SPY is the white whale of comedies: a smart film that’s both off-the-wall hilarious from start to finish and crafted with intelligence. Jason Statham surprises most with his revelatory comedic performance, and the great Melissa McCarthy in the lead proves that, with the right material, she is one of the finest actors alive, as adept at raunchy comedy as she is at drama. Surrounded by an eclectic array of brilliant performances from Miranda Hart, Jude Law, Rose Byrne, Bobby Cannavale, and Allison Janney, and directed with maximum comedic impact by the incomparable Brent White and Melissa Bretherton, SPY is a gut-busting, action-packed, foul-mouthed opus from Paul Feig, that ranks with the finest comedies of the past decade.
Paul Feig is a filmmaker best known for directing the hit films BRIDESMAIDS, THE HEAT, SPY, and GHOSTBUSTERS, among many others. He also created the TV series FREAKS AND GEEKS and OTHER SPACE and has directed for such shows as THE OFFICE, ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT, and WEEDS, among many others. His TV work has earned him five Primetime Emmy nominations.
