11. The spy who dumped me
Well, not aligning with the title, The spy who dumped me is a globe-trotting action-comedy that went far too underappreciated when it was released in theatres. Cashier Audrey Stockman (Mila Kunis) and her roommate Morgan (Kate McKinnon) are drawn into an international game of espionage when Audrey discovers her recently-ex boyfriend (Justin Theroux) is a spy who left some highly-classified information in their apartment. The movie is surprisingly funny and will keep you hooked on it.
