GR writes: "My old roomie had a great way of summing up the work of Wanted and Kick-Ass creator Mark Millar. He described it as being the kind of stuff that a thirteen-year old boy would write if they were in charge of putting together a comic book. Hyper-violent, over-sexualized, and full of more swear words than a South Park episode directed by Quentin Tarantino. I feel this is a bit more apt when referring to Wanted; I couldn't find anything redeeming about it beyond its parody of some of my favorite super-villains."
Kick-Ass the movie styled in an undeniably Double Dragon-centric design. Everything from the way the enemies move, to the side-scrolling action screams classic side-scrolling beat ‘em up.
"Licensed games generally suck. It’s a fact, but at least most developers give the illusion of putting forth an effort to make something tolerable. Kick-Ass is a throwback to the 16-bit era, when all you needed were a few horribly digitized soundbites from actors and a recognizable image for the menu, and you had yourself a movie tie-in. At least Kick-Ass got the menu part right."
Kick-Ass for the PlayStation Network will be available tomorrow at a new, lower price to celebrate the movie's release on DVD and Blu-Ray.
At first I thought the movie would of been for little kids, but When I saw this at a friends house I was like WTF!, dude this movie totally Kicks-Ass.
I like it when the gangster guy talks about kids having spider man parties, but why are they having kick-ass parties.
Why would you think a movie titled "Kick-Ass" would be for kids? HAHAHA!!! The comics were ultra-violent too.
judging from your avatar i would have thought you would like this movie
i certainly liked it and obviously love boondocks, may it have many more seasons to come
if you are referring to The Boondocks lasting for more seasons...it has been rumored that this will be the last season. But, there is also a rumor that this is because Aaron McGruder wants to do a full length Boondocks movie.
Meh, that's how the film industry is. Most of the negatively-reviewed films always seem to be the ones to turn into cult-classics (Scarface is a big example of that. Pretty bad reviews).
EDIT: Sh*t, I read "movie" instead of "game".
