Groovy baby -cinemas most hippest spies

October 24, 2009

All of us have a fav spy -someone we’d call on to save our country in our hour of need. These are the super spies with a license to kill, and to entertain.

James Bond- How could we do this list without mentioning the original cinema spy himself? Always well dressed, with the best gadgets and a gorgeous girl on his arm whilst saving the day, Bond showed us how to save the world with style. People may argue who was the best man to play him, but they never question the characters status as a super spy in the first place. Bond is the person we think of when we hear the term ‘spy’, and nobody does it better.

Harry Palmer- Micheal Caine played the Anti Bond. Taking a completely different route to the Bond films, Palmers world was much gritter, and the man himself was a mirror image of 007. Nowhere near as flashy, without Bond’s background, looks and sporting glasses, what Palmer did know what to do was get the job done, which he did in 5 films.

Austin Powers- The 60′s grooviest spy who was frozen and defrosted in the 90s to fight his arch nemises Doctor Evil. Powers is a send up of all the great spy movies, with Palmers glasses and Bonds gadgets, but with a charm all of his own. Powers would always save the day, but not before giving us all a good laugh along the way. The Austin Powers movies paid trbiute to creator Mike Myer’s favourite spy films and carved out a niche all of their own.

Jason Bourne. It took millions of dollars and years to make him good at what he does, but one wrong mission ends up with Bourne not knowing who he is, and inches from death. Bond didnt adapt greatly to the new millenuim, but Bourne slotted in brilliantly, blending into the crowd to work, but not above acting when the moment called for it. Attacked by the agency who trained him over the three movies, Bourne was always one step ahead.
