So I just got back from Kick-Ass 2 (no spoilers here)

I must say it's getting a much worse rap on rotten tomatoes than it deserves. Admitedly there was one scene that sticks out in my mind that deserved to be left on the cutting room floor (although I could just as easily see where younger people might love love that scene). That being said the action was good, the story was decent enough, and it was mostly true to the original film's tone. I do wish we could have actually seen one or possibly two of the new superhero's backstories, but all in all it was a good film.

So if you have seen it what did you guys think? If you haven't do you plan to see it?

Looking at the trailer it doesn't really seem that bad if you just want to be entertained by some violent action movie with a light hearted side. I tend not to care what rt says, sometimes a film can be complete garbage by all metrics of what makes a "good movie" but be thoroughly entertaining. Example of the opposite: Lincoln, by all counts a decent movie, thoroughly bored the hell out of me. And as far as I'm concerned the main purpose of movies is to entertain. I'll probably give kick ass 2 a look but I tend to wait for it to be released on dvd since cinemas are so expensiveEJ902
