Reviews

Seattle Post-Intelligencer - Paula Nechak
Cast and crew have a blast making a family movie that spoofs its James Bond-like premise, is jam-packed with action, sweaty-palm suspense and adventurous, high-tech fun effects, and yet never loses its at-the-core heart and sympathies.

New York Daily News - Elizabeth Weitzman
A passable, but entirely uninspired "Spy Kids" wanna-be.
50
Christian Science Monitor - David Sterritt
There's a little humor, a little suspense, and not a hint of reality. You'll tune out quickly, unless you're 11.

The New York Times - Dave Kehr
Mr. Freundlich's naturalistic sensibility gets in the way of the film's broad fantasy elements, turning what might have been a stylized romp like Robert Rodriguez's "Spy Kids" into something a little too real for comfort.

Chicago Tribune - Unnamed
It's a juicy premise, but the enactment is so dumbed-down -- by turns preposterous and predictable -- that you couldn't possibly fault your jaded children for yawning and rolling their eyes.
