The problem is that the premise of the strife is absolutely ridiculous and there are points at which you feel like you’re watching a Zac Efron-starrer (not that I’d know anything about how that looks, *ahem*).Īaron Taylor-Johnson as the titular character is likeable enough, but just doesn’t match up to his own performance in the first movie. I’d have loved to see the origin story of Dr Gravity (Faison) or how Night Bitch (Lindy Booth) transformed into a vigilante, but instead the focus is on the internal strife of Hit Girl. Though the rest of the eclectic cast has some fantastic actors, right from Donald Faison (Turk from Scrubs) to Steven Mackintosh ( Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels)to Clark Duke ( Greek), they’re given very little to do. Had he been given a central role, this may well have been the turning point in his declining career and would certainly have made Kick-Ass 2 a far better film. Jim Carrey is phenomenal as Colonel Stars and Stripes, but his role is a glorified cameo. She is undoubtedly the spunkiest superhero that’s ever been conceived, and possibly the best female superhero that’s made it to the big screen.īut wherever Moretz is absent in the film, there is a gaping void.

Because that’s how awesome she is.Īnd she steals the show in Kick-Ass 2 again and it is only the weight of her awesomeness that carries the film through. In Kick-Ass, her character of Hit Girl – a foul-mouthed, 11-year-old supergirl – caused a lot of controversy, but also made most fanboys all over the world count the days until she turns 18, so they could legally have a crush on her. Often, she is the best thing about the movies she stars in. Hopefully they won't sexualize Wonder Woman, too.At 16, Moretz has had a career of ten years already with directors like Martin Scorsese, Tim Burton, Kimberley Pierce, Marc Webb and Matthew Vaughn.
CHLOE MORETZ KICK ASS 2 MOVIE
I hear there's a Wonder Woman movie coming up. Hopefully, there will be some cool female superhero movies in the future. "Whenever there's a female superhero, it's always a more sexual plotline rather than seeing an actual character onscreen. The actress went on to discussed how female superheros are depicted in movies. The film did poorly in theaters, presumably because it was leaked a few weeks before it's official release. This isn't the first time piracy has been blamed for poor box office numbers, The Expendables 3 most recently felt the effects of the crime. It's all about the numbers in the theater." If you want more than one movie, everyone has to go and see movies at the cinema. We need to prove to the distributors that we can make money from a third and a fourth movie - but because it didn't do so well, we can't make another one.

Kick-Ass 2 was one of the number one pirated movies of the year, but that doesn't help us because we need box office figures.

You make these movies for the fanboys, but nowadays everyone seems to pirate them rather than watch them in the movie theater. Hit-Girl was a very cool character, but I don't think there will be any more movies. "Sadly, I think I'm done with the character. She also reveals that she has no plans on returning if Kick-Ass 3 comes to fruition. During a recent interview, Chloe Moretz expressed her concern for online piracy, and claims that it is the sole reason why we will never see another Kick-Ass sequel.
