Spy is a 2015 American action comedy film featuring Melissa McCarthy as the titular character, Susan Cooper, a desk-bound CIA analyst who is thrust into the field when the agents she assists are compromised. The movie also stars Rose Byrne as Rayna Boyanov, a wealthy and ruthless arms dealer, and Jude Law as Bradley Fine, a suave and seasoned spy. The film is directed by Paul Feig, known for his work on Bridesmaids and The Heat.

The movie begins with Bradley Fine, a top CIA agent, on a mission to extract a dangerous bomb-maker. However, the mission goes awry when the agent he seeks is killed by Rayna Boyanov, who has stolen a list of all active CIA agents. After Fine's death, Cooper volunteers to go undercover and track down Rayna, becoming the agency's first female spy.

Upon arriving in Paris, Cooper adopts various disguises and is tasked with tracking Rayna's movements. Along the way, Cooper encounters Ford, a rogue agent played by Jason Statham. Ford believes that he should be the one to bring Rayna to justice and views Cooper as a liability. Despite Ford's objections, Cooper proves herself to be a competent agent and successfully infiltrates Rayna's inner circle.

As Cooper gets closer to Rayna, she discovers that the criminal has a contact within the CIA who is helping her evade capture. Rayna's connection to the CIA is revealed to be none other than Rick Ford, who has been obsessed with bringing Rayna to justice since she killed a partner of his. The two agents reluctantly team up to take down Rayna and her organization.

Throughout the film, McCarthy delivers an outstanding performance as Susan Cooper. Her comedic timing and physicality shine in the film's numerous action sequences, and her character's growth from meek analyst to confident agent is satisfying to watch. Byrne also stands out as Rayna Boyanov, playing the villain with a deliciously wicked charm.

Jude Law's portrayal of Bradley Fine is also noteworthy, as the suave agent is tasked with playing the straight man to McCarthy's comedic antics. Law plays the role with a skillful balance of humor and sincerity, and his chemistry with McCarthy is a highlight of the film.

Spy also features strong supporting performances from actors such as Miranda Hart, who plays Cooper's friend and fellow agent Nancy, and Allison Janney, who plays the tough-talking CIA director. The film's ensemble cast provides a steady stream of comedic moments that keep the film entertaining from beginning to end.

The film's action sequences are well choreographed and visually impressive, showcasing McCarthy's physical prowess and adding intensity to the film's comedic elements. The movie's soundtrack, which features tracks from popular artists such as Iggy Azalea, is also a standout feature.

Overall, Spy is a hilarious and action-packed comedy that delivers on all fronts. McCarthy's performance, combined with an ensemble cast and exciting action sequences, makes for an unforgettable experience. The film's message of female empowerment is also a refreshing addition to the action-comedy genre. Spy is a must-see film for fans of both McCarthy and action-comedies alike.

Spy is a 2015 action movie. It has received mostly positive reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 7.0 and a MetaScore of 75.
