GO
The name is Cooper, Susan Cooper ( Melissa McCarthy) and I’ll take my double tall non fat latte shaken not stirred. From the opening credits to the ending in bed this is a very funny spoof of James Bond movies.
It is really amazing how the balance is kept between the thrills and the laughs. She is dealing both with danger and awkward moments. She must field attacks with knives and bullets as adroitly as she has to defend her choices in attire. I loved the fight with the frying pan. There’s no wasted time here. It’s a kill or be killed world, and there’s no time for more than just a couple of quick returns by way of clever remarks.
Jason Statham (Rick Ford) is a riot as a chauvinistic colleague and Miranda Hart (Nancy B Artingstall) is excellent as the TALL friend. The eye candy is Rose Byrne (Rayna Boyanov), a sexy, spoiled and smart antagonist. Her acting and humor is absolutely spot on. Her blend of wickedness and charm in this movie is understated but subtly powerful.
Go you will enjoy.
