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!

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.

This was a great movie. Domino and Cable were awesome. Not as great as the first. But it still stands on its own merits. Never bored once and the previews did not ruin it. Will probably wait a week or two to see it again.

The summer has begun and Deadpool and crew have brought the party!!! An action packed, rib busting rollercoaster ride that you’d be a fool to skip

Not many films can survive the sophmore jinx. Deadpool 2 survives this curse in spades and joins the ranks of great second installments such as Terminator 2, X2, Winter Soldier and Aliens. Action packed, a comedy masterclass and aNot many films can survive the sophmore jinx. Deadpool 2 survives this curse in spades and joins the ranks of great second installments such as Terminator 2, X2, Winter Soldier and Aliens. Action packed, a comedy masterclass and a surprisingly emotional story which is stronger than the first film makes this film a definitive must see for the summer Expand

Lacks the novelty of its predecessor, but still delivers a healthy amount of big laughs. Best end credits scene ever.
