The earth is facing an extinction disaster, and time starts to count down to

save the earth. Every second counts...





A taxi driver Jack Bruno (played by Dwayne Johnson) from Las Vegas, by chance, downloaded a pair of siblings with abilities. From the moment he extended a helping hand, he was involved in a thrilling adventure. It turned out that the brothers and sisters with supernatural powers came from aliens, and they also hid secrets that were unknown but were enough to destroy the entire universe. The two brothers and sisters must find the missing spacecraft within the available time and return to the alien. And this journey is a chase of life and death. They must escape the pursuit from all sides, including the underworld, the US government, and even the aliens in outer space! Time officially counts down, and the destruction of the universe is imminent. Jack and his two brothers and sisters must race against time, race against many greedy humans who covet the forces of the universe and aliens with supernatural powers, and find a solution within time: a solution that affects the life and death of the entire universe and mankind.







In terms of plot, technique and special effects, this film is quite satisfactory. The subject of aliens is not new. There have been famous "ET", "Independence Day" and so on. The existence of aliens is also a topic that people have been discussing and talking about. Of course, this has also become one of the classic Hollywood themes. "Race to witch mountain" (Race to witch mountain) is only a purely heroic and warm commercial film, and the alien creatures are set as brothers and sisters that are indistinguishable from humans.

Although the film inherits the consistent Hollywood heroism style in the plot, it is still smooth, with obvious transitions and transitions. It is not like some movies with vast scenes, stunning sound effects, but no story content. It is important to know that the main axis of a film is its storyline, no matter how fancy audio-visual effects are only a supplement and set off. Although "Super Power Adventure" has a reasonable plot, it is slightly rough in terms of details. For example, when government officials caught two aliens, their first reaction was not to prepare carefully for research, but to rush to "execute." Moreover, the role of Jushi is only a taxi driver, not an agent, but he has great powers, and he can easily find the entrance of the research room to save people. It seems that ordinary people's abilities are not inferior to aliens! In addition, there is a fully-armed alien inside to chase down the two brothers and sisters. Would this alien be more credible if he showed the public as an ordinary person? However, it doesn't really matter, anyway, this role is really optional, not the point.

On the whole, "Super Power Adventure" is a relatively relaxed film, and there are some humorous lines to entertain the audience from time to time, so you may wish to consider it when you have time.

Race to Witch Mountain quotes

  • Sara: He require some sort of proof. He thinks we're insulting his intelligence.

    Jack Bruno: YOU THINK? You just can't just drop the "we're aliens" bomb, just like that on somebody. Now, I know I've seen some pretty weird things today, but you can't expect me to believe that...

    Sara: [using telekinesis to levitate the objects in the car] I have the ability to move objects with my mind.

    Jack Bruno: That's impossible...

    Sara: No, it's quite possible. On our planet as well as yours. You don't do it, because you haven't learnt to use your full brain capacity.

    Jack Bruno: No... I don't do it because it's kind of creepy and I would like you to stop.

    [objects dropping]

  • Jack Bruno: [to Sara] Just remember that me and Alex, we're only a... a wormhole away.
