Having heard the controversy surrounding Kick-Ass due to its portrayal of graphic violence involving a minor I wasn't quite sure what to expect when I sat down to watch it for the first time. I'd actually delayed watching it over Christmas with the family as my father-in-law is particularly squeamish when it comes to the spilling of blood and guts. Not surprisingly the outcry by the film's few detractors is pretty unfounded when you consider the highly stylised violence in the broader context of the film, which clearly has a moral compass intent on telling the bizarre tale of Dave, a bullied teenage geek and would-be "Good Samaritan" who takes on the roll of a Costumed Vigilante to protect the innocent and exact revenge for those whose lives have been destroyed by an evil drug lord.
