Published September 28, 2024 Updated September 28, 2024 08:18am

If you’ve watched the animated series The Loud House on Nickelodeon, you’ll love No Time to Spy: A Loud House Movie. It’s a fun, animated adventure that feels like a mix of James Bond and Home Alone movies. It takes viewers on an exciting ride with Lincoln Loud and his big family. Even if you haven’t seen the series, you can still enjoy the movie.

The story starts with Lincoln telling his friends about his soon-to-be-grandma, Myrtle, who was a spy 38 years ago. She used to be Agent 28, as she had told Lincoln and his entire household about her adventures and the villain Dr Rufus Dufus.

Most of the family think Myrtle’s stories are just for fun, but Lincoln believes every word. Lincoln, voiced by Bentley Griffin (who also voices Ryder from PAW Patrol), is the only boy in a family of ten sisters and loves David Steele comics, a James-Bond-like spy series. His best friend Clyde also believes in Myrtle’s spy stories, and together they dream of their mission.

Lincoln’s excitement for a real-life spy adventure gets out of control when the whole family goes to the ‘Thunderball’ resort for Myrtle and his grandfather’s wedding. His obsession with spies puts everyone in danger as villains from the past return, dragging the entire Loud family into chaos. The movie is full of funny action scenes like fistfights, car chases, and daring escapes. The title No Time to Spy fits perfectly, as the Louds barely have time to catch their breath!

The animation is colourful and bright, just like the Loud House series. The movie moves quickly, so it keeps kids entertained without slowing down. The heart of the movie is all about teamwork and family. Lincoln learns that he can’t do everything by himself, and by the end, the Loud family comes together. They use their different skills to work as a team and save the day. There are moments when things get out of hand, but Agent 28 and Lincoln manage to take charge and save the day.

In conclusion, No Time to Spy: A Loud House Movie is a fun and action-packed adventure for kids and families. It’s packed with spy missions and heartfelt moments, making it a perfect pick for movie night.
