Like Jaws 4 and Superman IV: The Quest For Peace. Spy Kids 4 or "Spy Kids: All The Time In The World" is a Franchise killer. Although it was a moderate financial success against its $27 million budget. It is such a poor movie, it ended any interest in any future movies.
Mason Cook (in his first movie) and Rowan Blanchard (in her 2nd) are not as annoying as most child actors and are certainly cute enough, but they lack the chemistry that Alexa Vega and Daryl Sabra had in the first three movies.
So Jessica Alba is pretty much left to carry the movie on her own. She tries hard but the movie is missing some of the charm and magic that made the first movies so likable. It also misses the talents of Antonio Banderas and Carla Gugino.
I give it 4/10 1 for Alba, 1 for Vega. 1 for Sarba, and 1 for the kids
I'm sure most kids will like it, mine certainly enjoyed it, just not as much as the original three.

Kids will get a kick out if it, but it's not a patch on the first movies
Robert Rodriguez has still got the magic !
Yes, Robert hasn't lost his touch. When a man has that much talent and imagination, you wonder how long he can keep it up. He is a genius, and I don't use that word lightly. He has invented a new kind of movie here, with the spy kids series. A movie that empowers children instead of what Hollywood has always done with children's movies. The spy kids movies are a refreshing change and I'm glad to see it continuing. The first three were ground breaking and very special. I was so glad to see that this one lives up to that. Although not as good as the first two, which were superb, I rate it about the same as the third one. It may be hard for some to embrace the new cast, which happens every time a new James Bond is cast. I think everyone is just as likable as the originals. Reviews that cut down the acting, plot or whatever don't understand what Rodriguez has done. This movie, as with the other three, is for children and people who love children. If you don't consider yourself in one of those categories then you won't get it.
