Last week I received a phone call from my 5-year-old brother asking me to take him to see Spy Kids. I have to tell you I wasn’t really interested in taking him. The trailers made the movie look too kiddish and did not appeal to a 19 year old or anyone really above the age of 12. But I decided to go thinking that I would not be entertained and it would be a waste of money.
Well after seeing the movie I honestly have to say that I was very surprised. I actually enjoyed the movie and I think that you will to. It does appeal to older and younger people. It was somewhat funny, and clever. The plot was great for a little kid movie. It was hard to follow at times, and I wondered while in was watching if my brother was getting it. He did (I asked him what happened on the way home).
This movie served its purpose morally and comically. It showed that no matter what family comes first and that the hardest thing to do in life is to stick together. It also had some interesting add on to the plot that dealt with touch embarrassing subjects among the early age group including wetting the bed and having to wear a diaper.
My brother truly loved this movie; it kept his attention the entire time. I was very proud of him; usually he’s running out of the movie theater or sitting on the floor not paying attention. The entire movie he sat attentively watching. He even was scared for the characters when they were in trouble. He put his head over his mouth and couldn’t sit still in his …. The anticipation of what was to come next drove him crazy. And when they were safe he put a big smile on his face and through his hands up in air and shook them up and down.
I defiantly think you should take your kids to see this movie. Especially if they around the ages of 5-12. After that I think they will lose total interest.
