Matthew Vaughn's Kick-Ass (Lionsgate, 04.16.10) could be a gleefully smart and silly action-comedy a la Zombieland, or it could be a wreck. I haven't decided yet, but I'm kind of starting to warm up to it while remaining skeptical.
I know Harry Knowles loved it for what that's worth, but isn't everybody getting sick of Christopher Mintz-Plasse? This guy will be the next Anthony Michael Hall, you'll read about him in fifteen years in an article titled, "Where Are They Now?"
