    Spy Kids and Sharkboy and Lavagirl were always some of my favorite movies as a kid and honestly I’m so glad kids nowadays are still able to experience them in a similar way. Kids need to have media made for them that doesn’t treat them like they’re infants but also doesn’t treat them like teens or adults. Sometimes kids just want movies that are fun adventures that never talk down to them and show that, hey kids have a little power too!
    Those movies have aged horribly, but does that even matter when they’re still fun adventures that don’t take themselves seriously?

    The more "realistic", less cartoony route was probably the safest decision for the reboot. I work with elementary school kids (mainly 3rd graders, who were born in *2015* if you can belive it) and they all grew up with really good CGI, they're way more keen on what does and doesn't look "right" than how we were as kids. Hell, I was talking to a bunch of kids about how the original godzilla movies were made with miniature cities and showing them pictures and this eight year old popped up about how physical props look better than CGI (which I agreed with, but damn I did not think about those things as a kid).
    I do love the cartoony style of spy kids, and while I totally think making effects that look both cartoony and believable is something that can absolutely be done, that's a balance that needs care - especially when targeting kids that were raised on modern marvel movies and are way more cued into what does and doesn't look "right" than we ever were.
    So while it's not my favorite, I totally get why they'd go in this direction and I hope it pays off. And if it gets sequels.... Fingers crossed for maybe a little more color in their spy gear going forward lol

    Different perspective here as a female spy kids enjoyer; full disclosure haven't seen the reboot and probably won't as a grown person but, so many kids movies with brother-sister duos have the "good girl who does no wrong" and even as a kid it was tiring. I liked the original spy kids because Carmen was kind of an asshole at times and wasn't just "the good one fixing problems". More sibling kids movies where the girl is the problem lmao

    Personally I think Spy Kids 4 should have been a full reboot instead of a soft reboot/sequel because there was no reason for it not to be other than nostalgia. However I'm glad this is a full reboot instead of a continuation and although I don't really for it because it reminds me to much of the previous movies AND The Adventures of Shark Boy & Lava Girl, I hope a few more movies get made and they start to do their own thing without relying too much on the previous movies.

    3:56 when you mentioned the bad guy using a game sounds similar to Spy Kids 3 where they used a game to keep the players sucked in.

    Also, I disagree. The second was the greatest. When all the kids were beating a** at the banquet! Then later when Carmen and Juni were fighting the skeletons! And they were competing with the Giggles siblings! I loved it.
    I also disagree that the third movie looks bad in 2d. When I watch it I'm still in awe today - but I definitely have a bias towards Spy Kids. When everyone from their past comes to help save the day from Sylvester Stallone, I always hoot and holler. You can't tell me anything bad about Spy Kids.

      I see where you're coming from. That's just Robert Rodriguez's style though. He likes to work with the smallest budget he can on purpose and stretch every dollar as far as possible to innovate camerawork and himself/crew/actors. The end result and feel of it is something I think people either like or don't lol his very first film he spent 7k and it made a few mil, but that was before he was famous. His budgets are much bigger now but he still likes to work small.

    Oh right...the credits of 5 made me have a mini panic attack when i realized the director's tiny little kid wrote and produced it with him because....he's an adult now, which made me feel old. I cried and laughed while looking at my kid and telling her how old i was to which she comedically panicked and said, "ahhh! Pull yourself out of it dam* it! Snap out! You're 187! Why do you keep thinking you're only 31?"

    I think it's an incomplete argument to say "That was your _____, this is their ______", as if the two versions are mutually exclusive, especially for a kid. In this era when everything is at a click of a distance, they can enjoy it in the same way, because they won't really care about the bits of generational differences, just having a good time.
    Even I really loved, and still do, movies like Back to The Future and I didn't say "This isn't my SiFi" or played Super Mario World when I had my Xbox 360 saying "This isn't my game generation".
    However, criticism is important to get quality products. Reboots, remakes, whatever, they all need to at least give you something at the end and enjoy the ride, it's what we should focus on.

    How to Eat Fried Worms is underrated. Tbh late 90s/early 2000s kids never really had kids movie that hit from early 2010s that was dcoms and nick movies. Some that had the heart was direct to dvd movies and I liked those types of movies back in the day they can hit you in the heart.

    I love watching your videos and hearing your input! I absolutely LOVED the second spy kids and it’s still a classic (in my opinion) to this day. I totally agree with what you said about how people don’t want to accept anything that’s new for a rebooted franchise when we are clearly not the target audience for that intended film (unless marketed as otherwise). For example, with the new iCarly, I would argue that - with that specific reboot - yes, it’s for the audience that grew up with that show. Everything else, they’re trying something new. People who get so hurt over reboots when they’re not marketed towards them … it’s not that deep 🤣🤣
    Also Robert Rodriguez is like the only notable alumni from the high school I graduated from so I’ll mention that to people every now and then just because 🤣

    15:27 I think what they’re trying to say is “making this was a bad decision “ I like going back and revisiting old properties as much is the next guy but to do it continuously, and to do it in a way that sucks in comparison to the original, with the clear intent, to make money being at the forefront of these reboot projects, it really feels like the entire film industry has stagnated and is incapable of creating something new. They’re saying in a stupid way but these people feel they have connection to the world these stories take place in. They say “you ruined my childhood “ because they’re seeing something that they felt was theirs be taken and given to the next generation. These people are admittedly stuck in the past but there should definitely be some concern over whether all of our movies and TV shows devolve into being a series of references and Easter eggs instead of an actual story

    always hate the " its a kids movie its not meant for adults " argument
    when people have kids they sit and watch the movie with them most of the time
    so the content has to be something competent to some extent
    not to mention the whole point of using the same i.p most of the time is so the the adult sees a familiar name and gauges it as something appropriate for their child to consume
    content meant for teaching kids how to read and write etc is probably the only time where it is actually solely for children

    This movie is leagues above All The Time In The World and 3D! In fact, I think it pushed its own quality to proudly be 3rd Place on the list of reboots! (2nd place, for me, is Pocket Monsters Horizons, which hasn’t released, but will definitely give Ash’s retirement and leave from the official show A whole new sparkle, and 1st is Bakugan Battle Planet… AS IF!!! BAKUGAN BATTLE BRAWLERS, NEW VESTROIYA, GUNDALIAN INVADERS AND MECHTANIUM SURGE FOR LIFE!!! Okay maybe not Gundalian Invaders and Mechtanium Surge but the first 2 seasons are what I’d give A Chef’s kiss. Now, the ACTUAL 1st Place Reboot’d be Soiaem High Life [Again, hasn’t come out, but I’m hoping it’ll be good.].)!

    My problem with the film is that it feels too dumb or has too many leaps of logics? like the kids are somehow better than spies who trained for years, when earlier we see the kids not being that great at being spies. They say just talk to the bad guys, its kinda a dumb lesson, because talking with bad guys to fix them is such an unrealistic lesson, and that to justify it they made a super contrived backstory for the villain. And how they deal with the badguy is dumb. They had a line where the boy said that the games never made him a good person, yet their solution to deal with the bad guy is trap him in his game to make him a better person? like based on what we saw the boy became a lying cheater because he idolized one of the characters in the game. Though maybe its my adult brain nit picking the movie's logic which a kid might not consider it.

    I was surprised at how much I enjoyed this new spy kids movie. The 2 things that really stuck out to me was, first, how grey it was. Everywhere they go nearly was so black and grey and boring to look at. Even the bad guys. The ending was the best part for me because it had the colours of the first movie. Even the house was grey. Which brings me to the second thing, set design. The first movie was so lived in and clearly each set was designed with such love and joy, and that was not present here. It really does take away from the whole.
