After their encounter with the notorious Richmond Valentine, the Kingsman secret service is targeted by a psychotic drug cartel which calls itself the Golden Circle. After their headquarters get blown up, they have to seek help of their counterparts in the US called the Statesman secret service. What is not to like about Savile Row suited men, high octane action and some upper class British humour. But in spite of all those and an addition to the cast in the form of Jeff Bridges, Channing Tatum, Halle Berry, Julianne Moore and Pedro Pascal with some corny humour thrown in by Elton John, this sequel is rather disappointing. The story line is stereotypical of the first part and even the return of Colin Firth's character doesn't salvage it. The savage touch of Valentine and his blade wielding assistant is also sorely missed. Sadly, this movie suffers from the "Sequel Curse". Watch it only if you have nothing more productive to do.
