Review of Deadpool

Deadpool (2016)
8/10
Exactly what it says it is.
10 July 2022
You can argue whether Deadpool could have gone further or went too far, or whether it's 100% faithful to the comics, but the truth is...Deadpool is Deadpool. He's not just "irreverent," he's inappropriate, he's offensive, and he's the very definition of "no filter." Even the description "the Merc with the Mouth" doesn't quite capture it. It's not that he talks a lot...it's what he says, lol.

He's a no-filter, no-protocol, no-social graces good guy with a strong sense or right and wrong and a pansexual orientation (though, in the film this is hinted at in various ways though never quite addressed full on in an unambiguous way). If that's something that intrigues you in a Marvel X-Men universe hero, you'll dig this. If it's not...if you're already a little put off...then this isn't for you.

And that's OK, there's absolutely no reason every Marvel/X-Men related film needs to feel cookie-cutter.
