like fireworks like butterflies

The image of the butterfly is to the second part what fireworks are to the first part.

I saw a short comment saying: It's almost even depression.
Feel the same. I felt that I was secreting dopamine all the time, and the stress and suffocation of the days were swept away, and I was very happy. Of course, I will give a five-star rating just for the pan that flew out of the final fight. When I was a kid watching cartoons, I always hoped that a large-scale, also called a hand, and easy-going weapon like a pan could also appear in the Such a serious(?) fight.

In fact, the shortcomings of KSM2 are obvious. The British taste of the foundation is a lot lighter, and the contrast with the Statesman is very rough.
The imagining of intelligent machines is simply the most tedious part of the film.
Continuing to shout save the world is not a problem, I feel that the director is just too lazy to use his brain here.

But cult spots really come in waves. The gore of the meat grinder and the human burgers, the smudged erotica, etc. are all next to it. The shy Red Poppy is creepy and addicting, and Julianne Moore is more on the right track here than in The Hunger Games. Elton's presence is as strong as the colorful feathers on his body! And it is not only exciting, but also promotes the plot (is there really such a thing?)!
There is also Uncle Face's room, no, the Uncle Face in the room! Uncle with a blindfolded face is obediently and conscientiously an entomologist, in an artificial soft room. The white soft walls are neatly painted with images and explanations of butterflies. And at the moment when memories surged, countless butterflies took off. Really out of body.
For some reason, the butterfly scene here reminds me of the theatrical version of Heaven's Gate from Cowboy Star. Light, Ascension, and Immersion.

The director continued to generously distribute bento to the protagonist. A major feature of KSM is that it dares to let people die, and if they die, they will die, and they don't talk much. (The emotional part of Merlin's death is actually quite jumping off the line.)
This indifference is linked to the fragility, meaninglessness, and no bargaining capital of life. Since the living have not yet withered, they continue to move forward, pursuing a little bit of good looks and a little bit of entertainment, like fireworks and butterflies.

Kingsman: The Golden Circle quotes

  • [Charlie enters Poppy's Theater, wearing landmine equipment]

    Poppy: You're late. Why are you still wearing that?

    Charlie: Until you get rid of the perimeter landmines, I'll keep wearing the suit, thank you very much.

    Poppy: Scaredy-cat. Shut up and sit down. Let's go!

    [Poppy turns on the stage lights, revealing Elton John]

    Charlie: 'Crocodile Rock', please.

    Elton John: Fuck you!

    [Poppy zaps Elton with the collar around his neck]

    Poppy: Hey, hey, Elton. Language. Okay, well, as fabulous as your catalogue is, I think I want to hear some Gershwin.

    [Elton sighs and plays the piano]

    Charlie: I still can't believe you got away with kidnapping Elton John.

    Poppy: I know! But with Valentine abducting those celebrities, it seemed silly not to take advantage of the confusion.

    Charlie: Shit! Has Elton got the blue rash?

    Poppy: Lights.

    Poppy: Hey, Elton, have you been a bad boy again?

    [Elton notices the blue rash on his hands]

    Elton John: What is it?

    Poppy: It's proof that my plan is gonna work. It's also the first sign of a slow and horrible death. Don't worry, I can fix it. Tell me who you parties with.

    Elton John: [sighs] It was Angel.

    Poppy: Huh, not very angelic. Gonna have to clip his wings.
