Brilliant Spy Caper

Rating: 9/10 (27 October 2015)

17 years after the death of an agent on a mission, senior Kingsman agent Harry Hart - code-named 'Galahad' (played superbly by Colin Firth) convinces the agent's rebellious and troublesome teenager son Gary, nicknamed Eggsy, to recruit and train up and join the service his father worked and died for.
With great references to the James Bond films, and some brilliantly funny put-downs of those films, this film is packed with great stunts, action and humour.
The cast is incredible, especially young Taron Egerton as Eggsy.
Sir Michael Caine plays 'Arthur' head of Kingsman (quite 'M' like).
Mark Strong stars as 'Merlin', Kingsman agent and techno-whizz (who has to be the 'Q' of this movie).
There is a terrific performance from Samuel L. Jackson, who plays villain 'Valentine'.
And, as previously mentioned, Colin Firth is on top form as suave agent Harry Hart
I was VERY impressed with the film and genuinely recommend it to everyone.
