Colin Firth is Harry Hart, a highly skilled and trained spy
known as a Kingsman who, when a mistake is made on a mission, is responsible
for the death of a fellow agent. As he informs the dead agent’s widow, he
leaves behind a medal and a phone number with her toddler son in case he ever
needs it.
Fast forward 17 years and Eggsy is a trouble maker. With a
criminal record and no prospects, he’s soon back in the police station after
another incident, but when he uses his phone call to call the number on the
back of the medal, he finds his future widening. With Harry as his mentor,
Eggsy is invited into the secret world of the Kingsman and taken on by the initiation
programme in an attempt to find his father’s replacement.
While Eggsy learns the skills needed to become a Kingsman,
the threat of Richmond Valentine hangs over the world as he launches a free sim
card allowing free internet access as well as calls & texts, but as the
world gets excited about this, the spy community know there has to be more to
it.
As they dig deeper into Valentine, they learn that his sim
card is a front to be able to control people and in attempt to combat climate
change manipulate them into committing violent acts in a bid to create a human
cull.
As violence descends across the globe, Eggsy & Harry
along with fellow members of the Kingsman must find a way to avoid becoming
involved and using his new found skills, destroy Valentine Wood before his
human cull is complete.
Starring Michael Caine, Samuel L Jackson and Mark Strong, I
found this action comedy to be highly entertaining despite the huge amount of
comedy violence and look forward to the sequel.
