Pros :
Cons :
overall : it's not a horrible film that is an insult to the spy genre, you could have fun watching it, and i hope you do, but it's a far cry from what Matthew Vaughn can do as a filmmaker.
- Bryce Dallas Howard and Sam Rockwell have a really good chemistry
- the soundtrack is decent good
- the first half action sequences are really fun and creative
- most of the humor doesn't feel forced, some gag are really funny
- the pacing was good, nothing feels too streched or too short
- Henry Cavill is charisma
- Dua Lipa is good for her part
Cons :
- really ugly vfx, far worse that Vaughn's previous films, the last two actions sequences have a resident evil franchise feeling, and it is not good and far from kingsman standard
- the supporting cast ( especially Jackson ) are not invested at all, feels like a glorified 1-day shooting cameo
- the plot loses itself in the second half, and tries to be absurd and smart to the point it becames just annoying
- the feeling that I watched a kingsman-lite without the charm of it or at the stylised violence of it.
- the multiples twists are sometimes good, sometimes predictable but still good, but most of the times just silly and with the impression that Vaughn tries to be more "in your face"
overall : it's not a horrible film that is an insult to the spy genre, you could have fun watching it, and i hope you do, but it's a far cry from what Matthew Vaughn can do as a filmmaker.
