Kingsman: The worthy sequel?

Yesterday, I finally got the chance to see Kingsman: the golden circle. It is what a summer flick should be! Filled with explosion and fight scenes, the sequel even though lacks the surprise of the first one is a deserving one!

The movie begins with Egsy encountering an old friend Charlie. Who is now a terminator and action commencing from the word go! The fight scene in the Taxi was a little jarring and hard to keep up with, but it was beautiful. The Golden Circle makes no sense, yet it is fun. The plot is dead simple. Poppy played underwhelmingly by Juliana Moore runs a drug monopoly and wants to legalize drugs, hence she poisons all the drug addicts and holds them hostage until her demands are met. Our leads must stop her to save the world.

The start of the movie was shaky, Poppy wipes the Kingsman and in the process, kills of Roxie, the friend-zoned girl, and with her goes away my expectations of seeing a girl kicking ass in the Kingsman movie. Harry is also brought back to life, which I did not at all liked. It was done due to fan demand and it was visible. The reason or the process was half-baked and Harry was underutilized throughout the whole movie! I also did not like the new characters, Channing Tatum made a guest appearance at best, Halle Berry was there for no reason! Pedro Pascal was the only new character which had a role to play and he played it well. Another gripe I had with the movie is that Egsy's mother and sister seemed to be wiped out of existence!

Now that the shortcomings are out of the way, let's talk about the good stuff, I loved the style and flair of the movie. I liked that Egsy did not leave Princess T and this movie expands on that arc. I found the dinner scene with Tilde's parents funny, the mechanical hand of Charlie was also, good. Oh, and Elton John was kickass. The mechanical dogs were also cool. Channing Tatum's entry was lit! And the Lasso was a sight to behold!

With all its shortcomings Golden Circle is no perfect movie. What it is, is an entertainer. It is well worth your money and deserves a stream at the least!

Flagships no longer required?

The last time I used a flagship phone, was way back in 2013 and it was the Galaxy S4. The Exynos variant to be exact, back in 2013 Exynos was not cool. It was miles behind its Snapdragon counterpart and it was visible. My experience with the S4 was horrible. So horrible, that in fact, I haven't had the courage to purchase another Flagship since then on. After that, I switched boat and jumped to the WindowsPhone clad. My first taste of WindowsPhone was from a Lumia 520. The cheapest WindowsPhone! But, the performance at times was better than my less than a year old flagship Galaxy. WindowsPhone was fluid even on extreme budget hardware. Later on, I upgraded to a Lumia 730, which to date I adore. It is for me the best phone ever! The only place where it lacked would be the storage. Then I jumped shipped again to Android and am now using a Redmi 4x. So the point behind me going through my phone purchasing history is to show, that you do not need to break the bank or sel...
