IMBd: 8.1/10
RT Critic:  82  Audience:  86
Critic's Consensus:  Though it threatens to buckle under the weight of its meta gags, Deadpool 2 is a gory, gleeful lampoon of the superhero genre buoyed by Ryan Reynolds' undeniable charm.
Cag:  4/ Liked it a lot
Directed by David Leitch
Twentieth Century Fox

Ryan Reynolds, Josh Brolin

My comments:  So many funny parts, I tried to ignore all the violence and mayhem because it's so tongue in cheek and laughable.  Some jokes went right over my head, mostly because I couldn't quite understand what was being said.  Ryan Reynolds is such a natural in the part and it was a real blast having Josh Brolin enter the mix.  Music choices were wonderful, and all the additions right up to the very end of the credits were great fun.  Totally packed movie, I got the last seat, but it was smack in the middle of the back row and perfect.  Fun watching it with so many others even if I didn't know any of them!


RT/ IMDb SummaryAfter surviving a near fatal bovine attack, a disfigured cafeteria chef (Wade Wilson) struggles to fulfill his dream of becoming Miami's hottest bartender, while also learning to cope with his lost sense of taste.
