Last
16th August was the premiere of the Kick-Ass 2 movie which of course not in my
country because here we can only watch it starting on the 29th of August
(another week to go). Since I can't wait to watch it in the cinema, I already
watched it online last 2 days. Here are my comments. After reading Hit-Girl and
Kick-Ass comics for two nights in a row (yes, I watched the movie first then
read the comics. So?), I found that Kick-Ass 1 is more interesting than the
sequel. This is probably the same as the wolverine movie which everyone kept
saying that the sequel was bored to death but my sister and I found that it was
not that bad. It was okay after all and I still can't find which part bored them to
death. Back to Kick-Ass 2, as being obviously stated on the poster, this movie
not only based on Kick-Ass volume 2 comics, it is also based on Hit-Girl
comics. (Kick-Ass 2: prequel Hit-Girl). So, similar to other superhero movies
that based on comics or movies that based on novels, Kick-Ass 2 also not exactly
100% as same as their comics. After her dad's die, Mindy had to stay with
Marcus (in comics, he has a wife) and she had promised him to stay away from
Hit-Girl suit. Thus, there were not much of Hit-Girl actions (if you plan to
watch this in the cinema just to watch Hit Girl's violence) and she's too busy
fighting bitches in her school instead of fight criminals. The
rest of the story was quite the same as the comics where Kick-Ass kept his ass
busy finding other superheroes for team up and the climax of the story is
when superheroes meet super-villains. Well, it is still a recommended to watch
but not sure if it is worth your money if you want to spend it watch in the
cinema.
