(4) 4-6 In this Christmastime-set "be careful what you wish for" comedy, with many allusions to the pop-culture Christmas canon, nerdy seventh grader Nick has a crush on an unobtainable beauty. He's propelled to an alternate life of teen stardom by his birthday wish. Nick's eventual realization that his values are skewed and his scramble back to the real world compensate for some shallow characterizations.
