Synopsis
Barely Lethal (2015) is a spy action-comedy you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Kyle Newman. Megan is sixteen and one of the deadliest graduates of a secret program that trains orphans into elite assassins. Krav maga, perfect aim, zero teenage life.
What she actually wants is the ordinary stuff: house parties, a school dance, a crush who knows her name. So she fakes her own death and slips into a suburban high school as a senior under a borrowed identity. Surviving cliques, group chats and the popular girls turns out to be a tougher mission than any takedown. Her old handler comes looking, and a target from her past isn't far behind.
Hailee Steinfeld carries the lead as a girl who can disarm a grown man but freezes when asking someone out. Jessica Alba plays a glamorous rival killer, Samuel L. Jackson runs the agency, and Sophie Turner shows up as the queen bee. It's light, self-aware and built as a parody of teen-spy thrillers rather than a serious one. Good pick if you want a low-stakes evening watch with a few real laughs. Stream Barely Lethal (2015) online on iFILM.
