In the first Kingsman movie, the movie-loving world got to see Colin Firth in a very different light. One of the kings of the rom-com genre got to kick so much ass in the movie, with the opening bar fight scene and the church brawl being two stand out sequences.
This time around, Ralph Fiennes gets to fill that role. While he has appeared in Bond movies before, Fiennes was rarely in the thick of the actual action. The King's Man puts him in front and centre for some of the movie's biggest set-pieces.Okay, deep breath... Gemma Arterton , Rhys Ifans , Matthew Goode , Tom Hollander , Harris Dickinson , Daniel Brühl , Djimon Hounsou , Charles Dance , Stanley Tucci and Aaron Taylor-Johnson all feature.FIVE.
As mentioned above, Fiennes gets to throw himself into some great action set-pieces, and The King's Man will most definitely satisfy the adrenaline rush required by action movie fans. From an incredible hand-to-hand fight scene with Rasputin, to an intense sequence at the front lines of World War I, to a climax that - without getting into spoilers - involves a crashing plane, a mountain climb, a goat, an isolated shed and a big shoot out.
disneyplus it's terrible, really awful.
disneyplus It's so boring. I loved the first Kingsman movie but somehow this was incredibly vanilla.
