Man, they sure did destroy that house.

'Zathura: A Space Adventure' is a solid family advantage, but man does it have some tense scenes. I was the right age when I watched this movie. I actually remembered seeing this at the pictures. TheMan, they sure did destroy that house.

I was the right age when I watched this movie. I actually remembered seeing this at the pictures. The robot scared me the most. A big hunk of metal with red eyes and a buzz saw for a hand, who is played by the guy who voices Yoda. What's not to be scared about.… Expand

Zathura is a film that doesn't deserve too much attention. It is pretty much a bad film that has a good story and really bad special effects and ever worse actors which is a shame as it is a great idea and the result is a silly film that willZathura is a film that doesn't deserve too much attention.

And since screenwriter David Koepp has collaborated with Spielberg on "Jurassic Park", "The Lost World", & "War of the Worlds", the seemingly anachoristic word might be the case of a scribe chiding his boss for excising "penis breath" from the special edition of "E.T." As the older sister, Kristen Stewart is not an adolescent who's desexualized and Disney-fied, which adds a little realism to counterbalance the preposterous notion that a house can fly. The referencing of a Catherine Hardwicke film is a funny aside Jon Favreau might've written-in to remind people that he used to be an indie guy. "Zathura" is watchable, largely because the actors aren't overwhelmed by special effects, but it would've been more fun to see Stewart "hook-up".… Expand

Its actually a really hearty movie with fantastic effects and great use of the story, even if it can be really predictable. Its still fun to watch.
