Kingsman: The Secret Service
Release Date: 13 February 2015 Runtime: 129 Minutes
Review Date: 21 February 2015 Rating: 5 (of 6)
I liked the
shooting style of Kingsman, the
cinematography well done. The
interactive opening credits were cool.
Humor was sometimes over the top but, whereas in other films it would
come across as cheesy or corny, here it wasn't offensive. The only issue with this picture was one set
of special effects that just looked ridiculous but, in the vain of the movie,
it played into that humor. All-in-all,
I'd call it "whimsical".
This writer &
writer/director team (Jane Goldman & Matthew Vaughn) has a good pedigree,
providing us with both Kick-Ass and X-Men: First Class in the past.
