8/10
Beautifully shot action sprinkled with some disappointments
21 September 2017
First of all, if you like going to the movies with reviews on your mind.. please read them instead of just taking the score into mind.

The action is amazing, original, well-shot and thrilling! It gives you the same adrenaline kick as in the first film. I will warn you though.. there is no scene that is on par with the church scenes. don't expect a 4 minute slaughter of another church, because it simply isn't there! It is asking a lot though from this franchise, so i didn't mind. 10/10 for the action.

Characters.. Well this is hard. Eggsy is great. Agent Whiskey is so good in this film. He caries like 3 of the best action scenes. He was SO American. Poppy a.k.a. julian moore's character fell like she overdid it. Channing tatum's character was barely in it, which was disappointing because he had an awesome action-setup and then he vanished. I can't talk about the rest of the characters, but agent whiskey, along with halle berry's character, eggsy and of course.. the OG galahad were great. Some characters got rid off and it didn't have to. 8/10

Cinematography: in times to cgi-ish, but overall fantastic. 9/10

Story: The story itself is great. the screenplay however disappointed me. Moments where i needed to feel it weren't there. The story in the first one is about eggsy. this one is as well, but i needed more emotional moments to really adore him again. we did something else though that was very endearing. I liked the villain's motivation... 7/10

All in all, it's such a fun time at the theaters. as we know critics don't like fun, but we action-junkies, movie-lovers and vaugn-admireres enjoy it all! do see it in the theaters!!! 8/10. If you don't care about character development, its a 10/10
