Kick Ass



**SPOILERS BELOW**

Based on the Mark Millar and John Romita Jnr comic book of the same name. Kick Ass closely follows the comics, albeit with some notable changes.

So, basically the story revolves around a go, who decides, to dress up in a costume and fight crime. He has no super powers or anything, just an ordinary guy. So Kick Ass first foray into crime fighting does not go very well. He does eventually improve, and run into the films other cast, most notably Big Daddy, and the foul mouthed tyke Hit Girl.

The story really shines, the whole is ridiculous, but it works nonetheless, and gives us a unique take on the super hero movie genre, that is one part love letter, and another part send up.

Overall, Kick Ass is a great movie, and I highly recommend you go and see it.
