Secret Headquarters

Secret Headquarters (2022) felt like a better version of the Spy Kids movies, because this had a concept that felt like a Spy Kids movie, but it was more entertaining than those movies.

I liked Walker Scobell as Charlie Kincaid and Owen Wilson as Jack Kincaid/The Guard; they had a good father and son dynamic, and you can get behind Charlie Kincaid when his dad must leave to save the day as a hero named The Guard.

There are funny moments and there are good looking effects. The tech and The Guard's hideout look cool with advanced technology that can do things like portals and 3D printing weapons and suits.

The action scenes happen in the 3rd act climax, and it does look cool and there can be funny moments during them. I liked that the kids would use the advanced tech for normal things like baseball, because you know you would have done the same thing if you were a kid finding this kind of stuff.

Secret Headquarters (2022) was a fun and entertaining movie that I can see families coming together and enjoying for a movie night.

To be honest, fell for the trailer, i was like this one ought to be a good one.

The moment it started till the very end, nothing, it offers nothing but just a worse superhero / ironman inspired movie.

Michael Peña, as funny bad guy, but that didnt work too, cause they forgot to add humor to the script after casting him.

Owen Wilson, well................... let's just forget about him

If you watch it, it will be okish, if you pass it on, nothing to loose.

I am a little disappointed with this family movie. The trailer looked great and i love Walker and Owen, especially teaming up in a movie together. They could've actually been related they look + act so similar, sadly this is a bit of a mess.

The story revolves around Owen being a superhero who's kid finds his secret lair. Not really very secret then if a 12 year old can find it.

There are so many clichés and stereotypes it's ridiculous. There's the done to death absent Father, the cringey one-liners and most annoying of all, a stupid romantic sub-plot. Why do we need a romantic interest for a kid of 12? It just felt uncomfortable.

The special fx are Ok and Walker is charismatic as hoped, but sadly he is alone, as even Owen is rusty here. And please stop putting Michael Pena in movies. He's annoying in nearly everything.

I didn't hate this movie, but it was very cringey and poor story telling for most part.

Looking at the ratings, i see younger viewers enjoyed this more and i have to say, i'm not at all surprised, it really is aimed at kids. So maybe ask a kid if it's it's good instead. But IMO it was not up to scratch.

But disappointed in the end.

It was a childish movie with a very boring story and lame unfunny comedy.

Not worth watching at all.

The trailer depicted some Iron Man vibe in it but not even close. It was awful.

It was a little long and dragged out at 104 mins, but we still laughed, albeit at different parts. The story was a bit cheesy, but still watchable. I mean any comedy with Michael Peña and Owen Wilson is going to crack some laughs.
