A Good Kid's Movie

Two brothers, one ten, one six, fight all the time because that's what brothers do. One of them finds a game in the basement, a science-fiction version of Candyland with event cards, and soon they find themselves and their house in deepest space.After the success of 1995's JUMANJI, author/artist Chris van Allsburg's follow-up book was turned into a follow-up movie. While it lacked the wild comedy that Robin Williams brought to the earlier movie, it's visually a much better movie; director Jon Favreau avoided CGI when practical effects could be made to work, and Stan Winston supervised the props and monsters. I think the script is much better put together, and the supporting characters include Tim Robbins as their father, Kristen Stewart as their sister, and Dax Roberts as the Astronaut. It's a very watchable science-fantasy movie.

Zathura: A Space Adventure 2005 Review

"... There are some games that you can't play alone." This is pretty much the sci-fi version of Jumanji.

Zathuras story is pretty unoffensive and predictable but it's still has some subtle twists and turns that keep it somewhat fresh.

The VFX impressed me, for a movie made in 2005 I was surprised to see how well the VFX have held up, even to today's standards.

Jon Favreaus directing is amazing as always, although I did find there to be some pacing issues for the majority of the film. It felt a lot longer than it needed to be.

Zathura is a good family sci-fi adventure film. I don't feel as if it's anything too special, but it's a good time overall!
