Liam Gaughan is a writer at Collider with a passion for classic films and the work of Steven Spielberg and Martin Scorsese.
In the aftermath of the success of Guy Ritchie, many British filmmakers attempted to make similarly stylized genre films that combined action, comedy, and suspense in a unique way. While many of these imitators simply felt like they were retreading Ritchie’s work, Matthew Vaughn successfully developed an instantly recognizable style of over-the-top action cinema.
Far too long to be substantially rewatchable, Kingsman: The Golden Circle does benefit from its terrific supporting cast. Pedro Pascal’s charismatic performance adds a lot to the dynamic between Eggsy and Harry, and Julianne Moore does a great job chewing the scenery as the film’s eccentric villain. Nonetheless, Kingsman: The Golden Circle proves that the eclectic story is why the first film worked. Perhaps Vaughn would have benefited from putting the same care and attention into the sequel.
Unfortunately, Argylle more than overstays its welcome; at nearly 150 minutes long, the film packs in so many twists and turns that it is easy to lose sight of the relationships at its center. Argylle has all the great action that one would expect from a Vaughn film, including a few genuinely inventive uses of music timed to fight scenes.
Layer Cake showed that Vaughn was able to use non-linear storytelling to his advantage, as the film dissected the complex interactions between rival criminal gangs in a compelling way. It's such a notable departure from what is normally seen in the genre that it is worth rewatching multiple times just to take notice of the major differences. With an electrifying cast also including Tom Hardy and Sienna Miller, Layer Cake is a one-of-a-kind crime film.
