"My Spy" is nothing original but still manages to be filled with action, sweet at its core and entertaining.

In this action-comedy, a CIA operative finds himself at the mercy of a 9-year-old girl, having been sent undercover to surveil her family.

While we've all seen this genre of film before, "My Spy" stays away from being a "family friendly" movie and goes more for stylized action and mild cursing. It's worth the watch just to see Dave Bautista and Chloe Coleman together. They're cute, fun and Coleman is great. For a night in quarantine, this easy going flick is a safe bet for young and old.

Pleasantly surprised by how smooth and entertaining My Spy is! Originally wanted to see in the theater glad it's available on Amazon prime. Very funny, delightful throughout, and well paced; I'd definitely watch again! Dave Beautisa is quite cool I think it's awesome he's been trending in the last few years or so. Cool how cute it is in many bits and has a glow with the cinematography.
This is a comedy, with some romance thrown in, surrounding a 50-ish man who has special ops experience and is assigned to monitor a family to see if the wanted ex-husband will show up. His nemesis becomes the smart 9-yr-old daughter that figures out ways to get ahead of them all. The "romance" isn't with the young girl, as in "The Professional", it is with the girl's mother.
Rough, huge, and capable Dave Bautista, in real life a WWE star before he became an actor, is the former special ops man JJ. The young girl is Chloe Coleman as Sophie and their chemistry works very well.
Although it was set in Chicago almost all of it was filmed in Canada. I found it on Amazon streaming movies, it is a very nicely entertaining movie. Many of the professional reviews are too harsh.

Watched this with the fam and we were all shocked how loud we were laughing throughout. The trailer (surprisingly) doesn't do this film justice. After seeing it we all went "meh" but since we had no other choices, we watched it and glad we did. That little Chloe Coleman is an amazing actress, and combining her with the amazing Dave Bautista was probably the smartest casting choice this year. For that matter, the entire casting was on point. The directing was great, as was the cinematography and sound. The 99 min runtime and pacing were perfect. The writing had some issues and was a little aloof, but the comedic and brilliant dialogue more than made up for it. It's a 100% must-see film for the entire family. I'm shocked at the current 6.3 low IMDb rating. It's a solid and well deserved 8/10 from me.
This is a standard feel good film and it's not hard to work out how is going to go and how it's going to end, but that doesn't really detract from the enjoyment.
The was not as much action as I expected but there was more depth and better acting than I expected as well.
All in all this isnt a high brow, complicated, Oscar winning movie but it is a decent feel good film that works for adults and kids.

- TriviaThe fountain with dogs shown in 'Paris' is located in Berczy Park, Toronto, Canada. The fountain, by landscape architect Claude Cormier, was added to the park in 2017. It features 27 cast iron dogs, one rather scared cat, and a large bone.
- GoofsWhen JJ enters the apartment and discovers Kate having trouble with the leaking water line, it is shown that the leak comes from where the line enters the shut-off valve. After JJ makes the leak worse, Kate quickly reaches in and closes the valve, stopping the leak. Since the leak was coming from below the valve, closing it would not stop the leak. Closing the valve would only stop leaks which occur above it.
