Review of Spy (2015) by Xstuff123X — 08 Jul 2015
Do you like movies with Melissa McCarthy in it? If yes: then you'll like this movie, if no: then you will not like this movie. It's as simple as that really. Personally, I don't like Melissa McCarthy, so I really didn't like this movie.
The film is suppose to be a spoof on spy movies, but the thing, I don't think the director of this movie really understands what a spoof is. Sure, the movie goes through about every spy-movie cliche within the first 10 minutes, but it's all done in a straight-faced serious way. There is a handful of interesting moments, but for the amount of absolute garbage that surrounds these interesting moments, there really isn't enough here for me to recommend this movie.
Beyond the whole spy parts of this movie, we have Melissa McCarthy trying to be funny.... and that's it. That's all this movie has to offer.
Like I said earlier, if you are into this sort of 7-pm-American-cable-TV-comedy (which attempts to appeal to as large of an audience as possible and in doing so removes any resemblance of character or personality said show might have) then this movie is just for you. Otherwise, just don't watch this movie.
