Kickass Film Review
Dec. 4th, 2010 11:43 pmMindy aka Hit Girl is my new fav super-hero. 12 years old, 4 feet tall, and able to take out an entire room full of goons.
In case you're curious? Just finished watching Kickass which is a brilliant riff on the whole superhero genre, written by and based on Mark Millar's comic of the same name. Also has a great soundtrack. It basically subverts and makes fun of the entire superhero genre, referencing everything from X-men to Runaways. (I include Sin City and Batman in that as well.)
It is a bit violent though - although more cartoon violence than anything else. (ie. if you can handle the violence in flicks like History of Violence, Dark Knight, The Walking Dead, and Supernatural - you can handle this. It's bang bang, blood splatter, dead. )
( vague plot spoilers for Kickass )
Still have the cough, dang it. It's happens after I've talked to someone for a while or laughed or clear my throat. Otherwise, I don't cough. Going to call the doctor on Monday and see if I can get an appointment within the next two weeks - maybe get Advair (prescription only, not available otherwise - I know, I checked) and anti-boitics or at the very least an allergist referral. I already have the humidifier. Tomorrow - off looking at apartments again. I made the mistake of calling them flats to my realtor and she got confused.
