If the subject character is interesting enough, if the obvious flaws in style can be ignored, then there is no reason why a film cannot be found to be entertaining in any circumstances; where a film that relies on fondness for pop culture entertainment, especially one aimed financially at a generation to the one that is being explored, asked to reminisce of the hours spent in pursuit of early gaming, that is where the whole edifice can collapse, come crashing down around the ears of memory.

Some sequels are so well worth waiting for that the time elapsed between films only adds to the excitement of what will unfold as you finally take your seat. Like the Back to the Future trilogy, these films only give the audience that extra tingle as they see characters they have loved come back and take their lives on yet another tantalising journey.

Kick Ass 2, Film Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * *

Cast: Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Chloe Grace Moretz, Jim Carrey, Clark Duke, Olga Kurkulina, Lindy Booth, John Leguizamo, Iain Glen, Morris Chestnut, Garrett M. Brown, Claudia Lee, Augustus Prew, Donald Faison, Danial Kaluuya, Tom Wu, Andy Nyman, Steven Mackintosh, Monica Dolan, Benedict Wong.

Sequels are almost inevitable, especially when the first film outing was seen as something new and exciting to grab the attention of those pleasantly surprised by what they see on the big screen. Sometimes though it may be better to leave the story where it ended, with the credits rolling and the audience giving plaudits. The news that Star Wars is to have yet another follow-on and with no conclusion in sight is one such film franchise, the other unfortunately is perhaps Kick-Ass 2.
