Great fun, a very entertaining spy movie

Rating: 8/10 (3 May 2016)

What a fantastic 2 hours of entertainment! I'm not normally a fan of this genre of film but I found Kingsman impossible to dislike. It's the perfect mix of action and comedy with an interesting plot.
Yes, it's silly, especially the ending, but it's not intended to be taken too seriously. In fact, it wouldn't be half the movie it is without the humour - it would just be another generic spy movie. The cast are terrific, Colin Firth in particular delivers an excellent performance as spy agent Harry Hart.
Kingsman is a fun movie that fulfills its action comedy tag brilliantly. If you're looking for a serious spy movie though, this isn't it. Watch James Bond instead.
