To me, this is absolutely one of the best of its time. Full of clever jokes, hilarious gags and great comedic timing, it shows Aykroyd and Chase in their prime.

Full of clever jokes, hilarious gags and great comedic timing, it shows Aykroyd and Chase in their prime. I cant begin to tell you what a comedic gem this film is and its rather sad that not many people are aware of it. This is one that rewards multiple viewings and with each one you will find more and more fun bits throughout. To this day I havent looked at an abandoned drive through theater the same way, you ll know what I mean when you finally watch the film. https://latetothegame.blog/2018/12/13/key-movies-of-my-life-spies-like-us-1985/ Expand

Spies Like Us is a great comedy homage to Hope & Crosby without the musical numbers. All the critics that reviewed this as a “political commentary” are morons.

All the critics that reviewed this as a “political commentary” are morons. Spies Like Us is a classic fish out of water buddy comedy in the vein of Martin & Lewis, Knotts & Conway, Bob & Doug McKenzie, Bill & Ted, and Wayne & Garth. If there was a marijuana element, they would be Cheech & Chong, Jay & Silent Bob or Harold & Kumar. The humor is a little crude, the premise is ridiculous and it’s really funny. It’s not a masterpiece. It’s an 80’s comedy. It holds up better than expected 35 years later. In fact, it’s probably a little better than you remember if you saw the movie when it came out. Expand
