Saw Kick-Ass today with @rasp165 and WOW was that WAAAAY more violent and vulgar than I was expecting–in the best way. Here’s why…
It’s not some cheesy, campy, comic book related movie like… um Ghost Rider (also starring Nick Cage) or Batman & Robin. It cuts right to the chase, which I love in movies.
Dude likes superheroes in comics, so he tries to be one, except he forgets he’s a comic book nerd and thus has no idea how to fight. In comes in Nick Cage (one of his best roles in a while, but that isn’t saying much…) and some AWESOME LITTLE GIRL with a ‘tude and a mouth known as Hit-Girl. Here’s their debut in the movie:
That part ruled. Here’s some more of her bad-assery from the movie: (NOTICE – clip contains some potty words…)
And boom! It just keeps getting better and better from there. Lots of blood (but not gory, more arcade-like violence) and characters that hint at being self-aware of how awkwardly hilarious some scenes are–I had a lot of fun watching it. Also does make you kinda wonder… why not be a superhero?!
More trailer goodness:
