Deadpool
8/10
First I should mention I had some reservations going into this film because I've never been much of a Ryan Reynolds fan...................in anything he's done ,
So I needed to get past that first , and then I'll admit I was a little worried about the R Rating , not that I have anything against R rated films , it's just that they fought so hard to get the R rating , I thought maybe they would end up going a little overboard with it, now , just because they could , and it would just become repetitive
But................
It turned out pretty good
Most everything I read on line said it was good , pretty much all my friends had already seen it , and loved it , so the wife and I finally got around to seeing it, we went with a couple friends , who had already seen it once and liked it enough to want to see it again , but again , it would all come down to if I could handle Ryan Reynolds for two hour , a lot of people think he's funny , I just find him annoying , and to be honest , I was actually looking forward more to seeing Colossus more then Deadpool himself , Colossus was always one of my favorite X-Men when I was a kid , and had been totally disappointed with earlier versions of him the prior X-Men movies , so I loved that they finally got him right , although he's a little older version then what I remember as a kid
The movie turned out to be pretty good , and funny , it's fun when you sit in a packed movie theatre ,and you hear the whole audience laughing and stuff at the same time , and as far as the R rating , not nearly as bad as I thought it was going to be it was even toned down to what I was expecting , it was well done , loved the humor , the movie really made fun of it's self , without being silly
One of the lines I liked was when Deadpool goes to the X-Men Mansion , and there were only two people there , being Colossus and Negasonic Teenage Warhead , and Deadpool says something like , The Mansion being such a huge house , and there wasn't anyone else home , it's like they could only afford two X-Men , which was him making fun of the films lower budget , compared to other Super Hero movies , but there are a whole bunch of jokes like that throughout the film , some you might catch , or might not catch ,
There was nothing new with the story / plot , boy meets girl , boy has to save girl , ................we've all been there , but I don't mind the story as long as it's well done , and this one is done pretty good
So over all , as far as Super Hero movies go . this is one of the better ones , you could tell the people who made the movie really wanted to stay close to it's source material , and this movie does a lot better job at that then most , but Colossus was still my favorite part of the movie ,
