      Sean P. Means Film.com I like Disney-style adolescent adventures and I like The Sopranos, but, unlike peanut butter and chocolate, these are not two great tastes that taste great together. Rated: 2/4 Sep 26, 2008 Full Review Tim Cogshell Boxoffice Magazine One of the best action movies you and your kids could see this summer. At least look for it on video. Rated: 3/5 Aug 29, 2008 Full Review Andrew L. Urban Urban Cinefile Don't be fooled by the Kids in the title, this is one terrific action drama, with a few comedic grace notes Mar 21, 2009 Full Review Robert W. Butler Kansas City Star It's like two stories unfolding in parallel universes. Rated: 2.5/4 Oct 3, 2008 Full Review Jeff Vice Deseret News (Salt Lake City) At times it's a rather light-hearted family adventure. But parts of it also become a mean-spirited crime thriller. That light-dark contrast doesn't quite work. Rated: 2/4 Sep 12, 2008 Full Review Bruce Bennett Spectrum (St. George, Utah) One of the summer's nicest surprises..a mostly family-friendly adventure that doesn't rely on superheroes or science fiction to get your pulse racing... Rated: B+ Aug 15, 2008 Full Review Read all reviews
