Thank you so much. That was the goal, and I feel like I still have a lot left to do with that specifically. The whole point is to make it more than reacting.
Sofia Boutella who plays Gazelle does not actually have prosthetic feet, those were CGI. initially the role was offered to a number of Paralympians who really had running-blade prosthetics but the shooting schedule would have interfered with their Olympic training, and they had to use a non-disabled actress instead.
They couldn't have found a single person who wasn't an Olympian? Are those blades trademarked by the Olynpics? Because a film star who could actually do martial arts would be a better fit anyway than someone who just runs.
@@billbill6094 A lot of people can't even afford prosthetics, they range from 3.5-9k depending on if you have to get a knee socket or not hence why a lot of paraplegics opt for wheelchairs
That church massacre was one of the best action scenes in that decade. If you want another uniquely shot action film, check out the movie UPGRADE. It's a great action scifi that actually gets pretty deep at the end. And I know, that's what she said. Lol
He saved them by covering the grenade and preventing shrapnel from going everywhere as well as suppressing the explosion radius. Frag grenades arent super big explosions in real life iirc
You're right. If someone lays on a frag, their body will take most of the kinetic energy. People around still might get injured somewhat, but it won't really kill.
yeah frags arent mainly "blast" grenades, the blast spreads the metal bits. jumping on c4 or something is a fireball type bomb wouldnt help, but hopping on a frag would get the metel bits mostly stuck on whoever is covering it. if he didnt take on for the team, the shrapnel could have bounced all over the room.
Yeah, jumping on a normal grenade will definitely mess you up more, but it is a solid plan for any grenade for saving bystanders. It significantly suppresses the blast and causes it to lose a lot of power. My dad is ex military and we practiced working through the fear so we would be able to do it if need be (my dad was super high ranked in a very sensitive field so we had to deal with multiple assaults and kidnapping attempts, even some attempted poisonings and such, so like this wasn't totally uncalledfor)
the lisp was sam jackson's decicion, because he had the same lisp when he was younger and wanted to show more of the adversity that he had overcome on his path to success or somthing like that.
I know it's not "original", but the church scene is my favorite scene in the whole movie. The long take that covers almost the entire scene was so incredible
Frfr watching it in the cinema for the first time in 2015 totally unexpected it was like wtf this the best fight scene in history maybe even still now 🔥
As cool as it is, technically it's not a long take. Every time a person or something covers the screen, there's a hidden cut. But it doesn't take away from how cool it is
I don’t see a lot of comments about it but I appreciate the time taken editing these reactions, you putting your head on characters, the hologram cheers at the table etc..unlike any old reaction on youtube..keep up the awesome work my man
In the original comic book, Professor Arnold was the main villain and had kidnapped actor Mark Hamill, which is why they cast Mark Hamill as Arnold as a little easter egg in the movie.
My mom (66), who doesn't like action, violence and blood in movies, LOVES Kingsmen. She laughed her butt off at the church scene. This is one of the very, very few movies she watches again when they're re-run on TV (including her favorite Disney and animated movies). Love your reaction, as always, happy new year!
Your reaction through the church scene was PRICELESS. 😂 This is one of my all times, and I'm very happy you've finally scene the glory, that is, Kingsman. Such a good fucking movie!
valentine explains why he has to make constant contact with the machine. He believes that it should take sacrifice for the user to kill all those people. He has to hold it constantly and it causes him pain while he’s using it.
At 4:10 when Mello said "I'm throwing them hands after that" you know he's serious and Billy would probably join in throwing hands too while laughing it up
6:26 it was a hand grenade dude, the explosion was muffled because Eggsy's dad jumped on it, if he hadn't the shrapnel would DEFINITELY have hit everyone in the room and at that range almost certainly killed them all, even in body armour
Second one is brilliant aswell but no.1 is one of the best films ever so that’s why you’ve heard negativity about the second one. Still really worth a watch tho! Stellar cast and amazing action scenes ofc
The editing in this reaction was insane! I love how you were added into the meeting as a hologram, that was so awesome. Love the editing and your reactions. Couldn’t wait to see your reaction to the church scene and it was well worth it. That scene is one of the best action scenes I have ever watched. It is a masterpiece 👏
The thing about frag grenades is that the explosion isn't that big, but the metal fragments from the grenade shell go pretty far pretty fast. The M67 frag grenade has a fatality radius of 5 meters, which definitely would've covered that room, and an injury radius of 15 meters.
This is one of those movies that I went in on with mediocre expectations, but was blown away. I thought it may be ok and I just wanted something to eat some time, but I didn't expect it to be this good. Yes it's over the top and a few parts are a little corny (in a fun way), but this movie just has a little bit of everything and the camera work is fantastic. I love how the camera is frantic and fast paced, but it also keys into something and stabilizes so you can get the "omg what the hell was that?" aspect...like in the church. It was definitely one of those movies that takes you by surprise in the best ways. The other movies aren't terrible either; I think they just have the stigma of not being as good as the original and to be fair it would be hard to top this movie.
24:50 I saw this movie in theaters. The theaters was a combination of dead silence, gasps, and laughs. It was one of the best moments I’ve had in theaters
This was the first video I've seen of yours and subscribed because this has been some of the best editing I've seen! Quality work, thx for putting in the time!
I watched the 2nd one first by mistake and loved it then watched the first one and loved it and seen both multiple times, not seen the prequal yet though.. awesome reaction as usual
Say what you want about the writing on that princess role, with all the clichés of male fantasy, but that delivery of the "I'll be right back" is worth it all.
I'll never understand what's so wrong with "male fantasy" in a movie aimed at a primarily male audience. Like there are no movies that cater to _female_ fantasy. (Twilight, anyone?)
@@JakkFrost1 There is nothing wrong if it is done right like in this movie. Because it is heavily tongue-in-cheek. But when it's done in a way that people can confuse it with realistic interactions, then it becomes a problem.
When Gazelle was doing her breakdancing attack; Mel: "Oh my God! I would be in awe Bro!" No, you would be in pieces...and in awe. I loved your reaction man. I was so impatient to see your reaction to the church scene, and it was pretty close to my inner monologue, because I was sitting slack-jawed during it, except for the, occasional giggle.
This is the first reaction video I'm seeing from you and I love your vibe. Really entertaining to watch. Love this movie, too. Very happy you liked it.
The second movie is great fun, but no matter what, what movie, what franchise, I'll always say watch it yourself if you have any interests, as we all have different tastes. The sequel has similarly some amazing fight scenes and humor. The third, Kings Man is sort of an origin story, so different characters, different setting, but still worth a watch imo
No disrespect but obvious you do not understand how grenades work. That can happen when you believe what movies show. This was actually quite accurate. The explosion is relatively small and the majority of the damage is done by shrapnel. If Eggsy's dad had not used his body to cover the grenade the radius that shrapnel covered would have severely, if not killed every man in that small room.
Happy New year Mello 🥂. Good to be back me I mean not you. Love this film a phenomenal cast Colin firth, Samuel L. Jackson and Michael Caine to name a few. Enjoy the ride . Until the next time 💜
Skydiving is great. One of the perks of working for the newspaper of a military base was I got to do a tandem skydive with the skydiving team out of a Blackhawk helicopter. I'm also scared of heights, too, but it was amazing.
I can't speak to whether or not Taron Egerton ("Eggsy") was ever offered the role of Wolverine. But, fun fact: the man who landed the Wolverine part, Hugh Jackman, landed the role of Egerton's skiing coach in the film "Eddie The Eagle", which I highly recommend.
This movie definitely set a high bar for the sequels. To be honest, the next movie after this isn't that bad, its pretty good if you ask me. Just not quite as high as this one. If this movie is an A+, I would say the second one is a B+, third one would be more of a C+
People have a habit of being stuck on the great things in one movie and not appreciating the things brought in later movies. The other ones are pretty good. Still have the fun action and gives you more to the story. I think they’re worth a watch for you to judge for yourself.
Mel, your reaction was so good. This really is a great movie. IMO, the 2nd one isn’t bad, but it’s not as good as this original. I think it’s worth a watch…and a reaction. Do it, bruv 😂
All of the names of the Kingsman come from the Knights of the round table under King Arthur. Merlin was a Mage. This reaction is Bangin BTW... the editing is off the wall, one of the best reaction videos I have seen.
You have elevated "reacting" with your editing. It's so funny and so well done
Thank you so much. That was the goal, and I feel like I still have a lot left to do with that specifically. The whole point is to make it more than reacting.
@@HelloMellowXVI that was some seriously impressive editing, dude. Putting yourself in the scene with the other holo-Kingsmen was impressive.
bet! I watch literally all of the reaction channels, and his editing is top tier.
In my opinion the second one isn’t bad at all. It’s not as good as the first but it still brings all the sane elements this one did. Great action
Nah the 2nd one was awful.. it undid all the elements of the first - The Kings Man was great imho tho
I think so too. It was still funny and fun to watch but the prequel wasn't good imo
Both stink
The sequel is almost as good as this one.. I love them both!

There is only one thing I love more than Mell's reactions and that is Mell's editing. So friggin' hilarious 😂
Right? LOL
Yeah, I love how he's been inserting himself into the scenes lately. So hilarious!
The sequels arent bad at all. Definitely worth watching.
I had a hard time keeping up with the prequel. It was too political for me to understand
@@TheMadhatter1313 Ikr? I enjoyed it but took me 3 watches and research to actually understand it lol
@@TheMadhatter1313 is the prequel that newest one? I've only seen the first two I think

its not bad its much worse. that's what you get for involving US wokeness

It's like the "Screen Rants'" "Real Trailer" guy says,"Kings...Man, this movie came out of nowhere!" or something to that effect.
The sequels aren't bad. Definitely worth watching. The first movie was just perfection.

Dope reaction mel. One of the greatest action movies of all time. The cinematography is gorgeous. The church fight scene is epic
23:04 *Spinning across the screen* "WHAT DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH CLIMATE CHANGE?!" fucking died bruh
The way you edit yourself into your reactions is actually so awesome!!!
5 min of the hardest editing you have ever done!!! FREEBIRD!!!

Second one is brilliant aswell but no.1 is one of the best films ever so that’s why you’ve heard negativity about the second one. Still really worth a watch tho! Stellar cast and amazing action scenes ofc
That Robbie rotten pull down at the end was so funny man 😂😂😂

I love this one. The second one is also fantastic. To be honest that one is my favorite one of this series.
This movie caught us ALL off guard. When that church scene first hit... the whole WORLD buzzed for 2 months.
funny you mentioned MIB in the training scene. both the mib comics and the kingsman comics were the same people
This movie was absolutely amazing. What a great take on action and comedy with some serious style points. 10/10 for sure
Ay, fire editing on this reaction video! 🔥😁
I had a blast the first time I saw this. Impeccable cast and funny as hell. Not for the squeamish 😂
"You got the Toilets out in the Open like that?"
Oh, Mell.
Just ask anyone who's been in the Military.
The second one is actually worth watching!
Seeing Mell get that excited was so fun. We all had the same reaction
