Kingsman (2014 Matthew Vaughn)

Written by he and Jane Goldman (thus funny), film is marred by the same streak of nasty violence that tarnishes Kick-Ass; nonetheless the Bond parody is good fun (though ends on a distasteful joke). Based on Mark Millar / Dave Gibbons graphic novel 'The Secret Service'.

Colin Firth, Taron Egerton, Mark Strong, Michael Caine, Samuel L Jackson, Sophie Cookson, Sofia Boutella, Hanna Alström.

Shot by George Richmond (Wild Bill). Some of the CGI fights are ridiculous, though undeniably clever.
