Zathura
Older brother Walter (Josh Hutcherson) and the younger Danny (Jonah Bobo) are constantly at war with one another, bickering over the mediating voice of their long-suffering father (Tim Robbins). When he has to go to the office to replace some papers the boys destroyed in their crossfire, he leaves them in the dubious care of older sister Lisa (Kristen Stewart), who is sleeping upstairs. When Danny discovers an old board game called Zathura stored in the basement, his excitement is lost on Walter, who has no time for such old, boring toys. Soon, however, the game becomes impossible to ignore, as the boys are transported into space, and one of them must win in order to make it home again...

Favreau and his effects team have fun with the retro-futurist stylings of the game....The relatively restrained use of computer imagery is refreshing...

A good children's film
A similar idea of a film as Jumanji: adventuros and entertaining. However, Jumanji works better as Robin Williams gives a funny approach to the film. Zathura is... read more »

Zathura Board game
This was a very good family film. It stretched the kids minds and we all talked about having a board game like that after it had finished - wouldn't that be... read more »

Yawn... Yawn
Jumanji in space and, therefore, not in the slightest bit original. The plot, such as it is, is barely coherent tripe, no narrative flow, just a succession of ... read more »

Entertaining action
My four year old son loved this film! But I think because it is bascially all about the action and there is plenty of it. Be warned for younger children there ... read more »

Iron Man
- 01 May 2008
Iron Man rocks. At least that's how it feels in a packed cinema, with the sound cranked up, for long swathes of the night. A kind of Batman-Robocop cross, but with a special interest in the international arms trade, Iron Man may not be as well known as some of the other Marvel superheroes ' he's making his film debut here ' but he's been around for nearly half a century. Stan Lee introduced him in 1963, in the person of inventor-industrialist Tony Stark. Stark fell into the clutches of the... Read more
