Similar to "Spy Kids," this movie features 3 kids who are good at espionage, martial arts, hacking, and masterminding complicated plans. Most of their pranks, such as orchestrating a food fight at school, are harmless until they get involved in a plot to steal top-secret government files and so the movie is about them trying to recover the stolen information.

Since it's every kid's (and a few adults) dream to be a secret agent, this movie will probably occupy its target audience fairly well. However, the acting was really bad, the character development was non-existent, and the special effects weren't very special for a 2005 movie. It's also entirely unbelievable, but I expected that.

Basically, it just falls flat. It will not go down in history as a great movie, nor spin-off into a TV show, nor be the next "must buy" DVD. It just wasn't anything special. I did like the ending, though.

So, if your expectations are low, and you just want a fun, family-friendly movie to occupy your 7-year-old, go for it. You'll enjoy it. But otherwise, I wouldn't recommend.

Atrocious acting, wonky editing, a plot that forgot to take its Ritalin and a limited, repetitive soundtrack whose main theme almost plagiarizes the pirates of the Caribbean theme put this movie below bottom of the bargain bin standards.

Though in fairness, it saddens me to see that the spoonful of mashed potatoes wasn't nominated in the 2004 Oscars, i know it's hard to make a spoon of lumpy potatoes cry, but hey, there's a feminine side to all of us. :(

This is one of those fresh, energetic kids films that only comes along once in a long while. The acting is great, the action energetic and there are surprise plot twists all along the way. What I really liked was that it didn't have the ho hum crude jokes you see in most kids films. It had a sophisticated kid feel to it with a really witty script. The three main kids are very fun to watch in action as super spies and their characters work well together. The adult actors are terrific and pull the movie together with their comic timing. The character that played Jeff at Game Ink was really funny, also the cab driver. I thought William Davis was really well cast as Max's Uncle. At the end of the show, everyone in the audience started clapping and whistling. It's obvious this film is a big hit with kids and I can't wait to get it on DVD.

I loved the movie It was great it is a great film for all people from 1 to 90 years old, I highly recommend it and buy it when it comes out, it has many funny scenes and many funny kids like Drake Kemper, He adds comedy even though he only has a small role, and most of the movie was filmed 3 years ago, but they sold it and they needed 8 more minutes so it has some from 2001-2005, It is interesting how it turned out and it is quite funny, if you have kids, preteens, or like family films , please enjoy the film
