Catch That Kid (2004)

I'll tell you why so serious

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Catch That Kid passed the time adequately for me. It's good natured, with a lot of good kid actors, at this point in time. The main attraction for me, was of course Kristen Stewart. She often carries this film, with her charisma, and likability. Corbin Bleu and Max Thieriot add great support with Kristin to make a likable trio, but the film is much too limited to fully work. The movie can only go as far as it's plot can take it. For a kid's movie, it's a lot better then most. The subplot with Max and Corbin fighting for Kristen's love, was a bit silly though, and took away some of the enjoyment of the film for me. I mean Her dad was in bad health, and all those two cared about was having her love? it seemed rather selfish to me. There is one decent action scene, where the boys race away from the cops on go carts. For a Kid's film, I have to say that was pretty impressive. The Main beef I had with this movie though, is that it's often very bland. Adults like me, won't find a lot appealing, and it will only do enough to just get you by with the movie.Performances. Kristen Stewart proves once more, why she deserves her status as one of Hollywood's top actresses now. The charisma she induces for her age, is absolutely remarkable. She carried this film, and made me believe in her. Corbin Bleu and Max Theriot provide likable support to Kristen. The Three made a good team, and made the film a lot better then it should have been. Jennifer Beals and Sam Robards made for likable parents. John Carroll Lynch is the comic relief, he had some amusing scenes.Bottom Line. Catch That Kid is better then it has any right to be. It falls flat overall, when all is said and done. There is still a fair amount of enjoyment to be had, Kids will love it, and adults won't be as tortured as they thought they would be.5 1/2 10

i liked this movie quite a bit.true,it's not at all realistic,but if you can suspend your disbelief,you might like it.it a fun movie with a good deal of action and humour.the characters are all pretty likable,and the acting is good for this type of movie.if you're expecting something deep,you won't find it here,though there is a serious issue,which is the setup for most of the movie.the movie is fast paced and never boring.basically it's a pretty entertaining 90 minutes.there is some rude humour involved and some intense themes,but still i think it's suitable for most audiences,but parents should still use their discretion.for me,Catch That Kid is a 7.5/10

Hardly worth 2 stars. My favorite part in the movie was the ending.I watched it just yesterday and let me tell you, I wish I hadn't. Now I have nightmares of go-karts (which I have no idea why they used). This movie was as pointless as, i don't know, watching informative videos on motherhood when you're a father. basically, this was a wanna-be Cody Banks with a touch of Spy Kids, and and can't you imagine how horrible that would be? adults- do not even hope for a moment of laughter. the humor is unbearbly forced and stupid and I'd rather watch Jim Carrey attempt a horror movie (haha, that is a good idea).please, spend your money on something else.

Everyone is saying that Catch That Kid was a bad movie. I don't think it was considering its a kids movie. Its not that bad! I loved it- plus it had the sexy Max Thieriot in it which made it wayy more interesting. The movie is really showing how far family members go for each other. Even though it went to robbing a bank the movie still showed how important family and friends are to have. Please do not dis Catch That Kid... yooh need to understand that its a kids movie not an adults. They are things that may teach kids bad habits but still its A MOViE! I love this movie because of the action in it. Gosh. Get over it! Thanks for reading my opinion. Sammi ♥
