Kick Ass

Glad to hear this, I loved the comics and cannot wait for the U.S. release.

I just got back from an advance screening, the film is nuts! It's like the dark knight but funny! Hit Girl is awesome, and the movie shifts from ridiculous comedy to serious super-hero seamlessly.

Plus Nicholas Cage has finally had his first good role since the mid-90's!

Good to hear. I want to see this, but someone was describing it to me as "Mystery Men" with teens.

I am about to go to the Midnight Screening of it in Austin, i'll post my thoughts when i return!

awesome reviews, I can't wait to check it out

I hate that mclovin character/actor so much.

I think it's mainly because of his association with that character.

have 2 tix for this at 930pm tonight at regal la live in downtown los angeles. unfortunately chose wrong time. free for anyone that wants them. they are fandango, just print and present to ticker taker..

Movie was awesome!
If you read the comics it strays from the originals towards about the 2/3 mark but still is a fantastic movie.
I would recommend this to anyone who likes comedy/action, the girl who plays Hit Girl is so badass in the movie that it kind of puts shame to some of the other action stuff I've seen lately.

This movie is awesome. It has it's hilarious moments, but it's dark and twisted in multiple ways. It surpasses all the other comic book movies except for "The Dark Knight" imo (but only because of the joker).

Funny thing about the Dark Knight is that without the Joker it just seems overly self important and referential. gravely voice =/ gravitas.

Most movies would seem overly self important and referential if you took away their main antagonist.

Is that how your remaining nut feels?

I am so happy to hear this!

And... it's not a remake! Amazing! Let this be a lesson (looking at you, Clash of the Titans) that remakes have gotten tired, and the good stuff is still original.

Probably see it Sunday
