Kingsman: The Secret Service

Recruited by a secret spy service known as the Kingsman, a rough and tumble chap from London by the name of Eggsy (Taron Egerton) is indoctrinated into the world of espionage and counterintelligence. Meanwhile, media mogul Valentine (Samuel L. Jackson) has adopted an eccentric approach to save the planet, an approach with the possibility of leveling humanity. Guided by his mentor, Galahad (Colin Firth), Eggsy’s first mission will cross paths with Valentine; saving humanity and stopping Valentine will be no easy task, especially with the lovely and lethal Gazelle (Sofia Boutella) on the loose. Will Eggsy ever take a seat at the table with the Kingsman after all? kingsman Directed by Matthew Vaughn (X-Men: First Class, Kick-Ass, The Layer Cake), another precious superhero/spy gem has been mined and refined brining a witty Cockney brogue, proper etiquette, spy technology of James Bond lore, and full on action to the silver screen in a respectable manner; that is to say, adventure in a three piece suit hasn’t looked this good in ages. Heavy weight acting all round keeps the impossible entertaining; and, despite the less polished CGI and a slightly drawn out runtime, fun is still to be had. Worthy of your time this weekend, and heck, with a bad guy named Valentine what a way to go? Kingsman: The Secret Service is rated R.
