PLOT
Dave Lizewski is fond of comics and superheroes, he wants to be a masked
crusader. But he doesn’t have any superpowers like Peter Parker nor he is rich
like Bruce Wayne. But still he does what his mind says and started to roam in
night as a masked vigilante in the name of Kick-ass. But once when he
accidently becomes a threat to the local mobster Franco, his life becomes in
danger.
Kick-Ass is a 2010 action comedy
film by Mathew Vaughn based on the comics of the Kick Ass in the same name, it
became a real work only after the director Mathew Vaughn decides to increase its
budget, before that none of the production company was interested in the
project, then Lionsgate showed interest and it released. Kick-Ass is not a
typical action superhero movie where you can watch unstoppable action, it’s an
action comedy movie which shows that how will it be when an average person
becomes a super hero. Its been after a long time that I’ am watching a Nicholas
Cage movie. Even if he doesn’t have much screen presence, he made an impact in
his small role. He used the mannerism and speech modulation as Big Daddy like
the Adam West’s “Batman” (1966). In the movie the story of Big Daddy was
changed from that of comics, but the co- creator Mark Miller itself likes the
film version of Big-Daddy than the comics one. There is many memorable background
music in the movie, my personal favorite is the Big Daddy’s music during the
raid scene in the warehouse. It was also used in the movie “28 days later”.
More than the hero of the movie Dave or Kick-Ass, I like Hit-girl who was just like a tiny Wonder Woman and cute at the same time. But there were many controversies for using obscene language and violence by a child. Chloë Grace Moretz also faces many criticisms for portraying Hit-girl in the movie, the movie didn’t have much impact during the release due to clash with How to train your Dragon and Nightmare on the Elm street. But in the torrent and DVDs it rockets the sales and became the 7th most illegally downloaded movies of all time and shows its cult following. I don’t know whether DC and Marvel fans will like this comedy superhero movie, but if you want fun this is the best choice.
