Deadpool

Wade wasn't kidding: it's a love story. Thank God. As a shoot-em-up comedy/parody, Deadpool willingly degrades itself with his dozens of pop culture references that threaten to turn it into just instant diarrhea at several points. But it always tightens the screws at the right moment, successfully balancing humor on the edge of the most trivial prepubescent enthusiasm, and everything is fine again. But it wouldn't work without the magical Morena Baccarin. Her first real escape from the world of TV series suits her incredibly well, and while everyone is bowing before the unexpectedly huge financial success of the red madman, especially Ryan Reynolds, I wish her success above all.

Aside from a certain mono-theme that gets tiresome by the end, what I actually find most frustrating about it is that Deadpool is only childish but rarely really smart. I'd have liked a few more action-planning sketches, but also more questions about whether the studio really doesn't have the rights to more mutants. It reminded me a lot of Kick-Ass 2. I raise my middle finger seven times out of ten. (03/04/2016)

For me, a bit mixed feelings. In terms of humour and entertainment, Deadpool delivers exactly what it promised, but the action is unfortunately average and not much to look forward to. Not only is the lower budget quite evident in places, but the cinematography is so chaotic that newcomer Tim Miller could shake hands with Olivier Megaton. The fast editing simply spoils the impression and is so bad that one doesn't even notice the blood properly, which I consider a big drawback. The villain is mediocre, but that's classic Marvel stuff. I was also slightly annoyed by the frequent flashbacks. I liked the seductive Morena Baccarin and the many references to all sorts of movies whether it's the X-men franchise, or even Taken or Blade. The stylish opening credits and an unusual meet-and-greet scene are also a delight:) I don't know if I wasn't in the right frame of mind, but I didn't feel the right excitement and adrenaline rush that I usually experience with movies like this, but I'll give Deadpool another chance. It's worth going to the cinema, but if you've watched the trailer more than twice, you won't be surprised by too many things in the film. Something above 70% (02/11/2016)

After I watched the trailer for the first time, I didn’t have much faith in Deadpool. However, the ratings at this site have outright made me go to the cinema to see for myself. The result is that Deadpool did exactly what it was supposed to do. It was a little awkward at the beginning. After half an hour, I didn’t know what to think, but as soon as Deadpool started to crack the one-liners, it was absolutely unparalleled and he kept firing them like bullets. At that moment, I was enjoying every possible and impossible character of this comic universe and I was thinking about whether anyone will even appreciate this movie in 20, maybe 30 years. In the end, it doesn’t even matter, because revenue is getting generated now and it is all-telling at the moment. (02/18/2016)

It's a good movie. Cool plot, nice narration, good fights, some good lines. Can't say I was laughing my ass off though. And I'm a little disappointed because that's what I was expecting. On the other hand, I got an original love story that wasn't that romantic, but still had something to it. 3.5 stars. (02/19/2016)
