Movie Info
Fifteen-year-old CIA operative Cody Banks (played by Malcolm in the Middle star Frankie Muniz) is back in action in this comedy adventure, which sends the youthful secret agent to Old Blighty. Banks returns to Kamp Woody, the CIA training center disguised as a summer camp, where he's given a new partner, the bumbling but sharp-witted Derek (Anthony Anderson), and a new assignment, to track down a sinister double-agent who has made off with an experimental mind-control machine. The villain has

Really pretty hateful, shooting for the bulk of its laughs at the expense of those wacky foreign kids and the endlessly humiliated Anthony Anderson.
Top Critic... tedious, forgettable and wholly unnecessary.
Kids should be reasonably diverted for a couple of hours, but odds are they'll have forgotten the whole thing by the next morning.
Here's just about everything a 6-year-old spy would hope to find in a kiddie-espionage flick, with just a twinge of romance, but nothing serious to interrupt Cody's undoubtedly continuing career.
Kids may well find the film diverting, but there's just not a lot of creativity or energy here.
The same young teens who cozied up to the first picture will probably enjoy the sequel, but it won't win many new fans.
Moderately cute action comedy for young tweens.
You may be surprised at how not torturous [the film is].
The sequel's a caricatured and clichéd yawner. And the tone is all wrong.
Muniz manages to retain his wide-eyed, harried charm, but the film is really a shameful disservice to both him and the family audience which will no doubt turn out in droves to see it.
Cody's got to do what he can to save the day. I wish the screenwriter had done more to save the picture.
The only good I sense coming from this Cody Banks film is that it's so bad, we probably won't be seeing any more of them. Call me an optimistic; I live in hope.
A contender for worst film of the year.
The 'visual cast commentary' sees three members of the cast appearing at intervals during the movie, with the feature freezing for them to talk about the movie.
There's less charm here than in the original, less self deprecating humour, and more attempts at over-the-top humour that just don't work.
Anyone looking for a "woodwind buddy"? Look no further than Agent Cody Banks, who can't play the clarinet but is only to happy to learn.
