After their father leaves for work,
leaving them in the care of their older sister,
six years old Danny and ten years old Walter discover
an old tattered metal board game, "Zathura".
After trying unsuccessfully to get his brother to
play the game with him, Danny starts to play on
his own. From his first move, Danny realizes this
is no ordinary board game. His spaceship marker
moves by itself and when it lands on a space, a
card is ejected, which reads: "Meteor
shower, take evasive action".
The house is immediately pummeled from above by
hot, molten meteors. When Danny and Walter look
up through the gaping hole in their roof, they discover,
to their horror that they have propelled into deepest,
darkest outer space. And they are not alone. Danny
and Walter realize that unless they finish the game
they'll be trapped in outer space forever. With
every turn, they confront one incredible obstacle
after another: They accidentally put their sister
Lisa into a deep cryonic sleep, are chased by a
crazed, malfunctioning six foot robot, rescue a
stranded astronaut and are besieged by lizard like,
carnivorous creatures called Zorgons.
With the help of the astronaut, Danny and Walter
begin to put their petty fraternal differences aside,
work together to overcome the obstacles they encounter
and attempt to finish the game so they can go home.
But all their efforts may be in vain when they face
their biggest challenge of all a battle against
an intense gravitational pull into the void of the
dark planet Zathura. |
