We see Wade Wilson (Ryan Reynolds) coping with life as a mercenary and a loving boyfriend to Vanessa (Morena Baccarin). Things never go according to plan for our anti-hero, Wade, as there seems to be a kid, who goes by the name "Firefist" (Julian Dennison) causing some havoc with his strange and dangerous mutant powers. That is where a time-travelling mutant named Cable (Josh Brolin, enjoying to mess with many superheroes from "Avengers" to this) comes in and threatens to kill this kid. The plot is basically 'Terminator 2: Judgement Day' (1991), which - as you can imagine - Deadpool does make a slight reference to. Wade then decides to recruit a team, as you saw in one of the latest trailers, he forms a group he calls the "X-Force" which includes; Domino (Zazie Beetz), Zeitgeist (Bill Skarsgard), Bedlam (Terry Crews) and many others. Without saying too much, the scene with the "X-Force" is one of the funniest scenes in this movie, I can't explain why, but it's a scene I will never forget. The sequel - with David Leitch as the director - is definitely much bigger, but it never loses the heart of what made the first movie do so well. Nor does it lose track of Deadpool as a comic book character. 'Deadpool 2' deserves to be mentioned among the list of sequels that surpass their predecessors. The action scenes are terrific, the humor is offensive, the story goes surprisingly deeper, and the characters just keep coming. Overall, this is a really fun movie, with some really fun moments. Josh Brolin once again steals the show just like he did in 'Avengers: Infinity War' (2018), Zazie Beetz does a good job as Domino, Julian Dennison plays well as a troubled kid, and Ryan Reynolds just carries this movie so effortlessly.… Expand

Is black humor a racist disposition, Mr. Deadpool?

It's increasingly obvious the writing of the screenplay was more complicated than you thought, as shaping the hilarious dialogues for the anti-hero demands inventiveness from more than one brain. Reese, Wernick, and Reynolds stick thousands, thousands, thousands of references, not just as the usual easter-eggs game. Pop-culture is key, the endless mentions on screen through one-liners are sickeningly amusing thanks to our strange time. No-one and nothing can get away from the vicious signs: literature (Pericles), music (dubstep), singers (Cher and Justin Bieber), actors (Jackman and, oh!, Reynolds), of course film ("Star Wars," DC, Marvel, 007's "Spectre," "John Wick" and a long etcetera), and even the movie conception itself, laughing at the writing process, the production companies, its screenwriters and director through an unforgettable meta-cinematographic language. Such was the impact that I began to hyperventilate, picking references that maybe were never deliberately introduced by the screenwriters ("Spy" by Paul Feig or "Inception" by Nolan). Hands down, the film with more explicitly-implanted-in-the-script pop-culture references I have ever seen. It'd be demoralizing to say that, after the titanic and classical work put into "Infinity War" with regard to the creation, treatment, and exposition of its villains, Marvel has taken a step back, sorry, somehow it did. Obviously, most viewers buy a ticket to see their favorite hero do and undo, but it's important to know if whoever gets such punches— curse words in this case —has managed to involve with the audience and the story, here, none of that happened of course. Villain's role changes so many times that, in the end, the course of events seems disoriented; firstly, Cable would become a pain in the neck for the antihero according to the script, however, thanks to a shrewd plot twist, Mr. Nathan gives up his seat to two more characters, a yo-yo move that doesn't favor and ends up giving the perception there is no real villain, perhaps, the only baddie is Deadpool. This installment had the chance to remedy the lack of spectacle in the mise-en-scène and the exposition of the largest and most expensive set-pieces, however, even with a highly qualified stunt coordinator, you never get something really epic matching tremendous levels of violence with some kind of visual beauty. Stuntman-turned-filmmaker David Leitch is known for what "John Wick" is recognized as a cult-film today: its fierce, brutal, meticulously choreographed combats. Although it's evident an upsurge in less-artificial fighting scenes and comically bloody sequences, none of these serves to mask a lackluster visual buffet, in the last, lacking styled compositions that leave you astounded, doing no justice to the exquisite visuals and action in "JW" and "Atomic Blonde," the two previous works of the filmmaker. Jonathan Sela's cinematography handles intelligent and frankly striking angles, but he never ventures to pass the limits over and decides to settle with a couple of laudable sequences that always shine under the shadow of the well-made fights in the first flick, I find it somewhat strange, especially taking into account who its director is, not even the final sequence which draws its strengths on the always-funny performances and the unbeatable screenplay. There are similarities in a specific sequence, one that many remember from Miller's pic for the misuse of special effects, yes, the one in which Wade Wilson is kicking asses along a freeway as an opening scene, here, it's Domino who must withstand an embarrassing set-piece, it's unheard of the poorly-achieved digital effects it must endure, it seems as if the crew had forgotten to finish it and had decided to release it that way, the scenes aren't realistic at all, it looks like a 2000's video game. Tyler Bates doesn't do a sincerely rewarding feat as his "soundtrack" for the film vomits hyperactive and energetic melodies over the frames, that don't contribute anything to the visual part to excel. The only original song which can really monopolize the spotlights soon is 'Ashes ' interpreted by the queen Celine Dion, one which is used, covertly, more than once. "Deadpool 2" by David Leitch unimpeachably dynamizes only some of the features which made the first movie so freestanding, unusually special and extravagant while neglecting aspects of cardinal importance as a good approach to the characters, a stunning visual section and a deep, conscious development and treatment to a powerful villain. But don't worry, you'll get more vicious action, trenchant jokes and one-liners, visual gags, a new volatile group of heroes, many, many references of all kinds and an experience that does not disappoint, but what's a Wade Wilson/Ryan Reynolds who gets his long-awaited sequel where the only thing that matters is the surface? By the way, did I leave the stove on?… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Such a blast! Being a huge fan of the first film, I was happy to return to the world of Deadpool for a sequel! I was fortunate enough to catch the double feature screening, so the first one was fresh in my mind when I watched the sequel. Though most of the jokes were almost the carbon copy of the first film, there were some that were fresh and had me laughing out loud in my seat. The other element that they introduced was a little more of the humanity of Wade, which was a very warm surprise. Though the first half of the movie was spent trying to figure out how he could kill himself, I felt the weight of his heartache and the loss of purpose through the comedy and action. Domino was just stunning to have as an addition to the X Force!! Zazie Beets was such a joy to watch kick so much ass, while remaining light and fun to balance out Cable's dark story. The only weak link was Firefist. I feel like the jokes about thug life and his inclination for the crime world seemed a little unwarranted. Though Dennison was a good fit for the role, I feel the development of his character was too easy. Also, I love the LGBT representation!! They may be the first openly Lesbian Superhero couple I've seen in a Marvel movie! It made me real excited to see this representation happen in the superhero world. Overall, this was such a fun movie and I'm excited to see how the franchise pans out!!… Expand

MovieReviewer45May 20, 2018

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Movie is an improvement over the original. The movie has an emotional resonance that was not seen in its predecessor. Character introduction for the new characters was not executed properly as their character development is quite poor especially for the new kid villain (now a new member of the team). I didn't like the personality or characterization for that kid.

What I like in this movie is the overall humor. It manages to attract me with its well-executed humorous gags made by Deadpool himself. The humor seems a little corny at some points but rather it still successfully delivered. The relationship between Deadpool and his fiancee in the first movie is quite cliche and not so romantic to be expected. In this sequel, I have witnessed an improvement in their relationship as a couple which adds some dramatic and quite sad scenes on some part of the movie.

And lastly, the CGI is great and is not an implication of the movie being a small budgeted film. The movie delivers overall. Congrats to the whole team that made the movie and the whole cast as well.

Score: 7/10 or 3.5/5 stars… Expand

Some of them are funny and a few made me laugh out loud, so the scatter-gun approach to wisecracks worked for me. Some average CGI for a superhero flick but I am forgiving considering that this movie is made for older audiences and had a lower budget. The low budget is also noticeable when compared to an Avengers or X-Men movie. It is much smaller in scope. Some of the humor is crude and is more appropriate for young teens but the movie is R rated due to language and violence meaning they are not actually allowed to see it. I would be happy for my 11 year old to watch this but not all parents would. It all depends on your opinion regarding naughty words.

Finally #20: some plot changes did not caught up with me, but since it's comedy, I may allow it to pass.
Overall: yes, second viewing WILL make it easier to understand but that's not fair.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Stuntman turned director David Leitch's 'Deadpool 2' starts with a bang... literally. Among the very first scenes our hero lies on top of a bunch of fuel canisters and blows himself up in glorious slow-motion. The result of this is the loss of his lover, Vanessa (Morena Baccarin) and with that said, this film is more absurd but at the same time more emotional that the first one... well, sort of, this is Deadpool after all, a vulgar anti-hero who cannot die.

If the first 'Deadpool' was about introducing the 4th wall breaking elements and intelligent and burning references to popular culture, this film takes it to a whole new level. Seriously, rather than listing the moments which contain these smart and witty comments, it is actually easier to list the moments which do not. This is, of course, incredibly funny, and the lines are delivered with perfect timing and tone by a Ryan Reynolds which I think it's safe to say lost his mind after playing this character (in a good way, of course). Unfortunately, this is a double-edged sword. You see, this film takes a pretty serious plot about a troubled and abused mutant child, a ruined family and a tragic death; themes which are often parodied in an offensive but incredibly funny manner. The problem is not here though.

The problem starts with the way this film treats itself. Starting even from its marketing campaign, it does not want to be taken seriously, nor it wants appreciation. Is almost as if it has no trust upon itself. But again, no problem here, as its self-deprecating humor is so good that it really does not matter. The tingle comes when it attempts to actually take something seriously - like the relationship between Deadpool and Vanessa, and Wilson's regret of not being able to save her. After ridiculing every single serious element and throwing continuous roast comedy rounds at everything, you do not want anything else. Is like living in a dark room for weeks. When you get out, the light is unbearable and you could not care less about it.

But, 'Deadpool 2' hits where it matters, delivering perfect dark humor, masterfully breaking the 4th wall; its biggest achievement though is the way it uses comedy to advance its serious plot, even though some hiccups are occasionally noticeable. But, as Deadpool said: 'lazy writers'.… Expand

And, unlike most of Marvel's universe, the villains/bad guys can actually and do redeem themselves - ok, some are not allowed to, but at least some do. That is the problem with superhero movies, ~"a great hero requires a great villain", i.e. pure evil, which of course, does not exist - just as superheros do not. Be that as it may, this one was fun to watch, had great humor - ok, here comes the sermon - but too much drug use promotion (and remember, alcohol is the most abused drug in the world, though tobacco kills the most). Sorry for the sermon. At any rate, if your budget is limited, don't see Infinity War, see this one - much more bang for your buck.

Now we have a sequel about the Merc With aThe first Deadpool is a movie that will always stay in my heart,not because of the movie's quality,but because it's the movie that inspired me to start my career as a movie critic. (Crazy,right?)
Now we have a sequel about the Merc With a Mouth that falls into the usual 'Sequel Curse’,where instead of expanding the characters,they expand the ante on so many levels,some of them really unnecessary.
This was another half-disappointment for me (not like LEGO Ninjago where at the end,it made me feel empty).
Sure,the characters’ writing is here and there (that’s where Cable needs its own paragraph),but they play everything (triple emphasize ”EVERYTHING”) for a laugh. From Josh Brolin to RoboCop to Winnie The Pooh all of a sudden,which was very funny at times,certainly. Take that and cram in some excellent action sequences into a rather complex story that sometimes feels like a superhero movie and sometimes like a Friday Night Movie.
This is the kind of movie that feels like if the studio gave David Leitch (the director of this movie) a Checklist,where, as said, everything would be played for a laugh and sometimes there would be some setups to something.
Anywho,Cable, alongside Deadpool,is probably the one character who carries this entire movie. The Director and screenwriters’ passion was indeed there to make them feel like “He can be more than just a Rip-Off Terminator,I mean….He can travel through time!”. The movie would sometimes try and be as emotional as Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol.2,and sometimes it works,but sometimes it feels unearned.
Although you better stick around the end for that End-Credits sequence. Trust me,it'll be worth the pennies.
In the end,Deadpool 2 is just plain funny,and that's all you need to know going into it.
Is it better than the first one? Nowhere near,but nonetheless,it's “The First Great Movie Of The Summer”,which should tell you something. (I wish I would've said it with Infinity War if they didn't release it on April)… Expand

I have never cried so much in a movie. TIL when you laugh too hard for too long, your eyes turn to mush.

This movie is so franchise-making, standard-setting that Disney is definitely going to buy it and put Kathy Kennedy in charge.

DP 2 hits on literally the same notes as the first movie and there's a good amount of 4th wall breaking action to go with a few rehashed jokes from the original. It's still absolutely hilarious to watch and Ryan Reynolds is definitely not afraid to make fun of himself at any moment to garner a laugh or two. I just wish that the one thing the movie wasn't afraid of was making fun of it's super dull, and super boring main plot that barely acts as a way to keep the laughs going. It was the same with the first movie. The writers are clearly not afraid to poke fun at anything, unless that happens to carry anything forward with the plot. It's such an easy setup too since both movies now have been almost the definition of a stereotypical hero growth formula we've seen from hundreds of other movies at this point. Still I'll give them credit for pushing the envelope yet again here with some of the humor subject matter and it makes me wonder what they'll do for future movies since Marvel will prob own the X-Men franchise before a 3rd one can come out.… Expand

The short review: This is as good/great as the first film and I have not even seen the first film!

Related media: The first film was banned from the cinemas and TV in my country and I still don’t know which scene(s) had caused this. Ha ha!The short review: This is as good/great as the first film and I have not even seen the first film!

Related media: The first film was banned from the cinemas and TV in my country and I still don’t know which scene(s) had caused this. Ha ha! I have also not read any Deadpool comics before, but I have seen all the clips you can get on Youtube.

What's it like? A major character dies at the beginning and Deadpool is depressed. He tries to prevent a young mutant from doing the wrong thing, but is instead imprisoned with the mutant in a place where mutant powers are neutralised. Then Cable shows up to kill the mutant. It has a lot of silliness, jokes, violence, and breaking-the-fourth-wall conversations, yet there is a good lesson in it. Mid- and post-credit scenes: There is one GREAT mid-credit multi-scene and no post-credit scene.

Positives: 1) This film is filled with jokes, silliness, and breaking-the-fourth-wall conversations. 2) At the core of the film is a message about the mutants vs humans fight that the X-men films had been trying to impart onto us, and it is great that of all X-men characters, it is the irreverent Deadpool that imparts this message best of all.

3) The cameos are very unexpected but are very funny. The cameos in the mid-credit multi-scene, including that of a character that is already dead in another film universe, raises the bar to another level of silliness. 4) Deadpool recruits several new mutants to his team here, they makes the film interesting. What happened to these mutants is very funny and Domino, a mutant with the power of luck, was a standout character.

5) The apt use of some 80's music also much appreciated. Negatives: Some say that this film is not a fresh as the first film. As I had missed out on the first film, it didn’t bother me.

How would the different age groups rate it?

Children: You need to grow up by some ten years first… but it’ll still be too adult for you! No Deadpool 2 for you!;
Teens: Are you going to be accompanied by your parents to this film? Then it will be an ‘Excellent’;
Young adults: Excellent;
Medium age adults: Excellent; Old adults: The film is too adult of ‘Old adults’. They would only give it a ‘Good’; Rating: 5/5 (no half scores). Pay to watch it in the cinema and then buy the DVD.… Expand

TheDeadpool is back and better than ever! this sequel packs in more raunchy, fourth-wall breaking humor and gut-wrenching action than the first. This film is full of a ton of stellar pop culture references and blink and you miss it cameos. The pacing in this film is a little all over the place but it smoothes out during the second act. the acting in this film is on point, and Julian Denison proves that he can handle his own and shine even through the biggest of action stars. One thing that is very original in a comic book movie and that turned out great is that the film has no physical big bad, instead, Deadpool is forced through a sequence of unfortunate events until he hits rock bottom. Zazzie Beet's Domino is by far one of the coolest characters in the film and her powers are depicted perfectly. the film also does a good job of balancing its budget, although some of the VFX shots are a little wonky. I wasn't very fond of Josh Brolin's Cable, he felt a little too over the top. Overall, Deadpool 2 is a great film that improves on the original with surprisingly a lot of heart.… Expand

You don't need to see the first film in order for this one to be good. However, I feel like events that take place in this film make the first one irrelevant. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, but something that I noticed. The comedy is well placed, for this most part, and works well (again...for the most part). The action is great and the music that accompanies it is as well. Ryan Reynolds kills it yet again, which was expected. You can tell that he loves playing this characters, and that getting it right means a lot to him. As mentioned before, some jokes didn't land the way there were meant to and sometimes ruined the scene. There is a scene near the end of this film that is meant to be completely serious because there is no joke in that scene. The emotional core of that scene just isn't there because the characters don't earn that moment. There is a good balance of comedy and seriousness that a film must have if it wants to achieve an emotional moment. Unfortunately, Deadpool 2 does not have that nor does the story allow the time needed to build that connection. Putting that aside, Josh Brolin is amazing as Cable and is a very good villain. The whole cast is great but some have been sidelined. There are plenty of new characters and many surprises that come along with them that make this an enjoyable film. The cameos are great and the post credit scene is even better. My hope is that for Deadpool 3 they create a better story that isn't as basic as the first two films. It worked great the first time, but if you want to build characters and have the audience connect with them you need to have better motivations and more of an emotional core.… Expand

It is basically the destilled essence of everything I love about movies. Dark humor, gore, action and most important of all? It doesn't take itself seriously. Not in the least. I rarely like action hero movies. They seem pretentious and too full of themselves. Deadpool 1/2 is the antithesis to this. As is Guardians of the Galaxy (I loved the first one, and enjoyed the second). It's the same ingredients basically, but with Deadpool it just nails all of it. To a wall. Through a head. It's so unconventianal it just keeps throwing surprises at you. And... Yes, this movie actually has depth aswell! I have to admit to a bit of choke-up a couple places. Didn't expect that, but I gladly welcomed it.

Can't wait for the third.… Expand

Although I liked the first movie a little bit more, this movie was still a blast. It is definitely funnier than the first. Be sure to stick around when the credits start for the mid-credits scene. Trust me. You don't want to miss whatAlthough I liked the first movie a little bit more, this movie was still a blast. It is definitely funnier than the first. Be sure to stick around when the credits start for the mid-credits scene. Trust me. You don't want to miss what happens.

This movie has a better budget than the first one, which results in better action scenes and a lot more places and characters for Deadpool to interact with, which keeps things more interesting. Brolin does a good job as the straight man in Deadpool's world of insanity and kicking butt. However, it's Zazie Beets who really steals the show as Domino. She does a great job as the sassy, sarcastic counterpart to Deadpool and her luck powers work for some really creative fight scenes. No spoilers, but one X-Men character who has never gotten his or her due finally gets his/her cinematic moment to shine.

Now, why do I think the first one is better if this one is funnier? Deadpool 1 was a lot more solid plot-wise. Deadpool 2 is darker and more anarchist than the first. At times, the more serious scenes feel like they conflict with the more humorous ones. I do appreciate the need for an emotional backbone to the film, things could've been smoother. Anyway, if you liked the first you should still really like this.… Expand

While this happens from time to time, outside of the few times this occurs in Fight Club, I cannot think of a single major film to date that has done this successfully. The first Deadpool film did this seamlessly as it took us on a journey through the anti-hero’s shady past, and the follow up builds on this as well as other aspects flawlessly. Everything from the over-the-top violence and crude humor to the one off cameos, Deadpool 2 hits its target, even when aiming left of center.

The film opens an unknown amount of time after the events of the first film, with Deadpool using his abilities to take down high value targets that other assassins are too afraid or ill-equipped to handle. After pissing off the wrong target, he loses everything and is soon suicidal, found by Colossus and taken in by the X-Men. Needless to say, his first mission as part of the team goes south and he’s found in a mutant prison. Soon into his stay, the time traveling Cable, played perfectly by Josh Brolin (Avengers Infinity War, Sicario) arrives to assassinate Deadpool’s new cellmate. After his violent escape, he sets out with his not so trusty sidekick Weasel, played by TJ Miller (Silicon Valley) to build a team, known as X-Force. The team sadly falls apart too soon, as the characters play well off of each other.

The entire cast works well, playing out like a highly dysfunctional family with the supporting cast offering just as many, if not more laughs than Ryan Reynolds in the titular role (as well as pulling an uncredited double duty as one of the film’s villains). Reynolds, Brolin, and Zazie Beetz (Atlanta) as Domino bring the characters to life, ripped straight from the pages of the Marvel Comics’ series they are based upon. Beetz simply steals any scene she is in with her comic timing and commanding presence, avoiding her becoming nothing but eye candy, which is the case with many of the female superheroes (I.E. Black Widow, Catwoman, Harley Quinn). My lingering complaint with the film is that Domino’s makeup and hair differ greatly from the comics and make the character almost unrecognizable visually. While I can see why the opted to have a single eye covered in white makeup opposed to her entire body, which would be a nightmare touching up on the set of an action film, I found her afro to differ greatly and is far from tactical, considering she’s an assassin.

The movie involves some time travel, which has been an issue in the past with the overall series but this movie handles it well, making few changes in the past that would come back to bite them in the ass. The X-Men film series are known for having the very definition of a nightmare when it comes to continuity, and Deadpool 2 does right some of these wrongs, yet makes some similar mistakes as well, due to a blink and you miss it cameo. The film even goes as far as to try to right one of the series past mistakes.

Much like the original film, there is quite a bit of CGI that works well. Colossus makes a triumphant return, and while he looked a bit too SyFy channel movie of the week in terms of appearance in the original, he often looks like he is a legit man made of metal in this outing. While I feel his appearance in X2 was more appealing, this venture was a step in the right direction. The movie’s biggest baddie (in terms of size and scope) is also 100% CGI and looks impressive, with this being his best on screen appearance to date.

If you thought the original Deadpool was an immature, crude, hyperviolent piece of trash, you’ll probably think the same of this sequel. If you’re like me and look at him as one of the best superheros on the market, film or otherwise, you’ll have an amazing time watching the story unfold.… Expand

Other movies have tried this. It rarely works. Airplane! 1 is just about the only other success example. If you view DP 2 as written not for the general public but written for Marvel's stable of writers, fans very knowledgeable about comics and movies; and, people who attend ComiCon, then the movies takes on a much more positive cast. It's a movie of inside jokes, ALL inside baseball, deliberately so but still done entertainingly. Leitch did this again with Hobbs & Shaw (2019).

Comparing DP 1 &2 to the Donner X-Men series is foolish as a reviewer. The X-Men movies are trying to be emotionally affecting, engaging stories in a superhero genre. DP 1 and especially 2 is a parody of tropes like Airplane! 1.

This goes double or maybe triple for the fight choreography This is not John Wick 1,2, 3. This is fight coordinators making fun of fight stunts for fight stunt fans. If you have seen David's Snowball Fight made for the Apple 10 iPhone, on YouTube you will see the same sort of gleeful recycling of tropes. David knows he is recycling tropes.

To make recycling tropes come off this well is really hard to do.

Evidence: all the Scream movies, failed Pink Panther movies, the weak parts of Mr. Bean movies, etc.

I think you are on to something with Fletch. Fletch was throwing-forward to Ryan Reynolds' screen persona. Ryan Reynolds is Fletch on cocaine. Both are caricatures of sick young, know-nothing, adults with no learning, wisdom, understanding nor sustainable culture, atheistic consumers.

Fletch and Reynolds screen persona express a generation who grew up truly "amusing themselves to death" in Neil Postman's useful phrase. The emptiness, the vapidness, the lack of emotional honesty and self-connection is the pain their weal humor attempts to compensate for. Reynolds and Leitch do this artfully.… Expand

A strong sequel. While I think it is not as refreshing as the first movie it has the same strengths, one of the best post credit scenes ever and addresses some complaint of the first movies in humorous ways like why there are so few X-MenA strong sequel. While I think it is not as refreshing as the first movie it has the same strengths, one of the best post credit scenes ever and addresses some complaint of the first movies in humorous ways like why there are so few X-Men ;-). Like the prequel we get the “Merc with a Mouth”, hugely entertaining humor, 4th wall breaks and an entertaining story that takes itself not too serious. This time we deal with Deadpools worst screw up that is so painful he just wants to die (Wont spoil details). However his regeneration does not allow this. He tries to save a child but unbeknownst to him this will get harder as expected. I try my best here to avoid spoilers so I am sorry for being cryptic. The story works well and is a good vehicle for the characters, humor and action. The old characters return to reprise their roles and the new ones are an excellent addition. Ryan Reynolds again fully delivered. Morena Baccarin, Brianna Hildebrand, T.J. Miller, Leslie Uggams and Karan Soni are also again excellent. For the new characters we get a truly strong Josh Brolin, good Julian Dennison, entertaining Zazie Beetz and Shioli Kutsuna. The humor is as respectless, dark and entertaining as it gets. There is no misfire. I have to repeat that the post credits are a highlight. The special effects are nice too and I think I said all there is. I give a rounded up 10 because this is a really good sequel and this deserves extra credit.… Expand

I personally feel like it's a much better movie than the first one. The writing is vastly superior, and there's a layering to the plot that wasn't present in the original.

Just As Good As The First One
Deadpool 2 is just as clever, hilarious, and quirky as it’s predecessor.

I'mma be honest with y'all, I watched Deadpool 2 only because Bill Skarsgård (my favorite actor) was in this.

Far from lazy, it is a fairly brilliant sendup of comic-book action movies, as

Similar to the 1st movie in it's execution and entertainment value. Simple and predictable story.
