Kick-Ass 2 and the end of Dresden
Feb. 7th, 2017 07:49 pmI didn't have high hopes for Kick-Ass 2 as I'd seen the low ratings that it had received from audiences and critics alike. However, it turned out to be better than expected. Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Chloƫ Grace Moretz continue to be good as Kick-Ass/Dave and Hit Girl/Mindy. The plot continues to be a bit random and violent, but still watchable.
As for Dresden, I read the final two published books (Cold Days and Skin Game). I started the series in 2011 after a recommendation from
al_fruitbat and
_alanna and the warning that it was somewhat sexist. I've become hooked ever since and I've usually asked for a Dresden each birthday and Xmas. I think my favourite is still Summer Knight, but they're all pretty good and very addictive. The most recent two are pretty solid additions and I particularly liked the last one for the twist towards the end. Apparently he's writing a sixteenth (Peace Talks) but it won't be out for some time.
