The prepubescent, globetrotting, super-spy sibling duo from director Robert Rodriguez's surprise 2001 hit Spy Kids is back to save the world for a second time in this bigger-budget, larger-scale sequel. Spy Kids 2: Island of Lost Dreams opens with our heroes Carmen and Juni (Alexa Vega and Daryl Sabara), now official OSS agents, in the midst of another crisis situation: They have to reclaim to the powerful Transmooker Device from the clutches of those who might try to use it to permanently disable energy on Earth. Their quest leads them to the tropical lair of Romero (Steve Buscemi), an unhinged scientist who retreated into seclusion after a daring experiment backfired on him -- as well as on a whole breed of mutant creatures. As if finding the Transmooker weren't enough, Carmen and Juni have to contend with another set of mini-spies, Gary and Gerti Giggles (Matt O'Leary and Emily Osment), who are eager to one-up the world's most-respected spy kids. Returning to Spy Kids 2 are parents Antonio Banderas and Carla Gugino, as well as the evil-doers of the first film, Alan Cummings and Tony Shalhoub. ~ Michael Hastings, Rovi

    If you were to have told me that Robert Rodriguez, the director of Desperado and El Mariachi would make a ‘kid flick’, I would probably exclaimed, “When pigs fly!” In a rare display of Hollywood loyalty, Rodriguez even utilizes many of the same actors. Unfortunately I’m not a kid anymore, but this movie definitely isn’t just for kids. Think of it as a much younger James Bond (and his sister) movie with Q on steroids. If you’re a kid, sit back and enjoy! If you’re an adult, slap on some anti-wrinkle cream, grab a big box of Ju-Ju Beans and enjoy!

    If only these films were available when I was a kid, but even for adults there is some humor that soars in at the level of Bullwinkle and Rocky over the cerebral cortex of the kiddies and lands squarely on the chin of adults who are indulging in this film. And, while I could throw darts at dialogue and silly plot twists, I am astutely aware that I was a guest viewing a film intended for another audience which may have high entertainment from the film's sophomoric quips, jabs and obvious directions. Enjoy the film, and if you think you are smarter than a fifth grader, try the Set Top game included under Special Features on the DVD.

    Not to bad of a movie, wasn't as good as the first one, but it had a good cast and had some funny parts. Lots of neat gadgets that the kids would like.
