Not seeing a lot of discussion on this one despite being a Guy Ritchie film with a pretty good cast and an interesting storyline that opens next week.

I have a friend who caught a screening of it in LA the other night, and he said it was very good. We should have reviews starting to trickle in the next couple of days, but I expect the typical in-your-face entertainment of a Ritchie film. Something tells me this will likely be the forgotten gem of the summer.

Anyone else excited to see it?

Previews make think of a similar style to Kingsman...that's a very good thing and has me excited.

The only thing that concerns me is that the trailer I saw seemed wildly convoluted and left me feeling very confused. Then again, I don't know anything about the source material, so maybe that's why. I would probably be willing to see it though just for it being Guy Ritchie and having exotic locations and spy action. I'm a sucker for spy movies.

I had no idea this movie was coming out so soon until a few days ago. The preview looked kind of interesting but if they are giving a known property such little advertising you have to wonder just how much faith they have in it.

The title kinda turns me off, tbh. Yeah I know it's based off an old show and comic.

The title is just horrible and Armie Hammer's russian accent is an abomination.

ETA: The chicks looked hot though.

This. I've been getting them confused for months, even though I saw Kingsman when it came out.

Just hoping the movie is nowhere nearly as cheesy as the series was. At the time, many (including myself) watched it. Looking back, it is hard to comprehend how and why we really watched that crap. Then again, in the mid 60's, TV options were very limited.
