    Totally Shocked

    by Superjay

    I had no intentions to see this movie. From the previews it looked like another failed attempt by the Mouse to remake a classic and the previews did not help their plight. But my nephew and niece desperately wanted to see it so I took them to a matinee.

    OMG! Completely surprised!! It is a definite must see for families. There's the right amount of action, drama, and comedy to make kids laugh and adults smile at how their children love a movie that wont warp their tiny little brains. Very reminiscent of the more whole some (i.e cat from outer space) action films that Disney used to do before he passed. Some people may poo poo this because of one reason or another, but so what ! it's good family fun and I will be adding it to my DVD collection when it comes out. There are a couple of minor complaints from me as far as the movie not tying up some loose ends at the end (redundant). But if your taking your kids they wont notice. Good Job Mouse I give you an A- for Race to Witch Mountain.

    MUST SEE

    by usagrl

    I highly highly highly recommend the movie for everyone (well maybe not anyone under 3/4 YOA) It had tons of excitement, laughter and all around a great story line. I have to admit I had two reasons for wanting to see the movie. I remember seeing Escape to Witch Mountain as a kid and really liking it. Then top it off the "The Rock" Dwayne Johnson was in it and I think him being in films is always a great addition. :) I will not ruin the movie by telling you the whole story, but just by telling you that if you like ET, or Escape to Witch Mountain as a kid, Transformers now, or any action packed Movie or even any Disney Movie you will love this.

    Action packed from the time it started, all the way to the end.
    Very entertaining for small kids to adults.
    Worth your money and time.
