.com Richie Rich may be the richest kid in the world, yet it's Christmas and the kind-hearted lad wants to share his wealth with a group of orphan boys. Until, that is, his greedy cousin Reggie Van Dough sabotages his gift-giving plans by running Richie's sleigh into a ravine. Unaware of Reggie's evil deed, the town turns against Richie, who soon wishes that he'd never been born. Unfortunately, his wish is granted and, like George Bailey, Richie gets a taste of what life is like without himself in the picture. It's a world turned upside-down with egomaniacal Reggie calling the shots, bullying the police and renaming the town Reggieville. Only Professor Keenbean's wishing machine could set things right, but time is running out--the machine loses all its wishing power at the stroke of midnight on Christmas Eve. This madcap misadventure, with a nod to film classics It's a Wonderful Life and Back to the Future (note the time-space continuum), never pretends to achieve the greatness of such predecessors. Instead, the spirited family romp dishes up enough slapstick gaffes, action-packed chases, and over-the-top gizmos to leave audiences sufficiently charmed. The cast seems to relish the script's fast-moving silliness as well. David Gallagher (Seventh Heaven) as Richie is more colorful and unrestrained than Macaulay Culkin in the 1994 prequel. And although Jake Richardson's role as mean-spirited Reggie is so forced as to become tiresome, Keene Curtis is sensational as Richie's personal valet, Cadbury. This is one of (executive producer) Haim Saban's finer moments; the film abounds with Christmas cheer. --Lynn Gibson

I love good quality family entertainment
I love good quality family entertainment. This movie first appeared as a television special a while back and I was so glad when it came out as a DVD. This is different from the motion picture film starring Macaulay Culkin that came out, but David Galagher carries the story well. The kids are beautiful to look at who star in this film, the effects are not really top flight, but convincing enough and still it is a good story worth watching that I find uplifting especially at the holiday season. I watch it every year as the holiday season approaches and look forward to pull it out of my library each year during the holiday season. This is truly great for young kids; full of magic and a good story.

A very silly movie. When Richie accidentally wrecks a sleigh full of toys for the needy children, he wishes he'd never been born. When his wish is granted, he's caught in the middle of an upside down world where nothing is how he remembers, and no one remembers him. Now it's a race to get back to his former life and stop his cousin, Reggie, from ruining Christmas. Unless you're 6 years old, I wouldn't waste my time.
