Kingsman 2 - From Bremont to Tag Heuer

Post by matt.wu » Sat Sep 23, 2017 11:10 am

Just watched this one on a random free night with the wife last night. Surprised to see Tag Heuer and the smart watches (and a couple Monacos) featured so prominently in the movie.

It was fun to see Bremont in the first. I wonder if the switch in the sequel is a result of disinterest (maybe they didn't see any positive results from the first investment), or if they just got outbid/out-priced this time around.

Upgrade, or lateral? Hard to call. In any case, two guys with a story about a crashed airplane and VC cash, never stood a chance against the shameless marketing talent of The Biver.

Loved the first one. Is this one as good?

Over the top....silly....almost bad....and I liked it. I think the cameos and intentional campiness save it from being bad.

We had a fun time.

This one was enjoyable in a similar way. It's sort of a slapstick take on Bond. This one introduces an American caricature as well.

Fun movie.

We asked Pearson and Nick about it last night and for the life of me I cannot remember what he said.

I suspect a few adult beverages were consumed...

Nice. I wish I could've made it out to one of the Bremont tour events.
