With multiple smash hit and two Academy Awards nominations under her belt , McCarthy ’s talent and ability to result a film are undeniable . Spyblatantly plays on Greco-Roman espionage figure from the opening shot to the bail - eqsue musical credits successiveness .
While it may seem that Jude Law , with an American accent , will be the suave Cuban sandwich of the story , it ends up being shy analyst Susan Cooper who call for on the mission . With support from her good friend Nancy ( Miranda Hart ) , she move around across Europe chasing the very slippery branch dealer Rayna Boyanov ( Rose Byrne).Every fundamental interaction between the two is fulfil with wolf barb and hilariously rude linguistic communication , as Susan gets closer to her mark .

Jason Statham also plays a screaming imitation of his entire filmography and seems to take bang-up pleasure in it . However , practically every lineament gets lines that will guarantee multiple laughs , and Allison Janney and Peter Serafinowicz are particularly delicious in their supporting part . Thecomedyfilm should have been a much bigger strike than it was , but hopefully , the streaming love it has received since 2015 will set a sequel in motion at some point .
