This has it's funny moments. It likes to lean hard into the overblown oft repeated joke. And while I could dig that in general, this does it far too much... to the extent that it feels like the movie drags ridiculously long.
It's kinda like a Johnny English for women, basically, and there are a lot of funny moments. It has Miranda Hart in it and I LOVE her. She should get to be in way, way more movies. It has a lot of other people too, like Melissa McCarthy as the main spy, and Jason Statham and Jude Law. And they all do well and stuff, but it's just so long and the coherence of the story wasn't enough to justify the length. Learn to trim, learn to edit people!
J* gives it 2 stars.
