Kingsman: The Secret Service Review 8/10
Every year there are a few films that fly under the radar. I'm not talking about the Oscar nominated films that are released in select cities and then a month or so later are released for the public. I'm talking about films that you just want to sit back and enjoy and instead walk away much happier than anticipated. Kingsman: The Secret Service is the first of 2015 for me.
With the right amount of action and comedy, the director Matthew Vaughn delivers a film that most people of the genre will love. It's very violent and at times over the top. But the movie doesn't take itself seriously and after an intense scene the comedic timing by the actors are perfect.
Because a young boys father saved a "Kingsman", this particular character played by Colin Firth, vows to watch over him. This leads to bringing the boy to train to be the next "Kingsman". But first he must beat out around 10 other candidates. The series of tests that the recruits are put through are thrilling scenes to watch.
The fight choreography gets better throughout the movie including a massive fight in a church and the final fight near the end. I enjoyed this more than I thought I would and would highly recommend it to anyone who likes action/comedy. I would also just recommend it to anyone who enjoys good movies. A solid 8/10
