Kick Ass gets a full trailer.


We've finally got a green-band, full-length trailer for the allegedly fantastic Kick-Ass. Nothing we haven't seen before, just a bit of first-act exposition, a look at Mark Strong's lead bad guy, more Nicolas Cage, and just a token amount of character development. I'm not getting much of a buzz from these trailers, although this may be the kind of film that just can't advertise its R-rated humor and/or is refusing to spoil the best bits in the trailer (they couldn't find a better bumper gag?). Regardless, you can't accuse Lionsgate of not pushing this one as hard as possible. I presume they'll start screening the film right after the Oscars.

  2. I'm glad I came back to watch this trailer, it looks like a fun movie. Could it be a non-comic live action superhero story that works? I suppose I may find out eventually when it is released on Netflix.
