10 Disturbing Consequences Of Kick-Ass 2's Ending

8. Hit-Girl's Completely Unprepared For Life By Herself

Kick Ass 2 Chloe Moretz Ostensibly, Hit-Girl left the city to protect Marcus. You can see the earlier point ten for the skewed logic behind that one, but ok, she is only 15 and can still make idiotic decisions, regardless of her ability to kill rooms full of people with only her eyebrows. But again, she's only 15, and not a regular 15 €“ she's been sheltered her whole life, and clearly has trouble in the real world, as showcased by her travails at High School. OK, I suppose you can argue that she came out on top in her Mean Girls-esque spat, but social humiliation is just one problem the world's going to throw at her, and all these problems will be exacerbated by the fact that for the first time in her life, she's completely by herself. There's no Dave, no Marcus and no Big Daddy to offer her life advice, so when she does come up against something unfamiliar and scary, she doesn't have anyone to stop her feeling so overwhelmed. Because again, she's 15, and though she knows her way around Indonesian throwing knives, a good portion of Kick-Ass 2 was centred around showing us just how out of her depth Mindy is in real life.
