Very Well Done
posted on 02 Aug 2009I am not a fan of the Spy Kids Movies at all, as a matter of fact, i did dislike the first and second, but two things drew me to see the third film..the fact that it was in 3D and Sylvester Stallone. I support anything the man does because hes great. The 3D is wonderful and very pleasing to the eye..the action is good and its a fun movie..the best in the serious in my opinion and Stallone does absolutely awesome as the villain "The Toymaker", he brings some very funny humor the screen and goes all out showing that hes just having a great time doing what he does. Not a bad film, one of the better movies ive seen this summer.
Well put together piece of garbage
posted on 25 Jul 2009This film is by no means good. Please stay away from it while I discuss all the flaws in the movie industry. And remember, any movie that got 1 star at the box office is always horrendous.Okay, let's get down to brasstacks. This is a horrible movie I can't tolerate like the first two. Sabara is terrible, I liked him when he was younger. So was Alexa Vega, you didn't see her for about the first character. I'd actually say (before I saw it) that this movie had a decent cast, but they all did horribly. This will teach Rodriguez to cut the crap with sequels. What was Elijah Wood doing there?!?! He had about 2 minutes on screen and did horrible in those two minutes. And the 3D hurts the eye after a while.The only other thing worse in this movie is Sylvester Stallone. Any scene with him was trash. Stay away from this movie.User Rating:1/2
You would have more fun looking at a glass of water!!
posted on 17 Jul 2009Spy Kids 3D: Game Over tells the story of Juni, who can't seem to find his sister. He later discovers that she is trapped in a virtual reality game. Juni goes into the game to try to shut it down and defeat the toymaker. This movie is not even close to exciting. It has no good jokes, the characters are fake, and the whole plot is just a mess. The "cool" characters try too hard to seem calm; the "tough" kids are always trying to seem like they want to destroy everything; and last but not least the "nerds" are always saying things so complicated, then when everyone is looking at him with a weird face (which is supposed to be funny and is clearly not) the nerd just says what he meant in such simple terms it's ridiculous! my advice to anyone who isn't sure if they want to watch this movie, take my advice and just stare at water! That will be a bigger adventure than this movie will ever have! My rating is: .0(to the infinity power)1/10
Half a good movie
posted on 05 Jul 2009I think I'm glad this is the last in the series.I enjoyed about half the movie - that half being the "eye candy" of the special effects in the action sequences, particularly the hoverbike and mech wrestling. I got a giggle out of the Tetris pieces used to make platforms, and out of how much one of the actresses resembled the artwork for the heroine of every one of the Final Fantasy video games...kind of appropriate.The child actors were, in general, surprisingly watchable - I would've liked to have seen more of Alexa Vega in the film, honestly - and Ricardo Montalban and Sylvester Stallone were well matched against each other. They had to be, really, because despite top billing for Antonio Banderas and Carla Gugino, they were barely on screen long enough to be noticed.But the eye candy and the generally good acting couldn't make up for the overall level of stinky, stinky CHEESE that makes up the bulk of the film. I had the feeling that a couple big chunks of the film were missing - some exposition at the beginning would have been nice, and the resolution of the "video game" part of the movie felt very, very rushed. The video game plotdevice itself is...umm...let's say it overloaded my disbelief suspender, and the overall tone of the movie was beyond absurd, a real disappointment in light of the first movie in the franchise. And the final scene seemed to just be an excuse to get every adult who'd ever gotten camera time in the first two films another 15 seconds in front of the camera.My five-year-old loved it, of course, but I wish we'd waited to see it in second run.
What a way to go!
posted on 23 Jun 2009I must admit, Spy Kids 3-D is not one of Rob's best films. However, it is definately one of the better kids films on the market. The man seems to have no limits to his imagination, and it shows in this film. I sat in a packed cinema, and not one single person walked out of it un-happy. The film will not win awards, nor will it stand out as a major point in anyones career. It simply did it's job, and that was to entertain.To be honest, i think the film would have benefitted if it was not is '3-d'. Not only was the gimmick a distraction, it was also quite uncomfortable. I found myself turning away from the film on several occasions to rest my eyes. Only on a few occasions, did the 3-D actually work, most times it simply seemed to blur and look poop.The story is something that, as in most Rodriguez films, just takes a back seat to everything else. By the end of the film, you actually could not care less about the story. In fact, Rodriquez himself seems to through everything out of the window and end the film in the way he saw fit on that particular day of shooting. WARNING! If you have no imagination, or are'nt willing to let go of reality, then don't watch this film.There are some fantastic cameos from the Rodriquez 'family'. He even brigns in a certain member from The Faculty cast. I think the only member of the 'family' missing is Tarantino.This is deffinately one for fans of Rodriquez the kid and fans of the first two spy kid films inparticular. There are alot of references to spy kids 2, so make sure you see that one first.Now he has got it out of his system, i can't wait to see Rodriquez the big kid again. Bring on Once Upon a Time in Mexico!!!!8 out of 10.
A fitting coda to a modestly well done series of films
posted on 19 Jun 2009There appears to be an overwhelming surge of hatred towards this film, which leads me to one conclusion: people went to see this for the wrong reasons. This is a family film, one geared specifically towards kids and parents who never really grew up. For the record, I thoroughly enjoyed this installment of the series; it's not the best of the bunch, but the 3rd installment is typically the weak link (can anyone say Return of the Jedi?)The setting of the film indeed owes a great debt to TRON, one that is repeatedly referenced in the dialogue and the action, and Rodriguez knew from the beginning that he would encounter resistance and problems with the red/blue process (watch Alan Cumming's intro to the film again, and you'll see what I mean), but the end product is a gorgeous piece of eye candy. It would've looked better in sequential field (IMAX) or polarised 3-D, but the market this film is aimed at isn't interested in spending the big bucks these processes require. The 3-D as it stands is amazingly effective (the mercury-like substance bouncing into the audience, the Mega Legs power-up in your face) and achieves great depth within its limitations.The performances widely vary, but this reflects the fact that the performers here are real kids, not the Hollywood brats we're used to seeing. Darryl Sabara was always the weaker of the Cortez siblings in terms of acting, but he's come a long way from the first film, and the film's revelation of the characters in the game being fantasy versions of their real-life counterparts was all too real and too funny.In short, this is a pleasant diversion that families can safely take their children to, with positive values that anyone can appreciate. When's the last time you saw a secular film that taught the importance of forgiveness without being preachy about it? If you can appreciate that little nugget, see this film.
worst movie ever
posted on 08 May 2009After seeing movies like the hulk, king Arthur, timeline and terminator 3 i didn't think i would ever see a worse movie but spy kids 3-d proved me wrong. i really enjoyed the first two movies i found them to be creative and funny. the stories were good and the acting was average. i had been excited about this one because it was supposed to take place in a video game and be in 3D, when i brought it home and put it in the DVD player it all went down hill. the acting was terrible especially by Slyvester Stallone. the 3d effects did'nt work and the goggles started hurting my eyes so i took them off and then the movie also hurt my eyes. the story though is the worst part of the movie its just plain ridiculous and it is filmed as if they just wanted to show how not to make a 3D film.
Game Over? I could not wait for this movie to be over!
posted on 02 May 2009Sequels are often worse than the original and the rule is amplified in this sequel to a sequel. The original Spy Kids was cute, enjoyable and, if not totally original, well done. The Sequel was predictable but still enjoyable and well done. Nothing in this movie is original, it is predictable and subject to bad production. The best thing about this movie is Sylvester Stallone playing a bad guy (in a kids movie) and talking to representations of himself. That should tell you how bad this movie is.All is not bad with this movie. Daryl Sabara is actually quite good. I'd like to see him in some really challenging role. I think he's ready to break out of his kid's roles. He'll never be a Haley Joel Osment, but I think he could do more. Alexa Vega looks bored with the whole thing, and I can't say I blame her. She too could use a good break out.Reuse of an old idea can be flattering, but not when it comes off worse than the original. The special effects of Tron are primitive compared to today's movie making standards, yet the Light Cycle race in Tron is much more exciting than the cycle race in SK3D.The 3D effects, at least at the theater I saw the movie at, were absolutely awful. Maybe it was the cheap glasses, but the colors were wiped out, there were color registration problems and the 3D did not pop like it should. If you've ever been to Disneyworld, or other major theme park, and seen 3D well done, you know what I am talking about. The chorography relied too heavily on the 3D effect to be really interesting, especially when the effect was not there. I tried really hard, but I could find no justification for this movie to be done in 3D.Unlike the movie, I know when things should end. There are a lot more bad things about this movie, but I think you get the idea: this movie is bad; avoid it all costs. Two Stars and Two Thumbs Down.
irredeemably stupid
posted on 30 Apr 2009What a mess. There are clever ideas here and there, a few laughs, the occasional decent special effect (I saw this on TV so didn't see it in 3D, which perhaps would have made the generally disappointing effects more impressive), but the lame, tossed-together script and the lack of any cohesion to the final product make this only barely watchable. This movie seems to just be going through the motions; you can't even call it formulaic because it barely attempts to even stick with any formula, it's more like random stuff thrown in here and there. As for the ending, well, it's main purpose was to create an excuse (and not a very good one) to have cameos by everyone who was in the first two movies (allowing them to list Bandaras first in the credits even though he's on screen for only a couple of minutes), and the final showdown is so utterly moronic that words fail me.At the same time, I didn't actually hate it. I wasn't in pain watching it. It was a mindless Saturday afternoon movie and I watched it as mindlessly as I could and occasionally enjoyed it. But after the very fun second movie (which I thought superior to the first), this was a great disappointment. I'd advise skipping it.
OK for a an hour 3D movie.
posted on 30 Apr 2009This movie,I pretty enjoyed. The story lines really suck soo bad. Probably that was wrong with the movie and people didn't like it. Maybe thats why. Well the 3D i give it credit. They did pretty a good job on it and made it enjoyable.Spy kids 1 was an awesome movie. Compare spy kids 2 and 3 makes it a master piece and that is pretty sad. Spy kids 2 was not enjoyable or funny. The only funny part in that movie was Gary Giggles laugh lol. I think spy kids is better then 2 though. Spy kids one kills all it's sequels. That just sad. I gave Spy kids 3D 5 out of 10. The actors in this movie were good but the STURY LINE SUCKED. That really p***ed off people and probably some kids ;).
Fun with thirds...
posted on 16 Apr 2009This movie is fun. Plain and simple. It's use of the THIRD dimension really sets it apart from other movies in its genre (if there are any) but its THIRD act ultimately disappoints. The lackluster ending, and it is just that, feels almost forced to wrap everything up with a burst of cameos and appearances from almost all the key players from the first two flicks. Regardless of how rushed it may feel, Spy Kids 3-D: Game Over does do what it promises, gives you a fun time in 3D. The big fight between the robots and the MegaRace are highlights of the film, as is a certain Hobbit's cameo. Fun stuff, funny stuff, and a theme that's shoved down our throats, I'm still going to recommend this movie to anyone who liked the first two, oh and by the way...you get to keep the glasses! Wicked...
about as exciting as watching the grass grow
posted on 02 Apr 2009oh goody. 4 lines to explain one movie that can be explained in 2 words which are: REALLY AWFUL. this is a movie that was put together simply because the first 2 were sucessful at the box office. and this explains why this movie has absolutely no plot whatsoever. as for special effects? even the original mario game from nintendo had more of a story then this.
A dreadful final entry for the Spy Kids
posted on 25 Mar 2009I expected to receive the same kind of cool duo fun you got in Spy Kids 1 & 2 for SK3-D....."How wrong was I!"SK3-D is nothing more then a stupid gimmick to sell 3-D effects!Alexa Vega does not even show up in the movie until 40 minutes into the duration and when she does has very little dialogue, This movie is 87 minutes long and should have been called "Spy Kid: Juni's Adventure" he was the main star! no one else, why this kid got 4th billing I will never know....1/5
Muddled, muddy mess.
posted on 01 Mar 2009This blinding, eye-cross-inducing video-game of a movie was made doubly worse by digital projection. Digital projection is the worst advancement in the movie I have ever seen. Basically it is like watching a laserdisc on a giant screen, which is something I want to do at home, not at the movies. This gave me a blinding headache. Will be even worse on DVD.
The worst film of 2003... in painful 3-D
posted on 27 Feb 2009I know we're only a little over halfway through 2003, but this is without a doubt the worst film of the year. Only once before have I hated a film so much that I felt cheated out of the money I spent to see it. The first two SK films were clever child fodder that was entertaining enough to sustain an adult's attention. However, this sorry excuse for a film was neither clever nor entertaining. And it featured the WORST 3-D I've ever seen (even worse than "Freddy's Dead" -- I was unaware that was possible). The paper thin premise has Daryl Sabara entering the video-game realm to find his trapped sister, Alexa Vega, and shut down the videogame, run by Sly Stallone. It's sad when Stallone was truly the best thing about the film (never thought I'd hear myself say that!). The writing (if you could call it that) was droll and uninspired, the visuals were computerish and bland, and the story was non-existant.The film features 70 mins of headache-inducing 3-D that would make Alfred Hitchcock (Dial M for Murder) and Vincent Price (House of Wax) roll over in their graves. When I was a kid (which was not that terribly long ago, I'm 26), red-and-blue 3-D films were run on 2 projectors simultaneously. In addition to adding depth to the film, it really did make things appear to pop out of the screen. This film, however, was run on one projector, and while it did have depth, nothing popped out and the 3-D ruined the lush colors that it was filmed in. With newer technology in 3-D projection, it REALLY bothers me that they didn't go with the gray-tinted glasses used in recent years -- geez, the 3-D episode of "3rd Rock From the Sun" looked like a Salvador Dali next to this 1-year-old-child's-painting. I wasn't expecting a "Captain-EO" Disneyworld attraction but I did expect much better from what had been a classy set of kid's films.My final gripe is that Sabara received fourth billing when was the star of the film. It wasn't until 9/10 of the way through that Vega shows up, and all of the "stars" from the previous films are reduced to an embarrassing cameo at the end. The only stars who have major parts (which are still minor at that) are Stallone, Montalbon, Hayek and Judge.The only good thing I have to say is that it was interesting to see the screen-tests for Sabara and Vega that run after the credits are through (though I was the only one in the theatre who waited around long enough to see them). Avoid this turkey til it comes out on video, where it'll probably play better in 2-D!
Oooo my eyes hurt... what was this about anyway?
posted on 25 Feb 2009For some stupid reason, the makers of this movie decided to use the "old way" of creating a 3D effect -- red and green glasses. The "new way" (which isn't all that new) uses polarized filters, which allows all the colors to get through to both eyes. This is what they use at IMAX films and amusement parks, and the 3D effect is amazing, even frightening sometimes. So, since the 3D part is such a big deal in this movie -- heck, it's in the title -- why didn't they use the "good" 3D method?I suppose the polarized glasses are more expensive? Given the fact they were guaranteed to make money with this sequel, they should have spent the extra money for decent glasses. About fifteen minutes into the 3D portion of the movie my eyes were sore. Another person I talked to had the same problem.But! Even worse than the physical pain we had to endure, the colored glasses give you a movie with muddy colors and fuzzy 3D effects.Since the plot and characters took a backseat to the 3D effects, this was a serious flaw. Just like in the old 3D movies that ruined the genre decades ago, there is something flying out at you at every opportunity, and it gets tiring in a hurry. Especially since the 3D effect didn't work... because of the crappy glasses.Plot? Not really. Mostly they fumble around in a video game, doing meaningless things. I suppose a video game tie-in is imminent?Grandpa comes along and flits in and out of the picture, and pulls our heroes out of trouble several times. Our heroes don't need to worry, Grandpa is there. Deus ex machina, anyone?The whole thing culminates in a grand and unbelievable battle, which I won't spoil for you in case you do want to see this. Suffice to say, puny humans toppling skyscaper-sized monsters with karate kicks doesn't work for me.Characters? Funny, I don't remember any. That's probably because they were cardboard cutouts with mediocre acting from the kids and overacting from the adults. Surprisingly, Stallone did a good job as the villain and made the only interesting character. Go figure.The whole cast from previous movies returns for cameos. Banderas has the only memorable scene in the movie.It's too bad. The first movie was terrific because it showed there is a market for good non-animated family films, and it was an entertaining fantasy. The second was good too, for the same reasons. This one is a muddy-colored plot-challenged eyesore.My kid enjoyed it though, even if he was rubbing at his eyes at the end like me. There were some nice messages about the importance of family and people in wheelchairs. So I gave it a middling rating overall.
Hello! The film is much exiting and ....
posted on 21 Feb 2009Hello! I love this movie! I have seen it three times i think and i love it every times! The movie was (and is) very exiting, very good and much, much more. I like the movie because it was good (very good) and it was (and is) very exiting. That is because I give it an 10 (Exellent) in my vote. I have not seen it on cinema if I remember right but I have seen it at home (whith 3D glasses of course)! I most say that I not looking at the Swedish version I look at the original version (English languish), but I have Swedish text on. Good Bye and Have a Good New Year everyone!Kasper Sjöström (kasper.s@spray.se) From Sweden
Imaginative, Enjoyable Family Adventure!
posted on 03 Feb 2009The third installment of Robert Rodriguez' franchise is actually funnier and more inventive than last year's ISLAND OF LOST DREAMS, and conveys wonderful messages about family bonding and loving your neighbor.
Young Juni Cortez (Daryl Sabara) has turned his back on the spy biz, becoming a pint-size gumshoe (in a funny takeoff of the old Hollywood film noir stereotype), but when the President (George Clooney, obviously having more fun than he did in SOLARIS) informs him sister Carmen (Alexa Vega, ripening into quite a babe) has disappeared while playing in a virtual reality game created by the evil Toymaker (Sylvester Stallone, in his first successful film in YEARS), Juni (and the audience) dons 3-D glasses and dives into a three-dimensional adventure!
The film maintains a breakneck pace, and optical effects abound as Juni struggles through one level after another, receiving bogus advice from the Giggles (Salma Hayek and Mike Judge). He's offered a chance to receive assistance from one family member, and he chooses Grandpa (Ricardo Montalban, who, thanks to CGI, can walk, and gives a heck of a performance for an 83-year old!) Grandpa and Toymaker were adversaries 30 years ago (Toymaker costed the elder Cortez his legs, as he was imprisoned in another dimension), and they have a hidden agenda of their own to settle, which creates the 'Real World' finale of the film: a battle royale, pitting a squad of giant robots against the entire Contez family, AND the other heroes and villains of the previous two films (bringing back Alan Cummings, Tony Shalhoub, Steve Buscemi, Cheech Marin, and Bill Paxton, among others). Good triumphs (did you REALLY expect otherwise?), Stallone learns a lesson in forgiveness, and everybody bonds (as we are taught the lesson, EVERYBODY is family).
The film has many charms, from Clooney's dead-on impersonation of Stallone, to Antonio Banderas' cameo, dropping EVERYTHING to help his children. I only wish Carla Gugino, as Mom Cortez, could have been seen more; she looks FABULOUS!
Take the kids and grandkids...this one is a winner!
Thanks God is over
posted on 20 Jan 2009This movie was a disappointment.After waiting so long to see a 3-D movie (last one i saw was "Freddy's dead:The last nightmare)i found out that 3-D stills sucks after all these years.I really liked the first 2 Spy Kids movies but this one seems out of place.The movie is so linear is boring,they go from level 1 to 2 and then 3 and so on and i wished they had a game so they could find a shortcut straight to level 5.Silvester Stallone was awful in this one and now i know why his other last 4 movies were never released in United States.After a great performance in "Frida",Saloma Hayek was lame.All the kids actors were lame and even if Daryl Sabara (Juni)is ok in this movie,i wished Carmen (Alexa Vega) was the one doing the rescue.The parts without the 3-D looked great but as soon as you put on those glasses everything looked blurry and even i noticed that in some parts the picture appears out of sync with itself.We get to see all the past characters even if two of them only get to say two lines of dialog and disappeared.The last scene is awful and seems rushed and its only there to show all the characters.Save your money and wait until it comes to DVD,i heard you will be able to watch it without the 3-D which at some times thats what i did sometimes because its uncomfortable to watch with those stupid cardboard glasses.I wished Robert Rodriguez did Spy Kids 3 without the 3-D and next time he hired more people instead of him working as director,editor,designer etc.The finale was the most anti-climactic i seen in years.Too bad,Rodriguez's imagination is so great but 3-D killed that.
An abomination
posted on 22 Aug 2009After hearing and reading many negative comments about the movie, I was hoping that the 3D special effects would compensate and make the movie worth watching. I was so wrong. I was completely underwhelmed by this movie - it has absolutely no redeeming qualities. The 3d effects never rose to a "wow, that was cool" quality. Aside from the effects being painful to watch, they just weren't impressive.But the worst aspect was the acting. Stallone's performance was so bad it was painful. And while Sabara was obviously trying his best, it's pretty clear that neither he nor Rodriguez had a clue about how to make the character appealing, believable, or worth watching. Even Salma Hayak, who is usually a treat to watch, gave a weak and uninspired performance. And Montalban's performance (or should I say his reciting of lines) should have been wrapped in Corinthian leather and buried before the final cut. The only performance that wasn't wretched was Clooney's outtake at the very end. Indeed, it was the best part of the movie.The dialog throughout the movie was atrocious - perhaps the worst ever committed to film (except for every Kevin Smith movie). It's clear that Rodriguez was uninspired in making this movie - despite the "familia" approach, there is no heart to this movie, no substance at all. Rodriguez should have quit doing everything himself and let someone else contribute, starting with a second draft of the script.I felt ripped off, but not as bad as my 8 and 12 year olds - they wanted to see a cool 3D movie, but they didn't get to see anything except a pointless, blurry piece of nonsense.Yeah, it was that bad.
