I was absolutely thrilled when the first Kingsman came out. It had action, suspense, awesome humour and super fun to watch. Hence naturally I was super excited to watch the sequel, the golden circle. And guess what, it lived upto my expectations. It had the right amount of humour I was looking forward to.
Like any Bond movie, the first scene itself is full of energy (don’t be late). While the Kingsman agency falls pray to Ms.Poppy, they collaborate with another secret service agency, Statesman (Like Kingsman were into tailoring, Statesman was into Alcohol). Funniest part was the names of the agents there, GingerAle, Tequila and Whiskey!
The action sequences are fun to watch and enough thought has gone behind keeping fight sequences funny enough still impactful. Another movie that I love watching (has similar set up) repeatedly is ‘Man from Uncle’. If you have not seen it yet do it now, its a must!
Watch out for Elton John, he is hilarious. Never thought singers would be actual part of the movie script, when I spotted him first I thought he will be doing a short guest appearance for a scene, but looks like he actually has a role to play, and he nailed it!
I would highly recommend you go watch Kingsman and Newton this week.
