Disney Slams SUVs into Children’s Faces

The brand new reboot of the Disney ’s Witch Mountain series is packed with CG gist , The Rock , UFOs , shiny lights . . . oh and Master Chief . Or was that Boba Fett ? Either way they ’ve managed to jampack a pathetic amount of crap into this kiddie movie that was once a cherished memory of mine . While I actively support Dwayne Johnson ’s continue ability to get work , I ’m take a really toilsome clip accepting the fact that the foreign shaver stranded on Earth can take the air through walls and cease a SUV with their tiny prepubescent bodies ( and nary a harmonica).Race To Witch Mountain has a similar plot to the Mountains of its past times . A couple of kids with psychokinesis are run aground on the planet and entreat a kindly cab equipment driver ( Dwayne Johnson ) to get them back to Witch Mountain where their starship is before the malefic governance can kidnap them and use their great power for wickedness . But seemingly that was n’t good enough this year so they added Master Chief to trace down and obliterate the short tykes with his Texas Chainsaw Massacre sounding gun . Do n’t get me awry , I know kiddie scifi movies . Most of the time they ’re light handed sport that stretches the boundary of resourcefulness ( like in Flight of the Navigator and the one where Kirk Cameron is a robot and his dad is Alan Thick ) . But this franchise reboot is such a slick version of a classic it ’s like if you give The Apple Dumpling Gang automatic assault rifle and sent them out on an anti - terror commission . Plus it has to be say again : They spend all that money and not a individual freaking harmonica puppet dance ? kidskin these day . Here ’s some old - schooltime Witch Mountain harmonica action :
