My Spy

— Nothing new here. A cute and clever little girl easily outsmarts the buff but inept adult lawman, in this case a CIA agent. There’s a bit of intrigue, the threat of some bad guys, a possible love interest, and enough cuteness and chemistry to do justice to the genre. Watching it you’d swear you’ve seen it before, but you’re probably thinking of one of the similar films you remember with Vin Diesel, or John Cena, or Dwayne Johnson, or Arnold Schwarzenegger or some other inept, overly muscular guy teamed up with an adorable and precocious child.
