Kick-Ass

☞ Trailer

I read the comic book before the movie just to get a feel of it even though I did want to see Kick-Ass in theatres, that didn't happen so I never got around to watching it until now. Let me say that this movie started out really weird and immediately made me not want to watch it. Oh and the comic book didn't start like the movie at all.

At the point in the movie where Hit-Girl (the girl with the purple hair) shows up, pretty much the entire movie changes. The scene she's first in she kills multiple people with multiple weapons and she's only 11 years old. She slices off a guy's foot, and stabs another few people. Also, Nick Cage looks ridiculous with his mustache. Just saying. And he doesn't fit the roll of an anti-crime-dude anyways; he should stick to National Treasure or movies like them.

I think the movie should have just been named Hit-Girl because she's way more awesome than Kick-Ass; she's an 11 year old girl who kills at least 20 people in the movie while Kick-Ass is a teenaged boy who kills maybe 5 people. I do like the plot though because it's not the typical "I'm an awesome super-powered person fighting crime" but 'normal' people trying to be superheroes.

I give it: 6/10
