Review of Spy (2015) by Calibmcbolts — 29 May 2016

'Spy'' is an incredibly hilarious and smart comedy, one of the best in years.

''Spy'' has great characters that are all memorable, perfectly portrayed by the actors. (Jason Statham in particular) It's a very smart satire/parody on the famous Spy genre, making fun of Bond, Bourne and Mission Impossible, which the movie does with ease and not to abruptly. Also compliments to ''Melissa McCarthy'' breaking her stereotype of only playing stupid fat girls that are constantly made fun of, now she plays a strong heroin that you dont want to F with. (there still are moments where there is poked fun at her so called ''large-ness, but those are in the minority) Is the overall plot original, no, is the villain original and special, no, but does this movie bring in the laughs? BIG TIME!

I want to keep it short, ''Spy'' is hilarious, you'll have a great time watching it with whomever, whenever. Is the movie flawless, no ofcourse not, it still has its cheesy moments, but those dont ruin the film.
