Your golden ticket to entertainment

Rating: 10/10 (18 February 2015)

If you are looking for pure entertainment, action, laughs and Colin Firth obliterating bad guys then this is the film for you! Before I saw this film I was expecting a mickey take of Bond and other films of that genre. Kingsman is so much more.
The Secret Service is surprisingly funny as it is brutal. Director Matthew Vaughn has achieved a masterpiece here and perfectly weaves thrills and spills with a bundle of laughs that will leave you craving more. The action sequences are superb and puts Bond to shame. Moving at a hurtling speed to rival Bolt, boredom is not possible.
The acting is of a top notch standard. Colin Firth and Mark Strong as usual do not disappoint and newcomer Taron Egerton will no doubt follow in the footsteps of Taylor-Johnson, from Kickass, to stardom. Samuel L. Jackson is simply hilarious as the McDonald's loving, lisp afflicted billionaire madman who perfectly fills the shoes of the 'bad guy'.
Classy will certainly be the new cool as youngsters abandon their snapback's and sweatpants and head straight for Saville Row. No more 'swag'. The bespoke suit is back!
