As someone who is a huge fan of action movies, this is definitely one that i would watch over and over again. When the movie began I was hoping it was going to be another Quentin Tarantino type film. The story is of a young rebel, Eggsy, who is recruited to face multiple challenges in order to be welcomed into Kingsman. Colin Firth did a fabulous job as the mentor of Eggsy. He shows him the ropes and acts like the father that Eggsy lost as a child. All the action and fight scenes are so well choreographed and makes the whole movie on the edge of your seat hoping that none of the characters die or get injured. The shots remind me of "Birdman", many of the scenes (especially fight scenes) are filmed in one shot and it takes a long time to execute it. The director also made the lighting bright to show every move the characters were making. Another reason this movie does so well is the story line, the idea behind the story is very strange and different. I love when stories are wildly different. It is more intriguing to watch and learn what happens next. If there was an award to give for best cinematography and story, Kingsman: The Secret Service, should win every award. The writers were not afraid to be bold and the director knew hoe he wanted things filmed and how to show the life of a rebellious and young Eggsy become a fine spy from the teachings and life lessons from his mentor and step in father, Harry (Colin Firth). Personally, the film tops any Tarantino film. I would watch this every time it came on.
