James Bond fans will get their money’s worth here. Tonight, The King’s Man – The Beginning is a prequel on TV that examines the origins of the secret organization from the two Kingsman films. Of course, we have to look back in time to find out, but that doesn’t detract from the crazy spy entertainment.
Today on TV: This is what The King’s Man – The Beginning is about
At the beginning of the 20th century, dark powers were planning nothing less than a global war that would pit the USA, England and Russia against each other. This would mean the death of millions of people and of course real gentlemen could not let it go. World must be saved once again.
Fortunately, there is already an ideal means of confronting such tyrants and criminals: a Secret service, and an independent one that is well equipped. Curtain up for the nobleman Orlando Oxford (Ralph Fiennes) and his son Conrad (Harris Dickinson), who, together with their allies, must win a race against time.
Disney
The King’s Man – The Beginning is on TV today.
The third Kingsman film is also a lot of fun and is even more crazy
While we first encountered the gentleman agents in Kingsman: The Secret Service and they were sent to the USA in The Golden Circle, we now finally learn more about the early days of probably the coolest secret service in the world.
This time Matthew Vaughn is once again in the director’s chair, but he is playing a different role. a whole lot more absurdwhen Rasputin mixes ballet with martial arts and the whole thing almost degenerates into a pure parody. What is not lost, however, is the wild dance of pure fun that unfolds during the good-humored action.
More wild action with a dash of absurdity and a lot of fun will hopefully be offered by the remake of an almost forgotten sci-fi blockbuster starring Arnold Schwarzenegger. A cult director will be at work in the near future.
