a joke of violence

Hollywood action films include Die Hard, Fast and Furious romantic preludes, and superhero flying performances, but there is also a class of subversive films that reflect on violence, ridicule violence and gangsters, from the two big smoking guns to killing The coolness of Dead Bill has now become a very gentleman agent. In a sense, the slightly humorous 007 is the ace agent of this movie. And this is not a pure agent film, there is a dark shell like Spider-Man, we are an independent third-party agent knight, we will make a lot of sacrifices. Purely suspenseful films such as Mission Impossible 4 and Mission Impossible 3, which were shot across the world, are also a feature. In South Korea, a very violent, bloody and savage fighting method has been developed, that is, hand-to-hand combat. This vein has later Tom Yum Kung, raids, and Muay Thai ruthlessness. Hong Kong's action movies are still very romantic fights, not ruthless enough, not dark enough, not elegant enough, but very common people, similar to hard work.
In short, Kingsman can be said to have opened up a whole new field of gentleman fighting. Train to be a gentleman murderer, which seems more like a Japanese thing. It's actually pretty good to make such a cool movie. But think about it, saving the planet by depopulating it, rather than changing that kind of industrial production, does it work? Fewer people, less harm to the earth? This is a serious question. Is it really necessary to reduce the population through war to make the earth's environment better? What kind of ecological view is this?
What's the point of view? Immigrants, move to other planets, explore the second earth in outer space, or plague, virus, or nuclear bomb, or return to a very beautiful way of life by returning to agricultural production methods, but is this possible? Movies about ecological issues are also different from disaster movies, but they often paralyze people's thinking about disaster movies. This film is completely intoxicated by violence, and pays no attention to the core conflict. In other words, the agent is trying to prevent all this, and as for whether it is justified, it is irresponsible.

    Fuck, this comic comic is too burning, headshots burst out big fireworks! Both generations of Kingsman are so handsome, especially Uncle Faith, who is in suits and ties, sees my hands in my heart and can’t wait to donate my knees on the spot! Don't ask again, "Which one is better to kill like a gentleman", the annual popcorn must be it!

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.
