L'espion qui m'a dompée

« The pairing of Mila Kunis and Kate McKinnon in an R-rated action comedy would seem like the perfect late-summer escape. Both actresses have proven for years that they're game for whatever comes their way, and their contrasting styles held the promise of giddy, combustible chemistry. »

« If your expectations are low enough - like around your ankles - it's possible to laugh at a couple of the film's tossed-off punch lines and cartoony action sequences and feel like you got your money's worth. »

« It's a bit worthy of Lucy and Ethel. And while, overall, The Spy Who Dumped Me is no classic in that sense, one sees appealing glimmers of a larger female-buddy-comedy world ready to be explored. »

« And then there's the doe-eyed face-puller Kunis, who only rises above blandness in her scenes with McKinnon. The good news is she rises amazingly high. »

« Does a spy-game action comedy really need more action than comedy? No, but Kate McKinnon's whiplash talent could go far on the big screen. »

« SNL veteran and costar Mila Kunis are left stranded in this flat espionage farce that should have stayed undercover. »

« Even still, The Spy Who Dumped Me is never especially painful to sit through. At worst, it's just comedy falling flat, and as off-key as McKinnon seems to be here, she's never grating. »

« Jamais, pas une seconde, les deux principaux personnages, et leur quête, ne nous ont été attachants. Voilà une preuve que ce mélange des genres n'a pas eu, pour nous, l'effet espéré. »

« Un pastiche inoffensif de James Bond et The Pink Panther, tourné aux quatre coins de l'Europe sur l'impulsion d'un budget inversement proportionnel au talent mis à contribution. »
