I really enjoyed Kick Ass, the first movie. So, I really looked forward to the sequel. It had Jim Carrey and most of the original cast. However, the more I found out about the movie, the less interested I was. I found out that Matthew Vaughn, the director of the first one, was not directing the second one. Jim Carrey refused to promote it. Every now and then, there would be something that would make me less excited for the movie. So, by the time I saw this movie, I had low expectations.
I would say it met those expectations. I enjoyed the movie, but it was not nearly as fun as the first. I hate when movies tend to up the violence when doing a sequel. It usually means that the story is not that good. I'll admit the first movie was very violent, but I didn't enjoy the violence in this one as much. I think it was because it lacked the story behind the violence.
There is an extra scene after the credits, so if you see this, make sure you stick around (maybe). It leaves it open for a possible sequel; however, I don't think I would want to see another sequel.
