Were I a strapping young lad of 10, I would have just seen the perfect movie. Alas, I am a few years older than that prime age, so instead I saw an amusing family adventure that dares to bring joy, action and wonder to the movie screen without dipping numerous body parts in bubbling vats of human blood. The triumphant film in question is none other than Spy Kids, the action-packed thriller with absolutely zero scenes featuring dismemberment or decapitations. Spy Kids is created in much the same spirit as these pervious Rodriguez films, except that it stars a bunch of kids who don't become chopped into tiny pieces of flesh and there aren't any half-naked women flashing their breasts at the screen. Spy Kids is a neat flick.
