An idiotic Italian-produced kiddie film shot in Miami about a boy, Venantini (Al Haddin), who works in a junk store. One day he is polishing an old oil lamp when a genie (Pedersoli) appears, telling Venantini he can grant any wish. Venantini's wishes soon have him in trouble with the cops,
the CIA, and the mob. It's unlikely that kids will be able to tolerate this tedious, blatantly manipulative film. Pedersoli is best known for his appearances in the TRINITY films of the '60s, and he is the best thing here, but that's not enough to recommend it.
