just watch it!

Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.

I gave this film a 9 out of 10, because it was exactly what I expected it to be.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

The first film is the only one to bother with, the second was okay and the third was awful, I did not have high hopes for this fourth instalment, which in 4D meant for cinema goers meant 3D effect and smelling or feeling things, not for me watching on TV, directed by Robert Rodriguez (From Dusk Till Dawn, Sin City). Basically Marissa Wilson (Jessica Alba) on the surface appears to be just an ordinary mother with a new baby and married to famous spy hunting television reporter Wilbur Wilson (Joel McHale). Her intelligent twin stepchildren Rebecca (Rowan Blanchard) and Cecil (The Lone Ranger's Mason Cook) don't want her around, thinking she is uncool, in fact, with her husband unaware, she is a retired secret agent. Her true identity is only revealed to Rebecca and Cecil when they enter the underground layer of the house, full of spy gadgets and gizmos, and they become entangled in a world domination plot, the maniacal Timekeeper (Jeremy Piven) threatens to take over the planet by slowing time. Marissa is wanted back in action by the Organization of Super Spies (OSS), home of the greatest spies and where the now defunct Spy Kids division was created. Rebecca and Cecil are surprised by the revelation of their "boring" stepmother, and with their bickering ways they must put their differences aside and work together to save the world, and they get help from former Spy Kids, now teenagers, brother and sister Juni Cortez (Daryl Sabara) and Carmen Cortez (Alexa PenaVega), and robotic talking dog Argonaut (voiced by Ricky Gervais). In the end, after defeating the Time Keeper and his identical henchmen, Danger D'Amo and Tick Tick (both also Piven), time is intact and restored, and the Spy Kids program is revived, with Rebecca and Cecil going on to become recruiters of new agents. Also starring Danny Trejo as Uncle Machete, Chuck Cureau as News Anchor and Jeepers Creepers' Jonathan Breck as Wilbur's Boss. The previous instalment was a complete mess, it crossed the line between expensive trash and cheap rubbish with its use of special effects, unfortunately things have not improved with this fourth instalment, the special effects are pointless when you combine with a predictable and stupid story, I perhaps tittered at the voice of Gervais and some spoof references, but the charm has disappeared and it feels like the kids themselves are responsible for putting it together, this is one the kids and the family should not even bother with, a crap fantasy action adventure. Pretty poor!

Spy Kids 4: All the Time in the World is the fourth installment of the Spy Kids series that was resurrected after eight years of absence in 2011.This family film adventure movie by Robert Rodriguez stars the originals - Alexa Vega and Daryl Sabara - together with Jessica Alba,Joel McHale,Rowan Blanchard,Mason Cook,Ricky Gervais and Jeremy Piven.The story of the fourth film is about a family that seeks the help of Spy Kids - Carmen and Juni Cortez - after they are threatened by a nemesis who intends to take over the world.Marissa Cortez Wilson is married to a famous television reporter and has step kids Rebecca and Cecil,who happen to be intelligent kids and who apparently don't want their stepmother around so much. Apparently,Marissa happens to be a retired spy and her world is turned upside down after a new nemesis - Timekeeper - plans to take over the planet.In her mission,she seeks the help of the Spy Kids to stop Timekeeper's evil plans.At this film,the series has obviously run its course.It should have not been brought back to screen considering that the fourth film has been characterized by the same old plot that worked in the original such as under-aged kids acting as spies,nemesis that have the same mission of taking over the world and bringing back the new special effect particularly the crummy old AromaScope.It is apparent that the children who have enjoyed the first three films have grown up as adults just like the original Spy Kids cast and they have definitely outgrown the fun,excitement and entertainment that it is expected to provide.The box office results is a testament to that as it was the lowest among all four films.In the end,it is time to put a halt to the series.

What can I say, after lots of effects that clearly is cheaply made - lots of poop, puke and slime jokes, it only goes downhill.First of all, no one seem to have a brain - which is to expected for a kids movie, but do we have to sink so low ?The father keeps saying he have never caught a spy, I guess it is supposed to make you laugh, as his wife is a spy - OK, wait, she is a former spy.Tons of boring, really boring, time jokes. However, times don't fly when you see the movie, or does it ? because all clocks spins like crazy.So what happens when the time runs out - when no more time left ? Absolutely nonsense concept - but it justify that a bad guy can wear a clock helmet to cover his face. Wow....OK, as we are kids, lets just throw all the food on the floor - lets be good examples too other kids.

This is definitely the worst spy kids movie ever made and 1 of the worst of all movies. The scenery was too boring or twisted. What is with a spy baby, a spy dog, and a villain who doesn't know what he was doing until the kids showed him the real truth? The kids who played the spy kids didn't even go on a mission until the last 20 minutes of the movie to experience being spies. The father was creepy showing an eye brow look to his son to look tough and his show was dumb. How dare filmmakers imitate a similar home to where The Cortezes lived in! Acting was poor. Same goes for the gadgets. What was ironic was the new spy kids looked much younger than the original spy kids, when they started being spies. I think this was just a movie to laugh at how poor of a job it was made.
