its got great action but allot of bland characters.
i don't get the hype for the church scene. great action but for me the camera shakes to much for it actually be great. it just hinders everything it tries to do.the first or so action scene also has weird editing that im not entirely on board with.
its story starts out promising and it sets up characters well but they don't go anywhere, i don't find eggsy interesting or merlin or roxy or whoever else. samuel L jackson gave one of his lamest performances i've seen of him so far tb.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A stylish, irreverent spy caper that treats action sequences as witty set pieces and finds genuine heart in the unlikely mentorship between a street kid and a old-school secret agent. It's thrilling and knowing without taking itself too seriously.
