TBH i was surprised that Roxy wasn't the love interest.

I was glad they didn't turn her into the love interest. I really enjoyed this movie and was glad I decided to go see it on a whim.

I was pleasantly surprised at that as well, that was awesome.

Me too. But... don't hold your breath for the sequel. Unless they're going to take her the Moneypenny route, perpetual UST.

I KNOW. I was dreading it the whole time, and then no! (I could have done without seeing a random girl's ass, but hey whatever. If that's the price I have to pay to not have the token chick be the love interest, fine.)

This movie was crazy fun. And I was really happy she didn't become a Bond-girl-type character. I like seeing friendships just be friendships: no romance, no betrayal, no death.

This movie was fucking great.

(Anonymous) 2015-03-21 12:24 am (UTC)(link)
Am I the only one who just didn't like this movie? My friends recced it highly so I finally saw it, and maybe my expectations were too high, but I just found it boring and often really awkward, like it didn't know if it wanted to be serious or campy.

...I'm assuming you haven't seen any of Matthew Vaughn's other movies, because they're exactly the same style as Kingsman.

I knew exactly what I was getting into with this movie, and I liked it because I did.

(Anonymous) 2015-03-21 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
just Kick-Ass and First Class, which I assume are not his typical fare.

(Anonymous) 2015-03-21 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
DA

But Kick Ass and Kingsman are rather similar in style. First Class is very different, but if you've seen Kick Ass, Kingsman shouldn't be a big surprise.

But they usually don't kill off the girl. They kill off the mentor. Which is why I really shouldn't have been surprised that Harry died, but I still was. :/

They better bring him back for the sequel, mostly because I really think that the movie will NEED him. He's just such a strong character.

(Anonymous) 2015-03-21 03:13 pm (UTC)(link)
That's just it, though. Roxy wasn't The Girl in this movie. She was the Friendly Competitor/Brother In Arms. And that character dies all the time in action movies.

The surprise with Harry, for me at least, was when he died. Not only did his character arc not really get a resolution, but he died on top of a heap of personal failure (Eggsy washing out, tricked by Valentine, massive loss of personal control at the church). It was totally realistic that he would have died there, but it was also really jarring because that's not how those characters usually go out.

I can't imagine how they'd bring him back for the sequel, unless it's as a flashback or a recording, which would be kind of a sad followup for such a kickass character.

N!S: I LOVE this movie!

S!: The only thing that really surprised me was that I really thought they were going to kill her off. I sort of figured the dog thing was there to soften the blow.
