Trivia:
The blueprints that serve as a key plot device are said to be 30 years old - which would mean they date from the time of the original movies. more
Goofs:
Incorrectly regarded as goofs: When talking about the Mustang on Jack's key chain which is hooked to the key in the ignition in the RV. The RV isn't Jack's, so it shouldn't even have been used at that time. However, given the sentimental meaning behind the key chain (as discussed in film) there's no reason he couldn't have removed it from his own key chain before handing the keys to the cab over. more

Good family movie, 14 March 2009
9/10
Author: ladystorm282001 from United States

I don't see why some people say that they don't like this movie. I thought it was a very good family oriented movie. It had a great blend of comedy and action and I found it very refreshing.

I love the Rock and I think he does very well in these types of movies. I love the old Witch Mountain movies and wasn't sure at first about this one but it was different enough to be well liked by those who have watched the old ones and enough action to get the younger crowd. I also love Ciran Hinds and even though he was playing the bad guy in this movie it was nice to see him in a role that had him in most of the movie instead of bit parts, he is a great actor and I hope he gets some larger roles in the future.

Over all a nice family movie.
