Fantastic mix of comedy and action

Rating: 9/10 (2 June 2011)

"Kick-Ass" is a comedy about superheroes. Dave Lizewski lives in New York. He is a huge comic book fan, who is unnoticed at school and lives alone with his father. One day he makes a decision to become a superhero, without any training or super powers. He tries to "save" people who look like they are in trouble, but ends up failing each time. In one of his superhero attempts, Dave successfully helps a man who is being hunted by 3 men in front of a cafeteria. The teenagers watching the fight record the fight and upload the footage to the internet. This is when Dave proclaims his self as "Kick Ass". Frank D'Amico, a gang leader, believes that "Kick Ass" is responsible for the actions against his gang members. As he is being hunted, he meets up with 2 real superheroes, "Hit Girl" and "Big Daddy".
The director, Matthew Vaughn, successfully shows how superheroes come into existence. The film is a fantastic mix of action and comedy. Each individual character is created very thoroughly, and the viewer can see deeply into each character.
"Hit Girl" (also known as Mindy Macready) is a 12 year old super hero played by Chloe Grace Moretz. Her performances with Nicolas Cage (Damon Macready/Big Daddy) were great. She by far gives the best presentation. Although all the actors were great playing their roles, Moretz is my number 1 favourite actress, And to be honest, if she wasn't in it, I may have not watched the movie. This is probably one of her best films to date. 10/10 for her acting, looks, and presentation. Another good thing is that she would never swear in real life. Personal Quote: "As Chloe, I can honestly say I've never uttered a syllable of a curse word, not even behind closed doors." - Chloe Grace Moretz
I recommend this film to anyone with a like for comedy or action. The film will have a way to satisfy everyone.
9/10 - best film of the year!
