Spy Kids

Spy Kids (2001) is Robert Rodriguez's family spy adventure you can watch online on iFILM. Equal parts comedy, action and gadget-packed fun for kids and parents alike.

Years ago, Gregorio and Ingrid Cortez were elite agents from rival countries, each assigned to take the other out. They married instead, walked away from the job and raised two children. Carmen and Juni think their mom and dad are the most boring people on earth. That myth falls apart when the Cortez's old colleagues start vanishing and the parents themselves are kidnapped. Saving them is now up to the kids, armed with the secret spy gear stashed in the family workshop, while the villain Fegan Floop builds an army of robot doubles. Antonio Banderas and Carla Gugino play the parents, with Alexa PenaVega and Daryl Sabara as Carmen and Juni, plus Alan Cumming, Tony Shalhoub and Danny Trejo.

Rodriguez pulled off a rare thing: a real spy caper where the heroes are grade-schoolers and the gadgets are as goofy as toys. The film kicked off a whole franchise. Stream Spy Kids (2001) online on iFILM.
