hiya i'm not sure if this movie was in the 80's but it has been bugging me for ages. i saw this movie when i was younger it was about two brothers one of them is a wizz at computer games, noone can beat him. they decide to take the little brother to compete against a older guy who is a wizz too. and the older guy plays a racing game but the control pad is a glove which he wears and he moves his hand to control the car. i remember bits of this movie! the older brother was the boy from, 'the princess bride and also ' the boy who could fly'

i would like to find out the name of this film could you help me?

Funny, someone else asked this question a couple weeks ago, but that is "The Wizard" from 1989. Fred Savage is the older brother.

Hey, the Wizard!..The second movie I ever saw in a theatre. Wow, the Powerglove..the biggest waste of money I'd ever seen kids spend in long time. My cousin was 19 when that thing came out and I remember he bought it to use with the same game they play in the movie, that racing game. By the end of the day we decided it was such a piece of crap that we were having bionic arm fights with it...Oh how it was to be a kid and have 8 thousand uses for everything, even food. If you want that movie by the way they don't make it anymore..just go to some used movie website or Ebay and you should find one. Just make sure it won't destroy your VCR sweety-thangg.
