a5c7b9f00b 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. In Las Vegas, the regenerated ex-con Jack Bruno workstaxi 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&#39;s team and by the &quot;Syphon&quot;, 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. Race to Witch Mountain (2009) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1075417/<br/><br/>reviewed by Jay Rothermel<br/><br/>Race to Witch Mountain is the latest opportunity for &quot;tween&quot; kids to drag their &quot;twifty&quot; grandparents to the multiplex Walpurgisnacht and shovel some more money into Disney&#39;s satanic furnace.<br/><br/>The plot: Earth must be saved by blonde Aryan alien overlord teenagers with help of kindly American he-man.<br/><br/>Dwayne Johnson in Race to Witch Mountain is Disney&#39;s answer to Vin Diesel or a young Harrison Ford. He is also reminiscent, in his skills and range, of Joel McCrea: a man who looks good whethera cowboy or a playboy. He is fit, handsome, self-deprecating, and has a movie star&#39;s faultless teeth. The action and light comedy demands of Race to Witch Mountain and previously Game Plan (2007) seem to fit him better than Rundown (2003) or Walking Tall (2004), two obscenely humorless and over-determined action vehicles from earlier in his career. <br/><br/>Not that Race to Witch Mountain isn&#39;t &quot;over-determined.&quot; But its set-up and the early &quot;meet cute&quot; moments between male and female leads (Johnson and Carla Gugino) are calmly and clearly handled in a matter of minutes.<br/><br/>Seems an interstellar race of very white Anglo aliens have turned their home world into a polluted dump. The most socially conscious have, in experiments conducted on earth, found a way to turn things around. Sadly, the rulers of this distant world have decided to colonize earth rather than clean up their own mess. Two alien teens are all that stands -the saying goes - in their way.<br/><br/>Race to Witch Mountain is the supreme Whitley Strieber/Art Bell/UFO/secret government movie. In fact, Strieber makes a cameo appearance, just to show what a good sport he isthe last twenty years of his life are sent-up for Big Studio Hollywood derision. The movie&#39;s opening credits are a kitchen sink montage of every piece of UFO folklore in the last 60 years. Mission to Mars (2000) and Signs (2002) are sanctimonious pikers when compared to this hymn to the manias of pseudo-science.<br/><br/>Before James Randi and Michael Shermer have aneurisms, rest assured Race to Witch Mountain bears the same relation to John Mack/Budd Hopkins la-la landMichael Buble does to the American Songbook: it is aesthetic mountaintop removal of the most primitive sort.<br/><br/>The political stance of Race of Witch Mountain is New Age Democrat: a multi-racial hero not unlike Barrack Obama (and Dwayne Johnson is the most &quot;not unlike Barrack Obama&quot; actor working today) clobbers the sinister Bush/McCain Patriot Act/black helicopter crowd. Additional theses: only saviors can save polluted planets; yellow cab drivers are losers; heroes drive a 1968 Mustang GT 390 Fastback and villains use fleets of black SUVs.<br/><br/>Said villains all look like they&#39;ve just emerged from an Alex Jones version of Men in Black. Their Witch Mountain headquarters: Dick Cheney&#39;s Xanaduimagined on Harry Shearer&#39;s radio hour Le Show.<br/><br/>The bubble in live-action Disney movies (High School Musical 3 (2008), Jonas Brothers: The 3D Concert Experience (2009), Hannah Montana: The Movie (2009)) aimed at our pre-teenagers and usedbattering rams to end resistance to the merchandise the movies spawn, shows no signs of recession. Back in the 1970s movie critics started talking about the Disneyfication of popular culture. Progress since then has been leaping forward: we now enjoy the super-Disneyfication. Or perhaps it is ultra-Disneyfication? <br/><br/>No matter what you call it, rest assured: they come in peace.<br/><br/>_________________________________________<br/><br/>Jay Rothermel lives in Cleveland, Ohio. Race To Witch Mountain meets boxing. With several movies baring the title Witch Mountain and Return to Witch Mountain, this movie completes the Witch Mountain Trilogy. I have not seen the first two in a long time, but this one, I liked. I don&#39;t know if it was the special effects or The Rock, it was energetic and jumping off the edge of my seat kind of movie. I loved the special effects. And I also liked how the director incorporated the storyline to the effects. Congratulations to Disney – with the other two movies, this one outranks. With The Rock leading the cast to Annasophia Robb, they both are great. Are they really going to make another one? What will be the storyline? As farthe movie goes, I would give it a standing ovation with 9 ½ stars. I think Dwayne Johnson has a likable screen presence and is a good choice for an innocuous family entertainment like this. 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 &quot;Siphon&quot; (<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 billeda &quot;modern re-imaging&quot; 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 appearsa waitress at Ray&#39;s, a roadhouse in Stony Creek.
