Quotes
- "We started talking about what the world was - what the Witch Mountain legacy was. What the original book had been about. And there was something interesting in re-exploring it, imagining it with what our world is like now, and what a different journey would be like. The more we started talking about it with Disney, the more we kept coming up with the fact that our Witch Mountain was going to be much darker.
- I look at the original movie with a great deal of respect and then I look at this movie as feeling like it's kind of something new. It's in no way a remake – you can't even really call it a sequel - it's just kind of another chapter."—Andy Fickman, directorFearNet: Race to Witch Mountain with Director Andy Fickman (November 11, 2008)

Review Quotes
- "Wired: Good kid actors, nice homages to the original. Tired: Low-budget remake with mediocre editing and effects."—WiredWired: Race to Witch Mountain Is a Sentimental Journey (March 12, 2009)
- "Nearly 35 years after the release of Disney's effective sci-fi thriller Escape to Witch Mountain (1975), there would seem only one way to improve it: better special effects. You'll see a few of those in this update, retitled Race to Witch Mountain. There's a trade-off: The story, acting and dialogue somehow came out weaker and creakier than before. Bottom Line: This remake of the 1975 Disney original looks and feels flatter than cardboard."—NewsdayNewsday: Race to Witch Mountain (March 12, 2009)
