Truly Kick-Ass...

Rating: 9/10 (5 August 2010)

Superheroes, we love them don't we? Personally speaking, I worship the over-hyped power trons for their extra-ordinary un-real-ness. Batman has been my all-time favorite, no one touches his style and mannerisms. But the topic 'I' am talking about today, is about a set of self-made superheroes, who are strange/abusive/violent and majorly amusing. Pesto, let's enter the world of 'Kick-Ass'!
Based on the comic book of the same name by Mark Millar and John Romita, Jr, 'Kick-Ass' is truly a kick-ass film, that leaves you enthusiastic. It won't be wrong to state 'Kick-Ass' amongst the best films of 2010. Matthew Vaughn who has earlier made memorable films, makes his careers best effort!
Story of an ordinary teenager, who sets out to become a real-life superhero calling himself 'Kick-Ass'. Dave gets caught up in a bigger fight when he meets Big Daddy, a former cop who, in his quest to bring down the evil drug lord Frank D'Amico, has trained his eleven-year-old daughter to be the ruthless vigilante 'Hit-Girl'. It's a normal revenge story from one side, and 'I Will Stand Up For What's Right' from the other. Hahah, 'Kick-Ass' defies normal stuff, and makes it's superheroes as real as possible.
'Kick-Ass' has the coolest super-kid! 'Hit Girl' is 'Kick-Ass', by all means. She is the most effective guard possible, and undoubtedly, a cult-personality in the film-dom. And... Red Mist is the worst superhero ever!!
Matthew Vaughn has enjoyed making this film, and his love for his dream-project is visible from scene A to Z. Ben Davis's Cinematography is top-notch. The Editing is sleek. Stunts are 'Kick-Ass'!!
In the acting department, Nicolas Cage steals the show. The Academy-Award Winner is incredible, and is truly missed after he leaves the scene. Aaron Johnson as the original 'Kick-Ass' is superb. Chloë Grace Moretz as my favorite 'Hit Girl' is fantastic. She lives her part from start to end. Mark Strong is quite good as the evil-head. Christopher Mintz-Plasse as Red Mist, is annoying. Clark Duke is likable. Lyndsy Fonseca is perfect.
On the whole, 'Kick-Ass' rocks! It might not entertain each and everyone, but it already has dedicated fans like me & others who'll make this a memorable-hit! Two Big Thumbs Up!
