Hit Girl & Big Daddy Inspired by Leon the Professional?

Kick Ass The Movie is considered to be fairly entertaining to an action movie buff like me. "Kick Ass" played by Aaron Johnson uses cosplay to inspire himself as a super hero ended up badly bashed by baddies...later realises that there is really a duo dressed in "Hero-apparels" that kick real baddies' asses...

After watching Kick Ass, I do have reminiscences of the following:

1) "Mystery Men" - The "cannot make it" heroes that eventually saves the day.

2)  "Kill Bill" - The gore & stuff by movie directed by Quentin Tarantino. With Uma Thurman as the killer bride who avenges (goes on a killing spree with her samurai knife) for the deaths of her unborn baby & all the people that was killed at her wedding by Assassin chief (ex-lover or something) - Bill (David Carradine, star of 'Kung Fu') who "hanged" himself in a luxury hotel suite in Bangkok.

3)  "Speed Racer"- Sound Track & the comic book effect.

4)   "Leon the Professional" - action thriller by French director Luc Besson. It stars Jean Reno, Gary Oldman, and a young Natalie Portman in her feature film debut. Somewhat Hit Girl (Chloe Moretz) & Big Daddy (Nicolas Cage) liken Mathilda (Natalie Portman) & Léon (Jean Reno). Similar to Hit Girl of Kick Ass, Mathilda pairs up with Leon to avenge the deaths of her loved ones.

Will Chloe Moretz be the next Natalie Portman...let's wait some years to find out : )

Below are trailers for Kick Ass the Movie & "Leon the Professional" :

    YES. I have thought this for a WHILE. I'm soooooo glad I'm not the only one to have seen it.

    The second time I watched 'Kick Ass' I had the same deja-vu. And I like the parallels because 'Leon' was very cool, too, and the girls both are gorgeous.

    Ok first of all Gorgeous?!?Aren't they too young for that type of lust from a man? No wonder daddy taught them to kill bad guys. Wish more dads would teach their daughters how to get rid of child molesters, rapists and pedophiles or other sick psychopaths...We could do with a serious campaign of society clean up don't you think?

    I think Hitgirl's wig being a Bob-cut like Mathilda's hair is also a visual que of the influence
