If you enjoyed "Argylle", here are some other movies you might enjoy:
1. "Gunpowder Milkshake" - directed and written by Navot Papushado and Ehud Lavski, starring Karen Gillian, Lena Headey, Angela Bassett and so many other amazing female actresses, it's an insane movie, full of unexpected twists. I swear, no matter what you expect will happen, it never actually does happen. I love it.
The movie follows Sam, a bounty hunter for a company that practically raised her after her mom's disappearance, who receives a seemingly ordinary assassination mission, but her alliances are questioned once an 8-year-old girl is found to be in the middle of everything.
2. "American Ultra" - directed by Nima Nourizadeh and starring Jesse Eisenberg, Kristen Stewart and Topher Grace, this one's also surprising.
The movie follows Mike Howell, an anxious, stoner, convenience store clerck, who plans on proposing to his longtime girlfriend, when he comes across two tough-guys tempering with his car, a dormant, primal instinct he wasn't aware of, takes over him and he manages to over take them with ease.
3. "The Art of Self-Defense" - written and directed by Riley Stearns, starring Jesse Eisenberg and Imogen Poots.
The movie follows Casey, an awkward accountant who's brutally attacked by a motorcycle gang. In order to protect himself, he goes out to buy himself a gun, when a stumbles upon a dojo where he takes a trial class and eventually decides to forget about the firearm and instead learn Karate for self-defense.
4. "Dual" - also written and directed by Riley Stearns, starring Karen Gillian, Beulah Koale, Theo James and Aaron Paul, this might be the heaviest movie of the bunch. It's really sad and confusing, but it's also really funny and Aaron Paul absolutely gives his all in his performance, he's the absolute best thing in this movie.
The movie takes place in the near future and follows Sarah, a depressed alcoholic, who's disconnected from her mother and in a lackluster relationship with her boyfreind. One day, Sarah wakes up to a pool of blood on her pillow and when she goes to the doctor, she's told she'll certainly die soon. She's given the option to protect her dearest from the pain of her loss, by cloning herself. The clone will live with the original Sarah until her untimely demise, and learn her every move and get to know her personality so that she could become a perfect copy.
Of course, you should also watch the rest of Matthew Vaughn's films, such as "Stardust", "Kick-Ass" and "Kingsman".

I put together a list of my fave movies so feel free to judge me
1. American Psycho
I think it's a funny, clever, and way ahead of its time movie that has a very clear stance that people just. Somehow miss. It's such raw satire that it makes every minute enjoyable, also Christian Bale does Patrick so perfectly. I'm LITERALLY him
2. Everything Everywhere All At Once
A movie that perfectly balances deep, meaningful themes and humor, making it such amazing rewatch material bc of the level of detail and foreshadowing in every frame. It made me cry and laugh and the themes of human failure is amazing
3. Wristcutters: A Love Story
While I don't think it's a GOOD movie, I think it is entertaining, heartfelt, and relatable. It perfectly represents how mentally ill people often feel about themselves and the world around them, and how life doesn't need a meaning or a miracle.
4. American Ultra
THE FIGHT SCENES??? THE HUMOR??? ALL THE ACTION AND ART DIRECTION AND JESSE EISENBURG????? IM COLLAPSED I LOVE THIS MOVIE SM
5. Hot Fuzz
I fucking love all the Simon Pegg movies but this one especially. The attention to detail, tone, humor, character development, just EVERYTHING makes it an amazing movie to watch 100000 times over

rewatching renfield and realizing some of what i love about it is also some of what i loved about american ultra... an absurd comedy with balls out action where a sopping wet dishrag of a man suddenly breaks out into total badassery, before going back to being a sopping wet dishrag
