Kick Ass 1 🎥 2010 Movie Info

Plot Summary

Dave Lizewski is an awkward teenager who lives in Staten Island, New York with his widowed father. Inspired by comic books, Dave modifies a wetsuit to become a superhero but he is attacked and critically injured while confronting muggers. Having some bones replaced with metal, Dave gains an enhanced pain tolerance. A rumor spreads in school that Dave is gay; following this, he and his crush, Katie Deauxma, develop a close platonic friendship. Dave gains notoriety after rescuing a man from a gang attack. Calling himself “Kick-Ass”, he starts a Myspace account and is contacted by Katie, who is being harassed by a drug dealer.

Kick-Ass is outnumbered by the dealer and his henchmen but is saved by two costumed vigilantes, Big Daddy and his daughter Hit-Girl. Big Daddy is really Damon Macready, a former police officer who was framed by Mafia boss Frank D’Amico and imprisoned. His wife committed suicide, leaving behind their daughter, Mindy. Upon his release, Damon trained himself and Mindy to get revenge on D’Amico by sabotaging his drug operations and stealing his money. D’Amico targets Kick-Ass. His son, Chris, convinces him to lure Kick-Ass into a trap by posing as a vigilante called “Red Mist”. After meeting Kick-Ass, the plan goes awry when Red Mist finds his father’s warehouse in flames and his men killed.

A hidden camera reveals Big Daddy caused the carnage. After confessing to Katie that he is not gay, Dave is coaxed into another meeting with Red Mist, who tricks Kick-Ass into revealing Big Daddy and Hit-Girl’s location. Hit-Girl is seemingly shot dead while Kick-Ass and Big Daddy are captured by D’Amico’s men and torturously beaten on a live internet broadcast. Hit-Girl (who wore a bulletproof vest) raids the hideout and kills all of D’Amico’s men but is too late to save Big Daddy, who was set on fire and dies from his burns.
