movie Deadpool 2 (2018)

[Harsh World]

So, I watched Deadpool 2 this afternoon, mainly because I wanted to see if the new Deadpool & Wolverine movie would be worth the ticket price. I figured it might help me decide before it leaves theaters.

After finishing it, I have say it was interesting, but not quite what I expected compared to the first one. The humor was still there, with plenty of those classic Deadpool quips and fourth-wall breaks, but the action scenes didn't hit as hard as I thought they would as they did in the original.

The beginning kind of surprised me, too. It kicks off with Deadpool's messy work life crashing into his personal one, which wasn’t completely out of left field for a story like this, but I didn’t expect things to get that heavy that fast.

I also expected Deadpool to keep doing his solo anti-hero thing, like in the first film when he brushed off the X-Men to go solo. While he doesn’t join them this time either, he ends up putting together his own team. That shift made it feel a bit more like a typical superhero movie, which kind of took away from what made the first one stand out to me.

With that in mind, I think I'm going to skip Deadpool & Wolverine in theaters and just wait for it to hit streaming services.

What do you think of Deadpool 2?

Deadpool 2 is quite another thing altogether. It was a bit different from the first part. Deadpool 2 is a family film in the form of a Sci Fi and a love story but Deadpool was simply a love story.

It tell us about a very angry child with diabetes who has a pen that he keeps in his pocket as a weapon. Cable performed well and he was so charming and sneaky. Firefist is one those that did well too. The movie is great and also realistic to some extent.

The CGI were much prettier, and also very captivating. It really enhanced the movie in a great way. I love it and it's one of those movies you will want to keep watching if you have the opportunity. I recommend it.

Loved this film. I was happy to see a fair representation of Juggernaut for a change, especially after the disappointing cameo in X-Men: The Last Stand.
