My Spy (2020)
"What is this? I don't like it."
After 3 minutes one of my sons whispered to me "What is this? I don't like it."
I think that about sums it up - What is this movie? What is it trying to be? And when, oh when, will it end?
It's a bit too violent and has too many pointless, non-story progressing scenes to be a kids' movie but it is definitely not for adults. All the good bits are in the 30-second advert that convinced us to go and see it.
We saw a morning session at the cinema. At 10.57am I checked my watch, at 11.01am I checked my watch and was stunned to find time had completely slowed.
Although Chloe Coleman is an excellent actress and very watchable, every other character was unbelievable, unappealing and terribly written. What a waste of clever people like Kristen Schaal (or as I call her, Mel from Flight of the Conchords).
My older son thought it was okay but when pressed, couldn't name a favourite scene. The younger one gave up and ended up playing a game on my phone about an hour in.
Hunter Street (2017)
They seem to have a lot of big scarves
This show is okay. When my kids watch it I don't feel a strong need to leave the room like I do with most Nickelodeon shows. One thing about it really annoys me though - they wear hideous scarves. I can pick this show at a glance by the big things wound around the characters' necks. It's weird.
