Being 13 the movie is an epic thrilling adventure. If your kids are allowed to here extremely bad words even kids will love it adults teens will love it. Everything was great directing and acting and Chloe was an Amazing Hit-Girl. A must see? YES!!! It will blow your mind away.

Barring the element of surprise from 1st time,it was even better! Miss Chloe(hit girl) is going to knock our socks off in the future! Really need to mention the soundtrack again,it was like it's own character. Story is fun and meaningful at the same time...something original,which is hard to come by in an era of sequels and remakes. Mr.Cage and Mr.Strong handled supporting roles with impact that incited deep empathy,yet at the same time gave full stage to their younger co-stars. This is not my kind of movie...at all..popcorn type favorites are GWTW, Donnie Brascoe,and more recently,Remember Me and It's Complicated.I guess i just want it to be clear that this movie is a brilliantly executed myriad of talent and thought. It made me forget about the things I normally criticize like the teacher fantasy,etc.Language and violence from children is hard to watch...but i just realize it's fiction and their jobs....cause anything less would have made this markedly inferior.

...so much so that it obliterates any of the normal objections I have for some R rated material. I don't know if i am open minded enough to see my children in roles like this,but I sure am glad some parents were,because this is at the top of my list for pure cinematic brainstorm. Oh,and I have never had the soundtrack of a movie make such an impact on me. And I am pretty attuned to that venue of film-making. I think it is best to go in not know anything,except not to bring any children, and let this piece of art blow you away..All actors spot on...lead admittedly didn't have alot to make him stand out,but that's who Kick *** is. Hit Girl,Big Daddy and Mark Strong (forget character name) were award winning exceptional and brave from what I know now must have been controversial roles to accept.From the kidnapping to the end,you will have to remind yourself to breathe.violence/language/mild sexual

You will be shocked,you may want to get judgmental,but if you are honest,you will applaud the work and intelligence in this unexpected success.Can't for the life of me figure out what happened at box office this weekend. Spread the word to true cinephiles.... this visceral shock of a movie warrants theater viewing. Extra points to Nicholas Cage and Mark Strong for their vivid interpretations of respective characters,as well as 'framing' the younger actors performances so succinctly. Very offensive in language and violence area if you have concerns.However,in this movie,none of it was obligatory or distractring. It was needed to convey what the comic and film were all about.GO-SEE-KICKASS-TODAY.

What the heck happened to the popularity of this movie.Judging from these reviews and EVERYBODY I know,this movie totally rocks. Now,hear my guess,and see if you agree... I think the word is out that there is extremely hard language and violence involving ooooh...a little girl. Ok,yet the same people who shun this movie for this reason have no problem with the fact that there are movies out that INFLUENCE little girls in life,like thinking sex is fine right away with anyone,or that they have to have perfect body types and dress like little streetwalkers to get attention or that talking like a mechanic is pro forma for young ladies these days. And my favorite,drugs and drinking are simply a right of passage. Where is the consistency???? AM I WRONG? would love some ideas from other fandango friends.......
