One of the movie’s most notable flaws is its need to introduce new characters, who it then fails to give the proper screen-time they deserve. For one, a whole new spy organization called Statesman is brought into the mix, but none of the characters-apart from a standout performance by Pedro Pascal, who plays Agent Whiskey-feel anywhere as well-realized as the Kingsmen agents, so why even have them in the movie at all?Ĭhanning Tatum and Jeff Bridges play Statesman agents and are billed as leads in the movie, yet they barely have enough collective screen time to be considered cameos.

For lack of better words, “Kingsman: The Golden Circle” is fun, and the two hours and twenty-one minutes I sat watching the film flew by with non-stop action and hilariously entertaining moments.Ī common trope in sequels, specifically those in the action-movie genre, is to simply make everything bigger, ignoring the fact that audiences typically demand a sequel because of an attachment or connection with the characters in the original.
