The last four films directed by Matthew Vaughn have received increasingly worse reviews.

The Future of Argylle

Argylle needs strong reviews to launch a successful franchise. If the film fails to impress critics and audiences, it could jeopardize the future of the franchise. However, if Argylle receives positive reviews, it has the potential to spawn at least one sequel and bring Matthew Vaughn back onto the successful action franchise train.
