SPY (2011)

Description: It wouldn't be so bad if the only problem Tim had was being stuck in a dead-end job. But his entire life is seemingly headed down a one-way street to loserville. He's in the middle of a custody battle with acidic ex-wife Judith over son Marcus, a precocious nine-year-old who would be happier sitting quietly in a corner than spending time with Dad. In a desperate attempt to go from zero to hero in the eyes of Marcus, Tim quits his job, but his life changes forever when he is accidentally recruited as a trainee spy for MI5. His co-workers include the agency bigwig, The Examiner, who manages the espionage game with a wholly unorthodox hand. And fellow spy Caitlin might prove to be a love match for Tim, as long as obsessive social worker Paula doesn't get her hands on him first.
