This DVD is a follow on from the original Cody Banks which my children did enjoy. The original film portrayed the life of a child CIA agent and the scrapes and cases he worked on and this film is a follow on.
The story is set in London after Cody was sent on assignment to find an errant former agent who had nasty plans up his sleeve to take over the world with the aid of a device implanted in World Leaders that made them do his bidding.
Cody's cover means he has to go to a musical school where there just so happens to be a Scotland Yard agent (also undercover but a lot better musician!)
Fun and games entail including the use of a brace that transmits, sweets that explode and other Spy items and eventually Cody's cover is blown.
Hysterical scenes then follow with the usual smart fights, comical dialogue and of course the required smashing of pottery and china.
Frankie Muniz plays Cody Banks very well with perfect comic delivery and the expressions to go with it.
Hannah Spearitt (of S club Fame) does well in her role as the Teen division Scotland Yard agent and the boys in my family certainly enjoyed seeing her on the screen.
Keith Allen ( the errant CIA agent) is perfectly suited to the role and on that basis I would hope to see him in more films.
All in all, it is an entertaining movie and one the children will enjoy but only the younger ones, I think the teens might find it a little over the top
