I was torn between g...iving this a 4 star or a 5 star. Kick-Ass 2 will probably not be the best movie you've ever seen; but sometimes there are other aspects which should be considered, and these should be rated at, too. An important aspect- in my opinion- is: "Was it really fun to watch?" I say that the answer is: "Yes!" For the most part the characters were likable. The F/X were very good. The filming was top notch. The sets were fine. The acting was very good- or better. Very good pace. The script was better then acceptable. The story could have used a little more meat but they added a lot of outside bits to fill in the spaces [bringing in the father, the super-hero gang, the shark, the teen angst, ...] Plot: 2 super heroes. Both dealing with father and one with the guardian- also, are, dealing with high school and their place in the high school. One has quit being a super hero and one is doing it in secret. Then they switch that position. Basically the main theme is: "To be, or not to be, a super hero? Is it nobler to suffer the slings and arrows as a super hero. Or to suffer the mental turmoil that is to stand on the side lines and 'fit in'? That is the question!" [This along with VENGENCE is what this film is about. Lots of action. Dump put off some other film that you're dying to see for this; but if you're looking for a fun [non-serious- movie with high entertainment value, this should do. Special: both the female villain and hero are the best characters without making them ridicules and over the top. Finally: The scene with the bad woman taking on the cops can probably go up against any action scene.
Great action movies. Films are rated R, so not for young ki...ds. However, there is a lot of things to keep you interested in these 2 movies.
