Deadpool

Action/Comedy; R

2016

For some reason, I want to rank this movie lower, but I cannot come up with a reason to, so I guess it's a 9/10 Jupiters after all.

It's very much an action movie. Even when there isn't an action sequence, arguably there's still something going on. It just feels like neverending stuff is going on.

Also, it is very much a teenage boy movie. Teenage boy humor, teenage boy action. I geniunely would not be surprised if some random teenage boy came up with this idea, and then hired a writer to write it and he added his own jokes.

However, I, sadly, am a fan of teenage boy humor. So I, sadly, really enjoyed that aspect of the movie. And I feel like it can go wrong in many different ways, but I think that this movie does it very well.

But what surprised me about this movie was those times where it lacked teenage boy-eries. Like the scenes with Wade and Vanessa, where it showed actual romance and nice stuff, I actually think was done surprisingly well. I don't think it would be crazy at all to call this some kind of romance movie. That was literally one of the main themes of the movie, and for such a teenage boy-ish movie, it was done exceedingly well.

And where Wade and Vanessa come from, like the people they were before the Deadpool thing, I think was really well represented and I think it could've been easily terribly represented, but I think this movie does a very good job of it.

Also, the pacing of this movie was immaculate. It wasn't a very long movie, which obviously helped, but it didn't feel rushed and no moments felt annoyingly stretched out just to make a point. I really actually enjoyed all the scenes and how long they were and where they were placed, and I think that I also, shockingly, really enjoyed that aspect as well.

So that's why I'm not rating it lower. Because this movie was a good movie, especially for being a superhero movie (no offense) where lots of other movies have failed where this movie succeeded. It's very entertaining and really good. Maybe not necessarily a family movie, but I think it's a great by-yourself or a with-friends movie.

Favorite Character

Wade!

I mean, this is kinda the obvious pick. But I don't want to be a tool, and he is the funniest character in the movie, so I have to choose him.

There are a surprising lot of good characters in this movie, though. A close second is easily that bartender guy. He was soooo funny and I almost put him but I didn't because Wade is fairly funnier.

Yeah. Usually I feel like I have to explain myself more but I feel like even if you've just seen the trailer you know why this guy's my favorite. So yeah.
