Review of Kick-Ass 2 (2013) by Jason C — 02 Jun 2014
Nowhere ne'er as good as the original, but it's still entertaining.
Aaron Johnson May be less believable In his role, but that was inevitable as he grows into an adult actor.
I think that hit girl isn't as likeable or as believable, despite people saying it was the high point of the film.
Christopher Mintz-Plasse is great in both films and with Javier to assist him, along with his super team, The Mother F*#%>r is a super badass villain.
Jim Carey also shines in his role of Colonel Stars and Stripes and totally brings something new to the film.
The visuals do look good, but there are not much compared to the first ones. Because of the cinematographer change, it kinda feels like they tried a bit to hard to copy it.
A big part to the critical families of the film is the directer. I mean, Wadlow does a fairly good job, but the camera techniques, smooth action, and real visual flare is mostly gone.
Overall this is a film with nice visuals, good acting, but really it's just a riot to watch.
Although, Mother Russia is a total un likeable b***h, Black Death was way the best henchman.
