Negative Positive
Title: "I Spy" in Name Only
Review: Once again, a classic TV series receives shoddy Hollywood treatment. "I Spy" (2002) takes the show's name and trashes everything that made it memorable. Failing to click as a team, Eddie Murphy and Owen Wilson never display the smooth rapport associated with Bill Cosby and Robert Culp. Meanwhile, director Betty Thomas struggles through depressingly routine material. Avoid this fiasco and track down the 1965-68 episodes (which the screenwriters never bothered to see).
