Kick-Ass kicks butt!
Maybe it's because I didn't expect much from this movie, maybe it was great company I was in, or maybe, just maybe this movie is really f-ing good. I think all three are true. I hate to build something up just to disappoint but, "WOW, I didn't see that coming."
Cast is what it is. They all play their roles well. Mark Strong I believe as his character, Scarface with a weakened backbone. Do I have to mention Nicolas Cage, do Iskipping it. To be honest, I didn't have a clue who Chloe Moretz was, but she steals the movie, big time.
The movie has a teen comedy side that makes it okay for the main steam people to enjoy it. But the flip side to that is uber dark. The fight scenes are "Equilibrium* meets Tarantino" to a point. The soundtrack is random but fun. I can't get enough of the sets. (Who picked the art for the penthouse? Lol, no, reallybad, but funny.)
I give it a 10 out 10. Go see it. Take me with you, it's fun, dark, and fast. Like I like my coffee.
*Just because I reference it, doesn't mean I like it. :-p
