Karry Best movie of this year hands down!

MusicChat It's complicated... I really like the directing, acting and writing but, there are issues with the way it's shot that I just can't deny. As much as I love the storytelling and the fantastic performance but, there are also certain scenes that didn't need to exist.

Maidexpl Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Servaas Strobbe The problem with this movie is the main plot. it's kinda lame and boring to be honest. Luckeley, since this is a deadpool movie, there is a lot more of fluff. The first act is similar to the first movie. It has a similar tone, similar jokes, similar action and similar characters. The second act, where deadpool creates his own mutant-group to go on a mission, was BY FAR the bast part of this movie. It introduced some of the funniest superheroes (including my new favorite: Domino). It was full with ridiculous situations and over-the-top action that kept a smile on my face through the whole act. But best of all, the main plot is more on the background during this whole act. Which leaves us with the third and last act. This is all about the main plot and it's here the movie falls flat. The main story was just not that interesting. It has been done in movies and on TV a million times and there were a lot of plotholes, which Deadpool himself even points out. The child-mutant was just kinda boring to be honest, I catched myself looking to my phone everytime he was in a scene. I didn't care about his motives.To conclude: this movie is still a good popcorn-watch. The direct jokes are (as many point out) not that funny indeed, but the funny thing about Deadpool is just the ridiculousness of it all. Except for the first movie, there is just nothing else like it. It throws away all the rules and taboos of superhero blockbuster movies and just by doing this it kept a smile on my face for the most part of this movie. Just be prepared to struggle in the third act to keep your attention.

klausgmorales I love the movie go see it and decide for yourself if it's for you or not

CinemaClown Missing out on the great opportunity to leave The Untitled Deadpool Sequel as its final title, the second instalment in Merc with a Mouth saga is filled to the brim with R-rated wit, self-congratulatory winks & pop culture references but it is still quite inferior to the original.Set two years after the events that transpired in the first film, Deadpool 2 finds Wade Wilson trying to protect an unstable young mutant from a ruthless cyborg who has arrived from the future, and ultimately assembles a team of mutants in order to save the kid before it is too late.Directed by one of the guys who killed the dog in John Wick, Deadpool 2 feels like an overkill for the most part and lacks the freshness of the original. Add to that its fourth wall breaking & self-referencing gags get old & tiring real soon. The drama suffers because the film never aspires for a proper balance between all aspects.Still, that parody of James Bond opening credit sequence is fun & Ryan Reynolds' dialogue delivery is smooth throughout. Not all its attempts at humour work but the ones that do are catchy. Camerawork is sharp, colourful & zany throughout. And its mid-credits sequence is no less than a highlight. It's too bad what unfolds earlier it isn't as imaginative.There is way too much emphasis on trying to make the film look funny, so much that at some point it all appears a bit too desperate & off-putting. Even the visual effects aren't entirely convincing sometimes and that's never excusable for a film produced on over $100 million budget. The entire film appears repetitive and at times, it's no less than a slog.Coming to the performances, Deadpool 2 is led by Ryan Reynolds' flamboyance & swashbuckling charisma as the eponymous vigilante, and he is excellent both in & out of the suit. But the remaining characters don't have enough flesh on their arcs and most of them are forgettable. The new characters aren't compelling while the reprising ones are still stuck in the same place.On an overall scale, Deadpool 2 goes bigger, louder & darker yet the end result isn't as satisfying as the original. Overstuffed & empty at the same time, there are going to be many who won't mind its shortcomings but for me, this generic action adventure is often dull, at times annoying & above all, soulless. And now I'm not sure if the first film will hold up if I ever decide to revisit.

ellysorensen I wasn't expecting to cry as much as I did to this movie tbh
