a5c7b9f00b A spy organization recruits an unrefined, but promising street kid into the agency&#39;s ultra-competitive training program, justa global threat emerges from a twisted tech genius. The agent Harry &quot;Galahad&quot; Hart from the Kingsman Secret Service helps the troublemaker Gary &quot;Eggsy&quot; Unwin, who is the son of an agent that saved the lives of Harry and his team sacrificing himself seventeen years ago. Harry invites Eggsy to be candidate to the vacancy of a new agent in the agency and he is trained by Agent Merlin and competes with other candidates. Meanwhile, the Kingsmen investigate the industrialist Valentine, an insane genius of technology who is plotting a deadly plan with his assistant Gazelle to save Earth from global warming eliminating most of the population with a chip and saving only those that he has chosen. Some months ago, I read the comic The Secret Service, and I loved it. Its story is absolutely perfect: very dynamic, internally consistent and with the precise degree of humor in order not to be taken too seriously despite its violence and catastrophic global threats. Oh, and it also had an abundant number of &quot;geek&quot; references to delight the fans of comics. Therefore, I was very interested in watching the film Kingsman: The Secret Service, and even though I found it entertaining, it didn&#39;t live up to the high expectations set by the comic, mainly because co-screenwriters Matthew Vaughn (who was also the director) and Jane Goldman decided to &quot;improve&quot; the story altering abundant elements and breaking the balance of the well built characters. But, well… those complaints will only be relevant to the few people who read the comic, so I will now try to focus myself on the movie itself. The basic premise of Kingsman: The Secret Service is interesting: a centennial secret organization of expert British agents dedicated to the protection of society, not due to a mandate of the Crown, but due to a moral duty; and since they are independent from the government or political institutions, they avoid harmful influences which could corrupt their noble mission. Colin Firth brings an excellent performancethe classic &quot;knight spy&quot;, and he also displays a wide dose of charisma. On the other hand, Taron Egerton feels a bit insipid and not very charismaticthe apprentice Eggsy. And it was obviously a pleasure to see Michael Cainethe leader of the organization. The violence is quite bloody, totally justifying the &quot;R&quot; rating and giving us an idea of what action cinema can be like when it doesn&#39;t care about commercial interests which prefer a pre-teen audience. On the negative side, the screenplay feels occasionally too erratic, seeking the correct proportion between the two sub-plots (the investigation of missing celebrities and Eggsy&#39;s training), but not always achieving it. Another thing I didn&#39;t like was the superficial way in which the villain was written; the character has so many affectations that they destroy any sensation of purpose or threat. In conclusion, I think I would place Kingsman: The Secret Service at the same level of Kick- Ass, which was also directed by Vaughn: in both films, the action is pleasantly bloody, not all the characters are well written, and even though the concept is interesting, it&#39;s not always handled with enough ingenuity to take full advantage of it. Nevertheless, I think I can give a moderate recommendation to Kingsman: The Secret Servicean entertaining action film, despite not being totally satisfactory. And besides, it served for me to lower the expectations for future cinematographic adaptations of other extraordinary comics (Saga, Sex Criminals, Alias) which will probably lose many attributes on their road to the big screen. It&#39;s an unavoidable fact I will have to accept. The fans of Howard the Duck&#39;s know what I&#39;m talking about. At once a slick spy movie in the Sixties&#39; James Bond mold, while also being a satire of those films, Kingsman: The Secret Service reminds me of films like Hot Fuzz in how it sends up the tropes of a genre by making a good movie in that genre at the same time. The Kingsmen are an independent spy organization modeled after the ideals of being a gentleman and protecting others. Director Matthew Vaughn delivers more of what he is known for here, slick visuals, kinetic action sequences, and a fair amount of blood spatter, and yet I found myself not only entertained but emotionally involvedwell. A large part of the film&#39;s success in those regards is the relationship between Colin Firth&#39;s Kingsman named Galahad and his twenty-something protégé, Taron Egerton&#39;s Eggsy who goes from a street kid to Kingsman all in the course of a two hour movie. The bottom line is, you wind up liking all of the characters because Vaughn cast the right actors in each of the roles, I mean, Samuel L. Jackson is so charismaticthe Bondish bad guy Valentine that you almost want him to succeed. While had this film dialed down the blood and usage of the f-word it could have easily achieved a PG-13 rating, compared to a lot of other action movies in the modern era, this one is almost tame (key word, almost). Truth be told, none of the gratuity of this film bothered memuchother movies made in a similar vein, and a large part of that is that the film never really lingers on anything gratuitous, it just kind of moves on with the story, focusing more so on the characters and what&#39;s happening with them. So at the end of the day, if you enjoy a good spy movie, or simply an action movie with likable characters and some clever laughs interspersed throughout, Kingsman: The Secret Service will more than satisfy.<br/><br/>I give Kingsman: The Secret Service a 9 out of 10! This is pitiful stuff, and, like the violence, it eats away at the blitheness for which Kingsman strives, leaving an aftertaste of desperation that the Connery of “Goldfinger,” say, would not have dreamed of bequeathing. The sadness is that Firth, alone in the film, does raise the spectre of those days, radiating a lightly amused reserve amid the havoc. During his training to become a Kingsman. We never see him train in combat, but we see at least a few weeks, to a few months pass during his training. When Harry is first in his coma, he is clean-shaven. When he awakes from his coma, he has a full, thick beard and long hair. So it&#39;s safe to say Eggsy and Roxy learned how to fight and shoot like a Kingsman agent in that time. Also, it is mentioned that Eggsy was in the Marines and was an accomplished gymnast,wellbeing somewhat skilled in parkour. So he likely adapted to his training quickly. Yes, there&#39;s an extra scene that begins shortly after the credits start. The stinger lasts about two minutes. After Eggsy discovers that Arthur was in league with Valentine, he goes straight to Merlin with the news. Merlin sees the countdown to V-Day on Arthur&#39;s phone and realizes that Arthur could have corrupted more Kingsman. There simply wasn&#39;t enough time to vet them all in order to find out who could be trusted. So it was up to Eggsy, Roxy and Merlin to stop Valentine. It&#39;s likely that Merlin would have told Eggsy he still had a parachute or if Eggsy kept his wits about him, he would have tried pulling his ripcord anyways.<br/><br/>The reason Merlin did not, was that Roxy and Eggsy were tumbling so close together near the terminal line. Merlin was counting on Roxy grabbing him. Also if Eggsy or Roxy deployed their chutes in close proximity to each other, their chutes would likely be tangled and they would plummet to their deaths.
