C'mon folks, lets be honest here....It's not the 'best' movie ever seen....but it's not dreadful......In fact it's really not too bad.....Ok, it's not One flew over the Cuckoos Nest or Citizen Kane and it's never going to win an Oscar, but it's a very good representation of a comic book story....
If you enjoyed the first movie, and liked the style & content....you're not going to be too disappointed with this one......It doesn't follow the ( Kick Ass 2 ) comic book exactly, but it's fairly close, and for a fun hour and a half watch time, it's got a lot of what you want in a comic book movie.....Fun, graphic violence, a bit of humour, good special effects / stunts....all in all most enjoyable.....
It's spared the more excessive parts of the comic book....ie....No rape of Daves' girlfriend ( thankfully ) and the killing of Stars and Stripes dog, and murder of schoolkids, but other than that it's pretty much the same story arc as the comic.....
Chloe Moritz is wonderful as Hit Girl, trying to balance what she wants, with being a 'normal' schoolgirl and Kick Ass is also well acted by Aaron Johnson...OK, some of it is a bit 'trite' but FFS it's a comic book movie adaptation and for that it's really well done...And Mother Russia is one of the scariest movie villainesses I've seen for a long time....
For maximum enjoyment ( and I loved it ).....just leave the 'thinking part' of your brain at home and just soak up the fun and enjoy......Do this and I'm sure you'll enjoy it !!
Cheers
