Was it worth the wait? Will it save the Marvel Cinematic Universe? Will the greatest bromance in Hollywood history finally come to fruition? Join me for this spoiler free review as I take a look at Deadpool & Wolverine.
Wolverine fucking shredding Deadpool verbally was the best scene for me. Someone finally shut Wade up, and that line about not being able to save a relationship with a goddamn stripper was ice cold!
I think what makes Deadpool movies so good is their self awareness. Wolvies verbal beatdown of basically Deadpool's entire character motivation was oddly refreshing.
That was legitimately a good moment. Deadpool had no words. Silly to say, but he really did cut Deadpool deeper with those words than with his claws. Of course there was a fight after, but you could feel Wade having to eat it because it was true.
@@robertdouble559 You actually watched half of the first season? I feel very sorry for you! Watching the occasional RU-vidr video about it was way more than I could be bothered with.
Deadpool 3 was basically a love letter to the 2000s FOX superhero movies, and I loved it. Man I wish Hugh had worn that iconic wolverine suit from the beginning, but at least we got it now. He had a great run.
There was a interview recently where Ryan was saying his kids love "The Greatest Showman" and Hugh will come around and sing all the numbers for Ryan's kids (who are oblivious as to how good they've got it!), so yeah, they probably are pretty good mates.
One of the most insanely star rated friendships. You got Ryan Reynolds whos best friend is Hugh Jackman The you have his wife Blake Lively whos best friend is Taylor Swift. So you have Hugh acting out the greatest showman and Taylor singing an naming songs after Ryan and Blakes children. These kids live nearly every childs insane happy fever dream.
I gave the first two Deadpool movies 9/10. My friend & I both gave this one a 6/10. Too much fan service - and I say that as a comic book guy who appreciates nods to books. The story was bogged-down with mediocre characters & a weak storyline. The "villain's" means and motivation were weak & uninteresting. I'm glad I saw it, but I was surprisingly bored and uninterested way too often. 6/10
@@jdunnatl The second Deadpool was a 9/10? The drop in quality between the first and second Deadpool movies was significant. Felt like a Taika Waititi mess.
@@jdunnatl9/10 for second Deadpool? That movie was so boring especially in the second half that I paused it 75% through and forgot going back to it for months
My favorite part of Deadpool 3, was the unbelievably heartwarming bloopers and behind the scenes from ancient fox films and theyre young nostalgic cast that rolled with the credits. Thats the kind of awareness and respect that wins hearts

@@misterslowhand666 nostalgic, sad, heartwarming, respectful - until you remember that song is called "Good Riddance" 🤣 another subtle jab at Fox there?
@@dvdeeble Lol, its a sarcastic goodbye song yet people have bastardized it into a happy ending song.. that's actually pretty punk of Greenday to sneak their message into mainstream🤘
I was in a Theater full of kids and i was hearing on every cameo "who's that", "is this a new character", "will we get movie for this one". And boi, it made me feel old... and i'm still 27...
Our theater was FILLED. And people were hanging in the lobby just talking afterwards. People clapped and cheered at points in the film. Its been a LONGGGG time since Ive had a cinema experience like that. So it was a blast for me.
Well to a starved man even McDonald's tastes like the best food ever, but the review makes it sound like it's just member berries served by good actors. Thanks, but no thanks.
@@MarkLaw13 a way better comic-accurate Wolverine. But my goodness, does Jackman get the nuances spot-on. Replacing his acting is damn-near impossible, especially after this film.
@@michaelm5542 I think that's the difference between a comic book fan which Henry is compared to Hugh who just went off not reading the comics. He did before he got the role back in 2000s but Bryan Singer asked him not to. Henry looked the part and moved well. It went to show that Hugh Jackman is not the best wolverine but the longest in the row. Every wolverine that's been on screen has been better than Hugh but he is the only live action. Iron Man is RDJ. Wolverine is not Hugh. Hugh is playing Wolverine
@MarkLaw13 see my point is I don't think there's gonna be a better actor than Hugh at playing Wolverine. I know what you're saying but the quality of acting matters most at the end of the day.
The entire movie feels like Ryan Reynolds own Disney Marvel experience. 1. Deadpool given chance to join Earth-616 but have to sacrifice everything he loves. = Ryan's chance to join MCU but he has to sacrifice everything he love about playing Deadpool and conform to the "Marvel formula" aka "THE MESSAGE" 2. Wolverine is the anchor point, Logan's death ends Deadpool's timeline. = Jackman's retirement as Wolverine ending Reynolds dream to have him in Deadpool 3. 3. Deadpool looking for Wolverine to save his timeline. = Ryan campaigning to have Jackman reprise the role of Wolverine to get Deadpool 3 greenlit. 4. Deadpool & Wolverine stuck in the void, that is controlled by the all powerful Cassandra Nova. = Writer's guild strike, constant meddling from all powerful Disney Marvel. Sidenote Cassandra killed a foul mouthed Chris feels like a jab at Disney Marvel trying to censor Deadpool's own colorful language xD. 5. Deadpool took another shot at Cassandra to return to his timeline = Deadpool reshoots to refine the final cut 6. Surprise cameos help Deadpool and said "I'm about to make a name for myself, tell everyone what happened here" knowing they probably won't make it. = Ryan's own attitude towards the movie, if this is the end for his Deadpool, so be it. 7. TVA at the end told Deadpool "Whatever you did, somehow saved this timeline" = Ryan's surprise Disney allowed the R rating for Deadpool. The ending feels like Ryan Reynolds is happy he done Deadpool & Wolverine the way he wanted. They're still not part of the MCU (different timeline) but he is happy if this is the end.
That philosophy worked in the Golden Age of Hollywood, I think the rot started to set in when the auteurs of the 70s were given blank cheques to spend.
Honestly, the fact that they even let Deadpool swear like a sailor and mock current Marvel just shows how much Ryan Reynolds gets the fans frustrations and you know it burned Disney/Marvel’s ass letting him say that Even I know this won’t save the MCU, but at the same time it’s just something everyone; whether your a Marvel fan, a Deadpool fan, an X-Men fan, or just a casual viewer; have been waiting for years to see And if this truly is a love letter to the beginning of the superhero movies of the 2000’s, honestly I’m all for that
For me, it was a line the end that really got me "I'm marvel jesus, or Spock" as deadpool briefly re-enacts the ending of Wrath of Khan. As an old school trekkie, that made me laugh
A callback to the "Friends" episode where Chandler has a disturbing encounter with Joey's childhood tailor? ("Yes, Joey, that's how they measure pants...in *prison*.")
I dunno. I bought tickets for the movie thinking it'd be sold out, but on Friday night less than half of the seats had been purchased. I don't know if it's going to be as profitable as people are expecting. I'm expecting the typical MCU 60-70% drop-off in the second week.
Yeah I enjoyed it, brought back memories of the good old days and a good salute to what came before it. Not groundbreaking but I never expected that from a deadpool movie.
@@IBLIZA23Deadpool 1 and 2 weren't groundbreaking either, but both Movies managed to tell a decent Story. Deadpool and Wolverine is a big step back in Terms of quality but it doesnt surprise me. Ryan had actually no Story for a third Movie and it shows.
A love letter to the early 2000s that acknowledges the importance of 20th Century Fox’s efforts towards the superhero genre. A movie won’t save the MCU, but it sure as hell was an emotional swan song to our beloved X-Men.
So I wonder why, now that Fox and Disney have merged, don't they get the OG Avengers (Cap, Iron Man, Hulk and Thor) together with the OG X-Men? Maybe everyone is too old, although Jackman hasn't lost a step. So probably its just about money. That many top actors would be way too much money.
Its a sad reality that this movie is fitting for a "Marvel fan". I was a fan when the movies were much more intelligent and more fully thought out, but thats so many years past already.
Real Marvel fans? Do not make me laugh. But it is a film that not even scam RU-vidrs dare to criticize because they know they would make a fool of themselves, just as happened with X Men 97.
Most bizarre thing about this movie is that it makes you appreciate the pre-MCU superhero era and even kinda redeems it. They mightve not been the best movies but they were still your childhood.
@@VincentBrando theer werre also a lot od duds. but at leats Fox wasn't constantly making the same movie over and over again. one bgi CGi mess with a message.
@@N7gamer1337 honestly,having them make Elektra/Blade/Gambit/X23 go out fighting while seeing Deadpool and Wolverine take that big jump foward was such a great message. Yea they were flawed but they did what was asked of them at the time they were released and seeing them go out like the heroes we always remembered was a beautiful message.
It's also a reference to the 'Reluctant Hero' trope, one of the basic heroic archetypes - stepping up to the plate not for the fame or glory, but because despite a hero or heroine's flaws as a human, the only person with the skills or means of defeating a villain/best chance of facing off against said villain. Alternatively, it can also mean that the hero or heroine is the only person there, and any help can only be given by him or her by default.
@@sigmacademyits also a reference to High Jackman getting the role. Kevin Feige wanted Hugh after Jim Crow declined, but Fox didn't. Their pick was someone else but he couldn't do it due to a contract. Then after Hugh's audition thinking he blew it up, well... The rest is history
Just watched it, It was an absolute blast. The cameos were actually funny, and more importantly, it was just fun. It was FUN. The first FUN movie I've seen in a while.
@@MinosML Kind of, yeah. So many movies recently have been trying to get a point across that it was refreshing just to relax and laugh at a dumb movie.
@@cerrida82 This. Sure it wasn't 'one of the greatest movies of all time' when it comes to storytelling or whatever, but it was so f-ing funny! Movies or tv-shows rarely make me laugh, but I laughed my ass off a few times with this one.
That's where people that had gotten up to leave sat back down with smiles. I don't know about others but at my theaters you could almost taste the yearning for better times.
@@ethangilbert4896 It's more like a farewell to 20th Century Fox and also for Fox's X-Men. Can't believe also that Hugh Jackman played Wolverine for the last 20 years. I did the math, first X-Men movie came out at 2000 so that means, he had played Wolverine for 24 years!
@@SmokeymcJoint420Iron Man, Thor, First Avenger, Civil War, Infinity War, Winter Soldier, Ant Man, Homecoming, Guardians of the Galaxy 1 and 2..... These are already two Hands full of good MCU Movies. Just saying
I get that actual critics have to tear apart a movie from a plot or pace standpoint, but realistically, what the hell else could you ask from the movie? The jokes were fresh, it was very self aware and wasn’t afraid of making fun of itself, and the DP/Wolverine team up had genuine chemistry to keep people engaged. It was everything I could have ever hoped for, and then some. While my mind is blown that Disney actually allowed this film to be made, I personally loved every second of it. As a side note, the post credits scene is one of the greatest things that particular actor (not trying to spoil anything) has ever done.
@@sdogg well, considering Disneys track record of late being what it is, I can understand why he’d be a little overly critical of the movie. Sure, it’s not Shakespeare. But, it’s a Deadpool movie, so what else could you possibly expect from it? I personally thought it was a damn near perfect movie.
yeah, I think it's really hard to create a deadpool movie with a plot that makes sense in any shape or form. I'd also say the "plot" could only ever work for a Deadpool movie ... I do think that previous deadpool movies were a bit more straightforward in plot, but then ... name any franchise that manages to be enjoyable after the first sequel ? This is a trilogy worth keeping. I'm not sure if a 4th deadpool can ever match the previous sucesses, but given the amount of passion that drove this project so far I think that if anyone can ... Deadpool could be the one to do it.
Yeah, that one got me real life LOL'ing as well. Especially with that campy, sometimes Aussie, sometimes Kiwi accent of his. That and Deadpool's dig about Hugh's divorce (letting himself go).
My favorite line was one that I could feel Disney's & Kevin Fiege's hatred for: "Welcome to the Marvel Universe! Not gonna lie, you're coming in at a low point!" I genuinely wonder if someone like Feige or some Disney exec(s) tried to force that line out of the movie.
Saw it in a packed theatre this afternoon. The entire theater was along for the ride. Hysterically laughing at the funny parts, dead silent during the emotional gems, and loudly applauding at the end. Call out its flaws if you want but THIS is the kind of super hero movie/tv show we have all been craving for the last four years and we finally got it. I fucking loved it.
Honestly, I haven't felt so warm, fuzzy and satisfied following a marvel film for some time. Nostalgia, violence, heroism, simple moral messaging, everything a superhero should be. ❤
Moral messaging? You mean idiotic Ryan Reynolds stealing God's word to just mock it and incorporate the Bibles main message as his plot point for Deadpools arc? What a joke.
Actual audible laughter in the cinema, and not just at one or two jokes but throughout the film. Definitely an amazing comedy. Stick around for the end credits too.
@@shanephillips4011 You can support what you like and not support what you don't like. That might give Disney a hint for the future and they can course correct. It's always possible.
I think what really got me was the ending montage. It’s such an oddly heartfelt movie given all the crude jokes and violence, but I suppose that’s the true side of Deadpool in a way. Hugh and Ryan killed it, and I had fun watching it. I walked in half expecting disappointment, and as the film got going, I knew I was in for something fun, and that’s all I could ask for.
@@Ironcabbit Yep, both Deadpool and Ryan have something in common. They use sarcasm, biting words, and humor to defend against an inwardly sensitive and somewhat defensive heart and ego. The latter part that cares, and the former that doesn't want to and pretends not to.
Just watched it last night. That end montage got me. I had all but forgotten those movies. Put me right back in my early 20's for a second. Just married, no kids, still in freaking college...all of that is in the distant past, then bam, montage makes me feel it all. Not sure I liked being reminded how long ago that stuff happened, but I'm not sure I didn't like it either. Ad for Deadpool, I didn't expect much, and I got way more than that. That always makes me happy : )
I was 3 years old when Hugh first played Wolverine. Now at 26, being able to go to the theater and still see him as Wolverine is a gift. The guy is so fucking good as this character it’s insane. I don’t want him to ever stop. You can’t top what he’s done.
@@SubZero-hs9xcblade kicked it off, and Raimi Spiderman just took it a whole new level. Then came all the high stakes, high thrills assembly line superhero movies. We need to get back to the basics.
I was watching the BBC 1 interview with Reynolds and Jackman, and they were talking about how Jackman has come to visit Reynold's kids to sing the showtune parts of the Greatest Showman. This is the truest buddy action film.
@@Crimson_Hawk_01 And looks like Wesley Snipes is still having fun to play Blade. When he said, "There's only one Blade!", he's right because Mahershala Ali's Blade is still on jeopardy of whether or not the movie is gonna be released.

5:18 man this really is what I took from this movie. It was a swansong for that truly flawed comic book era in the early 2000s that held glimpses of promise and earnestness in them despite thier issues. Now everything is so corporatized and formulaic that these films will be held up as early classics in another 10 years. And when I tell you i was dancing in my chair in the beginning and then teared up by the end I knew this film was something special and from the heart with Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman. And those credits with the behind the scene footage of those classic early days was truly an emotional gutpunch for me.
Finally someone who gets it! I came into this movie expecting a movie with heart and soul and passion to stand above the void drivel produced by Disney. And Reynold’s delivered. This movie had me swelling with joy and other emotions at the care put into this. Focusing solely on the flaws in the plot takes away from the spirit of this film that should be praised. It was a hopeful send off to the Fox properties.
The end credits was surprisingly earnest and sweet. It did tug at my heartstrings a bit NGL. Meanwhile, the msheu has done nothing but spat and called us fans dogs screw what the mcu became after 2018 (infinity war was the last good MCU movie)
I thought I was the only one who got a bit emotional looking at all those BTS footage of the older superhero movies. Truly felt like a love letter to 20th Century Fox
I haven't been to a movie like this in years. The theater was packed and the entire audience was was laughing and cheering. It was a movie that just felt good.
The plot was straightforward and fine. Even with the world-ending stakes, Deadpool was making fun of it, asking Paradox to "raise the stakes" with his dialog about what the main villain was about to do.
The fight sequence to Madona's "Like A Prayer" left my jaw hanging open in awe. I hadn't felt like that in a movie in ages. And at the end when the smash through the glass at the back of the bus was a comic book moment we've all been waiting for with Wolverine. Finally, they unleashed the berserker rage from the comics than hadn't been depicted in any of the movies. And Jackman's emotional scenes were Oscar worthy. It's clear why he wanted another shot at the character because there was still moments as an actor that he hadn't done yet. Can't wait to see it again. I can't imagine what the first scripts were like. Reynolds must've be over the moon when Hugh called and said he wanted in.
after listening to YFBS podcast and think madonna is the most overrated pop singer alongside taylor swift of the early 80s. and i don't fucking care about hating madonna's music and i just don't fucking care
I can’t remember when the last movie I went to that had that much audience laughter and people actually clapping in a movie. It’s been years. Not too mention, 90% of the audience stayed to watch the end credits. I wouldn’t say it was better than the other Deadpool movies but for the experience and just pure entertainment joy of cinema experience, it was worth every penny spent on that ticket. It’s been a very long time since I’ve felt that way.
I like how honest it was. "Can this save the MCU? Nope." Honestly, they should have quit while they were ahead, but nope, they just NEEDED to screw it up beyond saving, huh?
We did too! I saw actual popcorn in the air for a second. We weren't a totally packed theater, but there was a line to get in, and when we were leaving, another pack of people ready to go in. (Also Flame On got a lot of screams too.)
I felt no lag in the story. I would’ve sat there for another 3 hours if they had story to tell. And the villain was actually a threat. She was what Dr. Strange 2 couldn’t achieve. *Actually* creepy and threatening.
I actually felt like the villain was kinda meh. Menacing and creepy, sure, but not really memorable imo. Maybe because she was just kinda thrown in the middle of the story unlike Mobius
First film I have seen in 6 years at the Cinema. I loved it. Absolutely loved it. It will 100% one my rewatching films over the years. 10/10. The One Liners, the References and Cameos make this one of my Favourite all time Super Hero films.
And that is exactly 100% Deadpool. Multiverse is getting bit overdone and dumb but Deadpool knows this and isn't afraid to say it out loud but since he is stuck with it might as well have glorious and gory fun with it. 😁
We wanted to see Deadpool and Wolverine together, it happened, it worked... but the backdrop of the tva unfortunately serves as a reminder of where we actually are. The void. Great review!
Me (34, M), my buddy, and my Mom (67, F) had a great time. I had more laughs with this than any other Marvel film. I love the fact that the story didnt take itself too seriously. I genuinely belly laughed for 70% of the movie.
Same i am 37, but was with some friends your age, and we know it this gonna be good movie, with laughs, interesting cameos. Pity we did not learn anything more about Xavier sister, her history. This is one of those villains i would like to get 2 3 movies to see her descend into villainy.
I feel sorry for those that think this means the MCU is back. The amount of self-gaslighting is amazing Edit: Just saw it. I haven't enjoyed a movie this much in a long while. I need to process it, but I can easily say it was better than Deadpool 2. Way more of the jokes landed (at least for me) than what Drinker mentioned in the video.
Even Feige says this isn't cannon, really. They can't even pretend to own good stuff. Marvels fucked you've got to wonder what they have on Feige to have twisted his arm into such woke mindvirus hell.
I feel sorry for anyone thinking that the problem with the MCU are "diversity hires" and "girlbosses", this was the first watchable drinker review since he turned into a grifter but I guess you can't have a review without getting the good old incels a little mad for engagement can you
I respect this movie for not sparing the rod of humor from anything and just trying to be fun. I feel Casandra is a bit of a wasted opportunity though, I pray a variant of her gets to have a more serious movie appearance. Also, I'm guessing how Chris Evans was brought in. Ryan calls him, Chris says he is not going to go back to play cap. Ryan says: "whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa, I never said cap".
The end credits was a beautiful and unexpected tribute to the Fox era Marvel films. I have to admit, I choked up a bit seeing Sir Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, Anna Paquin, James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, and everyone else again, even if it's just archive behind the scenes material. Sure, not everything worked, but it was nice seeing Disney acknowledge the films regardless and how they paved the way for the genre. I'm glad Hugh Jackman realized his dream of retiring Wolverine in the MCU. He's the only actor that can boast two swansongs for his character, both very different yet fitting and heartfelt in their own ways.
Trust me I imagine Ryan did since reading stuff coming out before it sounded like he wanted to mock the hell out of them. It’s just harder too since he would need their approval it would be much different if this movie came out before Fox was owned by Disney
The best option would probably to have the deadpool full on rampage erasing like 90% of the MCU and to stop him they have to actualy take good actors and so the realy good one heroes to team up and set up everything straight where it belong 15 years in the past where woke shit didnt infested everything
He roasted Fox quite openly but honestly I was surprised how much he roasted Disney too. Could have been more too but what we got was already a pleasant surprise. Keep it coming Ryan/Deadpool! 🤘
My friends and I LOVED IT. Perfect movie for a fun time and fan service. Knowing Ryan Reynolds stood up to DEI, canned SHE Hulk, and refused to bow to the "message" people and hurt his career over it, MAKES IT A MUST SEE AND SUPPORTED MOVIE
I had some trouble understanding him, making Deadpool's question "Who is you dialect coach, one of The Minions?" that much funnier. But Gambit wasn't there to talk, but to blow shit (and bad guys) up.
If they tone down Gambit's accent to make him a little more easily understandable, a movie about the guilds and Belladonna would be nice to see on screen even as a one off.
@@Rookie_MattYeah pretty much, even the dialogue and accent aside, Chanum Tatum looked dumb af in that suit. I'd love Dwayne Johnson as Gambit personally
@@cuuurlyfries5246 I must have missed them as I just saw the movie this evening, so it's not spoiling anything for me. Whoever reads this deep into the comments is taking a risk anyway.
Having the title just be “spoiler free review” was such a curveball and the fact that it wasn’t negative in relation to marvel is such a breath of fresh air Hopefully marvel can bring passion back into their projects
I have a feeling that Ryan Reynolds only agreed to do this movie with Disney watching over his shoulder if they gave him the freedom to make it the way he wanted.
Apparently Ryan agreed to do it, but when he found out the producers wanted to sanitise Deadpool so he could fit in with the rest of the MCU, he ehld the whole project hostage by threatening to leave. No clue if this is true, but I can see him doing that tbh
@@KC-kl6qc I don't believe that's true, Feige confirmed the project was always gonna be R-rated and not toned down. The only thing was there were originally many different ideas for this film. Some include a movie featuring many MCU deleted scenes from a different angle with Deadpool, Thor 2 frame-for-frame remake until the end of the first act, a fake movie that after a few minutes was revealed to be Deadpool and Wolverine, and a low-budget road trip featuring Wolverine and Dopinder. But, I also believe this movie was a small test by Marvel to see how R-rated Marvel films would do in theatres considering Blade and Daredevil are coming out soon.
@@yopunkpunk Don't trust anything that snake Feige says. Fucker tried to convince Jackman to not return for this after Reynolds asked him, but thankfully, Jackman basically gave Feige the middle finger and chose to do it for his friend.
And to think- if Dougray Scott hadn't gotten hurt during the filming of _Mission: Impossible 2,_ Hugh Jackman wouldn't be a household name right now...
@@mrmusickhimself Maybe. Just as long as he's a better actor than other musicians I've seen in movies- like Henry Rollins, Mick Jagger or (cringe) Gene Simmons!
I’m not so sure. Jackman is a genuinely talented actor so I think he still would have found a good deal of success even if he hadn’t gotten Wolverine. Perhaps he wouldn’t be the A-lister he is today but he’d still be doing okay.
@@Garrus1995 Agreed. Most likely he would have ended up on Broadway and won a few Tony Awards before breaking into Hollywood. Wouldn't be top-tier, but he'd be famous enough. (As long as his acting career went better than, say, Michael Crawford's!)
I wasn’t expecting this to save Marvel, I just wanted something fun and better than we’ve received over the last few years. I went in not caring, and came out pleased.
There's a huge difference between fan service and member berries. It seems like the Drinker explained the difference in responses I've seen to the movie. Film Threat raved out bit, but Nerdrotic and a few fellow commentators seemed disappointed by it. So it comes down to this: Is watching Ryan and Hugh cosplay for two hours worth it? Your answer determines whether or not you should see it.
If you want to have a great time at the theater, the movie is perfect. If you want to analyze every single thing looking for a masterpiece, this is not the movie for you
A good explanation. As a fun meta film about two well known actors, who play their characters very well, and also are actually friends and have good chemistry, it can be enjoyable.
2 thoughts after watching this cinematic gem: 1) Damn, Emma Corrin really could pass for James McAvoy's sister with that bald cap! 2) Never thought we needed a scene where Wolverine acts like Deadpool and vice versa. Yet, the speech by Hugh Jackman leading to that beautiful car fight scene will forever be in my brain as a big middle finger to Disney & Company. Good luck duplicating the final box office numbers this film will earn.❤
To see Hugh & Ryan make a movie together, maybe that's all we need. Deadpool and The Wolverine, a one off movie that is just to entertain us, not lecture us. 👍
I hate that this one seems so tied to the greater MCU. I enjoyed that the first 2 took place on the outskirts. I really don't give a shit about the MCU and seeing how intertwined it is in this one, I'll just sit it out til it comes to the small screen.
This film was amazing. I nearly fell out my seat when I saw The Cavilrine! He did such a great job & sounded so passionate as Wolverine. If anyone ultimately takes Hugh's place someday, Henry Cavill deserves that position, especially after everything he's been thru with DC, Netflix & Amazon with all passion projects falling through! He really needs his flowers, and I think it would be great!
@@louisduarte8763Not that I've heard, I'm hoping he gets his flowers there, personally. He should point to Deadpool as his argument for sticking nerd accurate when it matters. The Emperor of Mankind demands an R Rating, PG-13 Chainswords are a sin.
@@louisduarte8763 Yes apparently he is thinking of exiting theproject coz of similar woke political changes to the story , one of the same reasons he left the previous projects. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-v_R1UE0oFFY.html
Going in to the theater today with my brothers to celebrate one of their birthdays Not expecting much from it, especially after this review, but I'm sure we'll enjoy it nonetheless as a dumb popcorn movie
Saw it last night. It was fucking hilarious. The chemistry between Jackman and Reynolds was perfect. I have to admit feeling a little sad at the end though thinking about how low Feige and Co. Have brought the MCU.
