A fun film all around. I'm not going to say it was amazing, but it makes you realize not all kids movies have to be childish - plus James Spader, Leslie Mann and and William H. Macy make things fun for adults too.

This new children's feature from director Robert Rodriguez is quite interesting and worthwhile. While it's not a masterpiece or a new favorite, it reminded me that I liked Rodriguez's segment of Grindhouse better than Tarantino's. The kids in this are spectacular, and as long as you can transport yourself into being a kid again, you will enjoy this film.
