I liked it more than the first film because it has less of the simple pubescent cheap humor. Deadpool 2 is incredibly off the rails, it has great teams and opposing players (Josh Brolin is fantastic as Cable, Zazie Beetz will win your heart 100% in the role of Domino), it once again doesn't have problems stirring up believable emotions nor undirected volleys of laughter, there are a lot of unexpected things going on in it (X-Force!!!!) and it's not awkward for even a second. That's great.

"If it ain't broke, don't fix it." This is exactly what the makers of Deadpool 2 followed, sticking to the sequel rules and simply trying to cram more of the things that audiences enjoyed last time into one film. And it works. It's still just as cheeky, gritty and fun. Plus, thanks to a new director, we get a level better action sequences, and besides, the trailers are far from spelling out everything that made it into the film. It's a shame about the slightly more rushed start, but even so, Deadpool 2 is at least on par with the first. Or rather, it surpasses it in every way.

Luckily, Wade wasn't kidding this time either. It is indeed a family film. Without it, the puzzle of gags, charming lines, over-the-top situations, and breaking of the fourth wall would fall apart, but this time the plot foundation is even stronger than before. The first installment took too long to see what it could get away with, the second one jumps headfirst into genre clichés and isn't afraid to undermine them so much that I couldn't believe my eyes (the X-Force airdrop). I didn't trust David Leitch at all, so the relief that Ol' Red is in good hands was ultimately more than surprising.

Deadpool directed by the guy who killed a dog in John Wick is back, and it's the ultimate smash, earning the title of best film of the year so far (only Mission Impossible 6, Sicario and Jurassic World have a chance to beat it). Avengers: Infinity War was admittedly more fateful and darker after the second viewing, but I was slightly bored in the first half, since there aren't that many jokes and action in the space of two and a half hours. In contrast, Deadpool 2 is an uncompromising ride like a motherfucker from start to finish, where black, sarcastic, racist humor alternates with sickeningly brutal action that made my balls shrivel. Josh Brolin as Cable gets another medal (I hope this guy will only get cast as a villain), the pop culture references are all over the place like in Ready Player One, the action is more brutal than any exploitation film, the humour is funnier than any comedy, and the pace is faster than a TGV train. I myself don't know what other movie would have so many genre ingredients combined and that to me makes it a true film nerd orgasm (I was blown away by the similarly minded Kingsman last time). People who appreciate story over humour, action and violence won't be so happy. The handshake scene is one of the best Marvel has ever had. The whole theater applauded. PS: Domino is a Lucky Pussy! 11/10.

My biggest gripe is that Morena Baccarin (the goddess) is only in it for 5 minutes. Other than that, it's a classic comic book adaptation, with lots of jokes, moderate action, not much of a script to speak of, and medium-rate entertainment. A mass produced film that will make money, but you won’t want to watch it again. For die-hard fans of Deadpool as a quirky comic book character and possibly Josh Brolin.
