Spy

Spy Title Card

Spy Still

“You really think you’re ready for the field? I once used defibrillators on myself. I put shards of glass in my fuckin’ eye. I’ve jumped from a high-rise building using only a raincoat as a parachute and broke both legs upon landing; I still had to pretend I was in a fucking Cirque du Soleil show! I’ve swallowed enough microchips and shit them back out again to make a computer. This arm has been ripped off completely and re-attached with *this* fuckin’ arm.”

Everything surrounding Melissa McCarthy in Spy is hilarious (Statham particularly), but I don’t find her brand of humour funny at all.
