Spy Kids is an American media franchise centered on a series of spy action comedy films created by Robert Rodriguez. The plot follows children siblings, who discover that their respective parents are spies and become involved in an espionage organization when their parents go missing.
Spy Kids was influenced by elements of both James Bond and family films. The films also exhibit Hispanic themes, as Rodriguez is of Mexican descent.[1] Rodriguez has stated that the first movie was “a fusion of Willy Wonka and James Bond“, while the second was the “Mysterious Island and James Bond mix”.
