Spy is the latest big comedy from Melissa McCarthy, from director Paul Feig. Per usual, McCarthy gives audiences an outrageous character to enjoy. Like Kingsmen: The Secret Service, Spy parodies the old fashioned spy thriller. However, Spy is a little less British in its approach.

McCarthy plays undervalued, often over-looked agent Susan Cooper. When tragedy strikes, Susan steps up to the plate and goes into the field for the first time. What follows is the type of nonsense that can only be accepted in the form of a movie. A particularly fun character is Jason Statham’s. Statham plays an overly intense operative who constantly butts heads with everyone (it’s a bit of a caricature of some of Statham’s previous roles). Rose Byrne and McCarthy also reunite and their encounters are some of the funniest in the film. A fun supporting member of the cast is Miranda Hart (known for her comedy in the U.K.). She brings her unique brand of comedy to Spy. Jude Law, Allison Janney, Bobby Cannavale and Morena Boccarin also star.

For the most part, Spy follows the typical McCarthy-Feig formula, but that does not mean that it isn’t a good time. Spy is not some great analytical piece nor is it very different from the Melissa McCarthy comedies we’ve seen in the past few years (i.e. Tammy, Identity Thief, etc.), but like her other films, Spy is both entertaining and funny due to the asinine situations and insane characters. It goes for the big laughs and succeeds.

Spy officially releases to theaters Friday, June 5th.
