Awesome film. I actually applauded at one point--if you've seen the film, you'll know which one. Two thumbs up. And that was from just one hand! Capn Carp says "Check it out." |

Ooh, I've been wanting to say this: "That's just a British version of "James Bond", isn't it?" |

Yep… I enjoyed it! The change of pace in the church took me by surprise…. (Shades of walking dead). Hunlion |

Like Kickass meets James Bond. That's probably because Matthew Vaughn directed both. My review here: link |

The church scene was just intense and insane. |
Covert Walrus | 23 Feb 2015 12:54 p.m. PST |
I certainly enjoyed it – Worthy successor to Steed and Peel of The Avengers ( No, not your superhero lot . . . ). |
wyeayeman | 23 Feb 2015 1:08 p.m. PST |
It has the greatest line ever spoken on film. The words that would inspire the hero in every man! |
MechanicalHorizon | 23 Feb 2015 1:43 p.m. PST |
I went in ready to hate it. It was AWESOME. That church fight scene was just amazing. |
Mithmee | 23 Feb 2015 1:56 p.m. PST |
I actually applauded at one point--if you've seen the film, you'll know which one Yes I did see it yesterday and there was one scene that I really enjoyed. The words that would inspire the hero in every man! Yes it does and the results from that line is not the scene that I really enjoyeds, that one happen a bit earlier. Though the Evil Villian's plot still probably killed off around 10% if not more of the world's population. |

"Though the Evil Villian's plot still probably killed off around 10% if not more of the world's population." So, the bad guy did actually win, a little, then? Also, as Mrs. Carp points out, TANSTAAFL. |

Well he did get his party started and it did take the good guys awhile to stop him. The church scene only took like 5 or so minutes. |

I found it highly entertaining and while there was a lot of violence, the violence lacked the extreme blood and gore of some action films these days. I would never have guessed anyone could reintroduce the types of plot, witty dialogue, fun spy gear, nasty villain with a henchman/woman with a specialized fighting weapon or skill and a climatic fight with said henchman/woman fights so typical of the early Bond spy movies and make it seem so fresh. I agree with the awesomes and double thumbs up. |

I want Khurasan to make a mini of the Henchwoman! |

This was a fun movie and I liked it, but the bit of crudity at the end with the Swedish Princess was out of character and spoiled the mood a bit, I thought. I am by no means a prude, but the sex dialogue didn't work. None of the classic secret agent movies would have that kind of dialogue; sex would be hinted at in clever double entendres, not stated quite so crassly. |
Mithmee | 09 Mar 2015 5:35 p.m. PST |
That was not crud at all and a just reward for the hero for saving the world. |
Shadowcat20 | 08 Apr 2015 9:53 p.m. PST |
Sigh…no one got it….the hero always gets the girl in the END…..smile |
Triplecdad | 17 Dec 2015 5:16 a.m. PST |
Oh, Shadowcat, NOOOOOOO! I wish I had thought of that line! Too funny. |
Old Wolfman | 17 Dec 2015 7:53 a.m. PST |
On DVD, Definitely has it's moments. |
The Shadow | 17 Dec 2015 9:18 p.m. PST |
"Sigh…no one got it….the hero always gets the girl in the END" Wow! You're right! Damn! I didn't get it either. In fact, I was puzzled as to why they would end it that way! LOL. But that was the inside joke to end all inside jokes. Ummm…no pun intended. :-) |
Tango01 | 17 Dec 2015 9:43 p.m. PST |
I enjoyed a lot!… Hope to see a second part! Amicalement Armand |
Mithmee | 22 Dec 2015 2:09 p.m. PST |
Yes several times just love that part where the henchmen and evil doers get their head blown off. |

I watched most of it on Cable recently and I enjoyed it I hope to see the full movie at some point. |
GGouveia | 02 Feb 2016 8:32 p.m. PST |
Yes I watched it and found it quite good. Lucky guy at the end. |
PistolPete | 25 Feb 2016 8:48 a.m. PST |
saw it theater when it came out, own it (received as gift), and recently watching it on TV. LOVE IT! some of the best fight scenes i've watched recently. and it has Michael Caine! i heard they're working on a sequel with julianne moore as the villian. |
Brother Jim | 26 Feb 2016 9:24 a.m. PST |
I rented and watched this yesterday. I thought it was awesome! I intend to buy it when I get a job. |
Weasel | 06 Mar 2016 10:40 a.m. PST |
I didn't think it'd be any good, but we laughed our tails off when we went to see it. Well recommended. |
