Film Review: Kick Ass

Friday 2nd April 2010

Well last night I took team Spartmedia to the Vue Cinema at Westwood Cross and we watched "Kick-Ass"... the film from Director Matthew Vaughn. I have to say my expectations were not high... but it turned out to be a great film! very funny and managed to be serious too without taking itself too seriously.

Some great action scenes and a nice pace throughout. Very dark at times too. And a killer quote which is far to rude to post on here...Overall it could have easily got a one way ticket on the fail bus, by trying to be too funny but they got the balance right and avoided too many cliche's, althought there are plenty of cheesy moments and subtle in-jokes about the hero genre.

Comedy: 3/5

Action: 4/5

Script Originality: 4/5

Overall: 4/5 well worth the cinema ticket.
