Spy Intervention

Low budget doesn't have to mean a bad script,as well. Spy Inter. tried to duplicate the spy wth an unknowing wife scenario... and it tried to make some good points about the exciting well rounded life vs. a boring suburban life...but it was just badly written and directed. But most of all, it wasn't funny.

This is surprisingly bad. The story is stupid, there is bad acting and it is difficult to watch. I only watched it to see if there was anything redeeming about it. Anything entertaining about it must have been an accident. The constant switching between 4:3 and 16:9 perspective is something I have seen once before elsewhere ... it detracts from what is already a waste of time. The strange thing about this movie, is I suspect that everyone involved with its production probably already knew this movie would flop. They do not appear to have been embarrassed or ashamed enough to release it.

I made it just a few minutes in before I slapped myself and said "why in the hell am i watching this"? The acting is horrendous...the plot pathetic. How did this ever make it to film? Please do yourself a favor - don't waste your time by even starting this.

Yeah you are trying to be artistic or something with the constant changes from what looks like 4:3 to 16:9 (or 21:9 but I don't even care at this point). It might be good once to give an accent to one scene but to do it every 2 shots just ruins the production and gives it the feel of a movie done by high school students

What you need to have in mind when watching this movie is that it's a spoof and is all very tongue in cheek. It should not be taken seriously. Sure, the acting isn't great, but it isn't supposed to be. The leads both absolutely looked the part, there were some amusing support roles and the style was nicely observed. As a movie, it never quite took off for me and I never detected any real chemistry between the leads. But it is amusing, the bowling scenes with the cardboard salesman and the dancing at the dinner party were highlights for me. The line "A>B>C, Always be cardboard" had me laughing out loud. No classic, but not a complete dud either.
