One of the better Disney Films

An update of an old, beloved Disney film, "Race to Witch Mountain" is smarter than it trusts itself to be. After an excellent setup, the movie becomes bogged down in chase scene after chase scene on its way to its inevitable... Full review

This is and is not a remake of the original Witch Mountain movie. It's more follows the guidelines and then takes off on its own in a more modern twist. If you liked the old one, you will probably still like... Full review
Exciting and fulfilling action for adults (and families, too). Great film!

Hey, don't believe the downers trashing this movie. It's fun. Non-action stop from beginning to the end. Dwayne Johnson, who finally shed his former wrestling nom de lutre, is a much better actor than people are willing to concede. He has... Full review

When the first one came out I wasn't even born. But I saw them on T.V. They were great. Can we say re-imagined not a remake. It was fast paced and non stop action . Some shaky camera work, and some... Full review

I knew this movie would be good once I saw Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson in it. The Rock is one heck of an actor. He's everything Hulk Hogan dreamed he could have been, and all that John Cena aspires to be... Full review

Even at 98 minutes, the movie appears too long and boring.....Besides, the whole idea of saving the earth isn't compelling enough to watch a movie any more.....when we do get to know this, all the suspense and loud, annoying music is a big let down..... ... Full Review
| Aug 06, 2009TheHDRoom
The 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio track compliments the film's chase structure perfectly.....Race to Witch Mountain is a mindless film of marginal quality given an equally marginal Blu-ray Disc treatment.....By declaring Race to Witch Mountain is Bruckheimer for kids you should correctly assume there are some great D-BOX moments in this film.....To give you an idea of how unnecessary these scenes and extensions are, I had forgotten them by the time the "play all" function wrapped up.....If anything the audio mix ...

Dwayne Johnson always amuses me, no matter what his role.....What may be most disconcerting for the Witch Mountain fans is the shifting of Witch Mountain from a place of ultimate refuge to one of antagonism.....In the original two films salvation was found at Witch Mountain in the first.... ...

It's not a horrible movie.....It just isn't that good.....Race to Witch Mountain is tough to dislike.....it's not going to be too exciting for you.....While Johnson isn't the main problem, this "reimagining" of the 1975 kid-aliens-on-the-run movie, Escape to Witch Mountain , is pretty mediocre..... ...

Pure escapism with a strong fantasy element, Race to Witch Mountain boasts some great action sequences....Such a beast is Race to Witch Mountain , a more or less direct remake of 1975's Escape to Witch Mountain .....This is not a thoughtful or deep film by any stretch....The film does sport some good to excellent special effects, certainly head and shoulders above the 1975 iteration.....CGI and other special effects elements look good to spectacular..... ...
