What Parents Need to Know
About Spy Kids
Parents need to know that this action-packed adventure includes a little bit of potty humor (which most kids will find hilarious) and one almost-swear word. Younger children might be scared by the mutant creatures, but most will find them more silly than frightening. Characters are frequently in peril (though it's usually played for laughs), and there's a certain amount of head-bonking violence. But no one even gets a scratch, except for one villain, whose encounter with flames leaves her having a very bad hair day.

An Exciting Movie
I liked it a lot, but Carmen isn't nice to her brother Juni, and also says one almost-bad word. My little sister tried to copy it for a while. I watched it with a bunch of friends, and we all thought it was great! We watched it over and over. I liked that their family is half Mexican/Spanish. There are some really cool gadgets. We wanted to see the 2nd and 3rd ones, too!

Great Movie for Kids...
SPY KIDS is a great kids' spy movie. It contains the wierd-ish sort of plot that comes from James Bond, and plenty of harmless but engrossing action. There is mild peril. The tenseness might frighten some youngsters, especially the secret agents who are turned into strange creatures (not very scary and off-screen). One child almost swears: "oh, shit(pause)take mushrooms". That's it. This film is great for young kids who want to see some action but are too young for Star Wars, Indiana Jones, or some other action flicks. Older kids interested in spy stuff should check out the Alex Rider books by Anthony Horowitz. Highly recommended.

Full of neat gadgets!
This was a fun movie for kids to see. The only negative to me was the use of "Shitake mushrooms" as a tease for kids almost swearing. I thought that was unnecessary and seemed to be way the movie makers were trying to make the movie "cooler" for kids. Not my idea of cool.
The actions scenes were good and a funny story line as well.
