SPY - the movie - A Fresh Look!

Join Dan Tom as they decode SPY – the movie from 2015. Find out if this spy comedy movie holds up. It has a great cast. But does it work as a comedy?

This movie is written and directed by Paul Feig. It stars Melissa McCarthy, Jason Statham, Rose Byrne, Jude Law, Allison Janney, Miranda Hart, and others. But it is a comedy spy movie and there is a hit-or-miss track record for these movies.

Can this writer, director, actors and crew pull this off? Listen to find out!

Some of the things we cover in our look at SPY include:

· The cast – does it work?

· How much of this movie was improvisation?

· Jason Statham's role was originally going to be different that it ended. How is it different?

· Melissa McCarthy has to carry much of this movie. Does she succeed?

· Did Aldo have a backstory we never saw?

· What are some of the common spy movie tropes that we see?

· Why do Elektra King and Madeleine Swann from the James Bond series get mentioned?

· Rats!

· Will there be a SPY 2?

· Do Dan and Tom think this spy movie is worth watching?

· And of course, there are more.

So, take a listen to hear what works and what doesn't work in this movie.
