Spy Kids 2: The Island of Lost Dreams (2002)
Well, surprisingly enough this sequel was actually more enjoyable than the first film. It was no cinematic classic by any means, but is wasn’t all that bad. It tells the story of the Spy Kids next adventure through an amusement park, under the sea, an to a mysterious disappearing island. there a mad scientist has created a device that can either control or destroy the entire planet. He just wants to be left alone to tinker with his devices in place, but when word get out about his invention his cloaked island starts crawling with all ages of spies. This is Rodriuez’s first digital film and only the second to be shot on the high definition progressive scan digital camera (the first being Lucas’s Attack of the Clones). We give Rodriguez credit for the amazing roles he takes on in this and every picture he works on, and this film is no exception. Here he has almost a dozen credits and even co-wrote the songs for the film’s soundtrack. (Written and directed by Robert Rodriguez)
