  • November 11, 2009
    great film! i was never bored or unsatisfied. alex pettyfer was great in this.
  • October 31, 2009
    Sigh... I have read all the books of Alex rider and I find them to be a great read, when I heard about the movie of this I thought it was a great idea to put this character onto the big screen. When I saw the movie I realized it wasnt such a good idea, at least not under this dir...( read more)ector. This movie is one of the worst petty excuses for film I have ever seen, they twisted the story and added dashes of puberty here and there to make an ultimately crap awkward experience. Only one part in this whole movie made me sort of twitch a smile but it was quickly drowned out by this movies crapness, everything about it is rubbish and I would give it less than no stars if I could.
    Oh and for the record I cant actually put 0 stars on this movie so ill give it a half but we all know what I mean

    I've read the book. It was good. The movie, wasn't as good. I'm not suprised that they cast a Hawt-e to be Alex Rider. I liked Missi Pyle, I thought she was hot. I guess I kinda was disapointed that Ewan Mcgregor wasn't in the movie much, even though I knew his character would di...( read more)e at the very start. Anyways, all the cast members are ok. There's no performances that are outstanding. The action was good, but there wasn't enough of it. Donnie Yen was the martial arts choreographer and I'm a big fan of his. I was disapointed that he only choreographed two fight scenes. I would have liked some more of them. The explosions and shooting wasn't anyhting special. Is this a good film? No, not really, but there is enjoyment to be found.

  • September 18, 2009
    its a good movie,
    but the boy is not fitted to be an agent,
    i mean its unbelievable for a 14 years old teenager
    can be a trained spy...

    i love damian lewis, but how long did his voice became bigger
    its too annoying,
    i love him in series "life"
    than in this movie.

    but i see sar...( read more)ah is so beautiful!
  • September 4, 2009
    really good, shame there's no sequel as of yet!
  • September 3, 2009
    A rather predictable film. The humour compromised the logicality of the plot. Slightly humourous but it should only be watched if one is a fan of the actors. The ending seems illogical too.

    just love and alex too
  • August 18, 2009
    eeeh..I don't know...maybe..
  • August 17, 2009
    While this is a fun watch, I have to say Alex Pettyfer is the one and only factor that brings my review up to 4 stars. That being said, this movie is probably better suited for 14-16 year olds than a 21-year old.
  • August 8, 2009
    I read book, (the whole alex rider series actually) and they would make great pg 13 movies. But this just ruined the whole franchise, Nothing was good. The book's great though, you should read it
  • August 8, 2009
    Not so bad. I like Damian Lewis in this movie.
  • August 6, 2009

  • July 2, 2009
    DISGUSTING
    Yup,this has to be the worst british movie i've seen in my life!
    first of all the story which could have been made into a great spy movie, just turned into a disaster,which i believe could be credited to the filmmakers.the whole movie just turned out to be a cartooni...( read more)sh representation of what seemed like a good novel.

    then the protagonist Alex pettyfer-i know he's got a lot of female fan following,but for me he's the worst actor & I mean it.watching him do all the james bond moves felt like a torture.as it was to watch alicia silverstone(even though i liked her before).

    what else-cartoonish villains & stupid characters......If being/acting stupid made a great film,then this could've been the numero uno among such.

    the worst part-Andy Serkis,Bill Nighy,Ewan McGregor,Mickey Rourke,Robbie Coltrane & Sophie Okonedo
    how many more big names did u need to disappoint the audience.

    Finally to 3 of my best friends on flixster,who want to see it-(Angie,Thelma & Becky)...please dont waste your time on this nonsense film!
    & 1 punishment to the director geoffery sax should be to force him to watch his own film in an empty theater..perhaps he can learn a lesson!

  • June 28, 2009

    hehehe...
  • June 26, 2009
    I tried to like this movie but it sucked so much. I was suprised by the cast of the movie which i was excited to watch, but all that talent misused and misplaced was just a shame. This kid is way too much of a fuckin snob to be a spy and his arrogance made him fuckin stupid to. T...( read more)his was bad even for a family flick.

Alex is recruited by Alan Blunt to continue the mission. He is sent to Cornwall to investigate a new computer system, which Darri...( read more)us Sayle has created.

  • June 18, 2009
    this movie wasn't too bad. I can't see myself watching that much, but i did enjoy it while i watched it. It was wierd watching an England movie. Especially when the cars are driving opposite sides.
  • June 13, 2009
    un esquema muy similar al de Cody Banks, tiene buenos efectos pero las actuaciones son totalmente risibles la historia no es nada novedosa, solo caras llamativas para una mediocre película.
  • June 13, 2009
    cute, kinda cheesy, but cute



    Really cute, kinda cheesy, but cute
  • June 12, 2009
    better than i thought iit would be
  • June 3, 2009
    I really wanted to have fun with this movie, that bills itself as James Bond for kids. The cast is actually pretty talented, even if some are just popping in for a cameo. Mickey Rourke of all people is the diabolical villain. It should all add up to a good time, but...it just doe...( read more)sn't. The movie feels lifeless despite its cast (well, partly because of Silverstone). I did enjoy Ewan McGregor's brief turn -- he shows up early and dies immediately. Lucky man.

    james bond wannabe loser
  • May 18, 2009

  • April 28, 2009
    Alright. The friggen dude is sexy. Oh my. Not to be a total girl about it, but MMM.
  • April 26, 2009
    A terrible action film that shames it's impressive cast.Mind you, Alex pettyfer does do an impressive job for his film debut.
  • April 23, 2009
    I really enjoyed this film!! Wow going to have to watch again because i can't rememeber Damian Lewis was in it
  • April 23, 2009
    read the book and seen the movie.
    the guy is very cute!
    overall a very good movie, enjoyed it lots
  • April 21, 2009
    Very exciting.
    For an average Filipino teenager, this captures my attention as another ideal man comes our way. That we wish we are much cooler than we are today. Alex Raider is my dream personality. This is the truth!haha
  • April 13, 2009
    a little different from the book.
    voilent, action packed, funny and good casting.
  • April 13, 2009
    i didn't think i would enjoy this movie as i am not a fan of kids beating adults but i was wrong. this film was good and didn't go too far with the kids fighting adults. an entertaining film which even the kids will enjoy. i liked the portagise man-of-war in the tank.
  • March 23, 2009
    Yes, it is comparable to Agent Cody Banks, no it isn't a rip off of it. Its more Harry Potter (insert orphan who is destined for more here) meets James Bond (with M and Q). It is an utterly wonderful cast with a good screenplay in a somewhat silly, yet fun, but completely forge...( read more)ttable movie. The worst part of the film was that the director couldn't make a decision between serious characters and death and comical characters and death...it is a tween movie after all...so he split the difference destroying the overall balance of the film.

    Okay, enjoyable.. that's it :)
