and the next day she swaps bodies with her sister Heigl. Now the two have to find a way to switch back before its too late. So will they reconcile by the end of it all?Overall if you love body swapping films then check out this film. Its very underrated and Katherine Heigl was very young at the time here. Just track it down and see what you think of it.

Alexia Wheaton (Katherine Heigl) is the popular hot girl in school and her sister Hayley (Danielle Harris) is a nerd. They are both in love with jock Kyle Harding. Alexia is the one actually dating him. Hayley is jealous and makes a wish on a shooting star to be Alexia. The next morning, the girls find that they have switched bodies. It's chaos and sibling rivalry. Shy neighbor Simon is confused by the new Haley.It is a little bit funny to note that Danielle Harris is actually older than Katherine Heigl. It's another switched body movie like those Disney kids classics. This one isn't breaking any new ground. The girls are fun and capable of playing both sides well. That's where it helps to have Harris be slightly older than Heigl.

Wish Upon a Star (1996) Katherine Heigl, Danielle Harris, Don Jeffcoat, Scott Wilkinson, Mary Parker Williams, D: Blair Treu. Two backbiting sisters and complete opposites-one the popular and glamorous ditz, the other an ugly duckling wiz-wish under a shooting star to change places, but looks like the switch will take longer to revert back. This cable movie has no surprises and just pales in comparison with its maker, FREAKY FRIDAY, but there's still some fun riding on it. Running Time: 90 minutes and rated PG for some language and mild sensuality. **

Okay... I admit... The only reason I bothered was because of Katherine Heigl. But, once I sat down and watched the film, I really got into it. I mean, Disney is known for doing a lot of movies where teens switch places, and they usually are really bad.. However, this movie turned out really well. What really impressed me, was how well the two girls acted out each other's roles. By the end of the movie, I was clapping by myself in my empty living room. Plus, It had the band Moonpools & Caterpillars perform. Those guys rock! If somehow you get into a situation where you are locked in a padded room, bound and gagged, and forced to watch disney movies for the rest of your life; Watch this movie first, and then kill yourself...
