KICK ASS [movie trailer]
The superhero movie minus the super! …?… Trust me this flick’s gonna kick ass:
Based on the comic by Mark Millar and John Romita Jr. / Directed by Matthew Vaughn / Staring Nicolas Cage, Aaron Johnson, Lyndsy Fonseca, Mark Strong, Christopher Mintz-Plasse and Chloe Moretz.
Kick-Ass tells the story of average teenager Dave Lizewski (Johnson), a comic-book fanboy who decides to take his obsession as inspiration to become a real-life superhero.
As any good superhero would, he chooses a new name — Kick-Ass — assembles a suit and mask to wear, and gets to work fighting crime. There’s only one problem standing in his way: Kick-Ass has absolutely no superpowers.
His life is forever changed as he inspires a subculture of copy cats, is hunted by assorted violent and unpleasant characters, and meets up with a pair of crazed vigilantes, including an 11-year-old sword-wielding dynamo, Hit Girl (Moretz) and her father, Big Daddy (Cage).
Awesome! It doesn’t look nearly as violent as the comic book. However, I’m sure that the movie will live up to the hype and the amazing pre-release reviews.
