It's dumb, funny and hardly makes sense. The jokes are okay. Looks like it is aimed at a younger and older demographic. This is definitely in the "watch it with your family on a lazy night" category.
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.

Not for adults, but for children a pretty exciting and nice spy-like movie. They seemed to like it! So their rating is 7.
Btw, I love Netflix...

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.
Good watch, would watch again, and can recommend.
This movie has a lot of good surprises to it.
I'm not a big fan of Malin Akerman, but I'm not going to say she's not good in action sequence (and she does it in heels), but Joe Manganiello and Ken Marino (who is credited in IMDB as "Glen" though there is a whole running joke with his name being "Ron") both sort of rule the spotlight when they're on screen and she gets overshadowed even though she's the "main" character (at least out of the adults).
The kids mostly do an amazing job, I think they'll be worth watching as they grow in their careers.
The only big "problem" I'm seeing in this is that you're crossing a heist movie with a rescue movie, with kids.....and it feels a lot like "Dora and the Lost City of Gold" they're is even 4 of them, 2 are related. It's more likely just a coincidence of similarities, but it's a god comparison of when it gets noisy versus how to make it more seemless (Dora wins).
Can't imagine this will be disappointing watch for younger audiences, and it's definitely good enough for adults too.
