I will start off by saying that I loved the first Kick-Ass. It was funny, ultra-violent, and portrayed the dangers of being a superhero very well. You get more of that here, but this one focuses more on superhero teams, and supervillain teams. It also focuses on Hit-Girl´s identity crisis as she goes into high school.
I will say that I really enjoyed this movie, but I still think the first one is better., and here is why. During the action scenes in this one, I noticed that there was some shaky cam used from time to time. The weird thing is that most of the action scenes are well shot, but suddenly the shaky cam starts, and then it goes back to normal. Another issue I had was Jim Carrey. He was great in the movie, but was not given as much screen time as I wanted. The comedy is still great in this one, and I really enjoyed the Hit-Girl storyline. All of the actors do a great job too, and are even better here than in the last one.
So while not as awesome as the first one, I still really enjoyed Kick-Ass 2. It is filled with violence, comedy, and the villains in this movie are just really awesome. This movie is a blast from start to finish, and I would definitely recommend that everyone checks it out... except kids (and my showing was filled with little kids). I´m giving Kick-Ass 2 4/5
