    James Bond but for wife guys

    Fun, stylish and unique spy story with a tight runtime. Really doesn't hold your hand, which I loved, but if you see it make sure you're not too sleepy and be ready to buckle in. I liked it most when it was focusing on the character relationships; the couple of scenes that had futuristic spy tech felt out of place to me.

    I didn't find think the ending entirely made sense, at least compared…

    Sandra Bullock's performance is great, but the rest of the script? Not so much. Everything with the other FBI agents I thought was particularly dumb. Still relatively fun and breezy, and got a few good laughs out of me. I appreciated that she actually looked and acted like a tom-boy (at the start, spoilers!!) instead of being a conventional bombshell with glasses, but everyone's shock at her transformation after getting her hair done and being put in a dress obviously makes no sense.

    The first third felt slow to me but once the groundwork was laid and the bits became increasingly high-concept it was hilarious. Super creative visual style, really fun.

    It cracks me up, and Amy Adams is great. It's more of a kids' movie than I remember (since seeing it as a kid), and I find the third act a bit of a snooze. But wholesome fun.
