Race to Witch Mountain
In a story that looks more exciting and powerful, as he spoke of a man named Jack Bruno, a taxi driver in Las Vegas. Jack takes an old adventure when he meets Sarah and Seth, two young men who live outside the earth and possess supernatural powers. Jack discovers that eventually he has to get the help of an UFO expert to protect both young men from the clutches of the organization that wants to use children for many destructive plans.

While it's hardly genre-changing, this is a nice dose of fun, family entertainment.

I think most kids and certainly most adults are going to find themselves bored.

A reasonably satisfying family film that updates things while staying true to the adventurous, sci-fi spirit of the originals.

Race to Witch Mountain is pretty standard kiddie fare: Cute, precocious children are protected by a world-weary, wisecracking father figure and one-liners abound.

While the shootouts and sprinting manage to entertain in a decidedly PG fashion, Fickman's little touches stuffed into the corners of the frame lend Race the personality it dearly needs.

It's pacy all right, but glib and uninvolving for grown-ups, though perhaps furnished with enough in the way of spaceships, lasers and digital explosions to pacify undemanding little 'uns of an afternoon.

Boring and unoriginal, this new version might have some fancy visuals and a loud soundtrack but they're just a smokescreen for how boring and lifeless the film is.

The planet-hopping children have special talents -- telekinesis, telepathy etc. -- although it is the high-wattage lovability of Mr. Rock that's the real superpower on display here.

The movie has Johnson, who lifts the script above its conventional cat-and-mouse stratagems with his buoyant wiseacre timing.

Race to Witch Mountain is the first kids' film in ages to have action beats that measure up to Hollywood's grownup action fare.

Everything about this "Race" comes off as a cheap also-ran, with little of that ol' Disney magic anywhere to be found.
