Let's be realistic.
I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.
The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
Tries so hard to be funny by using purile and dirty humour that is actually pretty sexist in a machismo kind of way. I presume that one reason this film is so popular just because Deadpool is pansexual, because it's so wonderful and "sexy" in the trendsetting banalities framework of the films like this rather than just being treated like a sexuality like any other. Another reason I hate this film is because it is being touted as though it is edgy and brilliant. Just because, what? There's a load of meaningless gore and sexual references? God, they must live sheltered lives with little juvenile minds. To call this film one big exercise in juvenility would be an insult to young people. Patronising would probably be better.
Deapool got justiice from the horrible way that x-men origins wolverine portrayed Wade Wilson/Deadpool and we finally got a movie that delivered on what we wanted from our favorite merc with a mouth and Ryan Reynolds is always going to be the actor that i associate with Deadpool and for good reasons. The cast has a amazing cast with Ryan Reynolds leading as Wade/ Deadpool and the energy that he brings to Wade and the comedy is why i love this movie and why the braking the 4th wall works. also in the cast is Ed Skrein who plays Ajax/ Francis and he is a villian you would not want to mess with and he works well as a villian and he is not boring or not interesting and that is very good to see for a villian like him in a x-men universe. Also in the cast is Karan Soni, Stefan Kapicic,Brianna Hildebrand,Morena Baccarin,T.J. Miller,Leslie Uggams and Gina Carano the cast is well balanced with lots of diferent talents thrown in. I love deadpool it is finally the movie that we all wanted and it satisfied the inner comic book movie nerd in me and was funny and filled with action and has plenty of 4th wall braking which is right for the character of deadpool and also the way that we get the origin of deadpool and it's a movie that i can watch mamy many times and still love
When Ryan Reynolds originally played dead pool in that wolverine movie I saw flashes of excellwnce, I have see all of Ryan Reynolds movies (Blade Trinity and 'Coolege' being the most obvious) and was screaming for a film to be made which was true to dead pool using Ryan Reynolds, i don't think they could have done the character any better justice, the films awesome, funny and simply true to character!!!
The movie was predictable and I'm confused as to why people love this so much. The comedy was cringey and cheesy, the ending was uninteresting, the only things I liked were the action scenes, since I love gore. People praise this movie for being violent and sexy, but that's just it. There's not much more. I did enjoy the movie, mostly the side characters and they did a good job of making the villain hateable (in a good way) but I have to say I was expecting a bit more. It was a good movie, just not a great one, and definitely overrated.
