Rating: 10/10 (17 April 2010)

Need of escape of the real world? Try comic books. Need of a local super hero? Count on Kick-Ass! Here you have a teen named Dave Lizweski (Aaron Johnson), quiet, awkward, invisible to girls who has an obsession with comic books. He lives with his father, after his mother died at the breakfast table, he descends into total silence with himself. It took some reading of comic books which would make him something interesting; a superhero. But his friends thinks he's out there. Maybe. But one day when he and his pal get robbed, Dave goes into this mode that changes his persona for the better of mankind: Kick-Ass. When he meets the same thugs, he gets attack and stabbed. The second time, he becomes a sensation of New York. After that, he inspires more people to become a superhero. A father(Nicholas Cage) and his daughter become HitGirl and Big Daddy. Hit Girl was total bad. She kills without remorse and so does her sidekick father. The result of that; police corruption that lead to his wife's death, and his imprisonment by a corrupt detective(Xander Berkley). When the heroes collide against the thugs, it's a blood fest waiting to happen. This movie has plenty of action, plenty of comedy, and plenty of crudeness which is not surprising. If you want to live your inner hero, check out Kick-Ass!! 5 stars!
