Review of I Spy (2002) by Brian D — 11 Aug 2007
Plot is that the newest US fighter plane has been stolen. Damn who looks after these things? Well a second rate spy has the job of getting it back. However the only way he can get close enough is to work with a boxer with a massive ego. The FX are quite good and the jet is really nice. Owen Wilson plays his part well although it might have been better if he as a top spy. Eddie Murphy gets the ego this down so great about midway through the movie you want him to shut the hell up. There are a number of funny parts like when Bush gives Murphy's character a call. There are also plan painly scenes like when Wilson tries to pick up chicks. Overall it's a good move but more could have been done with the idea.
Best Scene: When they're trying to find out who's the double agent.
Best Line: "Yeah, what's B.N.S. stand for? Bitch that Needs some Slapping?".
Rating: Rent it.
