Great review! I am definitely seeing it this weekend. I was going to anyway but the stellar review cements it for me. It sounds smart, funny, and action-packed.

Great review! I am definitely seeing it this weekend. I was going to anyway but the stellar review cements it for me. It sounds smart, funny, and action-packed.
Wow an A from Rob?!! I was gonna see this anyway cuz Gauley and others has been raving about it for weeks now, but after this review, i might just see it tonight!!
Great review Rob (not just cause I agree Kick-Ass is a wonderful flick) but I enjoyed you tackling the Hit girl "controversy" that shouldn't exist, you did it with poise, and it's an intelligent argument to those rallying against her character.
I love the aliteration (did I use that word correctly?) to Mickey in the Sorcerer's Apprentice.
This movie is great for a number of reasons, Rob hit upon most of them, but is also great because it knows what it wants to be, and is what it says it is.
KICK-ASS!
p.s. I didn't expect Rob to rate it so high, but it definitely deserves it
So now Rob is a good critic cause he gave this an A? Guess all those insults he got over time were unwarranted, lol, wow what a reversal of opinion
Hit Girl being young makes us sick for being violent? Rage? I don't know about you, but after seeing the scene where she takes out the roomful of thugs I was as giddy as a schoolgirl. That scene was awesome and I can't wait to see more Hit Girl violence!!!
I can count on one hand how many reviews of Rob's I have agreed with, but this is one of them. He pretty much hit all the right points. I even agree about the feeling a little uneasy with Hit Girl. Don't get me wrong, I loved every knife throwing gun totting second of it, but there was also a sadness. She reminded me of
X-23, except that her father did love her. She's kind of the most tragic character in Kick-Ass.
Cage was great as Big Daddy. At some points even kind of creepy, but awesome nonetheless.
Definitely a full A grade
Wiseguy,
It's good to see your biased disdain for Kick-Ass has also rendered your ability to read useless.
I NEVER said in this review that "Rob is a good critic" and niether did anyone else. What was said was this was a good review, well written and not biased (as sometimes Rob's reviews are, at least they seem that way). He brought up good points and didn't just say "It's good movie" or "It was awful"
I DON'T agree with Rob's revies most of the time, WHICH is why I pointed out the things I liked about this review, and didn't say "I like this review, cause I liked this movie"
Also, I think we can all admit Rob is a hardass, he rarely gives an A grade, and when he does, it's usually warranted.
c'mon! Read the post Wiseguy... ;)
Go see the movie Wise, It's not Avatar, it's not tryng to take away Cameron's big Blue glory, but it's awesome, you're allowed to like more than one movie ;)
Dude, You all but mentioned my name, AND Like I said this review was well written and without any obvious bias. See the clash of the titans review if you want to see what I'm talking about.
I don't like all of Robs Reviews, BUT this was well written, thats not ass kissing thats the truth and my opinion. Why the Fukk would I kiss a guys ass who can do absolutely nothing for me, and I don't even know. Thats ignorant.
It's funny that when people agree they can give compliments? Okay Thats pretty much everyone in the world. Hell I despise 90% of garbage that comes out of Bill O'Reilly's mouth, BUT if he makes a good point that I agree with (which happens from time to time) I will give him credit for it, I WON'T argue for the sake of arguing. I DO think Rob grades movies and shows VERY harshly, and what that says to me is that this is a damn fine movie if he's gonna give it an A
So If I don't like a review, and then like a review I should stay in the mindset of the review I didn't like? Is that what your saying? Thats the stupid close mindedness that is killing this country.
Yeah I'm a little pissed, I don't kiss ANYONES ass, so stuff it.
And yeah I brtought up your golden god Cameron, you defended him for months against people and promoted him as hard as I'm promoting Kick-Ass, but I never gave you shit about it. I recognized you really liked Avatar (even before it's release) and it actually got me more excited to see it. Instead of picking at your love for him.
Matthew Vaughn does a superb job directing the hilarious action-packed...
Agree with this review. Saw it and it was surprising how good it was. Nic Cage (hate to say it) and Hit Girl steal this movie. Good stuff.
