By Marty Mulrooney

Kick-Ass 2

Kick-Ass 2 is an action-comedy film written and directed by Jeff Wadlow, and co-produced by Matthew Vaughn (who directed the original film Kick-Ass in 2010). Aaron Taylor-Johnson reprises his role as Dave Lizewski, a teenager who fights crime as his superhero alter ego Kick-Ass. After the events of the first film, ordinary citizens have been inspired to become real life ‘superheroes’, but former superhero Red Mist has other plans – to become the world’s first super villain, ‘The Motherfucker’!

FILM REVIEW – I Love You Phillip Morris

By Marty Mulrooney

Jim Carrey is, without question, an acquired taste. I still laugh at some of his older all-out comedy films (my inner child I guess), but truthfully, I preferred him in slightly more serious fare such as The Truman Show or Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind than I ever did watching him goof off. The trailer for I Love You Phillip Morris left me slightly confused as to which category this latest Carrey flick this would fall under. Having just got back from the cinema, I am surprised to say that the answer is neither.
