Written and Directed by Matthew Vaughn, Kingsman: The Secret
Service stars Eggsy (played by Taron Egerton), a local delinquent, as he comes
across the secret world of a shadow spy agency, The Kingsman. Codenamed
Lancelot (played by Colin Firth), takes Eggsy under his wing in the hope of
developing his potential and finding rank among the Kingsman all while
attempting to uncover the villainous plot of Valentine (played by Samuel L.
Jackson). With a cast of diverse and quirky characters, this film breathes new
life into the spy film genre. Adding themes of satire intertwined with
hard-core and exhilarating action, the film offers a fast paced story that
keeps the audience engaged. The interesting heroes are pleasantly complimented
by an equally interesting villain, who adds greatly to the general quirkiness
of the film as well as provides a lot of the humour. The overall plot and
screenplay however is what brings life to it all, with the world of The
Kingsman completely immersing the viewer, presenting a universe that just fits
within the realm of realism, making you wish it really did exist. This film
ticks off all the boxes; a good villain, interesting heroes, a great plot and
ridiculous action. A must see!
