In this third (and final) outing of the hugely popular Spy Kids series, writer / director / editor / cinematographer / production designer / composer / co-producer Rodriguez concentrates so
heavily on the special effects that everything else — dialogue, acting,
character and story
development — comes off like an afterthought.
The Last Post trades too
heavily on cliches in
character development, but benefits from strong performances, especially by Raine, Buckley, Elma and Neumark Jones.
