"This isn't a comic book! If you die, there is no do-over! There are no sequels!" — Dave Lizewski, aka Kick-Ass I lost track of how many times the characters in "Kick-Ass 2" reminded me that what I was watching was real, not just pretend — as if to give weight to the proceedings that did not otherwise exist. The joke, of course, is this is very much a comic book movie, superheroes get do-overs all the flipping time and it's a sequel that is trying so hard to convince us that sequels and reboots are soulless affairs with little point for existing.
