Review

But, There was an impression of slow heat while watching Kingsman. Especially the beginning when Eggsy was still practicing as an agent, the conflict in the film still seemed to confuse the direction.

Similarly, humor is still uncertain, feels like Matthew Vaughn holding back. Maybe so the audience can feel the climax in the film slowly and does not seem boring.

Kingsman also presents futuristic things from gadget equipment and sophisticated weapons used by this secret agent. Whatever it is, it is clear that Kingman is one type of genre that is very interesting to watch this February. Kingsman starts airing 11 February 2015 in your favorite theaters.
