I don't think that kids movies should display religous beliefes of any sort, its kind of brainwashing them in a way, a hundred years ago people were getting religion shoved down their throughts but now its aithism, I don't like having any person's oppion enforced upon me and the plot was basically "we have to get here, take us there" so I didn't find any real redeaming value in this movie.
What the hell is this stuff about "there are never guns or violence in Disney films!!" In the original 1975 movie the bad guys were chasing the two kids with.......guns! Ever see The Black Hole?? Laser guns everywhere. The list goes on and on. Producers, directors, and actors LOVE guns...they just don't want people to have any for some psychotic reason...other than their bodyguards!
I think Disney's growing up... Only mothers complaining are liberals who just want something to, Excuse my language, bitch about. You can down my comment, But you know it's true. :)
Agreed with Sixx0809. It's a movie, let's have fun with it. I get so tired of people always bitching about everything and you wonder why we will in such a negative world.
It is not a remake!!!! The idea came from the original movie, but it had more to it than expected. I saw both "Escape to witch mountain" and "Return to Witch Mountain" as it was nothing like this move: Race to witch mountain
I strongly suggest watching this movie as it was great!
By the way that kind of language is not for the computer.
Concerning the movie it was great. I am old enough to have seen the first two movie. It was nice to see the first two actors in it. Tony was the sheriff in Stonney Chreek and Tia was the waitress. The movie was one that I would take my kids to see again.

Um, ok. After seeing this, I don't know anything more than what I already knew. SFX galore? No shit, you can see that from the commercial alone. Lame "review". The only thing you reviewed was the plot.
This movie is good for us and no one's gonna change that. If you don't like it, butt out.
I nearly went to watch Dragonball...but since the birthday girl wants to watch this, okay, I watched it. In the end, I was hyper as ever, claiming its the best movie ever. But...its not even a race...right?
This is actually a remake of an old movie, Escape to Witch Mountain, which is based on a novel by the same title. Disney didn't come up with the name.
i remember the original when i was a little kid. that one had a great story, all about the kids (who gave great performances), very charming. this one looks like generic action crap, more about explosions than story. don't get me wrong, i like explosions, but throw some freakin story in once in a while.
I remember I used to watch the original Witch Mountain all the time growing up, so obviously I'm somewhat skeptical of a remake that relies more on special effects and action sequences than the interaction between the two kids and the adults. Chances are I might wait to go ahead and simply rent this one, thanks for the solid review.
Hmm, is AnnaSophia Robb the new poster girl for Disney now? I remember her in Bridge to Terabithia, which also had a pretty damn disturbing plot twist in it involving her character for a Disney movie (I'm not gonna spoil it, but people who watched it will definitely know what I'm talking about). I kinda like Disney's pushing its boundries now and is incorporating some more "adult" themes into their films. Other than that, this looks like your basic sci-fi action movie, nothing spectacular.
I reckon they really trimmed down the original material to fit it all in a single movie, kinda like what they did to Chronicles of Narnia and The Golden Compass. Especially the latter is a sad example of the whole meaning of the original book just going to waste and making it into a nice and easy little story for the kiddies to read.
Curse the internet for making summaries so available, I hardly ever read any "forced" books in high school :p
The book was alright. I'm sure they did cut out a lot (like how there was the bully beaten by her dad or when Jess talked about how "people bitched to you about colored pencils".
I love crazy action.... but walking tall was so boring and fights were so uncreative I didn't care at that point. When i saw it I stopped paying attention and just made out with a girl I was with at the time... that's how boring that movie was for me.
that girl comment is pointless because depending on how hot the girl is i'd make out with her during The Dark Knight(or one of your fav movies if it's something else) lol
No guns in a disney movie hello fox and the hound the hound's ownert carried a rifle. Also Incredibles had the men carrying machine guns and Pirates of the carribean had rifles stop also putting disney up to a holy child oriented status it's not especially when they love violence death and drama so get it through your heads soccer moms disney .
It's up to you, I said the movie has a weak plot. It's quite bland, but it is entertaining. If you want an answer, it's something you should probably just rent with your little brothers or sisters... that's about it.
I did watch Pirates of the carribean because I heard alot of good things about it and I didnt even know that it was a Disney Movie, when they Movie started I was like "WTF? This is a disney movie?"
I have watched Lion King, but DUDE I was 5-8 back then
...*thinks*.....there's guns in disney movies one that come off the top of my head is "beauty and the beast" the 'villan' (whatever his name was) had a shotgun. disney isnt so innocent. "pirates of the Caribbean" had guns and was borderline violent...to me, this isnt a suprise from disney at all. they're just more open with it now, i suppose...

This movie, in my opinion, kicked ass.
I really hoped you would point out the Star Wars bar scene part where thery're dressed up in the costumes.
I think what Disney was trying to do, was give the audience a movie that adults/young adults would really enjoy.
And since kids want to do what older kids do, they would have positive reaction from the younger viewing audience as well.
