This is what's wrong with Blockbusters today

Rating: 4/10 (7 November 2018)

In Deadpool 2 you can find lots of ingredients that are wrong about current Blockbusters under a magnifying glass. Here are some examples.
1. The good guy kills everyone but is mortified when a single person that accidentally means something to him dies. So he kills more people. Common practice in movies and politics.
2. How can the hero mean something if nothing can reeeeaally happen to him?
3. Using the R-rating as an excuse to squeeze in as much "dirty words" that wouldn't shock an 8 year old orphan.
4. Violence for the sake of violence. It doesn't mean anything and doesn't increase the fun in any way. Cgi limbs and blood always look fake.
5. Being 'meta' just to please the nerds and make people think of how clever they are to understand the popcultural references. In ten to fifteen years this movie will probably be terribly dated because of that.
6. Weakening every half emotional or serious scene with a laugh. This movie is so scared of allowing any real feeling that you can feel sorry for it. Why bother with showing serious stuff when nothing of it has any impact on the audience?
7. Plot seems to be overrated. Why confuse us with a real story when it's so much more entertaining to kill more people and drop more 'witty' oneliners?
I don't want to sound like an arthouse guru because I'm not. If you're one of those who can switch off their brains while watching a movie and are not appalled by the things I mentioned, this is your movie. It looks cool, it's loud and it doesn't expect a lot from its viewers.
If you want a good comic book movie, return to Logan, The Dark Knight, Superman or even Howard the Duck.
