Kick A** Movie

Rating: 10/10 (6 April 1999)

I went to this movie expecting to see just a normal teen flick to fill my uneventful spring break days, but I came out after seeing a really fun, funny, smart, sad, movie thinking "wow-now that's not the normal teen flick". I think the Ms. Perky thing was brilliant, because the normal teen movie would have the counselor be the friend, and turn out helping the kids, but in this case it was different :) (I won't spoil it for those who haven't seen it). This movie reminds me a lot of Pleasantville (a great movie, might I add) because it shows that young people really can act, and our movies don't have to be sugar coated and stupid-they can be...well...very Shakespearean.
