Critics Consensus

Leslie Nielsen's comic gifts are undisputed, but Spy Hard's lazy script and slapdash direction fail to take advantage of them.

Desmond Ryan Philadelphia Inquirer The jokes come in sporadic volleys rather than the steady machine-gun pace of The Naked Gun and Airplane!, and, with a few exceptions, they are less truly aimed. Rated: 2/4 Jun 14, 2013 Full Review Darren Bignell Empire Magazine Sporadically funny, but never more than a sting of crude gags. Rated: 2/5 Jun 4, 2013 Full Review John Petrakis Chicago Tribune As funny as Nielsen can be, like all comic actors he still needs the quick-thinking jokes and zingy one-liners to be genuinely funny. Rated: 1.5/4 Jun 4, 2013 Full Review Mal Vincent The Virginian-Pilot Less raunchy than the other Nielsen films, the material isn't enough to sustain its 80 minutes but it has its moments. Rated: 2.5/4 Feb 25, 2022 Full Review Alistair Lawrence Common Sense Media This spy parody from 1996 feels very much of its time. Rated: 2/5 Dec 1, 2021 Full Review Ralph Novak People Magazine [A] haphazardly executed send-up. Jun 14, 2013 Full Review Read all reviews

thiago s Filme bacana, o roteiro é bacana, esse filme paródia os filme como 007, speed 1994, esqueceram de mim, e também ao pulp fiction, Teve até referência muito boa ao acidente da queimadura no cabelo do Michael Jackson e uma pequena participação do lutador Hulk hogan, gostei muito das referências dos filmes e das celebridades de Hollywood, e mais um filme de paródia que os filmes paródiados salvam o filme. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/10/25 Full Review Rosana B Definitivamente essas paródias não me animam nem um tiquinho, embora tenha carinho, respeito e admiração por Leslie Nielsen, que filminho chatinho e bobinho, dispensável... Infelizmente não consegui vencer, além do humor raso, o roteiro pouco contribui, Nielsen não foi suficiente para salvar o filme sozinho.. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 12/29/24 Full Review Christopher J this movie is hilarious but a little too stupid 4.5/5 Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 12/26/24 Full Review Landon J Ugh, a low moment for Leslie fans. Pure awful, it felt like it was missing a lot of jokes? and the ones left were bad by genre standards. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 12/08/24 Full Review ELMA A The actors are good, I just want to see this movie 23 times! The spies are very good at their job especially Agent 3.14! Tell all you friends to see Spy Hard! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/25/24 Full Review Josh G This movie has funny moments and Leslie nelson is good but not great. A favourite of mine but it's mediocre to most. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/13/23 Full Review Read all reviews
