Customer Ratings & Reviews

At one point there used to be funny comedies that didn't feel the need to appeal to not-that-bright 13 year old boys.

I found it difficult to watch this movie with the constant strong language. Not one I would watch again.

Very disappointing for a Melissa McCarthy film. Don't bother. Stopped watching half way through

It was way too slow and if you have seen star before it is all the same all over again

Don't waste your money on this bomb! Whoever said this woman was funny is so wrong.

this was a request for someone, definitely not my taste.

COULD HAVE BEEN BETTER WITH REAL ACTING. GOOD ACTION KEPT ME AWAKE.

Crude humor in poor taste. Regret buying this film.

It's been so long since I've successfully enjoyed a comedy. There's been a few I liked, but most of them just aren't funny. This film isn't what most would call "sophisticated", but it was well made. The story that holds it all together is sturdy enough to hold the film together and not get in the way of the silliness. Perhaps if this is were the first spy movie ever made, some people would have had the same reaction to it that the Guardians of Peace had to THE INTERVIEW (2014). But since this is basically a by-the-books spy movie, it's nothing new to most people, except it's thoroughly funny. It's AUSTIN POWERS for the post 9/11 crowd. The excerpt on the cover that states "Funniest movie of 2015" may be spot on. The only bad thing about that is when you reach the top, there's nowhere to go but down...hopefully 2016 will rise to the challenge...Also: this film does have its "vulgar" moments, but they're not included b/c "vulgar = funny". Obviously if you're a prude, much of the film can be summed up by reading the explanation of the R rating, since any prude will prolly be too shocked by the various R rated sights&sounds to enjoy the rest of the film. However, if inclusions of violence and nudity in a motion picture don't get your nerves rattled, this can probably be thoroughly enjoyed.

Spy is a movie featuring Melissa McCarthy as CIA analyst Susan Cooper. She has a strong working relationship with Bradley Fine (Jude Law) and a close friendship with fellow CIA colleague Nancy B Artingstall (Miranda Hart). Susan Cooper ends up volunteering herself to be directly in the field due to her feeling to go after Raya Boyanov (Rose Byrne) after what she sees involving her coworker Bradley Fine. Elaine Crocker (Allison Janney) decides to give Susan Cooper a chance to be in the field with greater CIA responsibilities despite protests from fellow CIA agent Rick Ford (Jason Statham). Cooper’s new assignments have her directly dealing with both Raya Boyanov and charismatic but dangerous Sergio De Luca (Bobby Canavale). Meanwhile Susan Cooper is assigned various aliases to protect her identity and safeguard her cover and along the way meets an admirer who calls himself Aldo (Peter Serafinowicz). Celebrity 50 Cent makes an appearance in Spy and the movie lists some of the following locations/settings: Varna Bulgaria, Langley Virginia, Rome Italy, and Budapest Hungary. It Is also listed toward the end of the Spy movie credits that the making and authorized distribution of this film supported over 13,000 jobs and involved hundreds of thousands of work hours.

Easily the FUNNIEST movie of 2015, comedy powerhouse Melissa McCarthy scores yet again with the action comedy Spy. After a list of the secret identities of undercover spies goes up fo sale, the government is worries their undercover operatives will be snuffed out. Enter Susan Cooper, an analysis who agrees to go into the field to track and report. Clearly more happens then just tracking and reporting and all viewees can do is sit back, relax and LOL at the high jinks that Cooper finds herself in. Holding their own and OH SO FUNNY opposite McCarthy are action superstar Jason Statham and Damages star Rose Bryne. Both step outside their comfort zone and give HILARIOUS comedic perfomances, Statham as the bubbling fool and Bryne as a vicious femme fatale. It's a MUST have for any McCarthy fan or fan of comedies.

Am amazed on how Melissa M can deliver the way the over the top lines without laughing. A funny scene is when they go back and forth after she make a comment that goes over the line. The main plot is that she is support staff to a super agent, who gets killed on a mission. The identities of all the other spies get compromised, resulting in her first field assignment. Jason Statham’s character is really goofy, and his character’s bantering with Melissa is funny. A clever blend of action and comedy. The movie also makes fun of European techno music too. However, due to the language involved, children should not watch it.

This movie was hilarious as can be! Melissa McCarthy is a riot! She is a hot mess! I could not contain myself or my laughter! I have no words to describe this movie other than to invent words/phrases such as: spytastic; spytacular; spyrrific; spysationally spytastical; spyquisite; spytroadinary; and so many others! There was a twist in the movie that I did not see coming and I loved that.

Melissa McCarthy is seen as "the fat slapstick one" previously played by Chris Farley and John Belushi. She really gets a chance to put that image to bed in this movie. Jude Law, Jason Statham, and Rose Byrne all have major roles and do an excellent job. If you didn't want to watch it because "it's another movie making fun of fat people" give it a chance. This comedy is not what you expected.

I don't like a lot of comedies. But this movie is hilarious. I took my Mother to see this for her birthday because she loves Melissa McCarthy. I figured it would be funny enough but I was really surprised how funny. I did not stop laughing the entire time. Everyone in it is funny even Statham. The blu-ray has 2 versions, theatrical and un-rated. Highly recommended.

I first saw The Spy on HBO and laughed so hard, I had to go to Best Buy and buy it! The movie is a comical jab at the more serious spy movies. Some of the actors are known for their more serious roles in other movies but their comedy in this movie was epic!! Best comedy I've watched in a long time. Alot of swearing, so not good for young ones.

Rated R for language throughout, violence, and some sexual content including brief graphic nudity!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1st time I was disappointed as I am a big Jason Statham fan and not a Melissa McCarthy fan. 2nd time watched it for the comedy it is and not an action film and loved it. Once I accepted Statham's character I actually enjoyed it and thought Rose Byrne and Allison Janney were hilarious!!

Maybe the best Melissa McCarthy movie!! Although I love the "lovably gruff" persona she has played in her other movies, she hits all the right notes in Spy. She can be hilariously over the top but it is in moderation. Truly excellent movie!

Absolutely hilarious! It takes a bit for me to literally laugh out loud and I was constantly laughing out loud. Seriously, isn't all of her work so far funny? This one was really good especially with Jason Statham playing comedy as well.
