Back To Index Spy Kids 3-D: Game Over
 Barnes & Noble 3-D or not 3-D? This features-packed two-disc set gives you the option. The two-dimensional version (retitled simply as Spy Kids 3) omits Fegan Floops prologue and the glasses-on-and-off cues. The three-dimensional version may be harder on the eyes, but the state-of-the-art 3-D effects will distract viewers from the underwhelming story. Game Over completes Robert Rodriguezs Spy Kids trilogy, although it is less a sequel than a Juni Cortez (Daryl Sabara) spin-off. The ex-secret agent turned pint-sized private eye returns to the fold when his sister Carmen (Alexa Vega) becomes trapped inside a computer game. Junis mission: Enter the game, progress to the unwinnable Level 5, and stop the Toymaker (Sylvester Stallone) before he enslaves the worlds youth. 3-D is not the optimum way to view a film, but weve come a long way since the ping-pong-paddling barker in House of Wax -- or even "Dr. Tongue’s 3-D House of Stewardesses" on SCTV. Pogo-hopping frogs and other extreme virtual thrills spill off the screen. Unfortunately, the rest of the Cortez clan is reduced to mere cameos. The lone exception is Junis wheelchair-bound grandfather (a game Ricardo Montalban), who has some unfinished business with the Toymaker. No doubt, Rodriguez wanted to do for Stallone what Tarantino did for John Travolta, but the Italian Stallion remains a little rocky when it comes to comedy. Still, the ceaselessly inventive Rodriguez keeps the 3-D effects and the whiz-bang action set pieces coming. By the time Game is over, bedazzled young viewers will want to play it again.
