Featured reviews
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.
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.
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.
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.
