The main character is schoolboy Dave Lizewski, who, dressed up in a superhero costume, tries to fight criminals, although he does not have any abilities for this. In parallel, two characters - an 11-year-old girl who crushes the gangsters with a sword, and the son of a gangster leading her own investigation, are trying to figure out the identity of Dave ...
ReviewsInnovative American parodyCombining a lot of advantages and disadvantages, Matthew Vaughn's picture, which claims to be original in both the superhero world in particular and in the cinema, is in principle attractive by default for some tastes and causes rejection by the first five minutes of the others. Combining the cliche of the American "superheroes", inspired by the plot with original black humor, the authors of history managed to create a bright dynamic and colorful thriller, where inordinate violence is also much like conventional foolishness and from all the cracks of iron bars that leave the MARVEL and DC children without pants.
Everything begins with the kind that the authors introduce us to the future bearer of heroic ammunition, thus provoking twofold feelings. On the one hand, the fact that before us a typical American teenage loser in a green suit will "bring justice" is already causing a smile. However, the same kid in many can cause rejection already at the very beginning of the film, showing frank potential vulgarity. Here it is worthwhile to understand that if you are waiting for some intellectual ridicule of the American heritage of comic books (it's ridiculous only from reading such a phrase), then in no case do not take a look. But if you are waiting for a vigorous dynamic picture with stupid, but having the ground thanks to the American treasure of jokes, then boldly take a look.
Slightly overstated pain threshold and unlimited romantic positive is all that Kick-Ass can do to repel the local criminal hierarchy. And it in turn, as it should, will put pressure on the public impact on the pain threshold Kick-Ass.
But of course it's no secret to anyone that a two-hour picture of a clown being beaten in a green suit can get bored already after a half. It's good that the author of the comic book foresaw this and prepared a couple of surprises called Ubiwashka and Papaney. And despite the irony of the fact of its existence, local "Marvelists" will take on a much more noble mission in their frame than Pipets, in addition to parody in general, very successfully contributing to the filming technique. Seemingly so great in its own, you will see by whom the suit is inspired, the hero of Nicolas Cage acts stylishly and leisurely, allowing the viewer to enjoy fully taking place under the quality soundtrack. The killer is carried by a swift, but even more qualitatively filmed, deadly whirlwind. And feeling the increase in the pulse, involuntarily you catch yourself on the sympathy of an eleven-year-old girl with a mask on her face, beating healthy armed men. Even writing about this without a smile on your face is not possible, what to say about viewing?
And despite the abundance of irony and trash on the screen, all the characters of this colorful sodomy look incredibly real and alive. It's just not possible not to sympathize with the family of the criminal leader. Their dialogue with the son will prevent the viewer from somewhere between reality and the comedy thriller about the guys in costumes.
Pipets is a world in which everyone can find themselves. This is a world created at the intersection of the boundless ridicule of genre canons and some vital reality. And most importantly, "Kick-Ass" is a world enveloped in deep, bright irony, in some incomprehensible way, almost miraculously, managed to preserve the main goal of comic superhero products - an undeniable inspiring moral.
And so so ironic and so inspiring "Kick-Ass" after four views receives
