The Spy Who Dumped Me

Critics Consensus

The Spy Who Dumped Me isn't the funniest or most inventive spy comedy, but Kate McKinnon remains as compulsively watchable as ever.

Audience Reviews for The Spy Who Dumped Me

  • Mar 27, 2019
    Mila Kunis and Kate McKinnon star in The Spy Who Dumped Me, a rather disappointing action-comedy. After discovering that her ex-boyfriend is a CIA agent Audrey and her best friend take it upon themselves to complete his mission to get a flash drive to a contact in Europe. Unfortunately, McKinnon is poison; going way over the top with her bawdy comedy. The tone is all over the place and the plot is incredibly formulaic and predictable. Still, some of the jokes work and there a few good action scenes. But The Spy Who Dumped Me just doesn't know what it wants to be and doesn't work as a comedy or an action film.

    Not good, for sure, but way exceeded my expectations. Final rating:â~...â~... 1/2 - Not quite for me, but I definitely get the appeal.

    The Ed Snowden subplot here is better than all of "Snowden". That said, this looks and feels like another in the vein of "Mila Kunis makes middle-of-the-road-comedy for gullible middle class". And it totally is. That it purports this perspective at all is obviously a tad annoying, but what is truly irritating is the product itself cements this stance by not trying. At all. Well, except for McKinnon...she can't seem to help but to give a damn. It is mostly thanks to McKinnon's energy that "The Spy Who Dumped Me" offers a few solid laughs and remains light on its feet even when we see every beat coming and even when writer/director Susanna Fogel and co-writer David Iserson get a little too carried away with the genre they're playing in. Kudos to McKinnon for her Chris Kirkpatrick joke as well. That shit was gold.

    A pretty good team up (Kunis and McKinnon) with pretty good chemistry and a premise to hold our interest through. Somehow though something gets lost ... connection perhaps. Rate this as a spy spoof that achieves "almost". Anyhow, McKinnon STILL is lacking a script that can carry her unique talents. And as for Kunis I understand Bad Moms or Book of Eli is the way to go. The guys do the James Bond/action star okay, but fail at the international lover tag. The best gag is the Harvard/Yale graduates riff. And the strongest presence in the whole piece comes from Justine Wachsberger, who's simmer is tantalizing.
