ZATHURA(2005)


The biggest difference between this and Jumanji are the kids!
In Jumanji, the kids a likaeble, here, not so much! Other than
that, the two movies are extremely similar, with one being based
in the jungle and this movie in space! B-

From a reviewer at IMDb.com:

Director Jon Favreau uses the same concept as Jumanji. A board
game comes alive when it gets played. Danny (Jonah Bobo) and
Walter (Josh Hutcherson) are two battling brothers who find
an old mechanical board game called Zathura, and they start
to play it. Only every move they make sends something crazy
to happen. Their entire house gets launched into outer space.
They, along with their sister Lisa (Kristen Stewart), must
finish the game and return home.

Sure it's derivative of the original Jumanji. However I think
I like this one a little slightly bit better. Having kids play
the game just seems more compelling, and more dangerous, and
more fun. Oh did I say it's fun. It's a lot of fun. - SnoopyStyle
