For once a superhero movie characterised by dayglo colours and dynamic narrative rather than hushed voices and morose posturing; and with a wittily assembled collage of familiar themes on the soundtrack.
A fanciful mixture of the tongue-in-cheek and queasily realistic bloodshed; poor Kick-Ass (wearing a - probably deliberately - stupid-looking costume evidently not the work of Edna Mode, and who's "only superpower was being invisible to girls") is totally outclassed by ferocious, potty-mouthed moppet Hit-Girl Chloe Grace Moretz (wearing what looks like one of the wigs worn by the Moonbase girls in 'U. F. O.').
