Man from UNCLE

[Drunk Monk]

Very typical Ritchie flick - action, bromance, split screens, frantic fight scenes, hotties, prismatic lens flares, but all about the bromance really. Uncle was a classic buddy flick scenario out of the Cold War era. Gotta give him cred for giving the film Kodachrome hues, adding to its vintage feel. I dislike cavill, he's caricature handsome, but like Pine in the 1st jj Star Trek, towards the end I could see how Cavill was working Vaugh's Solo. In the end, it felt like a decent film tribute to the original series, not as epic as Star Trek but far superior to that abysmal Avengers film (steed & peel not marvel). Twas fun and nostalgic as I did enjoy the show back in the day.

This is the origins installment, primed for a sequel. And I'll watch that sequel, if it's convenient.
