In SPY KIDS 3D: GAME OVER, state-of-the-art digital 3D technology puts something special into special effects action for the whole family. On their latest assignment, under-age agents Juni and Carmen Cortez (DARYL SABARA and ALEXA VEGA) journey inside the virtual reality world of a cool but crazy video game, where anything is possible, including the impossible. Action film veteran Sylvester Stallone joins the cast as the power-hungry villain the ‘Toymaker,’ who wants to take over the youth of the world, and Juni and Carmen must battle their way through tougher and tougher levels of a three-dimensional game ingeniously designed to outwit and defeat them. Using their usual humor, gadgetry, bravery and family bonds, the Spy Kids must win every high-flying, puzzle-solving challenge, from racing road warriors to surfing on boiling lava. Meanwhile, high-definition digital 3-D sequences and special viewing glasses give the audience a chance to interact with the largerthan-life excitement on screen. Adding to the visual fun, SPY KIDS 3D: GAME OVER also features all-new inventions from the mind of writer/director Robert Rodriguez, who lets his imagination loose in a blazingly colorful, futuristic game world come to life. In this latest chapter of the SPY KIDS trilogy, Antonio Banderas and Carla Gugino reprise their roles as suave spy-parents Gregorio and Ingrid Cortez and Ricardo Montalban makes a comeback as the Spy Kids’ grandfather, who plays a pivotal role in their mission. Also returning are Steve Buscemi as the mad scientist Romero; Alan Cumming as Floop; Bill Paxton as Dinky Winks; Cheech Marin as Uncle Felix; and Danny Trejo as Uncle Machete. [More]

    Retains the homemade virtues that made the earlier installments such an un-selfconscious, pleasingly clunky delight.

    ...watching in 3-D is annoying and watching in 2-D is pointless. Kind of a losing situation.

    A loser in any dimension....As if one Stallone wasn’t bad enough, Rodriguez gives us three of them.

    Where Rodriguez falls short... is in relying on the computer generated special effects to make up for problems in the script.

    Robert Rodriguez continues to pillage from past adventure genres, but the experience is about the boundless creativity of kids’ dreams, not retro nostalgia.

    While the film as a whole is still good fun, it lacks the freewheeling glee of the first two.

    If the old red and blue 3-D glasses make your eyes hurt, you may have to skip this one, but that’s the only bad thing you can say about it.

    A movie so awful that those headaches spurred by the film's shoddy optics effects seem minor by comparison.

    The 3-D is crap. And Rodriguez should have had more sense than to make Juni the star of the show.

    Even without the 3-D, set pieces such as a high-octane race and a faceoff between two giant robots would be surefire adrenaline rushes.

    Don't go unless you're in a good mood and you want to re-live a silly movie technique from your childhood. In the right frame of mind, this movie can be a blast.

    With 3D glasses on or off, it doesn't measure up to its predecessors.
