I got what I paid for (but would have loved more)

Rating: 6/10 (6 June 2018)

If the first Deadpool was over the top, I guess this one was over the topper? This movie was somehow even more excessive than the first - from violence to vulgarity to so many one-liners that you can barely keep up. Did I chuckle? Absolutely. Quite often, actually. I got exactly what I paid for. But here's the thing: I did not actually care what happened to anybody, which is a kinda important part of storytelling, right? The plot seemed mostly like an excuse for fun music, cool action sequences, and a ton of sarcasm. I knew that going in, so no complaints. But this formula is gonna run out of steam fairly soon. In a year where we're re-discovering comic book comedy, I'd re-watch Thor Ragnarok before I re-watched this one (and it is not especially close)
