Clancy is a 15 year old girl in suburbia. She fights with her overprotective mother (Malin Akerman). Her father (Ken Marino) is a baker. Her younger brother Kevin tells tall tales. Her best friend Mim is sassy. Kevin has a sleepover with friend Lewis. The four kids are launched into a night of crazy adventures when the parents get kidnapped and they discover that their mother is a former high class thief in witness protection. The mother is reunited with former lover Leo (Joe Manganiello) to steal a valuable crown.
I like all the actors. This is like a combination of Spy Kids and Adventures in Babysitting except less, stupider, and cheaper. It's not the end of the world. I still like the characters for the most part. The kids are all great but it probably has too much of the adults. Jay should definitely be a grizzly old man living in the abandoned subway. This is a Netflix flick which seems to be more than a Disney TV movie but less than a full theatrical release.

Not the best story, mediocre acting but If you don't expect too much, it is quite enjoyable. A casual family action comedy movie with sufficient entertainment. I did enjoy watching it without pause.
In the age from 5 to100, its entertaining, also funny, and for the small ones pretty tense. the acting are fine, the dialouges scripted and without originality, but a good kids save mum dad flick.
i give it a 6 cause its not disney and the perfection of living arent as flamboyant and perfect as in forementioned productions containing kid actors. so from a grumpy old man its a recommend.

The movie is certainly worth watching thanks to free acting by Simkins. There are many funny moments in the movie especially involving Simkins. This young kid lightens up the mood.
Keep your logical mind aside and just enjoy the movie.
A LOT of people these days of internet isolation forget that there are other people in the world. Some are called children. Some are called families. This is a really good family movie. Like so many family movies my parents took us to when I was a kid, The Computer Who Wore Tennis Shoes, Swiss Family Robinson, That Darn Cat, The Shaggy DA, etc., etc., etc., this movie is made for family viewing. It's also made for children. And older folks who still like family movies. And me. And you. Make some popcorn.
