Review by Matthew Luke Brady

Kingsman: The Secret Service 2014

Ever since the first trailer for this movie came out, I already knew that this movie was going to be great because Matthew Vaughn directing it and that guy knows how to make a well made film that reminds everyone what good movies are, so it comes to no surprise that this movie was awesome.

Kingsman: The Secret Service is a like tribute to the good old spy films that seem to be serious or not very well made these day, yeah there's some cheesy and goofy moments, but that's what we remember best from them and this movie was the perfect tribute to that, and a perfect tribute that everybody isn't going to see because everybody is going to see 50 Shades of Rubbish. I lost faith in humility after that.

Matthew Vaughn is a director who knows how to direct good action scenes and knows how to entertain the audience, and with this movie he directed this with style and a enough effort to make a bad-ass film. Even when his movies mostly flopped at the box office, it will have a cult following and Kingsman will have a cult following. Nice work Matthew Vaughn.

Taron Egerton, who is a new star and this is his first big role he has ever been in, and my god was he great in this movie. This is my first time I ever seen this guy act and let me tell you this guy has a bright future a head for him.

Now at first I didn't really thought that Colin Firth in action scenes would work, but after seeing the movie I was wrong...dead wrong. Every time Colin Firth kicked ass, I totally bought into it, because I heard in an article somewhere that he did all of his stunts and I got to say he pulled it of brilliantly. His character Harry Hart was the best character in the whole film and every time his on screen he stole the whole film for me.

Samuel L. Jackson as the villain was just brilliant. I mean talking about a villain that was so fun and freaking hilarious. But at the first I wasn't very sure about the way he talked in the film. I mean, he talked like Adam Snadler from 'WaterBoy', but after a while I got use to it and it worked for his character. These days I feel that Samuel L. Jackson is just filling it in with his new movies, but in this I actually saw him play an actual character and he knocked it out of the park.

This movie probably has one of the best action scene I've seen since...I'm not kidding you here, but The Matrix, and that's the Church scene. My god, where do I even begin with this, the scene itself was fast pace, but I still could see what was going on and the action scene was shot beautifully well and it showed what action should be filmed. So watch when you see the film look out for the Church scene it will not disappoint.

Now for problems: I got to say that the first couple of minutes of the movie I didn't really get sucked in into the movie that much, but as the movie went along I finally got into it.

Overall rating: Kingsman is a movie that deserves more attraction. Skip 50 Shade of Whatever and see this movie, trust me.
