About
You may enjoy this if you want a kid-friendly racing adventure with spy comedy, especially alongside Turbo or Spies in Disguise; Not for you if you prefer the simpler heart of the first film.
Pros: fun racing scenes; colorful global settings; energetic spy action | Cons: weaker than original; uneven story focus; too much sidekick humor
