Kingsman: The Secret Service

Kingsman: The Secret Service is a 2014 spy action comedy film directed by Matthew Vaughn. It is the first instalment in the Kingsman film series and is also based on the comic book series of the same name, written by Mark Millar and Dave Gibbons, published by Millarworld and based on concept by Millar and Vaughn. The film follows Gary "Eggsy" Unwin's (Taron Egerton) recruitment by Harry Hart (Colin Firth) into Kingsman, a secret spy organisation. Eggsy joins a mission, in brutal and comedic fashion, to tackle a global threat from Richmond Valentine (Samuel L. Jackson), a wealthy megalomaniac and eco-terrorist wanting to deal with climate change by wiping out most of humanity. Mark Strong and Michael Caine play supporting roles. Kingsman: The Secret Service premiered at the Butt-Numb-A-Thon festival on 13 December 2014, and was theatrically released in the United Kingdom on 29 January 2015 and United States on 13 February 2015, by 20th Century Fox. The film received generally positive reviews from critics with praise for its stylised action sequences, direction, acting, antagonist, visual style, musical score and dark humour, although some scenes were criticised for being over-the-top. The film grossed over $414 million worldwide, becoming Vaughn's most commercially successful film to date. In 2015, the film won the Empire Award for Best British Film. A sequel titled Kingsman: The Golden Circle was released in September 2017, while a prequel titled The King's Man was theatrically released on 22 December 2021.

- Who is he? - Some climate change doomsayer. Expounds something called "Gaia theory"... about the world healing itself, or some such. But what's curious, is he's not actually missing.

It's all yours. And don't forget your membership proposal. Try picking a more suitable candidate this time. 17 years and still... evolving with the times remains an entirely foreign concept to you. Need I remind you, I wouldn't be here if it weren't for that young man? He was as much Kingsman material as any of them. More so. But he wasn't exactly one of us, was he?

- Got any Rizla, babe? - No. Why don't you do your mum a favor, go down to the shop and get some? - Get them yourself. - Oi. What have I said to you about speaking to Dean like that? Three's a crowd, innit? Why don't Dean's poodle go? I'll tell you what. Why don't you take this, go and get some Rizlas... get yourself some sweets? And while you're gone... we'll show your mother how three can be good company.

If Dean treats your mum so bad, why doesn't she leave him? Low self-esteem. That's her problem. Fuck off. Why would she have low self-esteem? Eggsy's mum is well fit.
