It's been done, with a repetition of the two-part scheme, with the first part being black comedy (with tragic undertones) showing just how incompetent and selfish the protagonist's motivations are, and the second showing him having matured and having acquired genuine altruistic motives (and still being tragic). It's called Kick-Ass and Kick-Ass 2.
You mean the graphic novels, right? I saw the movie but didn't read them.
You'd be in for a surprise or two...
I know that they changed several things, like the real past of "Big Daddy"...

Indeed. Much of the movie is about Hit Girl being a badass; I think the graphic novel plays it for tragedy, though.
