His heroic antics having inspired a citywide wave of masked vigilantes, Kick-Ass (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) joins their ranks to help clean up the streets, only to face a formidable challenge when the vengeful Red Mist (Christopher Mintz-Plasse) transforms himself into the world's first super villain in this sequel written and directed by Jeff Wadlow (Never Back Down). Dave/Kick-Ass and Mindy/Hit Girl (Chloë Grace Moretz) are about to graduate high school and become a crime-fighting duo when their noble plans are foiled by Mindy's strict parents. Now, as Mindy hangs up her Hit Girl uniform and navigates the treacherous high-school social scene, Kick-Ass begins patrolling the streets with Justice Forever, a fearless group of urban watchdogs fronted by former mob thug Colonel Stars and Stripes (Jim Carrey). They've got the criminal element on the run when Chris D'Amico lays his Red Mist persona to rest, and reemerges as The Mother F**ker, a powerful criminal mastermind with a loyal legion of henchmen. The Mother F**ker is determined to avenge the death of his late father, who previously perished at the hands of Kick-Ass and Hit Girl. Now, as The Mother F**ker and his minions begin targeting the members of Justice Forever, Hit Girl realizes that the only way to save Kick-Ass and his new friends is to emerge from her forced retirement, and fight back with everything she's got. John Leguizamo, Donald Faison, Morris Chestnut, and Robert Emms co-star. ~ Jason Buchanan, RoviMovie Title : Kick-Ass 2

Review For Movie Kick-Ass 2
If it works at all, fitfully, it's because of the precociously talented and in-control Moretz, who basically carries the entire film on her own small shoulders.Stephen Whitty-Newark Star-Ledger
Sequel offers exactly the blend of R-rated nastiness and candy-colored action fans expect.
John DeFore-Hollywood Reporter
What was once shocking now just elicits a shrug.
Chris Nashawaty-Entertainment Weekly
The year's most unpleasant movie.
Adam Nayman-Globe and Mail
The savvy wit and inspiration on display in the first film is absent in this dumbed-down, warmed over retread. Consider its ass kicked.
Adam Graham-Detroit News
"Kick-Ass 2" can't decide what it wants to be when it grows up: a vessel for unhinged vengeance and destruction or a meta-critique of those same impulses.
Ann Hornaday-Washington Post
Offers a convenient punching bag for critics who want to equate the youth violence in movies with its manifestations offscreen, when teenagers probably represent the ideal audience to both enjoy and see through this contradictory, nuance-free cartoon.
John Beifuss-Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN)
It definitely finds a few interesting places to go.
Rob Vaux-Mania.com
If the whole of Kick-Ass 2 had been 'Hit Girl Goes to High School', it would have been great.
Rima Sabina Aouf-Concrete Playground
A cancerous pretender promising something different but only offering up crass costumed zeroes
Cameron Williams-The Popcorn Junkie
Extreme violence and outrageous comedy form an uneasy alliance in this outwardly enthusiastic but inwardly ugly comic book sequel.
Corey Hall-Metro Times (Detroit, MI)
Keeps the manic mix of R-rated comedy and action seen in Matthew Vaughn's original while omitting the terrible attempts at shock-drama that polluted Mark Millar's comic.
Liam Maguren-Flicks.co.nz
These filmmakers have ended up with a sequel that lacks the freshness of the original film. It brings nothing new to the table, satisfied with simply throwing these characters together again and hoping that everything will turn out for the best.
Jeff Beck-Examiner.com
Like many sequels, 'Kick-Ass 2' falls short of the original. It fails to achieve that delicate balance, achieved so well in the original film, of comedy and violence.
Robert Roten-Laramie Movie Scope
Easily one of the year's worst films.
Bob Grimm-Tucson Weekly
In the end, Kick-Ass 2 just kicks the audience's arse too much, and with too much unnecessary force...
Erin Free-FILMINK (Australia)
So long as Chloë Grace Moretz's murderous Mindy Macready - aka Hit Girl - remains in the limelight, I'll take little umbrage with the bastardisation of the comics upon which these movies are based.
Simon Miraudo-Quickflix
Loses all of its edge while anxiously trying to convince the audience it's still a subversive bit of meta-superhero cinema.
Felix Vasquez Jr.-Cinema Crazed
Isn't it time Hit-Girl got a movie of her own? She's still the best thing about this franchise.
Scott Nash-Three Movie Buffs
A movie that resembles Bugsy Malone with real weapons.
Philip French-Observer [UK]
If Kick-Ass 2 manages to distinguish itself at all, it's by establishing a new standard for the level of disinterest a film can show in its title character.
Curtis Woloschuk-Willamette Week
Silly, ridiculous, violent and worthy.
Widgett Walls-Needcoffee.com
A relentlessly-gruesome bloodfest of no redeeming value that at least Jim Carrey had the decency to 'fess up about.
Kam Williams-AALBC.com
An otherwise standard action film with B-movie feel, Kick-Ass 2 is a 'good' but not 'great' followup to the surprisingly smart, stylish and witty original.
Kofi Outlaw-ScreenRant
This film will find its audience, no doubt, but here's hoping the stunts on display find no copycats.
David Kaplan-Kaplan vs. Kaplan
Flimsy and floundering, one of the stupidest sequels ever.
Susan Granger-SSG Syndicate
