[Kafriel]

Yesterday I watched FU and Kick-ass...FU was fun, with some hilarious moments, but generally too american/teen for my current tastes. Kick-ass, on the other hand, was awesome!

Spoiler for Kick-ass plot points,SPOOOOIIIILEEEEERS! and commentary:

I was surprised to find out that Daemon was an ex-con, ex-cop seeking vengeance and not the current chief of police trying to catch the big bad drug dealer. I also loved his 11-yo daughter, who kills in cold blood in all sorts of grotesque manners and eventually gets her ass handed to her by previously mentioned drug dealer, whose son is not as good, just "trying to take over family business" for no real reason. The hero got some development though, from a comic fan and a wannabe hero, he turned into a hospitalized wannabe superhero, realized how powerless he really was and bailed instead of becoming your "everyday hero". Here's hoping they do a kick-ass II...
