CRITIC REVIEWS
Lew Irwin
Catch That Kid, which Roger Ebert describes as a heist movie involving 12-year-old kids, is being compared with Robert Rodriguez's Spy Kids -- and found wanting. Compared with that movie, writes Megan Lehmann in the New York Post, it's a prosaic, wannabe effort. Elizabeth Weitzman in the New York Daily News calls it an entirely uninspired Spy Kids wanna-be. Rick Groen in the Toronto Globe and Mail comments that Spy Kids was a nice commercial mix of tall-tale fun and bright whimsy. This is Neither. Ellen Fox in the Chicago Tribune says that Catch That Kid has none of the creativity or heart of Spy Kids, but ... is aiming for the same action audience. And Christy Lemire of the Associated Press describes it as a poor man's Spy Kids. But Ty Burr of the Boston Globe took his own kids to the screen, and when he asked them if they liked it, they replied, Yeah! Four stars! Sadly, writes Burr, this is what happens when your father is a film critic.

Story's a little weak. My wife liked it. I thought it was okay but would not recommend it unless you have nothing better to watch.
