	Movies - Agent Cody Banks

Agent Cody Banks is a movie released in the U.S. on March 14, 2003 that follows the adventures of 15-year-old Cody Banks (played by Frankie Muniz) who has to finish his chores, avoid getting grounded, and save the world by going undercover for the CIA. Hilary Duff (Natalie Connors), Angie Harmon (Ronica Miles), Keith David (CIA Director), Ian McShane (Brinkman), and Arnold Vosloo (Molay) are the co-stars. The film is directed by the norwegian director Harald Zwart, known from such films as One Night at McCool's and Hamilton.

Of note, this film was the first major motion picture project for Duff apart from the film spinoff of her Lizzie McGuire TV series. The same can be said for Harmon, who had just come off a three-year stint as Assistant D.A. Abbie Carmichael on NBC's Law and Order.

The film is also interesting in that it showcases such cutting-edge vehicles as the Segway and SoloTrek XFV.

Plot

To his family and friends, Cody Banks is a typical teen--he loves to skateboard, hates math, and feels like a complete idiot around girls. But Cody's got a secret--he's actually part of a secret teen CIA program. Cody's living every boy's dream life--he can drive like a stuntman, has an incredible arsenal of cool gadgets, and his agency mentor, Ronica Miles, is totally hot. But Cody's training is put to the test when he's sent to pose as a prep school student and befriend fellow teen Natalie Connors in order to gain access to her father Dr. Connors. Dr. Connors is a scientist unknowingly developing a fleet of deadly nanobots for his project's benefiter...the evil organization ERIS, led by Brinkman and his henchman Francois Maloy. From runaway cars and high-speed snowboard chases to a spectacular final mountaintop showdown, Cody has to use everything he's learned to prove himself as an agent and stop ERIS from completing their mission--and, maybe, even get the girl.
