I just wish they don't forget that what made Kick Ass so great was not primarily the violence but the clever humour.

Obviously, can't speak to the film's humor compared to the first one, but I can say that he was wrong about the rating. I don't know why he would think a major film like this would limit itself to a small audience that an NC-17 rating would bring. Anyway, it got Rated R for strong violence, pervasive language, crude and sexual content, and brief nudity.

 

The fact that it has Jim Carrey in it suggests it won't be funny at all though  :/

I'm not watching any of those clips. lol. Sometimes too much ruins it for me during watching the film. 

So... Gettin a group together for this movie? lol


 

haha love Ella Purnells line at the end of the clip 'Im soaked'
Yep, this movie is gunna own :)

 

The clip/song itself sucks, you might wanna mute it apart from the talking bits

Hope this isnt gonna be a let down, seems to be hyped too much!

reviews from advanced screenings in Toronto suggest its better than the first. (and reading the comic and knowing the storyline already, I totally agree)

    • Too soon, I'm still not over this death!
    • Normally, I admit when a title is clickbait (unfortunately, it's become somewhat necessary in AI-dominated news sections today), but in this case, all supported versions is implied and doesn't need to be spelled out in the title. Of course, I'm covering a Patch Tuesday update but that is only available to supported Windows SKUs. All our coverage relates to supported Windows software and SKUs only unless we expressly state that it's "unsupported", "unofficial", or "third-party". I'm sorry, but supported/official SKUs don't need to be spelled out as such in every Neowin headline.
    • ALL versions or ALL SUPPORTED versions? Neowin does it again.
    • But the reality is it will work for people's needs, and they don't care about the technology that makes it. Clearly not everyone's needs, but that low end space where personal laptops were only used to type emails, watch content and browse websites, but they didn't want to do that on a small screen device. Heck, writing that out I can now see the connection and reason it'll do so well. Apple is about experience. If the experience is bad, they don't release it. Low end Windows laptop manufacturers up until this point have not taken that into consideration ever before, so slow laggy usage with brittle slimey plastic shells were common. I hope that the low end space at least creates better physical products that last a bit longer, and if Microsoft get their act together, they could also have a solid OS on such low end hardware that would actually make the experience work for what the hardware was intended for. The fact that the CPU is a "cellphone", sorry mobile phone processor is irrelevant. It's about the experience, and so far, that sounds quite solid.
