Zathura
A new adventure from the world of Jumanji.
In this heart-racing science fiction adventure, Zathura, two squabbling brothers are propelled into deepest, darkest space while playing a mysterious game discovered in the basement of their old house. On their fantastic journey, they are joined by a stranded astronaut and must survive meteor showers, hostile lizard-like aliens, a rocket-propelled robot who runs amok and an intergalactic spaceship battle. Unless they finish the game, and reach the planet Zathura, they could be trapped in outer space forever.

I watched this movie after eating, before going to bed, and though I found it enjoyable and funny, BIG MISTAKE!!!! It's funny, yes, but it's a liitle creepy. If you think about, though, I don't think it's made for 11 year olds who are watching this before going to sleep. The astronaut and the dad weren't very good, but everyone else played their parts like pros. Unfortunatly, I happened to notice that there is no one in the mom's car at the end. Though, if I had to choose between Jumanji adn Zathura, I would choose Zathura because it just seems more natural. All the characters look much more like the characters they are ment to play. What I'm saying is, it has it's problems, but not as many as Jumanji. In Jumanji, there's a boy who turns into a monkey and freaky gun obsessed man. Jumanji is not as funny, and the characters all look like they're forcing themselves to act well. All in all, I LIKE ZATHURA!!! :)

Zathura est, de base, un film pour enfant. En tant qu'adultes vous pourrez passer une excellente soiree a regarder ce film. Naturellement, ce film est joue par des enfants alors la qualite d'acteurs n'est pas au rendez-vous mais c'est quand meme plaisant a voir. Je le recommande a tous.wrong target audience - shadowcat34
I watched the movie with the idea that this would be a kid's movie. In a way it is, and it isn't. And that's what's wrong with it. For a kid, I think this movie would actually be pretty scary. there is a lot of negative stuff happening that is not so funny. And it is not adressed to an older audience either as the theme is a bit on the childish side. The special effect are nice, but the acting is not that great either. I did not find the children very endearing, quite the contrary. The way the children were portrayed reminded me of spoiled brat: cheating, screaming, misbehaved children. This is not a movie I will be showing my young kids.
