Spy Film Review


Finished watching Spy directed by Paul Feig and staring Jude Law, Melissa McCarthy, Rose Byrne and Jason Statham. The film opens up with Bradley Fine (Jude Law) on a mission to find out the location of a nuclear bomb, with the help of Susan Cooper (Melissa McCarthy) at the CIA headquarters relaying information to Bradley's earpiece throughout the mission. After accidentally killing the main suspect Bradley goes to the suspect's daughter Rayna Boyanov (Rose Byrne) for information about the bomb leading to Bradley's death. As the CIA morns his death Susan volunteers to go into the field and investigate Rayna as she knows all of the field agents of the CIA which Susan is not, causing Rick Ford (Jason Statham) quitting in protest. Once on mission Susan constantly runs into Rick as he has taken it upon himself to investigate alone while Susan eventually befriends Rayna in order to find out where the nuke is. Overall this was a great film as the action and the comedy blended very well creating some great laugh out loud moments as it doesn't feel out of place. 8/10
