It's a PG-rated kids superhero movie - don't judge it as a movie made for adults
There are continuity gaps and characters are flat. It's CGI heavy. Everything is flashy and shiny and lots of stuff blows up. The jokes are intended for a grade-school audience. Not unexpectedly, the kids are smarter than the adults and end up saving the day.
Make some popcorn and spend an evening with your kids. There are worse things in life.

not sure what people were expecting
This is a PG kids movie along the lines of Spy Kids so it should be rated as such. Had some laughs and the kids enjoyed it. It's a 7, The people comparing it to Iron Man should give their head a shake. It's a kids movie and not a bad one.
Familiar formula, done well
Secret headquarters in a way is nothing new and follows in those movies with a similar plot line. Kid thinks father is a deadbeat. Till kid finds out father is the greatest person to ever live. I like to call that the turbo man effect. Anyway Owen Wilson is jack the father of Charlie who is never there for him. But little does young Charles know his father is actually a superhero. Charlie tries to impress a new girl and his friend Berger brings them round to hangout. Things happen and headquarters is found. Villains find it. In the for of Pena a scientist of all people. There was some pretty fun moments though and overall it was an enjoyable film.
A secret hero
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.

Enjoyable
For a kids movie I'd say it's pretty enjoyable. I loved the comedy, and the action sequences were pretty cool. The gadgets they used were impressive and I enjoyed how they each had their own gimmick and learned how to use it. The acting could use some work but it was still fun to watch. I liked the casting I loved Walker Scobell after The Adam Project so it was nice seeing him playing other roles. I wouldn't watch it again but it's a good family movie for a movie night.
