Everything Wrong With The King's Man in 22 Minutes or Less

The King's Man is another entry in the flashy action franchise and... yeah, it's okay. I was mostly counting the sins, though, I'll be honest.
Thursday: '80s adventure sins.
Remember, no movie is without sin. Which movie's sins should we count next?

Introducing Hitler like a MCU villian post-credits is the weirdest thing a movie did in 2021

[@RadekCrazy1]

I actually found it hilarious. If it was intentional parody of Marvel post credit scenes its golden. however if it was meant to be serious its fookin sad

[@pamoweiberezi5315]

@@RadekCrazy1 the kings men movies are based of comics so it would make sense

[@wolfrainexxx]

Kingsman is a comic series based on real life events; Hitler existed in Marvel, yet that's the extent of his life in the MCU. In Kingsman, he's equivalent in status to Thanos; historical villains are comic villains in Kingsman. Would've been better if he turned around with his tiny mustache, and said, "If you want something done right, you must do it yourself."

[@andrejors9501]

@@wolfrainexxx one thing i love about kingsman is that they're pretty accurate with historical facts.. Hitler doesn't have his iconic moustache at that time & he's still a little bit awkward.. Erik is actually the one who mentored Hitler in public speaking & how to "hypnotize" people with presence.. For me that scene is really good it made me think "this scene could actually happened in real life"

[@JeeVeeHaych]

I'm surprised he didn't take a sin off for the fight scene in No Man's Land, the build up to that was a really intense scene. And even though everyone loved Rasputin and wanted to see more of him, I kinda felt they made him too 'pervy' instead of 'weird'

[@Lukecash2]

Rasputin was a big pervert.

[@redsoxu571]

"Most people look at him with terror and with fear, but to Moscow chicks he was such a lovely dear...But he also was the kind of teacher women would desire...Russia's greatest love machine, it was a shame how he carried on...In all affairs of state he was the man to please, but he was real great when he had a girl to squeeze...No doubt this Rasputin had lots of hidden charms, though he was a brute they just fell into his arms." I mean, if we're being honest the legends of Rasputin's questionable behavior and tastes probably makes the all-time top ten list among historical figures. As with most who would make the list, these stories were very likely exaggerated, but true or exaggerated or false it's certainly in keeping to have him represented that way! Roll that up with a dash of Kingsmen absurdity, and...well, there you go. Haha.

I thoroughly object to sinning the events surrounding Franz Ferdinand's assassination. Reality was even more absurd. There were 7 assassins posted around Sarajevo, who had conspired to kill Ferdinand. All of them were absolutely inexperienced in basically every skill required for their task. They didn't really know how to shoot, how to handle their explosives, or even how to dose the cyanide capsules they carried with them to kill themselves. Between the 7 of them, they had four pistols and six bombs. The first assassin didn't throw his bomb because according to his own testimony, he didn't know which car Ferdinand was sitting in. Another didn't shoot because he "felt sorry for the Princess", a third didn't act because he was clearly not psychologically prepared. The only one who did throw his bomb had to ask a policeman for the right car first. The bomb was deflected, not by an umbrella as shown in the movie, but by Franz Ferdinand's own arm (!). He tried to kill himself with the cyanide, but the dosis was too weak to kill him - so he jumped into the nearby river from a bridge that was wasn't nearly high enough to kill him. Following his arrest, Princip was just about ready to call it a day and retired to a nearby deli for a coffee. It was there that the Archduke's car all of a sudden stopped in front of him after having taken a wrong turn. After firing two shots, Princip also tried to poison himself, but the cyanide again didn't work and he was arrested.

[@wolfrainexxx]

Either the driver was the core of the assassination plot, or God really wanted Franz Ferdinand dead.

One thing I'm surprised didn't get a sin off was the music in the Rasputin fight scene. The way the score changed back and forth between different composers depending on which side had the upper hand was absolutely brilliant and one of the best uses of a movie score I've seen in any movie. It was already a top tier fight scene but the music behind it, and accentuating it, really made it a perfect 10/10.

[@virgilhawkins5680]

This is the way.

[@kapiteingrasparkiet7574]

@@TheEternalGoth if be did sin it it would probably be because it's from another composer. If he used it to take off a sin then he would probably have to go into detail praising the music, which isn't what he's supposed to do with his channel. By the end of the day still waiting for CinemaWins to review it it's been a year and they totally should make a video on this.

[@bunk95]

You dont fight Rasputin. Slaves even kill the kids theyre around.

[@poducha]

Sin #68. Got it wrong. That IS indeed how poisons work. Mithridatism is a practice of ingesting small amounts of poison to build up immunity from it. Rasputin was also known to practice Mithridatism, although the results were unverified. Cyanide is also one of the most common poisoning agents, so it would be fair to say Rasputin would try to build up his immunity to it.

[@jimbass1664]

See; iocaine powder.

[@poducha]

@@jimbass1664 Precisely my point, except Iocane is a fictional poison and doesn't exist in the real world. However, there are other odourless, colourless, water soluble and tasteless compounds such as Thallium, Arsenic or Polonium-210. That last one would be more difficult to come by though.

@@shortstuff780 I get what they are tryin to do with the story; the first two were nice "typical tuesday AMC action flick." The third one seems like they are trying to set up a "kings-man universe" like harry potter, marvel, james bond, etc. That's why it feels weird and inconsistent.

[@shortstuff780]

@@tenton2000k I think the issue w the 3rd was: This movie was like 3 different movies mixed into 1. You have an spy thriller. A WWI gritty movie. And an family drama, mixed with an history story.

[@matthewoehler2472]

That feels like Kinsman movies in general, an average but fun movie surrounded by absolutely amazing set pieces

[@nathanevans4157]

When I watched this, I felt like I was watching two movies combined together. A slow burning historical war story of a father and son, and an action flick that happens to take place in the past. It bloated the run time and made the pacing feel weird. I feel like if they had just chosen to go one way or another it would have been a lot better than the actual result.

Completely agree. Was this a hardcore WW1 movie, or a fun spy action comedy? It somehow tried to be both but failed at each. Definitely the worst film in the Kingsman series to date, which is a shame, as the spy concepts and use of historical figures as charactures of themselves was actuall pretty entertaining (even if the history as shown is mostly innacurate).

[@imsomewhatcertain1024]

So, that Scottish soldier found out Conrad was pretending to be Archie Reid, and then he accuses him of being a German spy. Any logical soldier would’ve detained Conrad and take him to be interrogated to make sure he wasn’t a spy, but instead he immediately decided to bust a cap into Conrad’s head.

[@jmill1334]

Sure, but i'm not sure logic was exactly what was going through their heads at the time. The sheer horror and brutality of the WW1 trenches is likely enough for any man to overreact at a percieved enemy within their lines, especially if that percieved enemy potentially killed their old friend to steal his identity. We can sit here today and say "that's not what one would have done" but I think that the reality is nothing was "logical" about WW1 trench warfare and it took massive tolls on soldiers mental health. I mean, standing in a trench watching countless mates being sniped or mowed down by machine gun fire while bombs consistantly shell your location for hours on end is enough to draw irrational thought out of any man. They probably could have dirtied the guy up and made him appear somewhat shellshocked and it would have come across better, but I don't have an issue with the scene and actually thought it pretty smart and well done having just let out the breath of expectation for Conrad to die in that run to the trenches. Completely takes you by surprise.

[@ironcladnomad5639]

Whether or not the final twist with Conrad was good on the storytelling front, I think most of us can agree it was a legitimate shock.

[@cooldrop02]

I can personally agree that it was heart-wrenching. I really didn't want it to happen. But I feel like it was absolutely necessary in the end. They built them up to be a Mary Sue. And then they showed us no.

[@RitsusDarlingGirl]

Given that they said in the first movie that Kingsman was founded by noblity who lost their sons in the war, I was expecting it, but not quite that way. I thought he was going to be killed in the fighting and misidentified since he switched places. Possibly dumped in a mass grave or left for the crows.

Or how about a toast with asbestos topping every day to prepare against asbestos poisoning? Sometimes comment sections scare me.

[@seans857]

It is actually possible to build up an immunity to poisons. The first documented case of Mithridatism was by Mithridates the Great of Pontus (hence the name). Mithridates became one of the most formidable foes of the Roman Empire. When he was finally defeated, he attempted to poison himself but was unsuccessful due to his built up immunity.

I really enjoyed this film but especially the fight scene with Rasputin. The reason it was an elaborate plan was because the writers have taken inspiration from his real life death. He was poisoned, then shot, then shot and beaten and thrown in a freezing cold river. It’s almost like the Kingsman used his RL death as a cover up. I really recommend Googling his real life death

So yes the plot/events are a bit mushed compared to even the sequel, but the fight scenes, visuals, the score (when not being boring) like before is epic, the sfx- unique camera shots started in the first film - showcasing WWI in a new light and with gore . . . there was a TON to not only like, but LOVE in this film! It had a ton of moments that I genuanly said "Ok that was pretty good" or hell ok yes...the fight with Rasputin was . . . a bit pervy but frak was the whole thing a wild ride that said to hell with it and tried new shit . . . 20 sins removed - the rest are fare.

[@mirimarina6387]

the Scottish evil leader reveal was so dramatic I honestly thought it was merlin's great great grandfather or something, a funny twist that he became part of the organisation originated to fight his relative. I WAS 100% SURE. then it was the side guy, who we knew was shifty, and I wondered why it was such a big deal. I was so sure I missed something, that he was some big historical figure rewritten to be an evil Scottish guy. It was a pointless reveal. I think that was the one thing that ruined the film for me. I loved Ralph, Rasputin, Conrads death, all of it! there were two movies in one though, no lie

This series is supposed to be action comedies. This one lacked the comedy. Sure there were some little jokes here and there but not nearly as much silliness/charm as the first one.

[@bitters879]

[@felixkonig7273]

I have to say, i quite enjoyed this movie. The setting , the fight scenes (of course...) and that they tried to be very historical accurate (besides the actual kingsman and the bad organisation). On the other hand, like u said already, there should have been more kingsman stuff in it and how he actually established his private secret service . Hence its a prequel, i don't expect all this in the beginning, but maybe a bit earlier in the movie. Also the father son dynamic was a bit odd (and a bit unnecessary), but i rly liked the decision to have Conrad killed.

[@wmaconick]

If they tried to be very historical accurate, they failed miserably. I never seen a more botched representation of the events of WW1

[@BloodyFlowerFilms]

Just saw the movie finally and I’m honestly iffy on it. Rhys Ifans as Rasputin sold the movie for me and his fight sequence with the Overture was perfection. Even as I was watching it, I was thinking “there’s no way they can top this moment. Nothing will top it.” and I was right… then they killed Rasputin and that immediately set me off for the rest of the film. Why the fuck would you kill your best character? Seriously! It’s almost like they shot the film, edited it, and realized that Rasputin was the best fucking villain and should have been but couldn’t go back and reshoot because of COVID and just stuck with what they got and instead of a superior film with Ifans Rasputin as the real baddy, we got the inferior bullshit no one cares dude. Vaughn really screwed himself there. He had a PERFECT villain.

[@goodputin4324]

Rhys Ifans should have been Morton

[@jefthereaper]

The first half of the movie actually made me invested, though they should have dropped the whole killed wife stick and gone immediately with Conrad being introduced to their spy/rogue group the moment he came of age instead of beating around the bush. Would have made it more interesting. The second half, especially 14:18 just had me slamming my head against a wall. This man just dedicated his entire late life to working in the shadows and despises the whole war and bloodshed, and everyone around him is trying to push the idea that dying in the war is something honorable and smart to do, and he should man up and be more like his son. HIS SON IS DEAD, meanwhile Orlando achieved ten times what his son did by simply working in the shadows. None of their rubbish makes sense and Orlando was 100% in the right, and is now in a depression due to being 100% right but everyone else being too headstrong to listen!
