- In Las Vegas, the regenerated ex-con Jack Bruno works as taxi driver. During an UFO Convention at Planet Hollywood, the skeptical Jack picks up Dr. Alex Friedman, who will present a scientific lecture in the event. Then he is pressed by two henchmen of his former boss, the criminal Wolff, that wants to talk to him, but Jack does not want to return to the crime life. Jack fights and gets rid of them; out of the blue, he finds two teenagers on the backseat of his cab. They tell that they are siblings, Sara and Seth, and they need to travel to a location outside Las Vegas in the middle of nowhere. Meanwhile the government finds a spacecraft that crashed nearby Las Vegas and is chasing the two aliens; after the investigation of the men of Major Henry Burke, they discover that the two siblings are the aliens. Jack Bruno, Sara and Seth are chased by Henry Burke's team and by the "Syphon", a killer from outer space that has been sent to kill them by the military of their planet that want to invade Earth. Sara and Seth explain that they traveled to Earth to collect scientific data of an experiment and save Earth from invasion, but they need to return immediately to their planet. Jack teams up with Dr. Alex to retrieve their spacecraft in a secret base in the Witch Mountain.
- A Las Vegas cabbie enlists the help of a UFO expert to protect two siblings with paranormal powers from the clutches of an organization that wants to use the kids for their nefarious plans.
- I like Dwayne Johnson's work(even his kid friendly stuff such as Game Plan) and since watching him steal the show from Steve Carell on Get Smart, I always wanted him to go back to making good PG-13 or heck even R-rated action movies, so I'm proud to say that we get a bit of that "action"-Dwayne in RtWM. A remake of 70's movie that I never saw. It's kinda fun, something along the lines of a typical sci-fi conspiracy movie with a dash of what could be considered a G-rated version of Predator. So we get Jack Bruno, a taxi driver, frustrated by his work that consists of picking up sci-fi geeks in Vegas, while being harassed by his former employer's henchmen, until he picks up two mysterious kids who appear out of nowhere, they sound weird, they act weird and even more troubling an evil organization is after them, which is apparently some sort of spin-off of the Department of Homeland Security who want to take in these kids. And they are evil, why exactly? I have no clue, the writers forgot to give us any indication as why the movie's main villains do what they do, apart from general vagueness of it all and an eye-rolling random and out-of-context mention of The Patriot Act.<br/><br/>Heck, the alien stalker(which could be mistaken by some as The Predator's baby brother)should've been the true main villain and he has a far more solid and clear motive. Oddly enough, for a movie based on sci-fi, they also pokes fun at the tin-foil mentality of the science fiction and nothing really changes with the main characters, Jack Bruno doesn't go gaga after all is revealed and Carla Gugino's Dr. Alex is amazed but never warped. On the acting side, Dwayne Johnson performs his little act with both physical prowess and some subtle acting, the kids are generally likable, though the little girl who plays Sara got a little on my nerves as she at times was either over-acting or just being over- dramatic. The main villain is well, evil, has an evil stare, it's a completely different contrast to his own henchmen, namely Chris Marquette who looks like he's in a completely different movie, though he gets kudos for his delivery on that particular gun stand-off that seems like it was taken from a John Woo film. My advice: It's worth watching at least once, if you haven't seen it yet, Rent it. It's 90 minutes worth of good family friendly action fun.
- When it comes to live action movies, Disney has never really been king of the mountain. Instead, much of their annual grosses and sporadically acclaimed movies come from the pencil, paper and pixel departments and with Race to Witch Mountain, the third attempt at cashing in on an old, already dated story, the folks over at Cinderella's castle still haven't got it quite right. Chock full of all the usual cliché characters, jokes, half-baked action sequences and overall structure that you by now come to expect from these films, Race to Witch Mountain feels more like a slow tread than a fast action race. There are moments when the accelerator is pushed to enjoyable rates, yes, but unfortunately the majority of what is on offer here is nothing but cookie-cutter, harmless children's Disney movie mediocrity.<br/><br/>For the most part, the movie revolves around two aliens (taking the form of humanoid children) who crash land on Earth in order to retrieve some sort of device that will save their own home planet from dying—or something—as they trek across the landscapes of Nevada evading the authorities in the back of an ex-con's taxi cab. Along the way they get involved in elaborate car chases, befriend canines and generally upset their taxi driver (The Rock) who is the tough, but lovable adult for the children to latch onto—you know the deal by now. Then there's the third party that's hunting them down; bounty hunters of some kind from the alien planet who represent the military side of things, and therefore just want to invade Earth and be done with their own dying planet.<br/><br/>To say that the general premise and overall narrative flowing throughout Race to Witch Mountain is predictable, overdone and formulaic would be something of an understatement. When it comes to science-fiction, this kind of thing has been done to death, and it certainly doesn't help that this is the third instalment of the exact same story. Sure enough, there are details here that differ from previous instalments, but this still doesn't rescue the film from being one big derivative pastiche of illogical and largely mundane plotting. Of course, being aimed at a younger audience, such things will likely go amiss in amongst all the kitsch and glow of the movie's fantastical façade, so you can't complain too much. For the most part, children will no doubt be less disgruntled than their adult counterparts, but this doesn't mean they'll be adding this to their Christmas DVD list either.<br/><br/>Rather, Race to Witch Mountain is a sporadically entertaining, but overly safe and forgettable experience. Indeed, if it wasn't for Dwayne Johnson's occasionally charismatic performance and the surreal portrayals by the kids, the movie would undoubtedly be one big mess of undercooked clichés and derailments. The action is the movie's second saving grace, although around half of such instances fall flat on their face—it's the other half that provide some ample distraction here and there that aren't solely focused on catching the younger audience's attention every now and then. Overall however, this instalment of what was already a rather mediocre example of Disney's live-action aesthetic is just as tepid as one might expect. For what it's worth, all the sci-fi glitter and dazzle will no doubt engage the children on a base level, but everyone else should stay clear.<br/><br/><ul><li>A review by Jamie Robert Ward (http://www.invocus.net)</li></ul>
- Strikes a deft balance of chase-movie suspense and wisecracking humor, with a few slam-bang action setpieces that would shame the makers of more allegedly grown-up genre fare.
- Las Vegas cabbie Jack Bruno (<a href="/name/nm0425005/">Dwayne Johnson</a>) finds himself stuck with two teenaged siblings—Sara (<a href="/name/nm1455681/">AnnaSophia Robb</a>) and Seth (<a href="/name/nm1573253/">Alexander Ludwig</a>)—who claim to be aliens running from the "Siphon" (<a href="/name/nm0940430/">Tom Woodruff Jr.</a>), an assassin from outer space sent to kill them. They are also being pursued by Major Henry Burke (<a href="/name/nm0001354/">Ciarán Hinds</a>) of the U.S. Defense Department. The only way Jack can think of aiding the two aliens is to ask for help from Dr Alex Friedman (<a href="/name/nm0001303/">Carla Gugino</a>), a scientist who is presenting a lecture to a UFO Convention at Planet Hollywood. Together, the four of them race to Witch Mountain where their spacecraft is secretly parked. Race to Witch Mountain is being billed as a "modern re-imaging" of <a href="/title/tt0072951/">Escape to Witch Mountain (1975)</a> (1975), which was based on the 1968 novel Escape to Witch Mountain by American science fiction writer Alexander Key. The story was re-adapted for this movie by American screenwriter Mark Bomback. Seth can vary his molecular density allowing him to pass through solid objects. Sara can read minds and move objects by telekinetic force. The original actors who played Tony (<a href="/name/nm0252055/">Ike Eisenmann</a>) and Tia (<a href="/name/nm0001668/">Kim Richards</a>) in Escape to Witch Mountain have cameos. Eisenmann plays a sheriff, and Richards appears as a waitress at Ray's, a roadhouse in Stony Creek. a5c7b9f00b
