Great Action & Laughs, But NOT For The Kids

Rating: 9/10 (19 May 2018)

I saw "Deadpool 2", starring Ryan Reynolds-The Hitman's Bodyguard, The Amityville Horror_2005; Josh Brolin-Avengers:Infinity War, Men in Black 3; Morena Baccarin-Gotham_tv, Still Life_tv and Julian Dennison-Hunt For the Wilderpeople, Shopping.
This is the sequel to the 2016 Deadpool and they have already green lit a 3rd sequel. Ryan returns as Deadpool, "The Merc with a Mouth". And before I go any further, let me stress, this is not a kiddie super hero movie. Lots of language, violence, gore, body parts being dismembered, nudity, etc. This is an "R" rated movie-so don't take the little tykes to see it, because I saw parents with little ones in the theater I was in and it wasn't a pretty sight. Anyway, back to the movie. Josh plays Cable-comic fans know who his father is-a man from the future on a mission to kill Julian, a young mutant that will become a villain where Josh is from. Ryan befriends Julian in prison and tries to save him from the time-traveling Josh's wraith. Morena also returns as Ryan's beautiful girlfriend. The humor is great-lots of references to current events-and there are lots of cameos, including other heroes and actors in small parts-I remember seeing Brad Pitt and Matt Damon, one as a hero and one as a redneck. One person I did not see was Stan Lee! No cameo for him-maybe because of the R rating? But no, he was in the first Deadpool, so, what the heck? Oh well. There is a great scene, just as the end credits begin, involving time travel but there is nothing at the very end.
It's rated "R" for violence, gore, language, drug use, drinking and sexual content-including graphic nudity-and has a running time of 1 hour & 59 minutes.
I really enjoyed this movie and would buy it on Blu-Ray.
