... View MoreI thought it was okay generally but forgettable in my opinion. However the church scene is fantastic and easily the best part of the film.
... View MoreI saw this film last night thinking that it could be a little serious. I am disappointed having wasted my time with a shabby parody of James Bond films. Of course a parody is well come, when it is a real one, with humor and not a bunch of rubbish, like this. What a pity for actors like Colin Firth, Samuel L. Jackson and Michael Caine to be let in such a nonsense.My vote 3/10
... View More'Kingsman: The Secret Service' may have a clichéd and unoriginal plot, but it is excused to it's stylish and entertaining approach and talented cast. This film may have paid homage to spy films such as the well-known-and-loved Bond series, but it's too smart to be considered a parody, but also too silly and ridiculously clichéd to be considered a serious film. However, this ultimately is excused by the fact that this movie is just so cool! With extremely stylish action sequences, memorable characters portrayed by great actors and hilarious humor, this film is a highly enjoyable watch that will leave its audience in awe. The action in this film is so over-the-top and stylised that it results in being some of the best action sequences I've seen in film for a long time. But the reason this movie is so great is all due to it's cast - Taron Egerton is fantastic as the lead role of Eggsy, but we all know that it was Colin Firth who stole the show. He effortless nails his role, and is essentially the main reason this film is as great as it is. Overall this movie is one of the most entertaining and rewatchable films of 2014 due to its highly talented cast and stylistic approach.
... View More"Kingsman: The Secret Service" tells the story of a privately funded Intelligence Agency, that consists of the best agents, trying to solve cases independent from countries and governments. When a rich enterpreneur plans to decrease humanity through a newly developed sim-card-technology, it is time for the newest members to proof that they earn their membership.For my personal taste, the movie is a bit too colorful and hectical. At points it feels more like a persiflage in itself and you really shouldn't start to think about the inner logic of the plot too much. The later consists of a crime quite similar to one Dan Brown described in one of his novels, only in a rather excentrical and odd way. The production value is high, the film looks great and has every technical feature to be considered a blockbuster. Unfortunately, the characters are a bit stereotypical, the story is rather predictable and the gags not always in the right spot.All in all this movie is a bit overrated in my eyes. I was expecting an adult comic movie such as Kick-Ass but sometimes this felt more like a Scary Movie for spies. The result is not a bad film, it is still quite entertaining and professionally produced but it doesn't stand out from the crowd.
