Intrigue, disaterJan 31, 2010 In this film, the thrilling and diabolical sequel to "Escape to Witch Mountain",
an all star cast seeks to utilize the powers of the children to master the world
starting with the nuclear destruction of Los Angeles. Chritopher Lee and Bette Davis unleash their evil plans using the boys powers while his sister has engaged
the help of a group of truants to prevent the entire city from being destroyed.
The marvelous scenes of flying automobiles and floating people will keep the
audience on the edge of thier seats as the battle continues of good overcoming evil.
What is this manufactured tripe?Nov 27, 2009 When Disney made "Escape to Witch Mountain", they were at the height of their creativity. It had a well thought out plot in stages within the realm of imaginary probability. We could relate to the two characters of Tia and Tony as they searched for their true home. All the characters evil or good had depth and we could relate to them.
Instead of expanding on this well-designed base, all we get from this movie is twaddle. The characters are unbelievable exaggerated not funny not memorable and far from real. All we get is one situation after another where ridiculous kids from an improbable environment do in memorable things to and for each other. In the end, we gained nothing and wasted precious time it is better spent elsewhere.
This presentation does contain some great actors have done marvelous things in their time but now looks like it was just a vehicle for out of work actors.
Not even Blu-Ray or voice over commentaries can save this claptrap.

DVD witch mtsOct 07, 2009 Same as with the other the acting is poor. A good movie if you are age 10.
Just awful; waste of timeSep 16, 2009 Bette Davis is one of my favorite actresses and she almost made this movie worthwhile. She said she wanted to make a movie her grandchildren could watch her in. I hope they did not waste their time with this silly pointless movie. Well it had a point in that it was a sequel. The plot is totally implausible. Much of the movie has a gang of kids skipping school who befriend the star girl played by Kim Richards then they walk every where in Los Angeles. Oh really?
Just as in the first movie the special effects were ok, but very dated. In 2009 they appear quite amateurish.
I wondered what happened to the kids' suitcases which were in the taxi that left them in a bad part of town.

no charm the second time aroundJun 20, 2009 The Number One movie of the week is Race To Witch Mountain. But I can't handle the idea of substituting kindly Eddie Albert with The Rock, even if he has made a string of family films. So why not check out the gentle original from 1975, whose special effects seemed so nifty at the time. (Heck, I was even excited by the scene where the kids sat in bed and communicated with each other...telepathically!) You knew the brother was going to be prey to bad influences in the sequel Return From Witch Mountain ($19.99 each; Disney) because he was wearing a horrible turtleneck and in general the very modest magic had gone. But you can never go wrong with a story where kids feel special and misunderstood. I asked my sister the night after seeing the first movie if we should try to speak to each other telepathically when we went to bed and she told me I was a loser. But she cheated by saying it out loud. Fine for the very young. Visit me at michaelgiltz dot com.
