Kingsman: The Secret Service, or how Matthew Vaughn dragged him in again.

While on the horizon of cinema, a new part of Bond is just peeking out from behind the hills of obscurity, a new film by Matthew Vaughn has already appeared at the box office, which, to be honest, I didn’t want to go see. To be honest, the trailers infuriated me a little – they convinced me that it would be another stupid movie about teenage special agents, the kind they like to churn out, perhaps starting with Spy Kids. Well, you know – the next snot about children who are “not like everyone else”, who, overcoming obstacles that are absolutely unrealistic and ridiculous by the standards of the real world, end up saving the world. I don’t like this kind of movie. The only thing that made me go was the director. Matthew Vaughn didn’t make many films, but the Kick-Ass duology stood out from literally everyone else.

Despite the fact that Vaughn had a hand in “Snatch,” “Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels” and “First Class” of the X-Men, I’m sure many people know him from this film.

Starting from the main idea, which in itself mocks superheroes, ending with, let’s say… Vaughn’s personal style. Over the course of his entire filmography, he has clearly developed himself, and recognizing Matt’s film is already quite easy. They always have charismatic heroes, silliness and jokes below the belt – but at the same time they fit very organically into the narrative. And of course, excellent fights, in which Vaughn achieved almost uniqueness – bloody, brutal, but elegant and breathtaking.
Only in both Kick-Ass there was, as it were… not enough. It’s like you’re watching a movie, and you’re waiting for it to get cool, and then bam, it actually gets cool! For a couple of minutes. And then you wait until it gets cool. Wow, another cool moment! And the end. Captions. I watched a film like this, and you don’t understand whether you liked it or not – it seems like everything was great, but it’s like you didn’t even have time to try everything.

So, in his new film about https://44aces-casino-online.co.uk/withdrawal/ spies there is no such thing. The whole film you get a buzz, and the components of this very buzz change, without having time to get bored – now the film has wild banter and frenzy, now exciting action, now it even leans towards seriousness. No, honestly – Kingsman, among other things, is also a stylish film. This is exactly what distinguishes it from all the dark comedies of this type. Cut out all Vaughn’s trademark techniques, and you can watch it just as well as other similar films and enjoy it. The film has a good plot, cool spy moments, and even has a certain morality, which in a couple of places, let’s say, manages to hook you – and this despite the general blackness.

Incredible scene honestly. For her sake, it’s worth watching a film in the cinema – and this despite the fact that there are far from one such worthy ones there.

But with all this, it is the director’s hand that does the lion’s share of the action here. Gorgeous dialogues, wonderful action scenes (I’m sure the cruelest scene in the church will go down in cinematic history) and good banter about spy action films – that’s what makes this film worth going to see. And this is where Vaughn’s merit lies. Even the banal clichés here have managed to be worked over a bit, and now it seems that now there will be something quite expected – and bam, no!

They sit in their seats like a glove, by God!
This is not to mention the actors and their roles. Colin Firth and Samuel Jackson give excellent performances, both the former as a typical British agent and the latter as a surprisingly atypical villain. You don’t even really perceive him as a villain, and some misanthropes may even be inspired by his idea. And even the main character manages to be endearing, although it would seem, yes – two steps away from the typical cute teenager saving the world with just his left hand, isn’t it?? But fortunately no.

In general, usually in such cases it is said that you can rant for a long time – but not in this case. I told almost everything that is in this film. But at the same time, no words can replace viewing, which will bring simply unforgettable emotions. So if you haven’t seen Kingsman: The Secret Service yet, or are still deciding, the answer is definitely yes. This may be a purely subjective opinion, but it looks like we already have a contender for one of the best films of the year, and certainly one of the best non-serious ones (or is it??) films about spies. That’s all for this, let me take my leave.

P.S. Even the banal scenes with tuxedos and ties have already surpassed your “50 Shades of Gray” – what can we say about other components.

When I watched the trailer in the cinema, for the first minute I thought it was something mafia, because when I heard about the secret service, I was even offended, because I immediately remembered the children of spies mentioned above.
Then I noticed that everyone around suddenly had high expectations for this film, I even became interested. Now The Doors have also been added to the soundtracks. (Yes, sound is very important to me.) I’ll go.
Well, the article is written perfectly, plus.

Seriously, from the film I expected a typical waste that people grab, even if there is nothing special in it. But I was wrong – I’ll even say more, if before I only occasionally thought of Vaughn, now he is one of my favorite directors.
