This is a ridiculous movie...and I mean that in the best possible way. It is so charming and campy and aware of how silly it is. The adult actors are clearly having a blast being silly, and it's amusing to see Antonio Banderas basically poking fun at his own image. And the two child stars are really unorthodox looking and quite a bit of fun...not at all typical, which is refreshing. The movie has cute gadgets, fun effects and is seldom too suspenseful, which is good for the youngest viewers. It really is sort of like a James Bond movie for the pre-teen set. (We all know the Bond movies are silly BUT adult fun...Spy Kids and I hope its sequels, is silly BUT child fun.) Yet it fun for adults, because it's so fast moving and high-spirited.

So... whats the film actually about?! PS there are other words than "Silly"! I would advice you to consult a thesaurus! Sorry to sound so harsh but you hardly spoke a word to tell us, the consumer why to watch this movie. Shane
