Well I was expecting some pants story line of an evil emporer trying to take over the world and then a group of kids from an elite gang stopping him. I was close.
An evil children's TV producer makes and army of children to destroy the world and 007 style agents have been sent to stop them but they have been turned into mere puppets of the evil TV broadcasts. Thats when Antonio Banderas and co. come into play. He and his wife have hidden it from there kids that they are spies and they go off to stop the evil vilain themselves but like the other secret agents they get caught.
The children are sent to a safe house in the meantime, where they find lots of cool gadgets and other stuff. This is when the 3rd brain comes into play. This unique "brain" can give the children army the intelligence they need to match there super strength and as it happens Antonio Banderas was the one who invented the brain, and by coincidence he hid it in the safe house his children were sent to. Now i didnt see that one coming!
The film follows the children through their gadget filled adventure where as you would expect have their parents freed and Antonio gets his famous, "original", final confrontation with the criminal master mind.
It's a very good family film and if nothing else was on I think I would watch it.

I too, thought this film would be pants but was infact quite impressed, that'll teach me for groaning about going out to the cinema with my family! Thanks and cheers ~M~
Advantages: Suitable for everyone, but unusually enjoyable. Take your kids and actually enjoy it yourself too. Disadvantages: A little saccahrin in places, but rises above this at the end/
