Movie Info
Using his love for comics as inspiration, teenager Dave Lizewski (Aaron Johnson) decides to reinvent himself as a superhero -- despite a complete lack of special powers. Dave dons a costume, dubs himself "Kick-Ass," and gets to work fighting crime. He joins forces with the father/daughter vigilante team of Big Daddy and Hit Girl, then befriends another fledgling crime-fighter called Red Mist (Christopher Mintz-Plasse), but a scheming mobster soon puts their alliance to the test.

Sep 09, 2016A great adaptation of the source material makes for a very entertaining and violent ride. Begs the question, what would a superhero be like in real life? If you dig violent action and can handle a lot of profanity, this movie could be for you. Chloe Grace Moretz without question steals the show in this one.Patrick W Super Reviewer

Sep 20, 2013It made me depressed, the characters are all retarded and flimsy. I like the concept, but the characters are horrible and acting were so bad, I really didn't like any of the actors. The profanity was totally distasteful, I don't even understand why it was used, it just made the film stupid. However, the redeeming quality was the editing and cinematography. If you are not a fan of genre defying, hyper action films then this is really not your cup of tea. Cliche, cliches everywhere. The jokes were lame, I really just doesn't like it, the film is too unrealistic and preposterous. I appreciate what the film is about but I didn't like the ensemble.Sylvester K Super Reviewer
