Review of Kingsman: The Secret Service (2015) by Jy S — 09 Sep 2017

Matthew Vaughn delivers the suit in Kingsman: The Secret Service.

Gliding in at just past the 2 hour mark, the plot's combination of violence, humor, and style raise the entertainment and lower the seriousness. While staying grounded from time to time, the film also manages to go over the top on numerous occasions.

The action is violent and stylized, leading to candy for the eyes. The blood content is a little light considering the violence, but acceptable none the less.

While Taron Egerton does an amusing job with his character, it's Colin Firth that carries the movie. Mark Strong does what his last name suggests; provide a strong supporting character.

Kingsman: The Secret Service blends its different genres together in amusing fashion. I'll take the Big Mac.
