- 67Austin ChronicleMarc SavlovAustin ChronicleMarc SavlovFar more coherent than its immediate predecessor, Spy Kids: All the Time in the World in 4D benefits greatly from its two likable young leads and some of the series' wittiest, pun-filled writing.
- 60Boxoffice MagazineSara Maria VizcarrondoBoxoffice MagazineSara Maria VizcarrondoFar more charming, quick-witted and high spirited than anyone could have expected...for a film that didn't screen for press. It's gimmicky up the wazoo (not just 3D, but scratch-and-sniff "Aroma-Scope" cards handed out at screenings) and it's all the better for it.
- 50MovielineMichelle OrangeMovielineMichelle OrangeThe film is being released in both 2- and 3-D, and from what I could tell the 3-D version is still almost 50-50. What use is made of the technology is hardly worth the effort, unless you've always wanted to experience a cascade of cheesies in 3-D.
- 50Chicago ReaderChicago ReaderThe visual effects are as gleefully shoddy as ever, and the playful ideas sometimes achieve a dreamlike suggestiveness.
- 38Orlando SentinelRoger MooreOrlando SentinelRoger MooreNobody has much that's funny to say or cool to do. Even the spy gadgets are lame.
- 38Boston GlobeTom RussoBoston GlobeTom RussoAlba, meanwhile, is again ridiculously shoehorned into a comedy gig, although she does have an amusing opening bit spying while nine months pregnant. If only diaper bomb gags weren't the inevitable follow-up.
- 33The A.V. ClubNathan RabinThe A.V. ClubNathan RabinThe Spy Kids series once seemed charmingly homemade. These days, it feels less charmingly homemade than maddeningly amateurish.
- 30The Hollywood ReporterTodd McCarthyThe Hollywood ReporterTodd McCarthyArriving eight years after the lame third installment in Dimension's profitable series, this seems like far too little way too late.
