Reviews for Spy Kids
Spy Kids is a frivolous but fun adventure movie that will give kids thrills and adults some smiles. Everybody goes home happy.
Pitched somewhere been the swagger of James Bond and the out there ambience of Willy Wonka, Spy Kids is a real treat.
... the nonstop action and terrifically imaginative production should make "Spy Kids" a winner with kids. Adults will enjoy it as well.
The first great movie of 2001...this is Raiders of the Lost Ark in the form of a gleefully smiling Happy Meal.
