Okay, just to clear things up in case you don't read the comic. Kick-Ass is the name of the book/movie. Understood? Alright good.

(footage at the bottom if you don't wanna read much, didn't think I'd type so much.)

So, honestly for this movie I was kind of just "eeeehhh" at first. But after seeing this footage, it seems to remain VERY faithful to the book and looks like a great film. I love the book it's amazing, a lot of action and great humor. If you are unfamiliar with the book, here's a quick description I stole from IMDB.

Dave Lizewski is an unnoticed high school student and comic book fan with a few friends and who lives alone with his father. His life is not very difficult and his personal trials not that overwhelming. However, one day he makes the simple decision to become a super-hero even though he has no powers or training.



Yeah, so pretty much, the book just has a lot of humor and over the top, ahem, kick ass action. ;D See what I did there?

Most of the action comes from Hit Girl, the 11 year old assassin, and her father Big Daddy, not related to Bioshock but he's out after the mob for killing his wife and he's been training his daughter and not letting her live a normal life since she was a girl.



Red Mist is another superhero who's just the same as Kick-Ass, but he's mostly in it for the fame and publicity, but he's actually a real down to earth cool dude. (Played by McLovin, which I'm not sure how that will work.)



The only real beef I have with the movie now, is Hit Girl. She's supposed to be wielding two katanas, but it only showed her use them once so far. I hope she uses it a lot more in the movie, because a lot of the pictures that I've seen of her have been with a silenced gun, ghey.

Pedo Alert!:


Well enjoy the movie footage, I think it's gonna be a fun movie and very faithful to the book, unlike Mark Millar's other adaption "Wanted", which I enjoyed, but it was very loosely based off the book. Coming out, I don't know when.
