The sequel is kinda mean-spirited in a not-very-fun way. I'd say watch it on your own. There are still so many movies I'd want you to watch that haven't (yet?) hit the reactor zeitgeist in a big way: Walk Hard Lucky Number Slevin Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang Men Who Stare At Goats foremost among them. "Mr Right", "Stretch", and "7 Days in Hell" are excellent, underappreciated movies, but I don't hold out much hope that they'll ever be properly appreciated.

@@cw1345 You missed the point entirely. The movie has comedic elements and the dude that looks like a pseudo-modern Batman is kind of a dork who is emulating the 60s Adam West Batman. Your comment about it not being the 60s is kind of stupid since he wasn't actually trying to play a modern Batman here. Not to mention the fact that the 60s show made Batman a household name and saved the comics from being cancelled and falling into obscurity. It also created multiple generations of REAL comic fans because it was entertaining for children and funny for adults at the time. You wouldn't likely have any modern versions of Batman without it.

@@raymondgilbert1341 The thought had occurred to me that it could be the result of editing, but it happens in other scenes, too, like the night vision scene. Maybe that was also edited down and/or reordered, I don't know. Whatever the reason, the end result is that she often appears to be artificially short on ammo. And of course she was "nerfed" at the end to let Kick-Ass be the hero. I totally buy D'Amico beating her in hand-to-hand combat while unarmed or barely armed, since he had some fighting skills and was much bigger and stronger, but she could have gone for his gun instead of throwing it aside, for example. And earlier, she never used her stun grenades when they could have come in handy, possibly. Carrying a few fragmentation grenades would really have come in handy when she was cornered in the kitchen, as well.

Glad you enjoyed this classic Jen. If you are interested in watching Kick-ass 2, it's worth mentioning that it has a different director, who kind of tries to emulate Vaughn's style, but doesn't really hit the mark. The new director also goes for a much more faithful adaption of the Kick-ass 2 comic (faithful to a fault seems to be the general opinion), whereas Matthew Vaughn's Kick-ass, and the source comic diverge pretty heavily- to the point that one could argue that the core message at the heart of comic book, and the philosophy of the film adaptation end up in opposition of one another. I know some fans weren't happy about the changes, but I personally feel that they ultimately made for a more satisfying film overall. I've tried to give Kick-ass 2 several chances, but everytime, I'm let down unfortunately

This movie is hilarious. The characters made this movie. Red Mist aka McLovin, was beyond funny. Big Daddy .. and Hit Girl' who looks so sweet and innocent .. turns out to be super lethal.

A joke that the younger viewers will miss is that Hit-Girl's theme song is the theme song from the 1960's tv series, The Banana Splits, which was, itself, a truly whacked out tv series. I used to watch old re-runs after school when I was a kid. The sequel is very good.

I honestly taught my 11 years younger sister the same way, back in 2000. Not so much weapons, but self-defense and combat reflex actions. .... Welll .....Actually....I started with that, then she used it on our mother. Then I had to teach her discipline/self-restraint as well. She was ~9 years old when I started. She was feared on the playground. I had to teach that girl so much temperance. I thought she was a nerd, I did not know she was really a tom-boy..... ugh. She married a marine who could barely keep up with her. I have stories if you wish to hear, about some of the training. Some humorous, some with me with my head in my hand.

My mom had you beat. Back when I was around 8 or so she decided I needed to learn how to fight and since she was a single mom she decided to get (a slightly unstable) Vietnam vet green Barret she had dated to teach me to fight. He taught me hand to hand the way he had been taught. Everything was based on the idea that there is no such thing as a fair fight and you take down the enemy as hard and as fast as humanly possible. I spent years trying to talk people out of starting a fight with me cause I was legit scared I would accidentally put them in the hospital.

The movie deviates in two major ways from the comics, which changes the tone when you get to the end. For one, Big Daddy's backstory in the comic is a lie, which he uses as an excuse to act as a superhero. He has a briefcase with him all the time, which he's very protective of. Turns out, it's full of expensive comics, which he's been selling to fund his and Hit-Girl's weaponry. It should be noted: at the end of the first comic series, Hit-Girl goes to live with her mom, who she didn't know was alive and well this whole time. The other big change is when the main character reveals his secret identity and that he's not gay--she kicks him out and hates him because he lied to her, sending him photos of her having sex with other guys, because she knows he'd hate to see it. Also, the finale action scene is definitely different from the comics, but I can't remember how the story ends in the source material. At least it's still noticeably an actual adaptation of the comic, though, unlike the movie Wanted (same comic writer), which may as well not even be tied to the comic it's based on.

Chloe was the star of this film, hands down. She trained and trained to be able to do the butterfly knife scenes, and used to whip them out on TV shows to impress the hosts. It is crazy to think that she actually had me believing a little kid could kick the crap out of grown ass men and be such a fantastic badass. One of my favorite characters of all time.

Many people have mentioned that Nic Cage was supposed to be Superman. There is an actual documentary about this called "The Death of Superman: What Happened?" that has test footage of Nic Cage in his Superman outfit as well as interviews with Tim Burton, Kevin Smith, and others. It's worth checking out.

Nick Cage was supposed to play Superman in a movie known as Superman Lives that writer/director Kevin Smith (Silent Bob) spent some time on as the primary script writer. There is fantastic video of him talking about this from one of his Evening with Kevin Smith DvDs and the Superman part is easily googled. It's one of the most hilarious real Hollywood movie stories you'll ever hear. Later there was a whole documentary done that went back and interviewed a good amount of the real life characters involved. Nick Cage is a huge comic book nerd and the rumor always was that he tried getting onboard with every superhero movie that came down the pipeline for awhile before they finally just made a movie where he starred as his favorite character (who he actually has a tattoo of) Ghost Rider.

That looks like a Mk 153 SMAW (Shoulder-launched Multipurpose Assault Weapon). This is a weapon used by the US Marines, primarily against bunkers, although it is very versatile and can be used against tanks and personnel. It's adapted from a similar Israeli weapon. It's basically a highly modernized Bazooka, but not exactly the same.

The movie actually softens a lot of things from the original comic (spoilers below): In the comic, Big Daddy's backstory turns out to be a total lie and he was just an accountant who wanted a more exciting life and raised his daughter with a fake story about him trying to avenge his wife In the movie, Red Mist is introduced early on and it's shown from the start that he is infiltrating the hero side; it also takes time to build sympathy for him and his relationship with his father. In the comic, he just appears midway through the story and him being a traitor is a big surprise

I feel like all the changes are for the better. There is one other change I remember hearing about: . . . . . . . . . Katie apparently becomes a real piece of work in the comic books, but I love having the reactions of her and Marcus to the "Unmasking" scene as it just adds so much tension knowing those are the only people who know who is really there (in contrast to the people watching random people)

One of the most epic pieces of music ever IMO, 'Adagio For Sunshine' by John Murphy is the music playing as Big Daddy dies, and as Kickass flies Hitgirl to safety on the jetpack. It absolutely rules. If you haven't seen the movie it was originally written for, 'Sunshine' with Cillian Murphy and TONS of other top-notch people, absolutley check it out. It's a sci-fi movie about an attempt to save Earth from a dying Sun.
