Summary: What a GREAT 3-D experience
Review: Strongly Recomended! I loved this movie, the 3-D experience makes you feel like your in the game on a journey to rescue Carman along side Juni. I really enjoyed the story line as well, I wouldn't change a thing!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Lame. A dissapointment.
Review: On the good side, very young children, presumably the target audience, will like the novelty of watching the screen while wearing red and blue glasses. However, I took my nine-year-old boy to see this and he had little to say about it afterwards. Not a good sign.

The bad.
There's very little in the way of a story here that makes any sense. The 3D special effects are unimpressive and in some parts they just annoy. The director would have been better off forgetting the special effects and should have put a lot more effort into developing some kind of a story. It seemed as if they started with the idea of making a movie for 3D and then threw together a very weak story and dialog over the weekend to accommodate that.

To sum it up, I'd say that this movie is just not interesting. There's no point during the film where you actually care about whatever it is that this movie is supposed to be about. There is very little here in the way of humor or drama or any kind of a cohesive story. This is definitely the type of film that gives sequels their deservedly bad name.

If you are deciding between two movies to take your kids to I'd pass on this one for now.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: 3-Duh
Review: In 30 words or less...Juni has to save Carmen. Hard on the eyes, weak plot, 3-D technology disappointing, but good wholesome fun for the whole family. Positive messages bring review up to 3 stars.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: not that great
Review: You would think with all the technological advances, someone could approve upon the 3-D format. The 3-D portions of the film weren't really as great as the commercial makes you think they will be and the color was dull.
The plot itself wasn't that exciting either. I took 2 eight year olds with me and neither of them cared for the movie either.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: It's just too bad.
Review: In this latest installment of the Spy Kids franchise, it's painfully obvious that the decline shown in Spy Kids 2 is moving along faster than a mom unplugging your Xbox game. Where the original was fun, goofy and life affirming, Spy Kids 3-D is over-blown and lacking in any feeling and consistency.

Oh, the actors are having a blast, but it just doesn't translate to the audience. The only great moment was Elijah Wood's cameo as "The Guy". The most painful part was watching Stallone on screen at the same time as four different characters. Not even Ricardo Montalban acting in his best earnest grandparent mode could bring the movie to any heights.

And the 3-D? They used the old technology of red in one eye and blue in the other which causes the film's colors to be muted and the film to darken inappropriately. Oh, I'm sure that kids will get a blast putting on and taking off their glasses when the film tells them, but when you have polarization technology to achieve the same effect without the headache, why use such an antiquated format? Game over is right.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Historical Achievement!
Review: Mankind has truly taken a step into the technological future with "Spy Kids 3-D: Game Over" and it's highly creative genius! The little boy Juni Cortez (Daryl Sabara) gave up the O.S.S. to do private investigator work, but his sister Carmen (Alexa Vega) tried to play the evil Toymaker's (Sylvester Stallord) video game. She lost because she couldn't handle the wizardry of the diabolical genius. Then Juni came back to save his sister and the world. That's how extensive and intricate the plot of the story really is. Duh. The boy goes through these levels with computer nerds and he is the main star, but not quite. Evil Toymaker is the best character in this movie and he deserved an Oscar nomination for all FIVE of his roles. Only Sylvester Stallord can truly dominate a motion picture like this! George Clooney does his best Stallord impression and scores big time. Kudos to you man. Yes, every person in the world should see this historical achievement. The set designs were more impressive than any "Star Wars" movie and the acting was phenomenal, especially Sylvester Stallord's. All of that raw emotion! Those kids can move! They were racing at 300 mph, surfing on lava, fighting with glowing sticks! The 3-D is monumental and it hasn't been this great since who knows! What an accomplishment! Robert Rodriguez did all of this stuff in his garage, can you believe that! I'm in awe and I have mad appreciation for everybody in this movie! Blissful harmony, rejoice!

Summary: Spy Kids: Series Over
Review: Even though it was targeted at my age group, it was awful. The 3-d effects are awful. I mean, the color is awful, and one of the people I was watching it with got sick from the glasses. It seams to be be parodying the matrix by having 'the guy,' it takes place in a cumputer room, one thing I found in common is the line 'there is no spoon,' the movie feels like 'there is no plot.' Acting is awful in this. When I first heard that it was shot in only a month in a half, I was impressed. After I saw it, I could not believe it took so long to shoot it.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: KINDA GOOD
Review: I DONT LIKE IT AS MUCH AS THE FIRST TWO,BUT IT`S PRETTY COOL BECAUSE IT`S IN 3 DIMENSIONS!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: A Lot Different Than The First Two
Review: Although it does bring back some old characters toward the end of the film, this movie isn't that great. It does have some pretty good fighting scenes, but most of it is just plain dull. The sotry line isn't that great, either.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A kid's second review
Review: CHEESY AND STUDID , from the first sec of this movie it has never stop to being a stupid movie, yet for some reason after 30 mins and so the movie successfully shut me up to ask that question again, as indeed the idea of this movie IS about cheesiness and stupidity and all the fun about that. One must ask how could I make such kindda applause to appreciate stupidity. The reason? the 3D and real human performance are techniqily impossble before but it does on this one that they merch seamlessly and I mean totally seamless. Has anyone seen "skycaptain and the world of tommorrow"? in that movie, except for the actors everything else is done 3D but its a totally boring movie since u can tell which part is human and which are 3D and there is no real actions in the whole movie. What spykids 3D does is to successfully to make real people interact with non exsiting 3D object and it does make u think they are interacting with each other in the movie, this is really the next big step toward cinema fictions. And come on people just admit it yourself even how stupid the script and plot that sounds, IT IS fun to watch, you know it does just ask your heart. To just watch the robot fight, the racing scene are worth the money. I would rate this movie the best action movie of 2004 right next to HP and bourne supremacy
