They present a big amount of money to convince him, Jack is not interested in the money but the kids arouse his curiosity so he agrees.Watch a trailer here
They arrived at an old house in the middle of nowhere. The place and the house is unusual. Why would two kids want to go there? Jack’s curiosity and concern lead him to follow them.
The kids are looking for a device and encounter a few issues with an alien called “Siphon”. Siphon is here on planet earth purposely to target and destroys the kids Seth an Sara.
Jack, even though does not understand what’s really going on, is determined to offer his help and protection to the two. The lives of all three is now a race. On their way Seth and Sara tell Jack that they are aliens and they explain their mission on planet earth.
On the other side Major Henry Burke a government agent and his team are searching for two aliens and somewhere he knows that they are friends to Jack and he pursues and bullies him each time to snatch the kids from him.
In fact the two aliens planet is dying and the government of that planet wants to invade the earth to save their own planet and continue to live. The kids mission on earth is in fact to prevent this to happen. The device they now have in their possession is an experiment conducted by their parents to save their planet and having found it they have to take it quickly home.
The old house to which they went to search the device is in fact the location where the kids’ parents conducted this experiment.
There is one big issue to overcome though. It’s to find the spaceship of Seth and Sara. They don’t have any clue about it but the cab driver knows one of his client namely professor Alex Friedman a failed scientist who is delivering a speech at a conference on legitimate scientific theories of UFOs and outer space. They are now joined by the professor and Seth and Sara discover that their crashed spaceship has been relocated to a government based at Witch mountain. The group head to witch mountain, once there the kids are unfortunately captured and brought to the laboratory for experiment. In the meantime Siphon arrives to the base creates distraction and allows the humans Jack and professor Alex Friedman to free the kids.
The team together with the humans launch the spaceship and escape through the tunnel of witch mountain. Siphon is defeated and destroyed and Seth and Sara drop off Jack and professor Alex. All four share a tearful goodbye and Sara gives Jack the power to read minds.
Honesty the movie is just OK but for those who like Sci-fi movie, it’s a good one. Well since I was a small girl I was and am still fascinated with science and outer space. My own interpretation is that it seems that Hollywood is trying to make people understand that UFO and aliens do exist and that the US government knows something but they hide the truth from the world. At a given point in the movie Dr Friedman will tell major Henry Burke that the world should know what’s going on.
It is may be foolish on my part to say so but if aliens are controlling the world, then all the chaos in the world could be directly related to them. Is planet earth controlled by aliens? If they have a different name, are they devils because this reminds me of the biblical passage in the bible:
Ephesians 6:12: For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms;
Who are the spiritual forces in the heavenly realms. Alien? Devil? Have we ever thought about the connection between the two or are the same?
