Comprised of three episodes linked together by computer animation of Rufus (Nancy Cartwright), this "film" introduces us to Kim Possible (Christy Carlson Romano), Ron Stoppable (Will Friedle), Wade (Tahj Mowry), select family members, and a few of the major villains from the Kim Possible universe, including Dr. Drakken (John Di Maggio), DNAmy (Melissa McCarthy), The Bebes (Kerri Kenney) and Shego (Nicole Sullivan). The bad news is that except for one episode--the third section of the "film"--everything else on this disc was viewable on The Disney Channel, as part of the Kim Possible series. They should have just begun releasing seasons of the show on DVD, with the "extra episode" as a bonus. Surely this will be done at some point in the future, which means, at best, that the money you'd pay for this disc will be for the extra episode, the linking computer graphics, a Christy Carlson Romano music video, and a brief computer graphic synopsis of the major villains on the series. The good news is that the show is well done, and viewed as a film, The Secret Files is entertaining, with the new material tying the first 40 minutes together nicely. Kim Possible somewhat resembles Buffy the Vampire Slayer, but the villains are more child and young-teen friendly. There is a heavier sci-fi / James Bond feel to the show, with Wade functioning as a combination of Bond's M and Q. Humorous material arrives quickly and regularly, on many levels, so everyone from toddlers to adults should find various aspects of the show amusing. The animation is a melding of typical American Saturday morning fare and Japanese anime, and the content also has a slight "anime jr." feel.Read full review
