Better than most
It kills me to see that people are rating childrens and young teenage movies as adults I mean give the kids a break I dont think their trying to win an award for it, I think they just want to make a good kids movie to make them laugh and have fun. This movie was very funny and had a story line that viewers have seen a lot of but with a big twist like 12 year old kids robbing a bank and doing a great job doing it. The talent in this movie suprised me especially by actors Corbin Bleu/Austin and Max Thieriot/Gus but not to much by kristen stewart, after seeing her in panic room with jodie foster it was no secret she was good and has potential to be a big star sooner or later. These kids execute in every part of this movie. I hate giving away pieces of the movie but the only thing that should be said is this is a great movie for kids, teens, and any adult with a sense of humor dont let the low grades slapped on this movie stop you from watching it because you'll miss something good. I have seen the cody banks movies and the spy kids and so on those were ok but this movie is a lot better and they should make a second part.

Fun Kid to watch with the kids
I just watched this movie with my two boys (ages 11 and 8) and while there are holes in the plot and technical continuity to drive a truck through, as a tween-ager action flick this movie is great. I liked it better than the Spy Kids series.

The characters are very likable (with the exception of when Maddy manipulates the two boys into helping her rob the bank by lying about loving them) and though it is hard to get behind robbing the bank, it is definitely for a good cause -- to save her dad who Maddy idolizes. And when she does steal the money, she doesn't take any more than is actually needed. As one of the lines points out -- there was 24 million dollars in the vault; why would anyone just take 250K?

The ending is heartwarming and leaves you with that warm fuzzy feeling.

If you are looking for an action flick that you and your kids can enjoy together, then this is a good one.

A Good Movie
Yeah, so maybe this is not the message you want to send to kids, but it is a movie. A good movie with a story behind it. Certaintly adults don't care much for it. "They Shouldn't" It's a kids movie. I recomend you watch is more than once before you judge it. Besides Its not like Children don't hear about theft on the news.
