Thoughts
I didn’t know there was going to be a sequel to My Spy until just before we watched it. The first one had been a surprise hit for me, as I thought it would be a precocious kid kind of film. Loved it but couldn’t remember much about it. This unexpected sequel was also really good. There were plot holes galore and it felt a bit similar to Kindergarten Cop as well as the Spider-Man one where they travel round Europe. But it was fun and cute and was basically a really good time.
