When you revisit the first level after beating the game

Your honor, Free Bird was playing when he murdered those people.

Unlike other fight scenes, I really like the detail of Harry reloading his gun instead of shooting endless ammo.

What I love about this scene is that we see how everyone fights in a wild, violent way, without thinking while Kingsman fights in a much more tactical way based on his experience, thinking about every shot and movement but with a small level of extreme savagery. especially in the final part.

Let's be honest: the weak point of this fight is, that we only see like 3 guns in an american church with 100 people and one belongs to a Kingsman.

How a school fight looks: stupid How a school fight feels:

I love how at the beginning he was just going to leave without killing everyone, but when the frequency goes out it affects him and soon leads to the best action sequence ever put to film.

This is my favourite fight scene of all time for the simple fact that it has nothing to do with the trope of luck, or superpowers, or anything like that. Harry survived due to his brilliant skill, quick thinking, and agility. He barely broke a sweat and he did it himself. This is a fight scene I believe every action movie director should watch at least once. Effort is all it takes, and you can tell so much love and affection went into all 3 Kingsman films (so far).

When you're having a nightmare but you remembered that you're lucid dreaming

Bro he was so OP and then they nerfed him in the second movie

Fun fact: 79 people were in the church..Harry took out 59 of them by himself.

If you notice, at 3:18, when Harry is confused and deafened by the explosion of the grenade, you can see two people in the background, a guy in yellow and a guy in blue, and if you could see correctly, we can see they are also deafened by the explosion putting their hands over their ears as they are slightly stunned and confused for a few seconds before the signal picks up again. Small detail...

The most unsettling part about this is that Harry doesn't become a maniac, he's not fighting like a berserker with no thought for his own safety and survival, only the death of his opponents; he's using his training to it's fullest. He doesn't waste shots, he makes the effort to finish off people who are down but not out, he uses all the gadgets he has competently, and he takes steps to give himself the best chance of living, dodging attacks, using others as shielding, etc. It's one thing to turn a room into mindless killers, but this is something else entirely.

When teacher goes out for a moment

The perfect scene for this song. A battle so large, where the winner is only the survivor. Pure chaos in every corner of the frame, minimal cuts, only pure bloodshed. The perfect scene to capsulate what it’s like listening to Free Bird.

Probably the best 3 minute violent action scene in a movie, ever. The main reason Kingsman was a 10-star worthy movie. Legendary.

Writers: so how violent do you want this scene to be Producer: Yes.

This is so unrealistic. An American Church, and only one guy has a gun? Come on now.

I love that he went out of his way to kill the people who weren't even fighting him

Always liked this scene not just for the choreography, but for how the cuts are so seemless that it seems like it was all done in one take.

I can only imagine what the paramedics reaction would be. “What the hell happened here”

THE FACT SHE INSTANTLY BELIEVED HIM IS THE BEST

Subtle detail that's easily missed: when Harry fires the first shot, he doesn't actually fire the pistol. The blast comes from the large tube underneath the barrel, a single-shot underbarrel shotgun. Totally excessive, and from a tactical standpoint kind of a waste of the feature, but he was just so bloodthirsty from the signal and she was just so awful that instead of just putting a bullet in her brain he _blew her damnhead off._

I’ve always liked the subtle detail when the grenade goes off at 3:17, where Harry is briefly deafened by the explosion and comes to his senses because he can’t hear the signal. He’s confused at what’s going on around him before it takes over again.

Fuck i forgot about this. This scene so perfectly shows how well trained he really was.

the choregraphy was so geniusly done this movie is a masterpiece

This will forever be and still is one of the greatest action scenes of all time

People against 5G: write that down write that down!

This must be where John Wick learned his moves.

This scene has 50% violence 50% kingsman 100% FREEBIRD YEAAHHH

I would easily put this in the "Top 10 of Greatest Cinematic Actions Scenes of all Time". The editing, chorography, music, it's all perfect.

You know one thing I don't think anyone has pointed out is the colours, everyone is wearing some form of beige or a muted colour, but Harry's Suit is sharp, its darker colour stands out, meaning that you instinctively look towards him, and all the other people blend together just due to sheer colour. Very smart play by either the costume department or the director.

Probably 1 of the best fight scenes in the decade, which doesnt involve superpowers just pure skill, and also very..brutal

Lets not gloss over how brilliant that opening retort from Harry is. Superb.

*almost** not. a single. fucking. cut. Almost the entire fight (and i said almost because i don't know if they show the reactions of the two characters watching this) its literally, never said it better, done in one shot. Im not saying the entire choreography was done at first try, im saying from the way it looks: The madlads did a millions shots to catch the entire scene without change to any other camera, angle or cutted frame... i don't really know if i explained myself. This is, arguably, a freaking piece of violent art.

How old were you when you realized that when the explosion deafened him for a moment at 3:18 , he seemed confused and horrified at what was happening because the signal was no longer controlling him. The bloolust smile on his face being wiped away, him looking around as his ears ring, but as soon as it fades, he's already looking for his next victim.

2:27 Depending on how hard he was punched, this guy probably just received a concussion and survived this whole debacle. Props to the random guy for surviving.

This is hands down the best use of Free Bird in any piece of media

Fun Fact: The reason they started fighting wasn't because of a mind control chip, it was because free bird came on

He's so smooth, that suit is the source of his power.

3:08 fascinating how they quickly transitioned the body to a rag doll so the cracking of the spine is depicted perfectly

i love this scene both because of the obviously cool hyper violence but also because it shows you what someone with a kingsman's training and equipment can do if they just went absolutely POSTAL in most spy movies, you dont realize how truly dangerous the special forces are here? you see first hand what a trained and equipped kingsman can do to a room of people if they simply had the objective:"KILL EVERYONE" on their mind.

Funny enough, I watched this movie around release but when I first heard free bird as a standalone song I thought it would go perfect with this scene. So here I am 3am trying to see if anyone edited the song into the movie not realizing THAT THE MOVIE ALREADY USED IT, a fucking legendary scene

Kingsman and john wick both surprised me.Such great flicks with kickass fight scenes.

This has to be one of, if not the best fight scenes ever choreographed. Lynyrd Skynyrd's 'Free Bird' is perfectly timed to the many gun shots, punches and other combat maneuverers throughout the fight. The editing of the song is spot on when it cuts in and out from the action ( e.g: When Valentine is watching out the window of the house and the drums begin to beat louder and louder until it cuts back into the church for one last time ). What a masterpiece.

"Oh, God. The world is a total chaos. It's like a Battle Royale game." God in the house: "Oh, lad. Same here, "

This is by far the best use of the song free bird 😂😂 kingsman nailed the soundtrack making the scene x10 more epic even before free bird was a famous meme

The crazy thing is, and someone has probably noticed it before me, is that for a moment after the lighter grenade explodes and Harry temporarily loses his hearing, he seems to gather himself. This is probably because he can't hear, or the ringing is louder than the frequency driving him murder happy, and then when his hearing comes back he goes right back to being a murder happy kingsman

1:09~When you get so angry at a video game, that you set the difficulty to easy.

He fires 11 bullets on the first mag and 10 on the second one, meaning he had one on the chamber before he loaded the first mag

"Where you going?" "Oh I'm just going to the bathroom." "Oh okay."

this scene never gets old

The most unrealistic aspect of this movie is that we're in an American church at not one person brought an AR-15

3:01 this was not a kill, this was a FATALITY

1:58 he tossed him like a ragdoll 😂

The choreography for this is just divine

1:08 how to solve a minor disagreement

Not gonna lie, when he throws the guy with the blue sweater into the church stand (whatever it’s called) and his neck literally goes inwards, that makes me cringe every time lmao

There are so many great things about this scene, but my favorite bit has got to be at 2:22, where he goes back to the man he stabbed in the eye like "hold up, need my knife back."

The most unrealistic thing about this scene is how few people actually brought guns to church

When the teacher said "there's only one winner"

I love how she believed everything he told her. Actually seems realistic for these types of idiots.

in my opinion the signal thing genuinely just made you hear Freebird so you instinctively do freebird levels of violence

Really funny. Great. LOL! So well choreographed. Lots of work to do this. Love the music too. Fitting. LOL.

1:00 I LOVE this part, the church organs and the bepping sound that is louder and louder feels so amazing and well combined and this poor lady in the back screaming at Harry. True masterpiece

The woman at the start is a karen definetly Edit: wow thanks for the likes and comments

To be honest, this is one of those parts that I can watch over and over again and not get sick and tired of it.

I love this scene soo much, but i gotta say thay without a doubt my favorite bit is when he's about to leave an he says all that shit to the lady next to him. So outta pocket but i fuckin love it 😂😂

Plot Twist: The song Freebird makes you aggro.

There are many really good fight scenes in movie history, but this is the absolute best of them all IMO.. As I've come to understand it this scene was the crucial point in giving Colin Firth the role; he had to buff up a little and get into shape in about 6 months or so to actually be able to pull it off. If he physically couldn't make it he wouldn't have gotten the role, but he said 'yes' and then it was a hit and miss thing. And then he delivered majestically, taking it beyond anything previously made. This gentle and polite, highly sympathetic gentleman showed us what a stone cold killing machine looks like. Respect for this man's acting prowess.

This is you imagining yourself saving your entire school from a group of raiding terrorists

I was watching this film with my parents and my mum said before the fight “prepare for the most awesome fight scene you will ever see”. I said ok

amazingly the actor is not even an action guy yet he pulls it off to perfection.

His "So Hail Satan" seeped with so much sarcasm I love it!!!

We need more fight scene like this one in any film.

the way they disguise the cuts is totally genius.

First time seeing this scene, and I was stoked that counting the bullets actually let me preempt him at 1:50. I'm just a sucker for directors that actually take ammo count into consideration.

i could watch this scene over and over and never get bored

3:20 after the explosion, you can briefly see him come to his senses and he realises what is happening.

when everyone makes fun of your adult sized lightning mcqueen crocs

An agent bringing a gun everywhere is fine but the fact that some guy actually brought an axe and other primary weapons at a church is something else.

*What happened next was the thing that shocked me!* 🤯

one of the best action scenes i've seen in my life

3:06 I forgot Harry straight up does the Shady Sands Shuffle with a guy in this movie

Can we just take a moment to acknowledge the response at 0:28 - 0:40 ? That was the definition of savage.

2:45 never fails to get a laugh out of me 😂

i remember watching this movie with my family when i was 11, me and my dad would laugh as this scene popped on, while my mom and my sister were unable to even glance at it 🤣🤣🤣

Best fight seen I've ever watched. Huge, complex, violent, awesome music, and everyone there deserves what's coming to them.

LOVE the edit at the end “THAT WAS FUCKING SPECTACULAR”

"So hail Satan, and have a lovely afternoon madam" That's one of the best lines ever right there!

The main character of the game during the passage of the plot: there are too many enemies, it's worth slipping unnoticed. The main character, while exploring the open world:

This is the most badass fight I've ever seen

I remember when I first saw this in theatres. Talk about unexpected. I was laughing the whole time just because of how shocking the whole thing was.

If John Wick is a Sherlock, Harry Hart is a Mycroft.

As someone who grew up picked on and abused by these types of people (some in my own family), this scene is so cathartic to watch.

OMG!!! So this is what I'm missing by not going to church... well, I'm so gonna be there this Sunday!

One of the greatest fight scenes ever. Context, viscera, directing and stuntwork. Everything came together here. Now, if only Matthew Vaughn had stuck to directing Kingsman 2 instead of writing it. The story and writing were awful, but the fight scenes were still outstanding.

Many people said that this fight being alone had made this Kingsman movie franchise famous, honestly in my opinion the music they choose for this fight scene goes really well with it, of course this is just a movie but if everybody wasn't killing each other, but instead attacking the agent directly all at once I think they would have succeeded.

One of the most iconic action scenes in film of the decade and you can't tell me otherwise.

"But your honor, Free Bird was playing!"
