Review: In this sequel to the 2020 thriller ‘Spy’, the formidable CIA agent JJ (Dave Bautista) has now assumed the dual role of trainer and guardian for Sophie (Chloe Coleman), the girl he was once tasked to protect. Now a teenager, Sophie is predictably rude and constantly snapping at poor JJ—the man who loves her like a daughter and only wants the best for her. Their routine is disrupted when they embark on a school choir trip to Italy, and, predictably, everything that can go wrong does. Sophie’s best friend and JJ’s boss’ son, Collin (Taeho K), gets kidnapped. This prompts Collin’s father and CIA chief, David Kim (Ken Jeong), and his goofy tech assistant Bobbi (Kristen Schaal) to fly down to Italy, but things spiral further out of control.
Director Peter Segal approaches the film like a globe-trotting spy thriller with a dash of juvenile antics. From the CIA headquarters in Langley to the scenic locales of Austria and Italy, the screenplay moves briskly but doesn’t always bring the audience along. The plot is, at best, mediocre and reminiscent of countless thrillers we’ve seen before, often executed with more conviction. Segal and his co-writers, Erich Hoeber and Jon Hoeber, rely on some of the most time-worn action-adventure tropes to fill the screen time. This might be by design, aiming for a more kid-friendly tone, but it unfortunately strips the film of any real seriousness. We never genuinely worry for any of the characters, even when they find themselves in the direst situations.
The comedy, particularly with talented actors like Ken Jeong, offers a welcome respite. Kristen Schaal provides delightful support. We can’t fault former wrestler-turned-actor Dave Bautista for his stiffness—he gives it an honest shot. However, he could have been utilized much better, especially in the action sequences. Chloe Coleman has grown into a competent actress. However, her portrayal of a stereotypically grumpy American teenager with daddy issues feels overdone and clichéd. Anna Faris, with her Britney Spears-like demeanour, is always entertaining to watch. Her morally ambiguous character had so much more potential for exploration. The bloodshed and chase scenes are engaging while they last, but they don’t leave a lasting impression.
In the end, one wonders if this sequel was truly necessary. With stronger writing and more impactful punches—both comedic and physical—this spy thriller could have been the riotous affair it intended to be.
