Super Spy is the story of a black man trying to make his screen play about the black James Bond. The the only problem is that he has no money to do it. He assembles a rag tag crew and cast and makes the movie for under 10 grand. His brother, who is a black Elvis impersonator, plays the James Bond character Jimmy Bond 008. Since the movie has almost no budget they hire a large bearded white guy to do all the stunts for every one including the women, and they have no special effects. During filming they accidentally capture a bank robbery taking place, and the Feds and bank robbers are trying to apprehend the footage. The writer does not realize it is for the bank robbery and thinks its the movie industry trying to take down independent films. The movie definitely has its moments but most of the humor seemed forced. The actually movie they were making seemed much more hilarious. Definitely worth at least one viewing. The black Elvis impersonator is by far the funniest character in the movie, but does not have much screen time, the stunt man is also quite hilarious in the film. all in all a decent comedy.

Should be in the bottom 100

Do not waste your time or money on this movie. It was awful and cheap. I rented it, and I was sorry I did. It is very long and it isn't funny at all. You couldn't pay me too watch this movie again.
It look like this movie only took $3.00 to make. You will pay more to rent or buy this movie than how much money was use to make it. I gave it 1 star. It has 2 hours and 15 minutes. This was Lisa Raye first movie, this was before Players' Club was made.
Listen to the audio commentary to see how cheap it is. It also has A.J. Jamal live in concert on the DVD, which is also cheap. Do not waste your time or your movie on this movie. If you really want to see this movie get it for free or wait and see if it comes on TV. I doubt they will show this film on TV. This movie should be in IMDb bottom 100.
