ladies and gentlemen.. i have a new favourite film

Rating: 10/10 (17 February 2015)

I expected this film to be good.. in fact i expected this film to be great.. but nothing could have prepared me for the experience that is Kingsman: The Secret Service.. the only film which features a badass Colin Firth taking out what can be described as a sea of people single handedly.. whilst still being stylishly suave.
The film follows a basic formula.. but isn't your typical spy film its more than that. The action is on top form, the humour is on top form and the cast is perfection. As well as Colin Firth we get a brilliant performance from Samuel L Jackson as our villain Valentine. I like when a film gives a character their own traits that you can only see a certain actor pull off, and Sam Jackson nailed it as this funny as hell character, who does have the worst lisp i think i have ever heard. To top this off we have Michael Caine and Mark Strong on top form and surprisingly newcomer Taron Egerton as "Eggsy" is absolutely brilliant, from streetwise chave to charming gentlemen. This was a brilliant start for the young actor.. give the man more work! Plus the lady with fricking razor blades as legs.. yeah she was awesome.
I actually had the pleasure seeing this in cineworld's 4DX experience as well. This was fresh and cool to see. Made me feel i was in this film, when a gunshot was fired i felt it go past my head.. the seats moved (this was especially good during Eggsy's carjacking scene) and even bubbles filled the auditorium in one particular scene involving.. yes you saw this right.. exploding heads.
All-in-all Kingsman is loud, badass, bodacious, stylish, funny and overall one of the greatest action films i have seen in my time, i highly recommend this. The action was very much like kick-ass so if you have seen that then you know what you're getting in to. One scene involving badass Colin Firth on top form in a church is a prime example of one such awesome scene and had me fixed to the screen the whole time in anticipation of what was coming next. At the end of a day when i feel this good about a film and i have already vowed multiple watchings that is when my highest rating is deserved which is why i feel Kingsman deserves a 10/10. Now i feel like putting on a suit and becoming a super spy. Not sure if thats a good idea but it has to be done. A new favourite for me for sure and the best cinematic experience since Whiplash.
