You gotta admit. The long-awaited Deadpool movie was just (language)-ing awesome!!! And they thought that it wasn't gonna be a huge hit 'cause it's an R-rated film (think Dredd or Punisher)! Since 2009, everybody's upset with what Fox did to our favorite Merc with the Mouth! But now, it looks like DP's $130-150 million weekend opening is music to our ears after Fox disappointed us with with their dull-looking "Fantastic" Four last year! Ryan Reynolds may have finally got himself a superhero franchise after the failure that is DC's Green Lantern (please announce the REAL Hal Jordan for the Zack Snyder's Justice League movie, WB)! Everything in Deadpool was just so darn hilarious in a vulgar way, that it really put the Hangover sequels and Ted 2 to shame! It's as though the large amount of comedy found in DP made Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy look like a "b*#*h"! Kudos to the Zombieland writers! If anyone enjoyed the bloody & violent satirical elements of the 1st Kick-Ass, go see this movie instead! I like that the evolution of Wade Wilson to Deadpool (NOT as Weapon XI, with his mouth tightly shut) is a lot more faithful to the comics, particularly his treatment with cancer. That means Fox will have to officially declare that X-Men Origins: Wolverine is NON-CANON with the original X-Men films, even before the timeline wipeout in Days of Future Past. I love how Deadpool is always "breaking the fourth wall" as though he knows he's a part of the movie that we're watching! For example, after the ending credits, Deadpool would see that people at the auditorium theater are still here (obviously) and urged us to go home while hinting of what we might expect in the already-in-development Deadpool sequel (Cable, the time-traveling mutant and future son of Cyclops). Morena Baccarin and Gina Carano are in my opinion the hottest women in the Deadpool movie! I have a feeling that the woman (was very hot in her first scene) who is Wade/Deadpool's girlfriend is now gonna end up completely recognizable after being under the radar even while in TV shows like Homeland and Gotham! My favorite action sequence(s) is/are the car chase and gun fight, which is almost an exact copy of the test footage shown at Comic-Con! The opening credits intro had has laughing big time! But out of all of the entertaining songs in this movie, my favorite is the Salt n Peppa song that I heard in the trailers and during the end credits!
In sharing ties with the X-Men movie universe, even though to me Deadpool is not their type, Colossus is just what he should look like in the comics as opposed to his underdeveloped iteration in the Bryan Singer films. He talks like a true Russian! So funny yet gross when he was disgusted by Deadpool cutting off his own hand-cuffed hand and then vomited when he shot Francis/Ajax in the head while giving a hero doesn't kill speech. The little girl Negasonic Teenage Warhead (Brianna Hildebrand) is pretty cute and definitely the kind of girl most emo and gothic girls should hang out with. Love that Twitter joke before charging in towards Gina Carano!
It's great that Deadpool is finally the movie we've all been waiting for after being let down by the Wolverine prequel spin-off that may as well be treated as a cheap teaser trailer for the potential X-Men spin-offs. If only Venom got the proper movie treatment he deserves if Sony wasn't so greatly focused on letting Marvel use Spider-Man properly while completely in the dark after being upset with Amazing Spider-Man 2. Who needs the Deadpool video game? This movie is worth watching for us fans to entertain ourselves! I had a lot of fun hearing Deadpool joke around with the movie references like the "please don't make the suit green or animated" moment! Surprise that Deadpool is actually more successful than even the previous X-Men films including Days of Future Past. Let's see if this May's X-Men: Apocalypse will try to keep up when delivering a new vision on the new X-Men team's battle with Apocalypse now that Bryan Singer is back at the helm! I don't know what a chimichanga will taste like, but I know it's spicy yet wanting to taste it and feel like I'm now officially pretending to be Deadpool besides Spider-Man or Captain America!
