Kick-Ass
I saw Kick-Ass today. I would give it an 8/10. I went in with no expectations, I had no idea what the plot was, if it was going to be serious, cheesy, a comedy, drama. I had no idea about it other than that there was a purple haired girl in it. She’s not even the main character. I was very pleasantly surprised with it…definitely not your standard super hero movie, I don’t think anything like this has ever been done.

I LOVED all the little comic jokes….the movie is LOADED with them….I could probably count about 15-20 that I got…and I’m pro comic nerd. Still, to be able to throw in that many.

OH MAN, ALSO THE DRIVING SOUTH ON YONGE ST!!! I could see the CIBC and the Bay yellow logos at Yonge and Bloor….those were blurred out but they were still totally recognizable to me.

I would recommend seeing it, despite a few things I didn’t really like, it was pretty good.

I realize that my expectation and standard for movies is really high…I’m very picky about every little thing, the small things get on my nerves and I don’t look at the overall big picture. I guess it disappoints me when you can have a movie that’s overall really good, but has some obvious flaws and unnecessary things. They’re small but the fact that they’re in it…makes me ask “who approved this sh!tty idea?!”. I mean, when you look at Battlestar Galactica, which wasn’t even a movie, every single thing is done right. No detail missed, no corners cut (which is actually why ALL the papers, books, everything have cut corners….the show was very meticulous regarding the detail of the show and one of their rules was that “no corner would be cut”). Battlestar Galactica is my standard for the perfect TV show/drama. I’m even comparing it to movies now…which is really odd. You can do 4-5 years of a perfect show and still not get 2 hours of movie right!? I DUN BELIEVE.
