It isn't a 38% bad, but it's fairly mediocre. It could've been a decent spy flick if they didn't overdo it on the "plot twists". I get this movie is trying to be "meta" when it comes to the spy genre but sometimes too much is too much. This is also one of those movies where the two leads are suppose to have chemistry, but I never felt it. Bryce Dallas Howard and Sam Rockwell are amazing actors, but something about their performance just felt flat. The only performance I enjoyed was probably Bryan Cranston because he was giving it his all in this movie, but only he can do soo much with his character being one note.

With that said, the action scenes are really well done. Sure there are some CGI in there, but at least I can follow the action. From the choreography, to the set designs, to the production value it isn't bad. There was clearly love put into this movie, but even I felt exhausted by the end of the movie.

5.5/10

It taking place in the Kingsman universe was a really big surprise though. I understand why the marketing didn't reveal it other than itb being done by the same director.

TBF, my wife disagrees with my review of it. She loved the movie and thought both lead actors did a phenominal job. I just wasn't feeling it between the two.

No they don't. All they say is that it's the same director as Kingsman, but it doesn't tell you it's the same universe. They only reveal that info in a mid credit scene.

One of the teasers I watched literally says "a Kingsmans film" at the end of it

Oh shit, well I'll apologize if there was a trailer like that. The trailer I saw never mentioned it.
