Zathura: A Space Adventure 2005 Review
by chandean-697622021-04-17
6/10

""... There are some games that you can't play alone." This is pretty much the sci-fi version of Jumanji. Zathuras story is pretty unoffensive and predictable but it's still has some subtle twists and turns that keep it somewhat fresh. The VFX impressed me, for a movie made in 2005 I was surprised to see how well the VFX have held up, even to today's standards. Jon Favreaus directing is amazing as always, although I did find there to be some pacing issues for the majority of the film. It felt a lot longer than it needed to be. Zathura is a good family sci-fi adventu..."

💡 Did You Know?

The beginning and end of the movie were shot on the same, intact, set. Throughout the movie the set was damaged and destroyed forcing the film to be shot in sequence except for the beginning and the end.
