Kick Ass – "This sure isn't X-men 5"

Rating: 8/10 (31 May 2010)

This is a movie that flips the comic book genre on its head. It's very refreshing to see something completely different in this genre after 50 Batmans, four X-mens, 3 Spidermans, 2 Hulks, and 2 Iron Mans. Kick Ass has a great story, plenty of excitement & action, and some killer comedy. I can totally see why some people would be offended by some of the content of this movie, but its all contextual and easy to shrug off with a point of view that it's all just a bit of fun.
On the Fruit-Meter Kick Ass gets the 'Pineapple' - A big and bold movie. Plenty of zesty flavours, and has a spiky outer skin that may hurt viewers with delicate skin.
