The story
Kingsman: The Secret Service introduced the world to Kingsman - an independent, international intelligence agency operating at the highest level of discretion, whose ultimate goal is to keep the world safe.
In Kingsman: The Golden Circle, our heroes face a new challenge when their headquarters are destroyed and the world is held hostage by a new eccentric villain. Their journey leads them to the discovery of an allied spy organization in the US called Statesman, dating back to the day they were both founded. In a new adventure that tests their agents’ strength and wits to the limit, these two elite secret organizations band together to defeat a ruthless common enemy, in order to save the world, something that’s becoming a bit of a habit for Eggsy…

The Action
Kingsman: The Secret Service shocked audiences with its graphic violence combined with great action sequences. The creative team behind it have returned for the sequel and we can only expect the same out of this film too. Director Matthew Vaughn said:
"There’s an opportunity with Kingsman 2 to make it bigger and bolder and funnier and crazier…The church sequence in the first movie, everyone wants something like that, but we’ve got action sequences which are just as original but different."
