The Spy Who Dumped Me

(18TC) Director: Susanna Fogel

Cast: Mila Kunis, Kate

McKinnon, Sam Heughan

Released: Aug 2

Hollywood’s list of action-

comedies has steadily been

building over the years, treating

us to big hits such as 21 Jump

Street, to the hugely forgettable

Hot Pursuit (remember that one?

Exactly). With the amount the

studios are churning out, there

are bound to be a few duds, and

The Spy Who Dumped Me looks

like falling into that category.

Two 30-year-old best friends in

Los Angeles, Audrey (Mila Kunis)

and Morgan (Kate McKinnon),

are thrust unexpectedly into an

international conspiracy when

Audrey’s ex-boyfriend (Justin

Theroux) shows up at their

apartment with a team of deadly

assassins on his trail.

The pair seem to be

surprisingly good at the spy

buisiness so jump head orst into

the action and come up with a

plan to save the world.

Kunis and McKinnon should

make for a powerhouse of a

comedy duo, so maybe their

performances will salvage it.

THE BOTTOM LINE Another action

movie spoof with a bit of charm.
