Movie Review: Kick Ass


2010 was, or still is a year full of remakes, adoptions, sequels, and spinoffs, but ironically, there aren't many superhero movies, movies based on good Vs. evil, or even comic book adoptions, ironically there are only two of those types movies this year, and those movies are Kick Ass and Iron Man 2, but now is not the time to compare between both movies, this review is all about Kick Ass.


Kick Ass as a comic book was a very unique idea, it's about a comic book fan named Dave Lezewzki, who did not have any powers, no special skills, or no weapons, but he wanted to be a superhero, and he was the only one out of millions of comic book fans that has the guts try it, so now were all thinking: is he that much of an idiot? Well, the point is that this one idea was excellent for a comic book, and I think that it was also an excellent idea for a movie as well, this idea could bring a huge amount of entertainment into a movie, whether it's action, whether it's comedy, that one small idea could lead to being one of the best movies of all-time, but now the question is, did that idea bring as much entertainment as I expected? No, it didn't, the movie was entertaining, but I think it could have brought allot more, it could have done allot better.

Kick as was, as I mentioned, an entertaining piece of work, it had a good story to follow, the action scenes where fun, the acting was strong, there were a few funny jokes, and believe it or not, adding blood to the violence in superhero movies really makes a difference, and makes superhero movies seem a bit more realistic, but other the those few positives, there was not really much to praise about the movie.

The errors in Kick Ass could be considered as minor, or close to major errors, they where too much errors to be ignored, I mean, who could ignore the fact that many jokes where just straight up dumb and stupid, or ignore the fact that there were some characters which were just used in filler scenes, those where two examples of errors that can't be ignored, yet, at the same time, they won't really be anyone's first impression of the movie.

Kick Ass was generally a movie that had potential and high expectations to be one of the best of all-time, but unfortionetly, due to a few errors, and the fact that there is not much to praise about this movie, I think that Kick Ass is a disappointing movie, yet, at the same time, it was a pretty entertaining and fun movie to watch.
