Adventure Is Waiting Actor-turned-director Jon Favreau (Elf) delivers another work of intelligent charming family fare with this space adventure based on the book by Chris Van Allsburg the author of Jumanji. 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. Each turn brings a new often dangerous surprise and the boys are faced with a murderous robot an explosive meteor shower and lizard-like aliens while poor Lisa is cryogenically frozen early in the game.

Family adventure starring Jonah Bobo and Josh Hutcherson as two brothers, Danny and Walter. Despite their squabbling, the brothers manage to cooperate enough to play an old mechanical board game named Zathura. However, after their first move, they find that the game has apparently flung them, their sister and their entire house into outer space. Furthermore, the brothers surmise the only way to return home is to finish the game. However with almost every move, new dangers arise as the siblings find themselves learning to cooperate in ways they never expected as they realise what they mean to each other.
