The director of the espionage thriller film 'Argylle,' starring Henry Cavill, Matthew Vaughn, has responded to the film's harsh criticism. Get all the details in the content below!

The film "Argylle," directed by Matthew Vaughn and starring Henry Cavill, Bryce Dallas Howard, and Sam Rockwell, premiered on February 2nd.

Upon its release, the film faced severe criticism from critics.

It received only 33 points out of 100 on Rotten Tomatoes and struggled at the box office, earning just $96 million against its $200 million budget. Despite attracting attention during its promotion with scenes featuring Henry Cavill and Dua Lipa, the film failed to meet expectations.

According to Independent, director Matthew Vaughn responded to the criticism in an interview with Empire.

Vaughn stated, 'We had fantastic test screenings. The premiere night was incredibly fun. It felt like going back to the Snatch days. Everything was very exciting. Okay, we didn't make a Citizen Kane-level film, but I thought Argylle was a feel-good and enjoyable movie.'

Vaughn, finding the critics overly aggressive, continued,

'I ask myself what I did to offend these people. The aggressive criticism surprised me. But there's no need to dwell on it! I'm considering making another film about Argylle. Nothing would make me happier than doing it again.'
