Kingsman: The Golden Circle - 10 Early Reactions You Need To Hear

"Every crass or tone-deaf moment – including a sexual encounter between Eggsy and a socialite, played by Poppy Delevingne, that at best feels entirely misjudged and at worst a complete betrayal of Eggsy’s cheeky but ultimately quite sweet character – is matched by a wonderfully droll one-liner or nugget of razor-sharp satire." -The Guardian

The Secret Service could be forgiven for its frequent descents into crass and brash territory, because these sequences were offset against wit, charm and characterisation. From the sound of things, its sequel drops into the same pitfalls, but also does its best to atone for that.

For instance, that needlessly crude anal sex gag at the end of the original Kingsman? Expect more of this, though a number of reviewers found these moments forgivable due to the quality of the writing in other scenes.

In short, The Golden Circle can be just as cheeky, juvenile and crass as its predecessor, but just about gets away with - kind of like Eggsy did throughgout his secret agent training.
