OK Spy Flick!

Rating: 5/10 (28 November 2016)

Colin Firth, Taron Egerton, Samuel L. Jackson and Michael Caine star in this 2014 action film based on the comic book, "The Secret Service." This takes place in England where we meet spy, Harry (Firth) who recruits young man, Eggsy (Egerton) to be in a top secret organization, "Kingsman" since his late, father saved his life. Eggsy gets off to a rough start, but eventually follows in Harry's footsteps. Jackson (Pulp Fiction) plays corrupt, computer whiz, Valentine, Caine (Batman Begins) plays Arthur, the head of Kingsman and Mark Hamill (Star Wars) also appears briefly as Professor Arnold. This is an OK flick with a decent cast paying tribute/poking fun of spy genre films and shows (mainly James Bond). It also has aspects of "Kill Bill" and "Men in Black" thrown in. Give this a try.
