Critics Consensus

Burdened by a rote plot and unfunny scatological humor, All the Time in the World suggests that the Spy Kids franchise has run its course.

Read Critics Reviews

Anthony Quinn

Independent (UK)

The mind boggles before being lulled into a stupor of inanition by this latest instalment of Robert Rodriguez's increasingly cheap-looking franchise.

Rated: 1/5

Alison Willmore

Time Out

Rodriguez's family franchise about underage secret agents limps into its fourth installment with shiny CGI and frequent fart jokes to hold the attention spans of the underage and undemanding.

Rated: 1/5

Village Voice

Like its predecessors, a tediously cartoonish candy-colored rollercoaster.

The Post NZ

Despite boasting the now depressingly ubiquitous Hollywood family comedy moral of "spend more time with your kids", Spy Kids 4 does present a reasonably entertaining way of at least achieving 90 minutes towards that goal.

Rated: 3/5

The film looks like one of those kaleidoscopes where you twist and turn it and look at all the pretty images.

Rated: 1.5/4.0

With any luck, the pre-teen audience will have as big a lark as [Robert] Rodriguez but this fourth film does seem cruder and ruder than the first three in the series.

Rated: 2/5

Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom, e os efeitos especiais são ruins.

It's a film that clearly wasn't well made from the start, carrying the name Spy Kids isn't for everyone. At the end of the day it doesn't matter how many cameos you make, as long as you have a bad script and bad editing, things are going to fail no matter what. It's obvious that those who grew up with Spy Kids aren't the target audience for this movie, but the reality is that kids weren't fascinated by it either, and I think that says a lot about this.

Listen, we need to assume this specific movie was targeting 5-10-year-olds. There's no other way to explain why the plot, the dialogue, the premise and everything is so infantile. In no way does it hold the candle to the previous 3 instalments, especially the first two.

*Spy Kids 4: All the Time in the World* is a disappointing entry in the once-charming franchise. Normally, I'm a fan of Joel McHale and Jessica Alba, but this film's weak storyline undermines their talents. The plot is paper-thin and painfully predictable, while the new kids lack the chemistry and likability of the original cast. The villain, Tick Tock, with his irritating high-pitched voice, is more distracting than menacing, making it hard to take him seriously. Although the brief appearances of the original actors were a nice touch, they felt underused, leaving me longing for more of the magic they brought to the earlier films. The humor falls flat, the acting is subpar, and the over-the-top antics cross the line from fun to ridiculous. Unfortunately, this sequel misses the mark on what made the original Spy Kids films so enjoyable.

Rated 2 out of 5 stars
