2 things strike you once you see the title of the movie. Firstly, it sounds silly. Do not worry, it is really silly. And the movie is in 3D.

Before you catch Robert Rodriguez's work (Spy Kids and Sin City), you have to wear a 3D red and blue cardboard glasses. It was refreshing to me to watch pop up images from the screen at the start.

However, once you get stuff like Shark Boy, Lava Girl, fighting the bad guys Mr Electric and Minus on Planet Drool, traveling on the Train of Thought, you know you are in for some senseless story. It doesn’t help that Mr Electric cracks lame jokes “Watts up?” and “Have you hertz…?”

After a while, you just get tired of watching through cardbox at greyish images. Help! Somebody help!
