Are you tired of the same old thing at the movies. Are you tired of the same old action sequences, often by the same old actors? Are you tired of being treated like an idiot-of-the-masses by movie businessmen? Then come to the cinema now and have your spirit renewed by Kick-Ass. Have restored that long jaded and dead part of the movie going experience that you loved (or at least appreciated) so long ago. Over the years, I have come to despise over-the-top action sequences, especially when they involve an invulnerable macho killing machine. I typically avoid movies that advertise these, and shake my head in disgust if I find myself forced to witness them. Can anybody say Rambo IV. However,Kick-Ass, primarily due to Hit Girl (Choloe Moretz) scenes, has brought back joy to me regarding action scenes. You can say this is due to a gimmick in using an 11 year old girl, but that is wrong. It is originality and style that has been missing. It is genuine creativity that is absent. Action scenes have become just canned commodities that the movie business judges as a profit vehicle. I just went to my 3rdviewing of Kick-Ass, and I have been more impressed by each viewing.There are many elements in this movie to be appreciated, which other reviewers have aptly described. I found the father daughter relationship between Cage and Moretz to be incredibly touching and heartfelt, despite it's ludicrous context. Action sequences are not even a priority for my movie-going experience. But they are done so well in this movie, that I had to point this out to others who have been jaded and discouraged like me. Go see Kick-Ass for any reason. But go see it for these incredible action sequences as well. They are clever, exciting, and stylistic. They are unique in all cinema,especially in this business-jaded age.
