It was an English film. IIRC Allan Tudyk was in the cast.

I can offer nothing in regard to "Kick-A$$"'s box performance, but I can say that I see no need whatsoever to have remade "Death at a Funeral".

Perhaps the fanboy audience that was panting for Matthew Vaughn's reinvention of the superhero movie Kick-Ass was just too young to get in. The R-rated movie has been well-received by critics, but grossed less than $8 million Friday night, putting its weekend gross closer to the $20 million territory, rather than the $25-$30 million that many were predicting. The similarly R-rated Death at a Funeral, also struggled to lure an audience, even though Roger Ebert, calling it the "funniest comedy since The Hangover." The film may have grossed less than $6 million on Friday, putting its three-day gross at a likely $17 million.

The above supports my view that audiences will not support anything spoofing (or exposing the lunacy) of people fighting crime in their underwear.

Below is my review of "Death at a Funeral."
