IMDb review: Now if anybody is thinking that Disney studios got the rights to remake the famous Twentieth Century Fox classic that starred Tyrone Power, put those thoughts aside. This film is about yet another Disney Channel teenager whose inquiry into his roots for his high school heritage day leads to all kinds of problems. The protagonist has the decidedly unethnic last name of Johnson. As far as he knows, his family hails from Cleveland. He doesn't know that his maternal grandfather is the head of Emerald Isle potato chips and further that he's a leprechaun~which makes Mom one, too, and Ryan a mixed breed that can be volatile. When his lucky coin that he's had since he was a child is stolen by a bad leprechaun, it's time to get in touch with his grandfather and get the coin back. One similarity with the 1948 classic is that a leading actor plays an odd version of a leprechaun in both films. Cecil Kellaway got an Academy Award nomination in the older film. Here, Henry Gibson plays the leprechaun potato chip tycoon who requires those in his factory to speak with an Irish brogue. Oh my! YouTube has the movie! Here's Part 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7AidBmdsJ-U When I arrived, there were no answers posted. Y!A wouldn't let me post, so I ended up several answers down. Oh well...
