Huh. I’m Actually Kinda Liking the Man From UNCLE Trailer

It looks like the sort of movie that Kingsman: the Secret Service was only pretending to be (but more on that later). Henry Cavill and Armie Hammer have decent enough fake accents, and it doesn’t look like they’re taking things too far over the top of what the original series did (admittedly, that’s a pretty high top).
Guy Ritchie was never a great fit to do Sherlock Holmes, but campy ’60s-style action seems right in his wheelhouse. Consider this the first time in years I’ve been interested in one of his films.
