The modern era has been replaced by the past and this change was, dare I say, bold. Not everyone, in my opinion, can swallow the fact that we are suddenly no longer in a modern setting with all the trappings of the past, but in the past without the Kingsman toys. Compared to the previous films, this installment is simply different and I believe it will find both its enthusiasts and haters. I was satisfied, even though I was apprehensive at first. The opening was a blast, but then there were moments that I didn't enjoy and I thought it was probably going to be a dud. Luckily it wasn't and it didn't take long and after Rasputin came on the scene, who by the way was the best character of the whole film for me, it grabbed me and didn't let go until the very end. That was great by the way and explained the origin of the series beautifully, but I'm getting a bit ahead of myself. Classically, the action didn't disappoint, which is simply superbly filmed in this series, and it's no different here. It's maybe a little weaker, but that's because as I mentioned, story-wise we're a few years ahead of the previous installments so the real nuts and bolts of the Kingsman outfit isn't here yet. Despite that, the action here is again beautifully executed, especially in one passage that I devoured and thought I wasn't even watching the Kingsman series but a proper war movie. As I mentioned before. The third installment is just different. What also changed a bit was the humor. It's there again and it's cool again, but I felt like it was in smaller doses and what definitely makes the third installment different is the overall seriousness. There are some emotional moments that may have been in the previous volumes, but they didn't take me nearly as much as they did here. The war passages had something going for them and were, for me, the best part of the entire film. To sum up. The new Kingsman went about it a little differently. He changed the time period, the characters and it changed the whole feel of the franchise. But for me, he did it right, and although I would have loved to see a modern Kingsman with Eggsy again, this was a nice change and for me, it was a good one. The only minus for me remains that the Kalinka song that was heard in the trailer wasn't in the film. For me, a good film that I recommend.… Expand

Coming from the first which is a fun popcorn movie to a second the upped the ridiculousness to a point that should have killed off this "franchise". This third installment is abysmal to say the least. It's a well shot movie and the backdrops are all top notch. But the acting,direction,and plot/lines to say are hysterically bad. Almost flirts with "it's so bad it's good". At a certain point the only thing I can convey is "Avoid the time sink" do anything else. It will end up as better time spent.… Expand

I think Vaughn does well with the fun, kinetic action but he always falls short on the more serious notes in his films for me and unfortunately, it seems he leaned heavier into the drama on this one.

This new one goes backward in time and quality. First, it’s an origin story that sets up how the secret British organization was created. Second, it’s not anywhere as cool or fun as its predecessors. They featured cool gadgets and technology, snazzy visuals and dizzying fights. Not this time. Ralph Fiennes stars as a nobleman who swears off war to protect his son (Harris Dickinson). Nevertheless, they get involved with an international gang of tyrants who threaten world peace. There are a few robust encounters, but it takes more than an hour of dull dialogue to get to anything juicy. Even then, there’s a lack of excitement and inventiveness that sinks the movie’s prospects even further.… Expand

Business is business and profit is profit. Even when the money earned does not reach monstrous levels.

Now, no movie is necessary. That's pretty clear from the start, so in a franchise it's all about utility, and frankly I can't understand what utility Matthew Vaughn saw in exploring a prequel to Kingsman. I really don't.

The first Kingsman was an amusing breath of absurdity considering how serious the spy genre had become.
Its middling and somewhat disappointing sequel explored the same path and, even with the additions, failed to project the same freshness.

But a prequel? Set before the first world war? There's zero utility in that origin.

The King's Man have certain amusing elements, some funny moments, but even with the good cast on his hands, Matthew Vaughn can't bring any vitality to this story, or at least enough charm to make you care about them and what they're doing.

And even worse, he's selling you a sequel into this storyline, even though he's also preparing Kingsman 3.
But whether or not this will become a reality will depend a lot on the box office, which I don't think will be generous this time around.
Especially if you remember the film was postponed 9 times.
The King's Man is arriving 2 long years after its original release date.

If you have no other options, I admit it will beat the tedium. Other than that, this was really unmemorable.… Expand

Although it has been out about a month now, I finally got round to seeing The King's Man, a prequel of sorts to the Kingsman film series.

The film has some big-name actors in it, Ralph Fiennes, Gemma Arterton, Rhys Ifans, Matthew Goode, Tom Hollander, Harris Dickinson, Daniel Brühl, Djimon Hounsou, and Charles Dance, and is set during World War I and covers the emergence of the Kingsman organization.

A collection of some of the worst "bad guys" from history have come together to plot a war to wipe out millions, and Orlando Oxford (Ralph Fiennes) is in a race against time to stop them.

Now I was a big fan of the Kingsmen films, I thought they were well made, had some great funny moments in them, captivating characters and a good plot. However, this prequel is awful.
It is advertised as a "spy action-comedy film" yet they seemingly forgot to add in any comedy.

The majority of the film tries to be a war film (Think 1917 by Sam Mendes), and then the last 30 minutes it wakes up into something a bit closer to what you were expecting. If you were hoping this would be a modern spy film, you will also be disappointed, instead of gadgets and clever set pieces, you have way too much old-fashioned espionage, which is ok if you thought you were going to a serious war film.

By the time did kick into gear, I had already lost interest, and just wanted it to end. The film's makers, clearly did not have a solid vision here, and instead of giving us more of what The Kingsmen gave us, they tried something different, and for me it failed.

With the exception of one scene with Rasputin licking Ralph Fiennes leg, the film bored me. There were some nice action scenes, but I just didn't have any emotional investment into the characters to care.

The film is poor, and is the worst in the franchise so far.

The Good
The last half hour is decent, a great scene on the side of a cliff, Ralph Fiennes is a great actor, just a shame he was given a pile of crap to act from.

The Bad
The first 90 minutes, I just found myself constantly looking at the time, and wishing something that was advertised would happen.

Overall
For a franchise I am a big fan of, this really let me down, and for any fan of the franchise this is one film that needs to quickly be memory holed.

I score The King's Man a poor 3/10… Expand

I enjoyed seeing the depiction of key historical events, and the one battle scene shown was one of the best in the movie although it was pretty outlandish that they made it out that everything that happened during the war occured because of two secret spy organizations that were pulling the strings. In addition to being a war movie,this was also, of course, a spy flick. A lot of the slower espionage scenes didn't work for me and felt like a slog, but when the fighting did begin it was a lot of fun. There was spectacular sword fighting choreography throughout with some longer takes than you usually see in today's cut happy cinema. The action sequence at the climax was also spectacular. It was unlike anything I've seen in a movie before, and I thought it was very well executed. I thought the King's Man was a really good time. It doesn't have much emotional payoff or intriguing thematic beats, but it does what is expected and does it well.… Expand

This has to have either been a hack job in the editing room or a pre-existing spec script that was converted to a franchise vehicle in the last minute. I refuse to believe this is anything Matthew Vaughn originally intended it to be — he's just that talented of a filmmaker. For the first time in a while, though, not even his dazzling fight scenes can hoist this movie into the realms of watchability. Completely disappointed.… Expand

Tiene una cosa muy chula, pero un poco espada de doble filo: mezcla hechos históricos (está basada en la época de la primera Guerra Mundial) con su propia ficción, al estilo Assassin's Creed, y está guay, porque es una forma de justificarlo, pero por otro lado, se toma demasiadas licencias narrativas a golpe de pecho.
Las escenas de acción, sobre todo las de combate, son lo más, tiene momentos muy buenos, impactantes, giros de guion, algunos mejores que otros, y en general está guay, aunque no deja de ser una peli medio chorra de acción/comedia/thriller, pero logra sus objetivos.

· Cosas buenas: el reparto es maravilloso, es más seria y oscura que sus antecesoras, la acción es brutal, y tiene un apartado bélico que no te lo esperas y funciona muy bien.
· Cosas malas: lo dicho de las licencias narrativas, el villano final, mucho peor que los anteriores, sobre todo Rasputin, y se hace algo larga para lo que quiere contar.

"The King's Man" with a cast of mostly unknowns was release-delayed for almost 2-years as if it were worthy of such a wait, but no, it wasn't. This qualifies as nominee for worst origin-story ever. It's a very British, high-tea and all, tale"The King's Man" with a cast of mostly unknowns was release-delayed for almost 2-years as if it were worthy of such a wait, but no, it wasn't. This qualifies as nominee for worst origin-story ever. It's a very British, high-tea and all, tale of World War I with only the final three hurried minutes showing the establishment of the Kingsman Agency, like it was an afterthought, an oops, "we forgot to link our boring war story to Kingsman." Look, there were some interesting moments but taken as a whole it was a really poor effort, even the stupid post-credits scene, very disappointed.… Expand

Its like a Kingman movie, but worse in every conceivable way! In an effort to keep the story simple and relatable a lot of European history is condensed down to coincidences and someone being someone's nephew etc. Its literally like someoneIts like a Kingman movie, but worse in every conceivable way!

This movie was made for no one. Every creative decision was a misstep. There is no enjoyment to be had here.

Pro critics are correct, this is really two stories, two movies which tonally don't mesh together for audiences. 10/10 for first movies, ending with death of Rasputin. This is Matthew Vaughan at his best.

This is Matthew Vaughan at his best. It does belong with the earlier two movies. 8/10 for the second movie which tries to span the rest of WWI, ignoring the wrenching tone change into tragedy and loss.
Still if you love good movie making craft, lots to love here. The Blu-ray extras makes this even more obvious. King's Man would likely have made $350 million or more if not for covid.… Expand

Pathetic british self-glorification in a nutshell - please isolate the "island" so that this type of drivel doesn't get out.

I really enjoyed this. It was as entertaining, though in a slightly different way, as the first movie in the franchise. It’s more old school Bond film~esque with a reimagining of some of real world people and very real events. The violenceI really enjoyed this. It was as entertaining, though in a slightly different way, as the first movie in the franchise. It’s more old school Bond film~esque with a reimagining of some of real world people and very real events. The violence was shocking occasionally and the excellent film making definitely helped to execute and lift some of these moments to a high dramatic effect.

It’s set during the events of the first world war and it uses this setting and period to perfection with the way it’s reimagined. There are a small misdirections that I didn’t see coming and with it several other interesting twists.

The acting and production are really good down to the score and costumes. The only thing that sucks is how long we had to wait for this to come out. It’s finally streaming so if you have HBO max this is definitely something you should watch, just don’t bring the kids. There’s a lot of other adult content other then violence.… Expand

I'll give it this though, it looked fantastic. If they could have woven the story through actual and historically accurate events, they would have had a modest success. They chose, however, to bend history to their will way too much. Then it just got stupid and boring. The knife fight between the trenches did me in. It had a League of Extraordinary Gentlemen vibe, and it shouldn't have.… Expand

Story for Kingsman origins is very strange. It's because authors try to play with drama and popcorn action movie simultaneously. The result - story goes from good action to boring cliche scenes. Also final is very frustrating and even bad because in the middle story too many time wastes on main characters, so main story just quickly ends and we see ending credits. It's very frustrating.

Acting was ok, some good new faces in the franchise and of course cameos for old characters. Action and visual is still good, but not as it was in first two films.

As a Kingsman fan I don't recommend this film, maybe next will be better.… Expand

It was good, but maybe not the most memorable. For those who expected comedy levels as in first Kings Man movies, then this certainly is more serious story and isn't as funny.
