Brad Pitt Greets and Signs at 'Kick-Ass' Premiere 
straitstimes - Brad Pitt delighted fans as he walked the red carpet for the London premiere of Kick-Ass - a tongue-in-cheek superhero film.
Pitt - who is one of the film's producers - signed autographs for fans before heading into the Odeon cinema in Leicester Square on Monday evening. His partner Angelina Jolie, currently shooting a film in Venice with actor Johnny Depp, did not attend the event.
Kick-Ass, based on a comic book of the same name, tells the story of a nerdy, crime-fighting teenager played by Aaron Johnson, who recently took on the role of John Lennon in Nowhere Boy.
He is joined by three other would-be heroes, including an 11-year-old girl, played by Chloe Moretz, and her father, played by Nicolas Cage.
Kick-Ass, which has a 15 rating, has come under fire for its violent scenes involving the young girl. 'Scenes of hilariously overstated violence perpetrated by an 11-year-old girl doubtless will discomfort many and incense quite a few,' film industry bible Variety said in its review of the film.
Asked about the criticism at the premiere, 13-year-old Moretz defended her role, saying: 'I'm not up for violence but just fun.' She added: 'My mum and dad read the script first before I did so they knew exactly what was in it.'
