Deadpool (2016)





Wade Wilson (Ryan Reynolds) is a former Special Forces operative who now works as a mercenary. His world comes crashing down when evil scientist Ajax (Ed Skrein) tortures, disfigures and transforms him into Deadpool. The rogue experiment leaves Deadpool with accelerated healing powers and a twisted sense of humor. With help from mutant allies Colossus and Negasonic Teenage Warhead (Brianna Hildebrand), Deadpool uses his new skills to hunt down the man who nearly destroyed his life.

Ryan Reynold’s smart-talking antihero makes a profanely amusing addition to the X-Men universe. Full review
Mark Kermode·The Guardian
A scabrously funny big-screen showcase for the snarkiest of Marvel's comic-book creations. Full review
Justin Chang·Variety
Deadpool is going to endear a whole new audience to the vivid and weird character, while once again demonstrating the tremendous opportunity for variety in the comic book movie genre. Full review
Eric Eisenberg·Cinemablend
Still, Deadpool is party time for action junkies and Reynolds may just have found the role that makes his career. Full review
Peter Travers·Rolling Stone
Deadpool is a feverishly eager-to-please comic-book movie about a super-villain who suits up like a superhero. Full review
Manohla Dargis·New York Times
I feel a bit like a shill for recommending Deadpool. One reason it snared me was that its hero is, when you come down to it, a snotty film critic — albeit with less flab than the real thing. Full review
David Edelstein·Vulture
Deadpool, much like its source material, is an irreverent, bloody, and riotous twist on the superhero genre - a must-see comic book movie experience. Full review
Ben Kendrick·Screen Rant
With great power comes great responsibility. That's what Spider-Man taught us. But Deadpool is as irresponsible as they come. Full review
Paul Asay·Plugged In
The sheer number of dick jokes will soon numb you to their impact, but this is a fun, if patchy, alternative to the glut of ‘the world is about to end unless we do something’ comic-book films. Full review
Jonathan Pile·Empire
Deadpool may not be the first Marvel character for grown-ups. But this “merc with a mouth,” as he’s known, feels like the first one with real teeth. Full review
