The Luck of the Irish

Teenager Kyle has always relied on his pot o’ gold charm to bring him luck. But when he loses the charm, he learns the truth about his background—he’s actually part leprechaun! Now he’s in a race against time to defeat the charm-thief before he gains control of all the leprechauns.

MPAA Rating: Not rated, but ok for all ages.

Runtime: 1 hr. 26 mins.

Details: Directed by Paul Hoen and written by Andrew Price and Mark Edens, this movie stars Ryan Merriman, Henry Gibson, Alexis Lopez, Marita Geraghty, and Glenndon Chatman. Premiered on Disney Channel March 9, 2001; released on VHS Nov. 11, 2003.

Why It’s Just as Good as a Pot of Gold: It’s just good, clean Disney fun, with a bit o’ the Irish thrown in for good luck. And it reminds us that sometimes we need to make our own luck.
