Kick-Ass

A twisted‚ funny‚ high-octane adventure‚ director Matthew Vaughn brings Kick-Ass to the big screen.

Kick-Ass tells the story of average teenager Dave Lizewski (Aaron Johnson)‚ a comic-book fanboy who decides to take his obsession as inspiration to become a real-life superhero. As any good superhero would‚ he chooses a new name -- Kick-Ass -- assembles a suit and mask to wear‚ and gets to work fighting crime. There's only one problem standing in his way: Kick-Ass has absolutely no superpowers.

His life is forever changed as he inspires a subculture of copy cats‚ is hunted by assorted violent and unpleasant characters‚ and meets up with a pair of crazed vigilantes‚ including an 11-year-old sword-wielding dynamo‚ Hit Girl (Chloe Moretz) and her father‚ Big Daddy (Nicolas Cage).
