Running Time : 113 mins

High school comic fan Dave Lizewski (Johnson) wants nothing more than to be popular, so he decides to become a super hero in spite oft he fact that he has no special abilities to speak of. As he delves further into the world of the masked avenger, he meets a father daughter team of do-gooders known as Big Daddy (Cage) and Hit-Girl (Moretz) as well as coming face to face with the evil criminal underbelly of the city in the form of Frank D-Amico (Strong).

This is by far and away the best comic book adaptation in a very long time. Even though Johnson isn't the best actor, that doesn't matter when you have a supporting cast including Nicolas Cage in his best acting role in decades, Chloe Moretz as the irrepressible Hit-Girl and even Christopher Mintz-Plasse and Mark Strong as the villains of the piece make this an unforgettable comedy action adventure.
