Last week we saw the trailer, as well as some images released for the film. Today, we get the first set of images & they’re disappointing. No explosions or fights anywhere! One hints that will, probably, be what happens shortly after.
On the other hand, we do see Samuel L. Jackson in all his glory. Looking like a pimp mixed with a Savile row tailor. Is he the keeper of the entrance to the super-secret base?
The rest, they seem to be a mix of “publicity shots” and images from what ended up in the trailer.
It does seem to have a lot in common with The Man From U.N.C.L.E. and the Our Man Flint films. That idea may change if I get hold of the copy of the comic book the film is based on. Unlikely but who knows it maybe available as a promo item closer to when the film hits the Silver screen.
Based upon the acclaimed comic book and directed by Matthew Vaughn, KINGSMAN: THE SECRET SERVICE tells the story of a super-secret spy organization that recruits an unrefined but promising street kid into the agency’s ultra-competitive training program just as a global threat emerges from a twisted tech genius.
