Comedy. Action Susan Cooper (Melissa McCarthy) is an unassuming, deskbound CIA analyst, and the unsung hero behind the Agency’s most dangerous missions. But when her partner (Jude Law) falls off the grid and another top agent (Jason Statham) is compromised, she volunteers to go deep undercover to infiltrate the world of a deadly arms dealer, and prevent a global disaster.

	Media	Author	Review
		John DeFore The Hollywood Reporter	"Paul Feig remains one of the best friends women in comedy have (...) Laugh-stuffed and making excellent use of its marquee-grade supporting cast, it promises to be a home run"
		Tim Grierson Screendaily	"'Spy' is plenty of cheery fun, much of the joy coming from watching McCarthy in a blockbuster comedy for once not just be funny but also incredibly charismatic, vulnerable and sexy"
		Alex Needham The Guardian	"Smart, endearing and hilarious (...) Spy confirms Feig’s and McCarthy’s instinct for both the zeitgeist and the funnybone (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of five)"
		Justin Chang Variety	"Melissa McCarthy gets the funniest, most versatile and sustained comic showcase of her movie career in this deliriously entertaining action-comedy"
		Peter Travers Rolling Stone	"Melissa McCarthy is comedy royalty. And Spy, her best screen funfest to date, seals her coronation (...) Rating: ★★★½ (out of four)"
		Olly Richards Empire	"Spy is finally the movie that Melissa McCarthy deserves. (...) After three films together, Feig and McCarthy have very satisfyingly clicked as a creative team. (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of five)"
		Alonso Duralde The Wrap	"Spy would be a standout if only for its ability to keep me laughing while also keeping me from figuring out who was really double-crossing whom (...) Another memorable offering from McCarthy and Feig"
		Richard Roeper Chicago Sun-Times	"Spy is a foul-mouthed, often hilariously disgusting, slightly padded comedy that soars on the strengths of writer-director Paul Feig’s wonderfully idiotic script (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of four)"
		Mark Olsen Los Angeles Times	"'Spy' may not be a great movie, but it is great fun. And at times it will have you wondering if there's that much of a difference"
