I know that I'm supposed to like this movie. I'm something of a comic book movie apologist. For crying out loud, I've even defended The Green Lantern in more than one semi-heated debate.
When this movie came out in 2010, I saw the trailers and thought it looked pretty good. I definitely wanted to see it, but, truth be told, a super-violent super hero movie can be a tough sell with the wife. That being the case, I just barely got around to seeing Kick Ass today, fully expecting to enjoy it.
But, I didn't.
It might have been the fact that it was poorly made, rife with tone and pacing inconsistencies. But, let's be honest, I've overlooked that before. No, the biggest reason I didn't like Kick Ass was that it was morally repugnant.
