Malawski's Movie Mania

  A similar twist to James Bond. Kingsman is a  raunchy-Action comedy flick. Very exciting. The acting is somewhat cheesy. Colin Firth does a nice job at presenting as a mentor for the films protagonist. And Samuel L. Jackson like always, does an exceptional job at his portrayal of the films villain. Overall, Kingsman is an awesome action film.  Starring: Colin Firth and Samuel L. Jackson Director: Matthew Vaughn Runtime: 2 Hours & 9 minutes  MPAA Rating: R Synopsis:  Based upon the acclaimed comic book and directed by Matthew Vaughn, Kingsman: The Secret Service tells the story of a super-secret spy organization that recruits an unrefined but promising street kid into the agency's ultra-competitive training program just as a global threat emerges from a twisted tech genius.

  Based on the real life story of a girl would become a multi-million dollar selling inventor. "Joy" tells the story behind how it all started. Stars Jennifer Lawrence as the determined inventor Joy Mangano. The film tackles just how difficult Joy's struggles were to kickstart such a successful business dynasty. With the help and guidance of those closest to her she can do anything. Amid some bumps in the road, financially and personally like getting divorced and filing for bankruptcy, Joy overcomes these seemingly impossible struggles.      Jennifer Lawrence renuites with director David O. Russell for the third time. And Bradley Cooper for the fourth time. Jennifer Lawrence and Bradley Cooper are a dream-team in this inspirational motion picture.     O. Russell did an okay job at trying to interpret Joy Mangano's story. By stating the fact, the film is only biased. Just facts only approached. But Lawrence's performance is a job well done. Highly prais...
