Totally kicks ass!

Rating: 10/10 (13 July 2011)

I can't think of a better summary for this film, but this is not only one of the more enjoyable superhero films recently, but also of the overall year of 2010. I had heard it was good, but I wasn't sure whether it would be my thing. I needn't have worried.
Kick-Ass was hugely enjoyable from start to finish. The production values from the photography and editing to the glorious costumes are striking, and the soundtrack has a lot of energy. As does the fast pace, the smart and witty dialogue and a fun and unpredictable story. The characters are also at least engaging, the action is fantastically choreographed and edited and the acting even from Nicholas Cage(who I have found resume-wise inconsistent) is much better than one would hope.
Overall, truly wonderful and totally kicks ass. 10/10 Bethany Cox
