Deadpool

For me, a bit mixed feelings. In terms of humour and entertainment, Deadpool delivers exactly what it promised, but the action is unfortunately average and not much to look forward to. Not only is the lower budget quite evident in places, but the cinematography is so chaotic that newcomer Tim Miller could shake hands with Olivier Megaton. The fast editing simply spoils the impression and is so bad that one doesn't even notice the blood properly, which I consider a big drawback. The villain is mediocre, but that's classic Marvel stuff. I was also slightly annoyed by the frequent flashbacks. I liked the seductive Morena Baccarin and the many references to all sorts of movies whether it's the X-men franchise, or even Taken or Blade. The stylish opening credits and an unusual meet-and-greet scene are also a delight:) I don't know if I wasn't in the right frame of mind, but I didn't feel the right excitement and adrenaline rush that I usually experience with movies like this, but I'll give Deadpool another chance. It's worth going to the cinema, but if you've watched the trailer more than twice, you won't be surprised by too many things in the film. Something above 70% (02/11/2016)

The most refreshing comic-book adaptation of the decade, Deadpool boldly stride against the established safe paths of Marvel, cleverly and with the knowledge of the universe of its origins, not taking itself seriously, yet overshadowing everything that does. Honestly, with the thoughtfully edited (!) and heartfelt dramatic storyline, excellent catchphrases and great, easy-to-follow action sequences. And without the annoying digital bullshit. It is a comic-book adaptation with a smaller budget, but with more heart put into it by its creators. Maybe over time I will increase my rating to five stars, as enthusiasm usually grows with the second viewing. (08/09/2016)

Wade wasn't kidding: it's a love story. Thank God. As a shoot-em-up comedy/parody, Deadpool willingly degrades itself with his dozens of pop culture references that threaten to turn it into just instant diarrhea at several points. But it always tightens the screws at the right moment, successfully balancing humor on the edge of the most trivial prepubescent enthusiasm, and everything is fine again. But it wouldn't work without the magical Morena Baccarin. Her first real escape from the world of TV series suits her incredibly well, and while everyone is bowing before the unexpectedly huge financial success of the red madman, especially Ryan Reynolds, I wish her success above all.

“I'm too old for this shit.” Like the comic book, the film version of Deadpool is a victory for the marketing and corporate machinery that cynically passes itself off as a cool, non-conformist and rebellious work of outsiders. Significant credit for this is due to the enduring myth of the R-rating category (M, in the case of comic books) as a putative mark of radicalism and defiance of censorship. Is it actually a measure of quality if a few profanities and some drops of blood appear in a film? The fact that Deadpool became a major blockbuster only serves to confirms the uniformity of the mainstream of the new millennium. In the eighties or nineties, it would be only one of the dozens of films with cheeky catchphrases and a few action scenes that competed monthly on the shelves of video rental shops for the attention of teenagers and children.

It's a good movie. Cool plot, nice narration, good fights, some good lines. Can't say I was laughing my ass off though. And I'm a little disappointed because that's what I was expecting. On the other hand, I got an original love story that wasn't that romantic, but still had something to it. 3.5 stars. (02/19/2016)
