Summary: GREAT 3D~~TOO Much Anger From Cast is Obvious...
Review: Throughout the movie, you can see how the ENTIRE Cast is Angry& Tensed! Maybe Cuz THIS Is their LAST film in the series, and maybe cuz "Juni", is the ONLY Main Character? "The Cortez Family", ALL look Terribly OLDER, and BORING!.....Look, the ONLY "Good" thing about this movie , is the 3D effects. Oh, and "Carmen" has had SINGING lessons This Time around, to Once AGAIN, :( , "Sing" the Closing Spy Kids "song"!?! ...this is NOT worth renting, OR buying!!

Summary: How to Get Decent 3D Effects (It can be done!)
Review: We tried this first on our TV/DVD/Surround setup, and found the 3D effects to be awful at best. Following the setup instructions, we discovered the best viewing would be on a PC equipped with a DVD player, so we quickly shifted to our box running 1280 x 1024 resolution. Here are some quick tips on getting the most out of the 3D effects:(1) View the movie on a computer (unless you own an HDTV set, or possibly a great TV with component video input).
(2) Keep the room completely dark. We started watching in daylight, but finished that evening. The difference was astounding.
(3) Live with the color distortions. Overall, the 3D effects were decent and fun, but not amazing. There's a limit to what can be done with the red-blue technology chosen for this film. As for the film, the story was a bit underwhelming, but it was still entertaining (especially for our younger children). There are some good lessons about revenge, forgiveness, and cooperation. I found the "10-Minute Film School" featurette to be wonderful, especially regarding the demonstrations of adding sound effects to home movies. Overall, this was a decent film, but does not hold up well beside the first Spy Kids movie, to which I would have given 5 stars.

Summary: The 3d in SPY KIDS 3D
Review: *NOTE THIS REVIEW IS MORE ABOUT THE 3D THAN THE MOVIES PLOT ( WHICH THERE IS LITTLE OF )* Before you even bother to watch this DVD at home you need to take some things into account. If you wear glasses you are in trouble, it is very difficult to wear glasses and 3d glasses ( the glasses included are also very large and bulky so younger children may have problems with the glasses slipping off ). Next make sure you have a pretty damn good TV if you want reasonable 3d effect, a 100hz TV is great ( or plasma but only 5 people have them ). Make sure you connect you DVD through RGB cables for best picture quality, this will help improve the 3D. Also make sure you are sitting in a dark room as lights can cause problems with the 3D effect. ***The best way to watch SPY KIDS 3D is on your pc ! The resolution is higher and the 3D effect is almost 40% better than you'll see on tv*** Now how is the 3D is SPY KIDS 3D at home ? Well....it's ok. Expect nothing earth shattering if you have ever seen 3D before. All kinds of stuff is thrown out of the screen at the audience but you don't get the feeling of them being "right in front of your nose". Instead the best 3D effect is depth, the actors do stand out from the background very well, the effect is like a pop up book. Sometimes the 3D fails completely especially when the images are moving very quickly ( the megarace scene is very difficult to watch due to everything moving too fast, the 3D effect is lost ). SPY KIDS 3D uses the old red/blue glasses system which is not perfect. The movies colours in 3D are very strange, a kind of purple/green hue. Another problem with this system is the picture can become very foggy, so sometimes it can be difficult to pick out certain details. As for headaches, i didn't get a headache or eyestrain while watching this movie, but many people do, so if you feel headachy just pause the movie and rest your eyes for 5 minutes. This is a great introduction to 3D if you have never seen a 3D movie before. Also children will have great fun with the 3D. But if you have seen 3D before then you might feel a little let down by SPY KIDS 3D.

Summary: Great movie in 2-D only, 3-D gave us a splitting headache
Review: "SPY KIDS 3-D: Game Over" Despite the lack of some of my favorite characters from Spy Kids 1 and 2, and despite that my least favorite character(the young boy/brother "spy kid", Juni) is the main character in this movie, and despite the awful splitting headache the 3-D version gave my wife and I(my 2 children didn't suffer any headaches), we really loved Spy Kids 3-D. I've seen some of the negative reviews and I strongly disagree with them. SK3-D is action packed and loaded with fantastic special effects. I'm not exactly sure what some folks are looking for in a movie, but the title of this one should say it all(SPY KIDS). My kids love the entire trilogy, as do I, and as far as action movies go, they're very tame and for the most part they're family friendly.
2 thumbs up and a must have DVD for any action-movie fan that wants to sit down with the entire family. *WARNING* Just be careful of those dreaded 3-D glasses, there's a reason why there aren't many 3-D movies and last night I figured out why!

Summary: The worst "3-D" effects ever.
Review: Ever been to a 3-D movie at an IMAX theater? Great 3-D effects there,but this is a discrace. At the IMAX they give you 3-D classes that are CLEAR.The Spy kids movie gives you the old school red and blue."Whats so bad about that?" EVERYTHING! When you put on the glasses the screen turns to a colorful mess.In the commercial Juni's suite is yellow,but in the movies with your glasses his suite is red or orange or something.Everyone's suite is the wrong color.Maybe you think:"Ew,I don't want to watch the movie like this." Good idea right?WRONG! If you take off your "3-D" glasses,you will be sent to blurry oblivion.So it's your pick:terrible colors or blurry to the max. Thank god the DVD version has the movie in a 2-D option. And for you video game lovers,this movie talks a little bit about Metroid and Halo. :)

Summary: Short, to the point, and fun.
Review: First, if the 3D effect is important to you, STAY AWAY from the VHS version. No 3D effects on that at all. As far as the DVD itself is concerned, it has all you need to enjoy this roller-coaster of a movie. Up front, this movie is pure dreck. Every point in the plot is worthless. Thin and silly. But, just like one of my other favorite movies 'SPEED' with our Matrix-man Keanu Reeves, this movie is flat-out fast-paced and fun. The 3D effects were completely unnecessary, but also a nice novelty. The ending went completely against the grain of the typical action flick. Putting the 'Grandfather' (Richardo Montalban) up against the 'Bad guy' ( Sylvester Stallone). This movie is seriously short. 1 hour and 12 minutes + credits. That's it. But, it's a wild ride that you will likely watch many times over. Not as good as part one of the series, but, better than part two in my humble opinion.

Summary: a laugh a minute great special effects
Review: roberto rodriguez has done it again, for me anyway! now i've got the el mariachi trilogy, and all 3 spy kids dvds. this new one, in 3d (or a 2nd disc in 2d) is incredibly paced with rodriguez' usual frenetic pace, but the 3d effects are really awesome, as is the ac-3 sound, musical score, etc. all done by mr. rodriguez himself-he obviously loves the movie industry and uses it to his wildly imaginative abilities-for sheer fun that can be enjoyed over and over again by everyone in the household, grab this 2 dvd set-you'll not be let down.

Summary: Another 3-D Bomb
Review: Like any other 3-D film, "Spy Kids 3-D" simply tries to wow viewers with the 3-D effects. That's it. Everything else about filmmaking pretty much goes out the window. That said, "Spy Kids 3-D" stands as a shoddy film. The first two "Spy Kids" films were good family movies. They had decent stories, likeable characters, and charm. None of those qualities are found here. Instead they are replaced with the 3-D eye candy. The characters that were so likeable in the first two movies are about as flat as cardboard, which is ridiculous because they could have developed them during their venture in the 3-D world. The character that could have developed the most was Juni. Remember that he's "retired" at the outset meaning they could have possibly concentrated on the challenges he faces in getting back into the OSS mold while at the same time completing his mission. Unfortunately, that didn't happen. The plot is not a very creative one, combining basic elements from the "The Matrix" and "Tron" (the concept of the game controlling kids minds and Juni going into it). Good story developments are sorely missing here, too. What composes the story is just the various video-game sequences that Juni has to go through during his mission. The scenes are fairly impressive but not enough to make the plot any better. As for Sylvester Stallone, who plays the Toymaker, all I can say for him is that he wasted his time. His role was very limited which makes you wonder why he even bothered taking part in this. Unlike the previous two villains in the series, Floop and Donovan, he doesn't come across as very interesting. Overall, don't bother with this entry. I'll be generous and give this 2 stars (it probably deserves 1). Stick with the first two movies and forget this 3-D misfire. If director Rodriguez decides to create a 4th installment, I wish him luck because at the moment it's Game Over for this franchise.

Summary: DVD 3D effect isn't ready for prime time
Review: Those who are into Spy Kids no what to expect and will probably like this one. I was disappointed with the 3D effect in the DVD which is sometimes pretty good and other times not so hot. There are scenes in which the red and blue images converge correctly in the foreground, but not in the background. And, the overall darkness of the picture and strain on the eyes that others have commented about work against the overall effect that 3D thrill seekers are hoping for. Towards the end of the movie, the unexpected use of the word "Corinthian" by Ricardo Montalban provided an instant trip back to the 80's car commercials he did, when he would describe Chrysler's "Corinthian Leather" interiors. A nice touch for the older viewers!
