Forced to dress like this-the new benchmark for secret agent movies

(No spoilers)

If you just want to watch a movie for entertainment, you should watch "Kingsman"; if you want to make a commercial action movie, you should also watch Kingsman.
Many people commented on one When a movie is so good, it’s often said: “It turns out that the movie can still be made like this!” (Here named "Boyhood" and "Avatar")
But a really good movie should tell the film industry: "The movie should be made like this. ."
Kingsman told us how to make future spy movies.

In the past period of time, the genre of special agent movies has reached a bottleneck. The 007 series, the benchmark of pretending to be forced (not derogatory), has been pretending to be forced, and has never failed to pretend to be forced, then it is better to pay attention to Putin the Great these years; some movies have been called many big names (such as Red2), but it is difficult to hide that they are just a bunch of big names. The fact that I want to pretend to be subordinate; China is still working on "Police Story", but the exhausted humor and the degenerating representative of someone can only make the audience want to buy him a watch.

Kingsman brought a new wind, just like the superhero movies brought by the Women’s Federation and Guardians of the Galaxy, but more serious.
The combination of pretense, big name, humor, and comics is unprecedented. This is Kingsman.

After watching the trailer, my expectation is just a popcorn movie. Uncle Colin can break through and perform a play, maybe Samuel Jackson can also make a breakthrough, nothing more. Unexpectedly, China Everbright has four people including Colin, Jackson, Michael Caine, and Mark Strong, and each of them finds something new on their own fixed facial makeup.
Needless to say, Colin has transformed from a British male gentleman into a super capable British male gentleman. Michael Caine, from a loyal and wise old man to a black-bellied and cold-blooded wise old man. Mark Strong, the bad bald boss turned into a good bald second. And Samuel Jackson... finally took off his blindfold and put down his serious and upright face. Although he could no longer wear curly hair to recite the Bible, he became a perverted and cute evil hippie. Of course, there are also the starring children...Wearing glasses and a suit, it really looks like Uncle Colin, a good job.

This film is also a breakthrough for the director himself. As the director of the new X-Men series and the King of Sea Bian, Vaughan has already played through this Marvel style with small humor, small details and small cuteness. So many people shout that this movie has a strong sense of comics, but it is inevitable.
But this time it's not just about bringing the Marvel style to the lifeless secret agent movie-don't forget that Vaughan is also the director of Stardust and the producer of several of Gary's pinnacle works-everyone who has seen these movies knows these movies. What are the common characteristics: good rhythm, good response before and after. This film also inherits these advantages. At the end of the climax three times, the "last-second rescue" pulls and releases the tension of the fishing audience and echoes the multiple lines in front, which can be called a textbook (including fireworks also echoes, you know). Every prop, setting or action in the film echoes in the back (believe me, you can't name the ones that don't echo once).
One of my favorite echoes is the fate of the male lead rivals Charlie and Michael Cain. Uncle Colin picked the male lead, and Kane picked Charlie, who was born in Cambridge (only a brief hint in the film). As a result, if there is a teacher, there will be an apprentice. It is not spoiled here.
One more detail: if you look closely at the US summit, you will find how hard the makeup artist is...
These advantages are often not available in Marvel's pipeline movies. A commercial film is so attentive, perhaps because of the sentence in the end caption, "I would like to dedicate this film to my mother."


All in all, on the basis of an excellent commercial film, this film has various breakthroughs, enough to influence the spy film in the next few years. What about commercial films? Isn’t it a good movie that people who love movies can learn? Those who do not consciously lower their scores when they see a commercial film, apply the lines of another benchmark-setting film: What we watch for when we watch a movie? The unexpected virtue of violence. In other

words, the quality of this film is enough to introduce domestic cinema chains. However, it is estimated that you have to walk away to avoid being cut. British, you are also very bureaucratic, you know what to do.

Besides, some English dialects in this film are so hard to hear...

Another complaint: Mr. V, there are not so many people in Africa using mobile phones. Isn’t your plan really to let blacks rule the world...

One more
thing: In the comments, a classmate said: “No, it’s Africa, it must be China. People rule the world, that SIM card will definitely be choked to death by China Mobile Unicom. "
Yes, this kind of SIM card must not be issued in China, and the network is decisively blocked. Valentine can’t figure out the agents in Beijing (that line is said to have been deleted?), which directly led to the failure of his ambitions hahaha

Kingsman: The Secret Service quotes

  • Harry Hart: [Grabs a fountain pen from the wall] Now, I've had a lot of fun with this. One of our finest examples of chemical engineering. Poison. Harmless when ingested. But at a time, convenient to you...

    [Pulls pen clip outward]

    Harry Hart: It can be remotely activated. Primed.

    [Pushes clip back]

    Harry Hart: Lethal.

    [Eggsy looks at the gold cigarette lighters on the wall]

    Gary 'Eggsy' Unwin: And what about these? What do these do? Electrocute you?

    Harry Hart: Don't be ridiculous. It's a hand grenade.

    Gary 'Eggsy' Unwin: Shut up.

    Harry Hart: If you want to electrocute someone, you'll need a signet ring.

    [Grabs a ring from the wall]

    Harry Hart: A gentleman traditionally wears the signet on his left hand, but a Kingsman wears it on whatever hand happens to be dominant. If you touch the contact behind the ring, it delivers 50,000 volts.

    Gary 'Eggsy' Unwin: [Pointing at the smartphones and tablets on the opposite wall] And what about them? What makes them so special?

    [Eggsy grabs a lighter while Hart is not looking]

    Harry Hart: Nothing. That technology is caught up with the spy world.

    [Hart and Eggsy head back to the main lobby]

    Harry Hart: Put it back, Eggsy.

    [Eggsy puts the lighter back]

  • Kingsman Tailor: Perfect timing. Gentleman's just finished.

    [Valentine and Gazelle step out of Fitting Room 1]

    Valentine: Mr. DeVere. What a coincidence. You are totally the reason I'm here. When you left my house, I was thirsting for that dope-ass smoking jacket you had on. And since I'm going to Royal Ascot, apparently you need one of these penguin suits. Here I am. What are you doing here?

    [Valentine shakes hands with Eggsy]

    Valentine: What's up, man? Richmond Valentine.

    Harry Hart: This is my new valet. I was just introducing him to my tailor.

    Valentine: Another coincidence. So am I.

    Harry Hart: Did you have any chance to think further on my proposal?

    Valentine: Most definitely. My people will be getting in touch with you very soon. I guarantee it.

    Harry Hart: A word of advice: Ascot requires top hat. I might suggest Lock & Co. Hatters, St. James.

    Valentine: 'Lox', as in smoked fish?

    Harry Hart: As in 'locked up'.

    Valentine: Oh. I have trouble understanding you people sometimes. You all talk so funny.
