I can't remember why but when it was on at the cinema i never got a chance to go and see it, now it is available on SkyGo before it airs on Sky Movies next week.
I really liked the first Kick Ass and to be honest i didn't think that Kick Ass 2 lived up to my expectations, i think that it missed Nicolas Cage from the first film because he was brilliant as Big Daddy, However i did like the dynamic between Mindy aka Hit Girl (Chloe Grace Moretz) and Dave aka Kick Ass (Aaron Taylor Johnson).
The premise of the film is that Kick Ass joins up with a group of normal people who have been inspired by Kick Ass to go out in costumes and fight crime with Chris D'Amico aka Red Mist now the MotherFucker (Christopher Mintz-Plasse) is forming a group of super villains to seek revenge on Kick Ass for killing his dad, the scenes with The MotherFucker i thought that he was a brilliant character.
Mindy has promised her guardian Marcus (Morris Chestnut) that she will try and be a normal teenage girl and hang up her costume with Dave constantly trying to convince her to join his new team which includes Colonel Stars and Stripes (Jim Carrey) whose character i felt was under developed and had no traits that we have come to love from a Jim Carrey character, he was kind of boring really.
All in all i found the film to be quite boring and was missing something that made the first film brilliant Chloe Moretz carried the film with her brilliant acting, even the final battle was kind of a let down, it had a few highs but not enough to make me watch it again.
Rating 5/10
