Sadly though, it was not playing so we had limited choices and ended up watching 'Kick Ass'. I was honestly just expecting it to be hilariously bad (Nicholas Cage as a superhero...the Cage in anything is a laugh!) but I ended up loving it so much. I can't really explain this, other than by saying that I think I've always had a bit of a superhero complex. Its not something that I think about very much, but watching young Chloe Mortez with all of her amazing martial arts and weapon skills really revived that side of me. I wish I was a cool 13 year old killer, ha ha! It was funny both intentionally and inadvertently I'm sure, but intriguing in a Kill Bill meets Spider man sort of way. Obviously its not the same as Kill Bill, but the action sequences had a similar feel.
With that, I thought I would share with you a bit of embarrassment, of which this movie reminded me. This past term at school we had to turn ourselves into a superhero as an assignment. The above is what I came up with. I am probably the geekiest looking hero ever, but I'm okay with that!
