This is a standard hybrid comedy-action movie + kids' movie. But where they got the kids who are in it is beyond me. My guess is that they cut the "kid budget" by hiring boys and girls who were hanging around outside the studio. Or maybe they went to a LEGO store and in a loud voice shouted, "Who wants to be in a movie?"
There are a lot of kids in it who couldn't act their way out of kindergarten, with ONE EXCEPTION: Alina Foley, daughter of Dave Foley (of Kids In The Hall fame). She was adorable, she did a fine job and she showed a lot of promise.
I was surprised to see Jackie Chan using stunt doubles in this 2010 film, when he did all his own stunts in the much more demanding and rigorous movie "The Foreigner" seven years later.
