Wow! Such a good movie.

A bit overrated, but still an amazing film

Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.

I saw this movie in Cedar Rapids, IA in about 1969. It had a lasting impact remembering it since I was three. Since posting I have found that the Xerox company made it and you can find it at some libraries in the USA ---- ----Spoiler Warning ------- what I remember about TWM is two kids that are friends climb into a tall rocket type capsule that is the wishing machine. They have great voyages and fantastic adventures and leave it to a normal life only to return back to it for more adventures later. Perfect for kids about my age at the time (three/four). Check it out if you find it, I think it is a masterpiece and very relevant to the cold war.
