It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.

Now, i have previously written a review for the first Cody Banks movie. And i must say this does improve it a tad, not much a tad. But the review score does not change. The story line is quite basic with a mind control device, and vengeance for the man who trained you because its "child friendly". The accents in this are just, the worst literally. The girl who plays the British MI6, Agent accent is just too, way too British, so posh and "What what, old chap!". Then their is the Asian girls accent which is either put on, which sounds like it is. Is just the worst. Who ever makes these awful films, stop just stop. You think your going to win awards when you don't.

this is a sequel to the original version(agent Cody banks). this is great for children 5-8to 9 I very much recommend for children those age frames,then again i don't recommend for older teens 12+.your older teens might not enjoy as much .older teens will start wanting to watch horror movies and movies with more mature content. This movie has some fight scenes ,but no blood or gore. age appropriate for 5+.This will probably excite your child with the cool spy gadgets and toys. overall this shows great for kids not so great for your older teens.It doesn't have the punch to be a thriller. I suggest watching with your child if you do decide to watch...

The year before our teenage CIA agent was dealing with nanobots that eat carbon and silicon. In Agent Cody Banks 2: Destination London, Frankie Muniz is on assignment in the British capital to chase down a defecting agent and the mind control device he's been developing. The defector by the way is Keith Allen who ran the summer camp where the CIA trained its young agents and that the parents of same know nothing about its real purpose.One thing unchanged from the first film, parents Daniel Roebuck and Cynthia Stevenson are as clueless as ever and apparently as clueless as the rest of the adult parent population who send their kids there. That business makes the film hard to swallow if you're over the age of 18.Instead of shapely Angie Harmon as Frankie's handler, he gets Anthony Anderson instead. They get to stay in an English castle where they believe a scientist collaborator, James Faulkner is working on the device. Muniz is part of a visiting teen orchestra, an international grouping of kids bringing something new to the classics as you see. As for Anderson, he goes in as a cook and he introduces the British aristocracy to soul food and they actually like it.As Frankie Muniz was growing up and he did considerably between the first Cody Banks film and this one I'm guessing either he and his producers or both arrived at a decision that to keep this series going would be ludicrous. He was 19 then and still playing a high school kid. After this he couldn't have carried it off.As I said about the first film, all right for adolescents, adults would have a hard time swallowing all of this.

Agent Cody Banks 2: Destination London is a complete waste of your time unless you like crude jokes and nothing elsePlot: During a game of hide and go seek at the training camp a top secret mind control device has been stolen by Kenworth (James Faulkner) and Diaz (Keith Allen). Agent Cody Banks (Frankie Muniz) is sent by the C. I. A. Director (Keith David) undercover as a violin player at a fancy and rich music school where Kenworth lives with his wife. There he meets his sidekick Derek (Anothny Anderson) and at school he meets Emily (Hannah Spearitt). Together all three of them must find the mind control device and take it back before something happens, but complications arise as Kenworth and Diaz figure out how to make the device work. The Good News: There is really not a lot to like here. Out of the few positives the two fight scenes at the end layered over with the music is all good and I have to say I rewound that part several times. The new gadgets are all nice and neat and cool and any little kid would want them. The action scenes are well thought out, but are not as spectacular as the ones in the first. The one that really stands out is the factory chase with all the crates everywhere that make for great hiding places and it's rather satisfying. The returning actors do great and the new faces are rather horrible. Some parts are unpredictable, but there are only a few of them.The Bad News: Oh, where do I start? OK, no Hilary Duff. Instead we get some twenty- three year old posing as a high schooler and that story about Hilary not being able to come back because of school is false. On the commentary for A Cinderilla Story she clearly states she didn't go to high school and I would highly doubt that she would be in college by now. Oh well, anyway the new faces have know idea what they're doing and wonder around with a blank stare saying lines like they're reading off an eye chart. Anohny Anderson is the worst and his attempts at humor are ridiculous. At one point he brings up three jars of his pee to distract the guards so Cody can sneak through. The whole thing is not funny and leaves you feeling empty. That's another thing, when the credits roll the whole film leaves you feeling empty and sad you wasted your time on this. The gadgets are cool as I stated earlier, but the whole scene is almost ruined by a terrible actor delivering the gadgets and his weak attempts at comedy. The car that Cody and Derek rid in is too ridiculously to be taken seriously and the brings up another point. Our villains are not scary in the least, in the first one you actually knew what they could do and were capable of. It's heard to be scared of a villain who farts every so often. There are a lot more problems with this film, but I thing I've said enough.Conclusion: Do not see this if you were a fan of the original or does not find crude jokes funny. If you do think they are funny well what are you waiting for? Grab yourself a DVD copy today! But for me I'll stick with the first one. Not RecommendedRated: PGfor action violence and some crude humor
