【英语时差8,16】神奇的「超异能冒险」

（单词翻译）

 "Race to Witch Mountain" stars Dwayne Johnson as Jack¹ Bruno, the Vegas cab driver who finds himself with some most unusual passengers. Jack is smarter than you might think, but he really should have figured out that the teenage siblings², Sara and Seth (Anna Sophia Robb and Alexander Ludwig), who suddenly appear in his back seat have to be from some other world. Only after a few narrow escapes on their way to a spot in the Nevada desert, which just happens to have an underground labyrinth³ filled with mysteriously glowing pods, does Jack realize there's more at work here than the outrage⁴ of his former mob bosses. Director Andy Fickman and the screenwriters know Johnson's strengths and limitations and play to them here. So there are lots of intense fight scenes in which Johnson steamrolls through flanks of assault-rifle-carrying agency operatives (it helps that Seth can stop bullets with his mind, although it takes a lot of concentration to pull that one off) or going up against the towering programmed-to-kill cyborg sent to kill Sara and Seth. Robb is exceptional as Sara, delivering the stilted⁵ alien-speak lines as if she's been talking that way her entire life. And the chemistry between Robb and Johnson is just short of terrific—you know Jack would protect Sara with his life and not because he has to.
