Wissenswertes
The Thumb-Thumbs are based on a drawing that Robert Rodriguez did as a child.

Patzer
When Gregorio and Ingrid escape and encounter the hallway with the floor of falling puzzle pieces, the pieces fall into a deep hole. But after Gregorio peels his face from the Plexiglas, you can see that the puzzle pieces are on top of the Plexiglas, not underneath it.

Zitate
Gregorio Cortez: [sees Ms. Gradenko's hair; half of it is burned off due to a previous encounter she had with Carmen and Juni] Ms. Gradenko... I think.
Ms. Gradenko: Oh, it's me all right. I owe my new look to your children.
Gregorio Cortez: Remind me to raise their allowance.

Crazy Credits
After the credits, we see one more panning shot of one of the hallways in Floop's castle.

Alternative Versionen
A longer version of the film, titled "Spy Kids: Special Edition" was re-issued in US theaters on August 8, 2001. It contained a new scene involving a cave full of sleeping sharks. The scene was always intended to be in the movie, but the original budget did not allow for the special effects needed. After the movie was a hit, Rodriguez was able to complete the scene. This scene was not included in the DVD release of the film, which featured the original theatrical version. However, this scene is available on the Blu-ray.

A Boost For The 'Family Unit'

This was a silly kids' adventure story but still fun the younger ones and for adults, thanks to colorful scenes, great special effects, decent humor and a nice family tone to it. The kids are alright, except the girl is a little bossy, and the villains aren't too nasty. This also looks very good on DVD.

Included in the color and characters are "the thumb people" who were especially fun to watch.

The only problem I found with it is the last 30 minutes in which it got too silly and emphasized (typical Hollywood) how the kids can do the job better than the adults, which a ludicrous film cliché. However, overall "family unity" gets a big boost in this here, even in the end, and that good message is probably a big reason this movie was such a success.
