I also enjoyed Kick Ass 2 but for me it had lost a certain something the first one had.
The first one was fun and cute and fresh.
Not only is this sequel a big mess, it has also lost the novelty of the original movie.
Furthermore, Chloe is a teenager now.
It just not the same having Hit Girl being older.
Watching her kick ass when she was a little girls was cute.
Watching her kick ass now as a teenager is the same as watching a High School movie like Mean Girls.
Considering the Mean Girls subplot that was inserted into the storyline of this sequel, this could had been Mean Girls 3 (there was a made for TV Mean Girls 2 sequel).
Remember the first scene of Mindy and Nic together in the first movie when Nic shot her?
That scene really took me by surprise and it was a definitely a BIG "WTF?" moment!
Now you have the same scene with Mindy and Dave and you knew what was coming this time.
