Agent Cody Banks | comment |
Agent Cody Banks is a kids' spy movie starring Frankie Muniz and Hilary Duff. Cody Banks (Muniz) is a junior CIA agent recruited through a secret CIA summer camp. Due to some exaggerated bragging he did at the camp, the agency mistakes Cody for a KidAnova and assigns him to "seduce" Natalie Connors (Duff), the daughter of a scientist whose nanobots have attracted the attention of an evil organization. What follows is 25% romantic comedy, 25% spy parody, and 50% straight action movie. It also features Angie Harmon as Cody's handler, Ronica Miles, and Keith David as the head of the CIA. A sequel followed in 2004, entitled Agent Cody Banks: Destination London, and it co-starred Hannah Spearritt (of S Club 7 fame) and Anthony Anderson alongside Muniz.Executive produced by, among others, Madonna and Jason Alexander (yes, that one). | |

Five-Second Foreshadowing: At the beginning of the movie, Diaz berates Cody for displaying friendliness to a fellow agent-in-training/camper whom he previously defeated in an exercise, telling him that no one, Diaz himself included, can be trusted. Not long after, Diaz is revealed to be part of the movie's Big Bad Duumvirate. | |

Pocket Rocket Launcher: There is a fight scene in the London Metro, during which Diaz wields a rocket launcher disguised as a Maglite (a sort of big, sturdy flashlight that can be used as a cudgel if nescessary). It extends to twice its length and accepts small rockets dropped down the lamp bell. | |
