You won't be disappointed!

Perfect cast and a good story

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Watching it is like watching the spectacle of a class clown at their best: you laugh at their jokes, instigate their defiance, and "ooooh" when they get in trouble.

Agent Cody Banks (Frankie Muniz) is at CIA camp. When helicopters come, he camp director Diaz escape. It turns out CIA was trying to capture Diaz for stealing a mind control chip. Now Banks has to go to London as an undercover musical prodigy to get close to a scientist who Diaz needs to perfect a mind control device. Banks gets a new wisecracking handler Derek (Anthony Anderson).I don't usually like Anthony Anderson, and I really really don't like him here. He's more annoying than usual. And going to London does nothing but create a whole bunch of idiotic stereotypes. Hannah Spearritt seems a bit to old to be a teen. As far as the production, it looks like a bad TV show inside the London residence. Cody Banks is a silly little teen movie. So that's to be expected in the sequel. But this is too silly. It doesn't even maintain the already low expectations.

talk about disappointing.this sequel has none of the heart of the original.the first one was silly,but at least it had a semblance of story,and the laughs were honest.here,it's all about the cheap laughs.this movie is slow and boring,with a lame story.if it didn't go direct to video,it should have.Anthony Anderson is in this one,and he can usually be counted on for some good laughs,but he has nothing to work with here.this is case where they should just have stuck with the original,or at least put some more thought into the sequel.it feels rushed,but then it was,considering it came out merely a year later than the first one.Agent Cody Banks 2:Destination London gets a 4/10 from me.

Seems quite a few people have given this film a bad rap. Well, let's take a different look at it.My younger children, my wife and I watched this film and enjoyed it. We recently rented the first Cody Banks flick. We didn't preview it but there were some scenes in it that were disturbing to our smaller children. This wasn't the case with Cody Banks 2. It puzzles me why this movie got such a low rating.(Film rating is a bit of a beef of mine. Movies today have so many different aspects to consider: Score, Content, Character Development, Pacing, Editing, etc. And 1 star is so unfair.)I gave a higher rating because this film was toned down from the original. The childish tone was intentional to contrast it with the very "mature" feel of the first movie. It's more like a family Disney movie: The violence is stylized with humor that's better understood by children. The score is very playful throughout.The camera work is fine and the plot is something younger children can understand and appreciate. Hey: it's really a spy comedy.My wife and I felt it was an all round better film than the first. We recommend it for families that watch films together. Rent it before you buy.

Frankie Muniz really does look 16 at almost-19! He and Anthony Anderson, who plays his CIA "handler" in this sequel, were obviously having fun making this campy tongue-in-cheek secret agent "thriller." This is a very simple movie -- there are no sub-plots, no complicated characters, no psychological complexities -- and I couldn't help but enjoy it. If you're willing, for a moment or two, to accept that a 16-y/o boy in the middle of an immense plush bed would tell a very attractive girl who comes to visit him in the morning to just leave him alone and go away, then you can enjoy it too! The silliness extends from the opening scene of a CIA "summer camp" for pint-size agents-in-training to Cody discovering that Scotland Yard has a junior agent program of their own. With all that, or perhaps in spite of all that, there's something so unassuming about Frankie Muniz that you WANT to join him in his far-fetched world. Even as a child actor he was never especially "pretty" in the way that so many of them are, so he really must have had, and continues to have, some talent. I hope he can carry the same relaxed aplomb into a successful adult career.
