![]() ARTHUR DENT IS HAVING A REALLY BAD DAY! WHEN HE LEARNS THAT A FRIEND IS ACTUALLY AN ALIEN WITH KNOWLEDGE OF EARTH'S IMPENDING DESTRUCTION, HE IS TRANSPORTED OFF THE PLANET. AND IF THAT'S NOT ENOUGH, THROW IN BEING WANTED BY THE POLICE & A CHRONICALLY DEPRESSED ROBOT & YOU'VE GOT THE GREATEST ADVENTURE OFF EARTH. ![]() The effects are low-tech and no longer special, but Escape to Witch Mountain still has plenty of Disney live-action charm. It's rather quaint by later standards, coming just two years before Star Wars upped the ante on movie magic, but the story's got timeless appeal as a precursor to Harry Potter's more lavish brand of kid-wizardry. Here you've got Tony (Ike Eisenmann) and sister Tia (Kim Richards), orphans unaware of their mysterious past, who are taken in by a nefarious liar (Ray Milland) seeking to exploit their supernatural powers. Populated by '70s stalwarts like Donald Pleasance and Eddie Albert (the later playing the kids' grown-up accomplice, unwittingly rescuing them from Milland), this lightweight Disney fare is perfect for kids under 10, with such enticements as a clever cat mascot named Winky (because he winks a lot), Tony's magical harmonica... and a Winnebago that flies! With a sci-fi climax, this popular hocus-pocus spawned a 1978 sequel (Return from Witch Mountain) that has proven similarly popular with kids. —Jeff Shannon ![]() Experience breathtaking close-up encounters with the largest mammal that ever lived on earth — the Blue Whale.
