Race To Witch Mountain

**Warning, there are spoilers if you intend to watch the movie.
This is another alien movie I watched over the weekend. And after watching District 9, this movie just falls flat on its face. Okay, aliens don't need to look like insects with antennas etc., they could look human is what this movie suggests.
Aliens can no more survive on their planet because of the atmospheric changes there, and so they are looking for a new habitat. Of course earth is their favorite choice, but these two child aliens know how it is so wrong to invade another's land. So they come looking for something that would prove to the aliens how life on their planet can be sustained.
They come to earth and are helped by a taxi driver "The Rock" and a astrophysicist "Carla Gugino". The script is very weak and hence fails to utilize acting talent. The special effects are also way too normal and fails to create a must watch movie. The direction is not bad and the screenplay is fine too. There is a government official too that is chasing the aliens as they are a must have biological experiment. There is so much confusion and so many people and so many missions that you fail to understand why they were all made part of one small movie like this.
My suggestion is there is nothing to watch, except if you just want a nice airconditioned seat ;)
