An underwhelming first half saved by a great second half.

Rating: 8/10 (19 May 2018)

The movie started off by repeating some of the jokes from the first one. They killed off the henchmen, had Deadpool kill some guys which upset Colossus, and just repeated an occasional line or moment. When Deadpool was in the prison the movie lost a lot of momentum, he wasn't funny, nothing interesting happened and it just felt underwhelming. When X-Force was introduced and was killed off a few minutes later it brought the film back. The comedy became much better and it moved at a faster pace. The action also significantly improved as well and the characters had more meaning. The end credits scenes were also funny and poked fun at themselves. Ultimately, a slow if not bad start saved by a second half comeback.
