Kick-Ass Ratings & Reviews

Manuel FrangisMarch 26, 2025
I just watched Kick-Ass and I give it 5 out of 5 stars. This movie still holds up as one of the craziest and most fun superhero films out there. It is bold, brutal, funny, and somehow manages to balance real world grit with comic book chaos in the best way. From start to finish, it never slows down, and it is one of those movies that sticks with you because of how unique it is. Aaron Taylor-Johnson plays Dave Lizewski, a regular high school kid who decides to become a superhero even though he has no powers, training, or clue what he is doing. His journey from nobody to something close to a hero is messy, violent, and awkward in a way that feels kind of real. He is not perfect or fearless, but he has heart and determination, and that is what makes him fun to watch. But let’s be honest, the real scene stealer in this movie is Hit-Girl. Played by Chloë Grace Moretz, she is one of the most unforgettable characters in any superhero movie. She is this tiny, foul-mouthed, knife-slinging powerhouse who completely takes over every scene she is in. Her fight scenes are insane, and the way she mixes deadly skill with a totally fearless attitude makes her stand out big time. Nicolas Cage as Big Daddy is another awesome surprise. He plays Hit-Girl’s father and mentor, and he brings a weird, Batman-inspired vibe that somehow works perfectly. His character adds some emotion and backstory, while also being totally over the top in a way that only Cage can pull off. The action in Kick-Ass is next level. The fight choreography is slick, fast, and brutal. It does not hold back at all. The violence is raw and stylized, and it gives the movie an edge that sets it apart from your typical superhero film. There are some crazy shootouts, wild martial arts scenes, and moments that will catch you totally off guard. The humor is sharp and dark. The movie is not afraid to make fun of the superhero genre while also celebrating it. It points out how ridiculous the idea of a real life superhero is, but also shows how cool it could be if someone actually went for it. There are jokes that land hard, awkward situations that are hilarious, and some moments that are just straight up wild. What makes this movie more than just a violent comedy is how well it handles its characters. You actually care about what happens to them. Dave is a likable underdog, Hit-Girl has depth behind the shock factor, and even the villains have some personality. The story is tight, the stakes are real, and there is more heart here than you might expect. The pacing is great. It never slows down too much and always keeps the energy up. Whether it is a training montage, a showdown, or a moment of reflection, everything moves with purpose. The soundtrack is also fire, adding the perfect energy to the action scenes. I give it 5 out of 5 stars because it pulls off something that is really hard to do. It is a superhero movie that feels fresh, funny, and raw, without trying too hard to be edgy. It just owns what it is and delivers something totally different. Overall Kick-Ass is a wild, bloody, hilarious ride that flips the superhero formula and somehow makes it all work. I loved every second of it and would watch it again anytime.
