This director's style is instantly recognisable. He's commonly referred to as the British Tarantino and his crime stories are funnier than any comedy. His films are already iconic and have become memes and quotes. Probably, after the "British" Tarantino, you have already understood that today we are going to talk about Guy Ritchie.

HERE THERE BE SPOILERS. While not a bad episode by any means, “The Spy Humungous” doesn’t really stand out. It’s the first entry in the season that didn’t strike me as being remarkable in some fashion.

Plot: The plot is very much a direct continuation of the previous entry and gets further into just what the strange place Jack and the girls have ended up in actually is.
