Storyline
Spies Like Us Two low-level government employees, Emmitt Fitz-Hume (played by Chevy Chase) and Austin Milbarge (Dan Aykroyd), are chosen for a top-secret CIA mission. They are unsuitable as CIA agents but are deliberately chosen for this reason, as their mission is a decoy one and they are expendable. After being fast-tracked through training they are parachuted into Pakistan where all manner of adventures await them.
User Reviews
Spies Like Us Chevy Chase and Dan Ackroyd put the “F” in funny in the movie “Spies Like Us”. There’s something big going on in Russia. Two government workers are sent out to be spies in different countries. They go to the Middle East, they head out to Russia to scope out a nuclear missile being launched. Unbeknowst to them, they aren’t trained to be spies, they’re trained to be decoys(sitting ducks)! The Middle East was a hoot. Hanged upside-down when Emmett Hume(Chase) explained to the people that they’re Americans. The first part was funny when they fail to perform the appendectomy to a patient. They got their big break when the attack enemy lines and bomb out the foreign police. It was ultra funny when the two faux spies checked out the missile and the crew-persons who came out of the tent. Anything else would be boring. At least the men ended up being heroes. Funny, side-splitting, and totally non-stop laughter to make this movie worth its while.
Hilarious
I’m surprised this movie isn’t higher rated. No, it’s not “Lawrence of Arabia” but not every movie has to be “artistically respectable”. Just look at the names of the two main characters, Emmett Fitz-Hume and Austin Milbarge, and you know what you’re in for.
Aykroyd and Chase are hilarious and this movie is a laugh a minute. Yes, there are dumb jokes, slapstick humor, ridiculous scenarios and odd cameos (doctor? doctor?)…But that’s what’s great about it, you just turn your brain off and take it in.
I’ve seen this movie a hundred times and could watch it a hundred more, I guess it’s one of those “love it or hate it” things. But “we mock what we don’t understand”.
Carry on Screaming!
