Race to Witch Mountain is a surprisingly fun and enjoyable remake of the classic "Escape to Witch Mountain"...a movie one year older than I. Some plot elements have been changed in a manner to "update" the film for modern audiences, and to give it more "meaning" rather than a couple kids on a random adventure.
A nice note, though, is that this is an action adventure film that a parent can comfortably allow their children to watch with little to know worries of overt violence. Scenes where traditionally someone would die in most films of this nature, they are either badly injured, but will live, OR simply not mentioned/shown dying.
Disney does know how to make a family film that can rely on plot and story, over violence and questionable content. Yet, while doing this, still deliver a film that the entire family can enjoy.
