James Bond on Steroids Equals a Masterpiece

Rating: 10/10 (19 February 2015)

This movie surprised me in every way. I expected a decent action movie, instead I get a masterpiece of a movie that manages to execute its plot fantastically.
Today so many movies have a long beginning, introducing us to the characters and the plot, but it get's boring as nothing really happens, and so the result is just an exciting last half. Kingsman: The Secret Service however does not make you wait and begins the movie on a BANG!
Another thing movies tries is to have several plot lines at the same time, but it gets confusing, and they loose the audience. Kingsman, on the other hand executes this perfectly. Every plot line has a beginning, climax and a satisfying end.
So what is it that makes Kingsman execute everything so nicely? First of all a great cast. Colin Firth proves that he can play an action role, and performs excellent. He does his character so well its worthy of lots of awards. The rest of the cast, even the ones appearing for just a short period of time does nothing else but make the movie shine.
Second reason is the perfect action scenes. I thought I had seen well executed action scenes, but Kingsman takes it to another level. The reason for this is use of the camera, and the pure brutality. Every move, every punch, and gunshot was so satisfying it makes you begging for more, and they deliver.
But Kingsman also knows how to balance the movie, and when the movie is not hardcore action scenes it manages to stay bad-ass by having lots of humorous scenes, and exciting interactions. The plot line, twists and buildup is perfect. And just as the conversations and buildup would get boring in any other movie they perfectly time it and go back to action.
Lots of movies have good action, or good plot lines, but no movie has ever executed it as well as Kingsman: The Secret Service. This movie is a must watch, and should be bought on blue-ray!
