Marvel has done it once again. From the opening credits until the very end of the movie Marvels' newest creation, "Deadpool," held my attention all the way to the end. Now, I must give a disclaimer and say if crude humor is not on your list of favorite things in this world, then this movie probably won't be for you. Honestly, this movie is one of the best ones I've seen in a while. I would recommend this movie to anyone who a) loves Marvel and b) has a good sense of humor and enjoys a good laugh. In case you haven't been convinced to go see "Deadpool" already, here are six other reasons why you should.
1. Ryan Reynolds
Do I need to say anything else?
2. Humor
Like I said before, if you don't like crude humor, you probably won't enjoy this movie. The whole movie is full of sexual innuendos and Wade Wilson's language is atrocious, but that only adds character to the movie. I personally love movies like this, and crude humor is right up my alley, so the more the merrier.
3. Action
If you like a good action movie, then this is the movie for you. There are plenty of violent scenes in the movie to defiantly fit the requirements for an action movie, however if blood and gore freak you out, I would say this movie probably isn't for you.
4. Breaking the Fourth Wall
The movie did a great job with interacting with moviegoers. It didn't feel forced, and the movie kept flowing.
5. Romance?
Is Deadpool kind of romantic? Sure... as much as Deadpool can be romantic. Wade Wilson's fiancée is the typical "damsel in distress" and acts as plot in the movie. The typical storyline follows the boy likes girl, girl is taken, boy goes to save
6. It's rated R
For some a movie being rated R is a reason to not go see it, but for others a rated R movie means more action, more foul language, and what is a rated R movie without nudity? This movie contains all of that. Sure, I could have lived my life without seeing naked girls on the big screen, but Ryan Reynolds gave us an eyeful as well. Obliviously the movie is rated R for a reason, meaning this movie isn't meant for younger children.
All in all, I was very pleased with the movie, and it lived up to my expectations. I was excited to see this movie, and it did not let me down. Now is "Deadpool" a family-friendly movie and a movie for all? Absolutely not. But if you enjoy everything mentioned above then I would absolutely see it for yourselves, and if you don't believe be check it out for yourselves. Marvel really outdid themselves this time!
