I had very high hopes for Deadpool just based on the trailer
alone. I knew it would deliver because it was all there in the
trailer. And yes, it delivered and more. The thing that really
struck me about Deadpool was just how much f*cking fun it was.
It just destroyed all these other doom and gloom comic book
movies that seems the norm for the last 15 years. Honestly, I
really don't know why going "dark" and "brooding" is the thing
to do when it comes to other characters and franchises. Yes,
there are some really good ones that use that plot devices, but
that doesn't mean it's fun in the way that Deadpool is. Ryan
Reynolds is perfectly cast as the lead character. I don't think
anyone else out there could have nailed it in the way that he
does. If you have ever read the comic books (which I have), then
you know that humor is the driving force and it's all here and
you can see that Ryan if very fond of the character in his
portrayal.
The jokes, sarcasm, breaking the 4th wall and the copious
amounts of bullets and blood is the hallmark of the books and
translated well onto celluloid. The movie is Rated R for a
reason and they made it count. I loved all the inside jokes,
poking fun at Hugh Jackman and Ryan himself on numerous
occasions. I know that Hugh is set to retire from Wolverine, but
I really hope that he changes his mind so that we can get a
proper Wolverine / Deadpool team up. And no, I don't count that
lame fight between both characters in X-Men Origins: Wolverine

/>There was a lot to like in Deadpool visually as well. Great
stunt work and Special FX. Colossus looked great too and as a
character he was damn funny too. FYI, Deadpool without a doubt
has the best looking Costume out of anyone else in Comic Book
Films. Perfect. The only reason why I give this only 4 Stars was
because the main villain wasn't worthy of Wade Wilson. This was
more or less an Origin Story, so it makes sense to deal with the
guy that f*cked up Wilson, but as the Big Bad, not so much.
Even with that little hiccup, the movie is still awesome. Highly
recommend this one for sure.

I just watched Stan Lee's panel form the Denver Comic-Con and he
raved about the movie, especially the line "I only have 11
shells, some of you are going to have to share."
