Storyline

Audrey (Mila Kunis) and Morgan (Kate McKinnon), two thirty-year-old best friends in Los Angeles, are thrust unexpectedly into an international conspiracy when Audrey's ex-boyfriend shows up at their apartment with a team of deadly assassins on his trail. Surprising even themselves, the duo jump into action, on the run throughout Europe from assassins and a suspicious-but-charming British agent, as they hatch a plan to save the world.

Trivia

Sam Heughan found the set of "The Spy Who Dumped Me" to be very different than "Outlander," the STARZ show on which he stars. He enjoyed watching the actors ad-lib in a very "creative and fast-paced" environment.

Goofs

When Morgan swings over and grabs onto the trapeze bar that Nadedja is on, there comes a point when Nadedja releases her right hand from the bar and punches Morgan in the face. This makes Morgan release her left hand so that she is hanging onto the bar solely with her right hand. The shot then changes and suddenly both women are hanging onto the bar with their left hands.

User Reviews

Very entertaining

Don't expect deep charater studies, layered storylines, plot twists like apparently some of the reviewers do. Frankly I find it absurd to rate a solid, entertaining, popcorn movie with 1 or 2 stars. Maybe you don't like this genre. But rating a Bach concert with one star because you hate classical music or Bach doesn't make any sense. Within its genre I would have rated it with at least 7 or 8 IMDB stars. I gave it 9 to balance out some of the super negative reviews. There are plenty of chuckle moments some good laughs, good and even great action, a simple but effective storyline, good acting, nice build up. Kate McKinnon gets better throughout the movie. I wonder if they actually shot the second part later than the first part, or if the script just suited her better in the second half. I was entertained throughout. And would recommend it to anyone who's looking for a lighthearted, action/comedy movie.
