Kick-Ass
tells the story of average teenager Dave Lizewski (Aaron Johnson), a
comic-book fanboy who decides to take his obsession as inspiration to
become a real-life superhero. As any good superhero would, he chooses a
new name - Kick-Ass - assembles a suit and mask to wear, and gets to
work fighting crime. There's only one problem standing in his way:
Kick-Ass has absolutely no superpowers.
His life is forever changed as he inspires a subculture of copy cats,
is hunted by assorted violent and unpleasant characters, and meets up
with a pair of crazed vigilantes, including an 11-year-old
sword-wielding dynamo, Hit Girl (Chloe Moretz) and her father, Big
Daddy (Nicolas Cage).
