Zathura: Une aventure spatiale

Two brothers, one ten, one six, fight all the time because that's what brothers do. One of them finds a game in the basement, a science-fiction version of Candyland with event cards, and soon they find themselves and their house in deepest space.

After the success of 1995's JUMANJI, author/artist Chris van Allsburg's follow-up book was turned into a follow-up movie. While it lacked the wild comedy that Robin Williams brought to the earlier movie, it's visually a much better movie; director Jon Favreau avoided CGI when practical effects could be made to work, and Stan Winston supervised the props and monsters. I think the script is much better put together, and the supporting characters include Tim Robbins as their father, Kristen Stewart as their sister, and Dax Roberts as the Astronaut. It's a very watchable science-fantasy movie.
