Kick-Ass

Postby GRINCH » Mon Aug 09, 2010 8:06 pm

Inspired by his love of comic books, high school student Dave Lizewski (Aaron Johnson) decides to transform himself into a masked crime fighter -- a decision that eventually thrusts the teenager into Internet stardom. Soon, Dave's antics inspire a wave of would-be heroes to don costumes and live out their superhero fantasies. Nicolas Cage, Christopher Mintz-Plasse and Chloe Moretz also star in this comic book adaptation from director Matthew Vaughn.


I like this one... It was funny, had some action and most of all superheros. It's about a regular joe wanting to be a superhero. You will laugh with this one, I give it an 8 out of 10.

That's a scary thought. Can't say I ever did want to be a superhero. The movie had all the parts it just wasn't put together as well as could have been. The action was good but too short. There were too many long slow bits. It's like they couldn't decide if they were making an action movie or a character piece. The climax of the movie was also a bit disappointing. It really wasn't any better then the rest of the movie and it felt like a bunch of stuff I'd already seen in other movies. Needed more originality in the fighting.
