Oh Yeah, look at this

Now in France they say the word stick like this...

Ba-ton

We have some of Kick-Ass' batons.

We're gonna show you what they can do.

Go ahead boys.

In America we say stick like this...

Baseball Bat

For hittin' knees..

hands...

It's also good for hittin' balls.

We don't do 'em individually, we do 'em all together.

Gentlemen please. Yeah.

Oh this looks very painful...

Due to the distressing nature of the images we are unable to

broadcast the events currently streaming live on the Internet

No No

Misguided miscalculations suggest that this may be some kind of hoax or publicity

stunt. It is now clear that the hostages are in genuine danger

That all signs point to the intentions to stage

a live execution in the next few minutes

Even with my metal plates and my

f***ed up nerve endings,

I've gotta tell ya,

that hurt.

the silent killer

But not half as much as the idea of

leaving everything behind.

Katie

My dad.

Todd and Marty

And all the

things I'd never do.

Like learn to drive.

Or see what me and Katie's

kids would look like.

Or find out

what happened on Lost.

And if you're reassuring yourself

that I'm gonna make it through this since I'm talking to you now,

quit being such a smart ass.

Hell dude. You've never seen Sin City?

Sunset Boulevard? American Beauty?

And this,... for all you brave men out there...

is fire.

Fire, Fire's good

Fire is our friend

Gentlemen

Time to die.

What the...

Find me a lighter

I've got it

No!

Take cover, child!

Now switch to Kryptonite!

Eject, 2 rounds and relay!

Show's over mother-f***ers.

Yeah!

I think I'm in love with her, dude.

She looks like she's about 11 years old, but...

I can wait. I solemnly vow to save myself for her.

I can see that this can be really difficult for you.

Are you OK?

Yeah.

Whoa

Good job.

I'm so proud of you, baby doll

Are you OK?

Yes

Getting shot, daddy, hurt a lot more than when you did it.

That's because I used low-velocity rounds, child.

You're the kindest daddy in the whole world

I just...

I love you

I love you too, daddy

I love you, dad

good night

What's your name?

I mean, your real name

A super hero never reveals her true

identity.

What!? Look, you can't go on...

However you

lived before...

It's over.

Is there anybody else?

Any other family, or?

I can take care of myself.

I saved your sorry ass!

what about money?

Alright, cause you've got to think long-term

I've got three million dollars in a

suitcase!

That long-term

enough for ya?

It's not all about the money,

I owe you

If not for you, I'd be dead.

if it wasn't for you

my dad wouldnt be.

Look

pack up whatever you

need and we'll go back to my place.

I just need to clean up, I think?

Woah. I meant, like pajamas

and clothes and stuff. You can't take that stuff to my house.

You know what my dad would have really

wanted?

He would have wanted me to

finish what we started.

And that's exactly what I'm gonna do.

Is this Frank D'Amico's place?

All that security

Are you crazy?

My mom already died for nothing.

So, I'm sure as hell not gonna let my dad die for

nothing too.

You can't do this on your own.

Exactly

You wanna deal with owing

my dad?

Then shut the hell up and

pick your weapon.

Is that what I think it is?

Damn straight.

Oh you better start reading the instructions,

'cause you're gonna be using it in about five minutes.

Yo listen up, you've got 5 minutes and

I want you back on your post

and don't leave a mess

Everything okay?

Things alright, boss

Can't believe I got my gun back

Look at that

You know it's not that..

(Knocking)

Let her in

That's a little kid

What's the matter with you?

You okay, sweetheart?

No, I lost my mommy and daddy.

she lost her mommy and daddy

You wanna use my cell phone?

Now can you remember the number?

Had I ever been a real superhero?

The most I'd ever had to offer the world was good intentions

and a slightly elevated capacity to take a kicking.

With no power comes no

responsibility.

Except

that wasn't true.

sh*t

Hey I'm in here come help me out!

Wait, f*** this! And, everybody's dead!

She's behind the counter, she's out of ammo.

Do you think they got her?

If they didn't he will.

Get out there

Now?

Yeah, now

What the f*** is going on?

We got her trapped she's still alive

So what the hell you guys waiting for?

Go get her-

Go ahead-.

I ain't got no f***ing gun. I'm not going in there.

Do it now

Come on

F*** this sh*t.

I'm getting the Bazooka

Bazooka?

Bazooka

Whoa hold it. It's only me boss. Everything is under control.

Under control?

You're grabbing a f***ing Bazooka you dumb ass.

Sir? -

Do it -

I always wanted to say this...

say Hello to my little friend

(Glory, Glory Halleluah song in background)

Holy sh*t

That is one weird sounding Bazooka

Stu!

F***!

Get out

Play time's over, kid.

I never play

Oh really?

Ruin my business, Huh?

I'll kill every single f***ing guy or gal in my way

I wish my son was just like you.

It is time for family reunion

Hey

Why don't you pick on someone

your own size.

You Ok?

Yeah

Time to go home

Thanks, Kick-Ass.

My daddy...

He would have

been proud of both of us.

Dave

Dave Lizewski.

I know that, dumbass

Mindy

Mindy MacReady

Bye

Mindy moved in with Marcus

and he enrolled her at my school

Bye -

Good luck -

first school she'd ever been to

on the promise that I'd look out for her.

Hey

"Not that she needed me too".

Hey. New kid.

Hi

Lunch money.

Now.

(The screams of the two bully's getting their ass kicked)

Kick-Ass was gone,

but not forgotten.

And my world is much safer

with all the new superheroes.

They said I was their inspiration

But all I did was make a door into a world

I dreamed about, since I was little kid.

A world full of super heroes, huh?

like a great man once said...

Wait'll they get a load of me.
