Spy

01
02
Johnny English Reborn
Why this pick
This shares Get Smart’s polished modern espionage spoofing, an accident-prone operative, gadget-based mishaps, and brisk action sequences that never abandon the playful tone.
03
The Man from U.N.C.L.E.
Why this pick
For Get Smart’s stylish secret-agent fun, this offers slick period design, bickering partners forced into cooperation, inventive set pieces, and an easygoing comic rhythm around genuine stakes.
04
Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery
Why this pick
Its deliberately absurd spy-world logic, flamboyant villains, and affectionate genre parody suit the same desire for espionage filtered through committed, visual comedy.
05
The Heat
Why this pick
Although it is police rather than spy work, its central mismatched partnership has the same engine as Max and 99: capable agents, chaotic fieldwork, escalating danger, and punchy buddy comedy.
