What was said
"My favorite movie about spies is the very first Spy Kids, and it's because all spy movies are not real. They're all bad. But I love Antonio Banderas, and I watched Spy Kids with my kids, and they loved it."
Bustamante dismissed the entire genre of serious spy films as inaccurate, stating he sees only errors when watching espionage thrillers. His favorite spy movie is the children's comedy Spy Kids, chosen purely for sentimental family reasons rather than operational realism, suggesting Hollywood's portrayal of intelligence work bears little resemblance to CIA operations.
