The TV ads and it's movie poster are misleading. Kingsman: The Secret Service doesn't fall into the Spy Kids and Agent Cody Banks genre of film aimed primarily on kids, this is venturing more into Kick Ass territory with a substantial amount of violence and profanity that makes any James Bond movie tame.
Make no mistake however, the film is a pure delight to watch which comes as a no surprise as the movie is directed by Matthew Vaughn of X-Men First Class (2011) which for me was the best one of the series and the first Kick Ass.
When an old super-secret spy organization disguised as a tailoring shop named Kingsman in London's famed Saville Row lost one of it's membesrs, it's up to Agent Harry Hart aka Galahad (Colin Firth playing a well mannered British gentleman which is right on his alley yet who does all those fight scenes that is all new to us as moviegoers) to look for a new member as a tech CEO (Samuel L. Jackson) slowly plans to control the world.
Alongside with Michael Caine and perrenial villain playing a good guy for a change Mark Strong (Sherlock Holmes), it is amazing to watch Firth and Jackson all together on the big screen having fun and newcomer Taron Egerton who played it's young new recruit Eggsy held up well on his own with his veteran co-actors.
