The Monkeys Bum

Kick Ass - Saw "Kick Ass" on Monday night and it was a blast. Sure it had a lot of what you expect from a teen-oriented movie, but it's a much smarter picture than that. But mostly it had an 11 year superhero, Hit Girl, who kicked ass without taking names at all. When I grow up, I want to be like Hit Girl. There are many great moments where it is demonstrated to our hero, Kick Ass, why he shouldn't be a superhero, and one truly brilliant shiny moment where he shouts out why he should be. You can analyze this movie if you want to, but you don't have to. Sit back and enjoy it. It's a big ball-o-fun.

How To Train Your Dragon - Saw this one a couple weeks ago. Another movie that is nothing but pure fun. If you didn't love (or even like) this movie then you are the definition of curmudgeon.
