I was apparently dealt a faulty card and could not pull up any discernible aromas other than those of flop sweat and mild embarrassment.

it's funny cos it's crap

terrible movie!!as soon as i saw the advert in a shopping center, i thought, "thatsgonna be a terrible movie". as soon as i saw the trailer i thought,"wow, that is going to a pathetic movie"i watched this movie with a friend and we spent the whole movieinsulting it, pointing out flaws, mistakes and holes (which came upoften), bad acting and basically predicting the entire movie, which wasvery easy.this movie was a miserable effort, and the only reason i gave it 2/10was because the dog Argonaut was absolutelyHILARIOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUS, loved that British accent and his smartass attitude. if not for him, it would have been a 1/10.

It's much inferior to the earlier films, though kids will probably like it.

Robert Rodriguez caring about the kids!

I've always loved Robert Rodriguez for making Grindhouse films, andvery violent films and then making films that appeal to adults andchildren. Now if you go to this film thinking you're going to see thebest film of the year, then don't go to see this film. If you go tothis film knowing you're going to see a fun film then go and see it.This isn't as good as the other three films, but Robert Rodriguez hasstill made a good enough film. It's one that does appeal a lot tochildren, but it's still got the jokes in there for the adults. Thewhole Aroma-Scope thing is good, but some of the things all smelt thesame and you have to scratch quite a bit to get the actual smell. The3D in this was good, the scenes when there are action were good. RickyGervais as the dog is brilliant and he gets most of the laughs in thefilm, just from some of the lines he says. There's a lot of poop andfart jokes in there, but I guess they are to make the kids laugh. Notthe best Spy Kids film yet, not as good as the first three, but stillone that I did enjoy! And there's a hint of Spy Kids 5, but we willjust have to wait and see what happens.

Time has really not been kind to this series. It wasn't missed, and the new film is loud, crass, and annoying.(Content Review for Parents also available)

Robert Rodriquez delivers another irritating Spy Kids movie, Spy Kids: All The Time In The World in 4D, with the redundant gimmick of scratch and sniff cards, designed to reveal on-screen aromas. Well, I didn't smell turkey. In fact, I smelt nothing.

Sadly it's all fart jokes and smart-alec preteens - the stuff that can make taking kids to the pictures a chore.

The Spy Kids series once seemed charmingly homemade. These days, it feels less charmingly homemade than maddeningly amateurish.

Every bit as enjoyable as the first three!

Anyone who hates this movie as much as some of the previous reviewersdo, has obviously forgotten what it's like to be a kid.The latest addition to the Spy Kids collection has at its core thevalues that all the previous movies had as well - it's all about kidsbecoming more mature, and about pulling together as a family. Sure, Icould do without quite as many fart gags, but I never liked those whenI was a kid, either. Featuring Jessica Alba as Marissa Cortez Wilson,and Alexa Vega and Daryl Sabara returning once again as a grown upCarmen and Juni Cortez - the original Spy Kids - this movie has somegreat action sequences and special effects, and it all adds up to agreat experience for kids of all ages - even kids who are all grown up.I loved all three previous Spy Kids films, and even primed myself bywatching them again this past week. I took my 15 year old daughter tosee this one for her birthday today, and she absolutely loved it, asdid I. She hasn't seen all three of the other ones, so she didn'trecognise any of the cool gadgets at the OSS' Spy Kids Division, butthat didn't keep her from having a really good time. I hadn't watched amovie in 3D in probably 30 years - back when you had to wear thosegoofy green and red cardboard glasses, and if you didn't wear theglasses you couldn't make any sense of the picture - so watching thisin the relatively new RealD 3D format was a real treat.Score: One point off for the modernized version of the failed"SmelloVision." My daughter and I both decided to abandon the "AromaScope" cards after the first three scents really didn't smell like muchof anything. But a bonus point at the same time because unlikeSmelloVision, which blasted the smells right in your face, now you havethe option of not using the scratch-and-sniff cards if you don't wantto. So one point down, and one point up. But one point off for havingjust too many jokes and gags based on bodily functions. The movie wouldhave been just fine without them. I give it an 9 out of 10.

Farty fun for kids

I went to see this 4th entry in Robert Rodrigez' Spy Kkids series witha 9 year old and a 13 year old, and they thoroughly enjoyed it. Theyenjoyed the story and the action, and they laughed at the slapstick,and the humour (much of which involved unsavoury smells and substancesemanating from a dog and a baby). This film was pretty much pitchedstraight at them, and worked very successfully - on that level I mustjudge it a critical success.Personally, as an adult male, Jessica Alba in tight leather is probablythe high point of this movie, although I have to say that she is veryready to make herself the butt of sight gags. Apart from that it ismildly, but not greatly, entertaining (I find fart jokes funny, so thatwas a plus).Rodriguez has fun playing with 3D - the use in this film is far moregimmicky than in most of the other 3D movies over the last two or threeyears.To address one of the criticisms levelled at this movie: yes, themessage is one that we have seen a hundred times in movies before. Butthat's us oldies - if you're 10, then you may well never haveencountered that message before.

No matter how many dimensions you slap on the poster, there's no accounting for lazy workmanship. Can Robert Rodriguez please make Sin City 2 now?

Let's make things clear right now: Spy Kids: All the Time in the World is juvenile, rough around the edges, and frequently clumsy. And yet...and yet...the film is so likably innocuous and unsuspectingly wise that it works better than it should.

It smells . . .

"I don't like to go to the movies to see violence or some kind of spything with all kinds of information you have to assimilate tounderstand the plot." Pia ZadoraThe scratch and sniff card accompanying each admission to Spy Kids: Allthe Time in the World in 4D is one of the most coherent parts of theexperience. Eight times sniffing with some barely discernible smellsmakes sense, so to speak, if you're writer/director Robert Rodrigueztrying to outdo the vibe of his El mariachi or even a previous Spy Kidmovie. He needs antihistamine for clarity of purpose and unity ofstory.Jessica Alba is called back to service as a spy to stop the Time Keeperfrom taking the world's time so he can go back to his dad. Straight outof Bat Man's Joker. Oedipus this is not although the film would havedone well to explore more fully the Freudian undercurrents. At best,Rodriquez sprinkles around a kid's vomit, a dog's flatulence, and adirty diaper for laughs and for critics like me to discover hiddenmeanings (I'm still thinking). New spy-step kids help pregnant Marissa in the fight while feckless dad(Joel McHale), a TV spy catcher, is sidelined with identity issues thatSophocles and Freud would have appreciated. Even old spy kids return,but to no avail because the plot is a series of set pieces with somenifty graphics but no depth.The "super rich sensory multidimensional experience" promised by atalking dog in the beginning of the film doesn't quite jibe with what Iheard a young boy in the men's room say to his friend: "What a cheesymovie!"That's as bald an indictment as I have heard about any filmaimed at this 10 year old. Although the effects are not cheesy, thestory line and characters are. Robert Rodriquez is not, at least when he's not cranking out his fourthSpy Kids.

Feels more like straight-to-DVD filler than a chapter in one of the last decade's most entertaining and sophisticated family-film franchises.

Average Film

"Spy Kids: All the Time in the World in 4D" does not have interestingend it's little dis-pointed if you watch all spy kids movies. Story iscreated only for kids. The film has good 3D effect and from the AromaScope is good. Watch it in 4D you will like it. Average film for me.card of 4D has good smell , but only children will love it. for me thisfilm is Average film. 5 points from me. If you want good time with yourchildren then go go go... At an innocuous hour and a half, theconnect-the-dots simplicity of the plot goes down smoothly, while theoft-recited platitudes about family and time actually hold some watergiven that most of them are being recited— and learned by—children. Asfar as babysitting devices go, you could do far worse. Visual effectsrange from passable to pitiful, and the film has the overall look of adirect-to-video quickie.

It simply entertains at a basic level without leaving a lasting impression.

The Vidiot Reviews...

Spy Kids: All the Time in the World in 4DWhen you've got two active adolescent agents in your home, you've gotto ensure you have plenty of Flintstones Cyanide Pills on hand.Fortunately, the step mom in this family adventure is anex-intelligencer.Trading in her cloak and dagger for diapers, femme fatale turnedhousewife Marissa (Jessica Alba) is called back into action after thevillainous Timekeeper (Jeremy Piven) begins to steal time.But when the Timekeeper targets her stepchildren (Rowan Blanchard,Mason Cook), Marissa must divulge her past, which ultimately leads totheir tutelage under a former Spy Kid (Alexa Vega).Now, the new recruits and their robot dog (Ricky Gervais) must stop theTimekeeper before it's too late.The fourth installment of the Spy Kids franchise, All the Time in theWorld is a fart infused, infantile, chroma keyed atrocity. Besides, as an undercover child agent, wouldn't most of yourassignments involve you luring in online predators? (Red Light)

The stars of the old Spy Kids movies are no longer kids, of course. Spy Kids 3D: Game Over was released way back in 2003.
