One of the best films I've seen in years

Rating: 10/10 (9 April 2010)

Wasn't sure what to expect going into this one as I'm not a huge fan of superhero films and the adverts didn't give much away, but I was amazed at how good it was. Great soundtrack, really good acting and original storyline - somehow managed to be funny, dramatic and action-packed all in one without compromising any of them.
Hit-girl definitely stole the show for me - something very amusing about a sweet and innocent looking little girl decapitating people and using profanity. Nicholas Cage was also very good in my opinion, as was Red Mist.
Well worth a watch on the big screen for almost any film fan - just be warned that it's not as child-friendly as the trailers may appear. There are at least a couple of pretty gritty scenes which I would be uncomfortable really with any child seeing.
