Publisher's Synopsis
Triple bill of adventure films. 'Kick-ass' (2010) stars Aaron Johnson as run-of-the-mill high school student Dave Lizewski, who, disillusioned with his humdrum existence, is inspired by the heroes of the comic books he loves to become a real-life superhero called 'Kick-Ass'. His first attempts to fight evil-doers meet with little success, but undeterred by his various setbacks Dave perseveres and eventually joins forces with mysterious vigilante Big Daddy (Nicolas Cage) and his daughter, Hit-Girl (Chloë Moretz), to take on local crime boss Frank D'Amico (Mark Strong). 'Scott Pilgrim vs. the World' (2010) stars Michael Cera as 22-year-old slacker Scott Pilgrim. When the drop-dead gorgeous Ramona V. Flowers (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) rollerblades into his life, Scott falls head over heels in love with her. There is, however, a major catch: Ramona's seven evil ex-boyfriends stand in his way, each one more violent and malicious than the last and all equally intent on obliterating her new love interest. 'The Green Hornet' (2011), an adaptation of the 1960s television series, follows Britt Reid (Seth Rogen), a spoiled playboy and son and heir to the biggest newspaper fortune in Los Angeles. The death of his father (Tom Wilkinson) alters Britt's perspective on life and he joins forces with company employee and martial arts expert Kato (Jay Chou) to fight crime across the city as masked superhero The Green Hornet. Armed with their super-powered automobile, The Black Beauty, the pair set out to take down the dastardly Chudnofsky (Christoph Waltz), a kingpin of the criminal underworld who plans to unite the various gangs of the city against The Green Hornet.
