Taxi driver Jack Bruno gets more than he bargained for when he picks up teen runaways Sara and Seth. The pair have supernatural powers and are also trying desperately to escape an assassin, Siphon, who has followed them across the universe.
They have travelled to Earth to save their home planet. When their spaceship is captured by the US Government, Jack and the alien kids team up with UFO expert Dr Alex Friedman to get to their spaceship before Siphon.
Race to Witch Mountain has you on the edge of your seat for the whole 98 minutes.
It has brilliant special effects and an interesting sci-fi twist.
Best thing: Great characters, especially "The Rock" who plays Jack Bruno.
Worst thing: Some bits are scary, which I liked but some kids may not expect.
See it with: Older kids. It has some scary bits and a younger audience may not get it.
