October 9, 2009I started watching Race to Witxh Mountain with the highest of expectations. Carla Gugino, The Rock, and Annasophia Robb are all among my favorite actors in Hollywood, and the premise of the movie seemed like it would provide lots of opportunities for cool action sequences and hum...( read more)

August 26, 2009Race to Witch Mountain starring Dwayne Johnson is a good remake from Disney. It is a good family friendly film with some good scenes. A lot of it is unbelievable and a bit much but cute non the less.

August 11, 2009Was fun and the kids enjoyed it. I think i expected more considering the cast. The kids in this are both going to be good actors at the rate they are going and well it had the Rock.

November 3, 2009After I saw the other sci-fi movies, "Race to the Witch Mountain" isn't that great. I like the idea, but it isn't enough to be a box office. Sorry, Annasophia.

Bears all the signs of having been composed by an inferior race of alien screenwriters from the Hackulon System. full review

A.O. Scott, The New York Times
Modest and diverting, rough and bland, with some good (if not quite Bette Davis caliber) actors and so-so special effects. full review

Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal
Everything's a familiar plug-in from contemporary pop culture, every new development is brisk, bloodless and banal. full review

Colin Covert, The Minneapolis Star Tribune
Race to Witch Mountain is a satisfying snack of a family adventure. It doesn't condescend to youngsters or shortchange adults. full review

Claudia Puig, USA Today
Mediocre family fare that's simply not that much fun. full review

Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times
Given enough popcorn, kids should find it diverting; adults may be less than enthralled. full review

Since Seth and Sara only appropriated the bodies of human teenagers, I was left with a couple of questions. full review

March 22, 2009Loved it! Very Good Movie!
I've loved watching the Witch Mountain movies when i was a kid, so I knew I'd love this one too. I expected these kids names to be Tony & Tia also...but they weren't...but that's ok. at least the ship was still the same :) but still they have blond hair & blue eyes like Tony & Tia did. and the Origional Tony & Tia portrayers are in this movie too. If you remember what they look like, you'll notice them when they appear in this movie. :)
they are Ike Eisenmann and Kim Richards. -
March 19, 2009This film turned out to be much better than i anticipated. With the kids going stir crazy during the school holidays, a movie seemed worth. I've always liked Dwayne Johnson and here, he proved again, to be as charming as ever.
The plot is simple enough - two aliens children land on earth in the hopes of retrieving scientific information that can save Earth from being tsken over by their alien race. They get into our hero's cab and the rest is an adventure which includes car chases, some cute comedy, a bunch of humans dressed up as humans, a dog and one predator-like soldier.
In short, it's a fun ride, and kids are sure to love every minute of ot. . Its an entertaining ride all the same. Buckle up and enjoy . Alexander Ludwig , again rob our hearts too ! great perfomance from him... -

March 13, 2009Disney attempts to remake its own of the 1975 orginal movie based on the novels by Alexander Key. And this one stars none other then Dwayne Johnson aka "The Rock" and Carla Gugino. AnnaSophia Robb takes over the role of Tina,who was played in the original by Kim Richards(who by the way makes a cameo appearance in this remake,who was in the original "Return to Witch Mountain" movie back in 1975). Only this time around the CGI effects and much more ehanced here.
