SPY KIDS 3-D: GAME OVER (Theatrical Release USA 2003)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 3.3|5.0 Stars ììì

Spy Kids 3-D: Game Over—fairly good—but the conclusion of the story seems to ruin the rest of the movie due to the script lines. This film, due to the computer gaming theme, works for children; but for the adult, there’s not much there to keep one in the entertainment seat.

Storyline

Juni Cortez (Daryl Sabara) is sent into a computer game created by his Grandfather’s (Ricardo Montalban) arch nemesis, Toymaker (Sylvester Stallone). His purpose is to rescue his sister, Carmen Cortez (Alexa PenaVega), from the game and to shut down the game in twelve short hours. As usual, Spy Kids rely on team effort to successfully outmaneuver the enemy and win their games.

Buy a ticket? Yes? No? Maybe?

Maybe. For kids, it’s a cool flick; but the conclusion needs re-writing.
