"Bad ass. Smart ass. Great ass."
The most awaited release of the year and my first R-rated movie! Presenting to you: Deadpool!! To be honest, I'd lost hope of being able to watch this in the cinema, but luckily for me, the attendants here in Bangalore don't check your age!
A former Special Forces soldier-turned mercenary, Wade Wilson is just about to get married and settle down when he is diagnosed with terminal cancer. Believing that Ajax can save him, Wade signs up for a 'treatment', which disfigures his face and leaves him with an accelerated healing ability and a dark, twisted sense of humour. With help from two of the X-Men, Negasonic Teenage Warhead and Colossus, Deadpool sets out to exact revenge on the man who destroyed his life.
Oh, how I wish Deadpool was a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe! It would have been great to see Deadpool with all the other Marvel characters, especially Spider-Man! Anyways, for the film, I barely have any criticisms at all. First, the acting. Ryan Reynolds' performance was top-notch. He is the perfect Deadpool/Wade Wilson we know and love from the comics. He acted great. I also liked how Deadpool was always breaking the fourth wall, bringing the audience into the story wherever possible. The humour also kept me in splits throughout. There was not one scene which was boring. One aspect I particularly liked was how the filmmakers managed to put all the scenes together. There were a lot of flashback scenes, but the way they were stitched together and their fluidity made everything fall into place quite well. The only complaint I have is that the plot was clichéd. I've seen so many movies where the main character sets out for revenge against a more powerful villain, who kidnaps the hero's girlfriend for leverage. Anyways, this was a great movie, and I can't wait for the sequel!
