Miniespías: Armagedón

Honestly... this was not terrible like I thought It would be.

Firstly this didn't seem like a reboot. The characters are NOT Juni and Carmen but are new characters completely.

Take the first three spy kid films plots and put them all into chatGPT with the prompt "Combine all the elements of these films into one film".

This film, although not as good as the original 3 (never saw the 4th), still feels like a proper Spy Kids film, even keeping the Spy Kids Leitmotif from the originals.

It's fun and very cheesy. Kids will probably love this, adults will probably review bomb it.

Still wish we got another outing of Carmen and Juni with the original cast.

The trilogy was silly and good in some way and the fourth part was bad but this reboot fails to match the level of the original. The movie is little bit entertaining and enjoyable but overall, it is just a average movie with forgettable story and characters. The story was average and ineffective, the screenplay was uneven, the direction was below average and the performances were okay. The family bond, which should have been an important part of the movie was totally missing.

Overall, you will not love this movie and I would recommend you to just watch the first two parts. They are enough to entertain you. This reboot was literally not needed.

No spoiler review .Spy Kids Armageddon was a nice change of pace from the last Spy kids movie. The parents are Experienced actors. The kids not professional but not as bad as " We are heros" Or Good like The Original Spy kids Trilogy.

Plot. The thought behind it was Almost SOOOOO good. The villian Could have been better made. With a Better purpose. His end Goal was kinda Odd but it had potential

CGI. The CGI was mostly Green Screen . But let me be clear this is not a bad thing in this movie. They definitely put more effort in this than previous installations.

Comedy . Definitely for children. Some good Joke for adults like a 4/20 Joke on the Computer for the Villains birthday( unless that wasnt supposed to be a joke)

Predictability. Did notice they reused a lot of jokes from the first movies. Which made this movie VERY predictable. While watching with my SO. We played a game in which i tried to predict the next scene. I was 90% right. Which makes it a hard watch.

Overall conclusion. Definitely a fun watch.... for kids. Won't complain. If you have kids. Sit down and watch it with them. But if you dont. Still sit down and watch it. Cause there isnt nothing better on netflix.

"Spy Kids: Armageddon" is a colossal disappointment, a film that crashes and burns spectacularly despite the potential of its exciting premise. The film is an incoherent mess, struggling to find its identity amidst a chaotic blend of half-baked ideas and poorly executed action sequences.

Rodriguez's direction further exacerbates the film's issues. The action sequences lack excitement and creativity, relying heavily on CGI that feels dated and unimpressive. There's a distinct lack of innovative choreography or visual flair, making the movie visually unappealing despite its supposed 'spy' theme. It's a shame to see a director of Rodriguez's caliber produce something so lackluster and uninspired.

In conclusion, "Spy Kids: Armageddon" is a prime example of how a once-beloved franchise can be tarnished by careless filmmaking. Roberto Rodriguez's direction, which was once celebrated, has now become a liability, leading the series into a downward spiral of mediocrity. This film is a disheartening reminder of what can happen when creativity takes a back seat, and commercial interests drive the filmmaking process.

I've watched the Spy Kids films. And they where entertaining fun, not great, but enjoyable B. Movie fun, and never tries to be nothing more. But Robert Rodriguez wants to keep it going, even though it appears it does not want to be, he made a superhero version titled We Can Be Heroes, which was a little better in my opinion.

Now the effects are hit or miss here, and the two kids are fun to watch, but I bought them more has friends then brother and sister. But Zachery Levi is just sleepwalking through this, looking very bored being in this. Gina Rodriguez does alright by what she's giving, but other than that, this is a mess of itself.
