Spy x Family Code: White

Agent Loid created a fake family to accomplish his mission, but little did he know that each family member had a secret. His fake wife, Yor, was an international assassin, their adopted daughter, Anya, was a telepath, and their family pet, Bond, could predict the future. Anya was the key to his mission, and she now had to win a school cooking competition, so the family vacationed to find the perfect dessert. While enjoying their time together, they unknowingly stumble into a military operation. They must resolve the situation while maintaining their secrets.

This is an anime movie that extends a running series. Watching the series before this movie will help clarify what is happening, but it is unnecessary. The movie does a great job quickly recapping the essential elements of the series and focusing on the story. The movie is funny, entertaining, and a bit on the mature side. If you are a fan of the series or just want to watch an anime movie, this is entertaining.

Spy x Family: Code White was the first anime movie I ever watched in theaters. Normally I'm not the biggest fan of anime show movies because they tend not to add to the series (they aren't cannon and can't expand on a story that well in such a short time), but this show utilizes the narrative of the past two series perfectly to execute a decent movie. Sure, some moments are a bit odd, especially the Anya's storyline with the bad guys, but for the most part, there were wholesome moments all around. It was faithful to everything else and had one or two stand-out moments. It's constructed in a way where even if you've never seen the series, you can still enjoy the movie, which I appreciate (even though I've watched both seasons - and so did my mom cuz she watched it too). The animation and action scenes are well choreographed. The movie felt more like an arc than anything else, but at the end of the day, I found it to be fine. It's not much greater than "fine", but it's certainly enough to get you by if you've been waiting for a season three. All characters not only showed up, but performed their roles well. 8/10 is very fair for the movie. While it was no-where near perfect and had a few weak points (regarding generic/plot convenient moments), the strong scenes where it counted the most were done right and with some pizazz. I will say it was nice to see Spy X Family on the big screen.

I went to the midnight premiere at the elegant TOHO Cinemas Hibiya - the biggest screen in Tokyo doing a midnight showing.

The movie was cute and light fun! Some great Anya faces. Loid's dulcet tones sounded great in a theater haha. And Yor's sweetness and Anya's adorable voice rang clear.

Captures most of the spirit of the show, but I wish there was more of the funny slice-of-life and school life stuff . But yeah, they were going for a big event story.

Visually about what I expected with a movie budget allowing for some slick action and bigger set pieces with really dynamic camera work!

Has an unexpected type of humor that included a surreal dream/vision sequence. Oh and there is a short after-credits scene.

My kids (and my husband and me) love this show! My family went to see the movie today and it did not dissapoint. The quirky humor was throughout the movie and we laughed all of the way through. They didn't spend a lot of time explaining the backstory of the characters, which we appreciated since we have already watched the TV show. Someone who hasn't watched the show might be a little confused at the improbability of people having these skills and coming together as a family. However those who are fans of the show will enjoy the goofy humor and fun that is typically found in the episodes. I would recomend to fans of the show and if you haven't seen the show, I would recomend you check it out.

"Spy x Family" is one of the silliest and loveliest anime franchises out there, because the premise - master spy sets up fake family with master assassin and adopted mind-reading orphan to get access to elite school - is utterly ridiculous and over the top. But because the characters are very well written, this is one of the most entertaining shows around. While the last season stalled a bit, the film goes from slow-burner opening to complete insanity in the second half. If you're a Disney+ victim, you will find this pure fun entertainment soothing, whether you know the series or not. However, if you have little tolerance for toilet humor or small children exposed to mortal danger, you'll find something to complain about - but that's fun for you, isn't it? So this anime action parody really has something for everyone.
