    I couldn't agree more, when Kazaam had to make that 3 point shot time itself seemed to stop. Amazing film, only equaled by Shaq's video game "Shaq-Fu."

    Entertaining fable for kids, and not at all "dark" ( as some critics said it was) by present day standards and sensibilities.

    When I saw this movie, I was deeply touched. O'Neil's preformance is equal to, if not better than, Marlon Brando's preformance in Godfather. A clever script and well-devised plot lines are central to the movie's success. With great FX, breakthrough acting, and a soaring, anthemic soundtrack that raises the bar for films to come, Kazaam is the single most underrated movie of all time, sure to stand the test of time through decades to come. A must have!… Expand

    This movie is not merely a waste of time; it has also caused me to lose the ability to have children. Shaq should stick to missing freethrows and fouling people, rather than trying to act in any capacity and thus costing people the ability to reproduce.

    Ok, so I can't tell if Ryan, and Connor K. and Jake are being sardonic, but i really hope they are cuz this is just a terrible movie. But, if u love marijuana and stupid funny movies (which i do) this is definitely a 10.

    It's full of special effects that are big on smoke and noise, but short on logic and payoff.

    As for Shaquille O'Neal, given his own three wishes the next time, he should go for a script, a director and an interesting character.

    The plot is hamstrung by trite formulas, and there's too much violence and family tension for very young viewers. Shaquille O'Neal is likable as the title character, though.
