Perfect for people who like tongue-in-cheek blood-baths

Rating: 7/10 (11 December 2019)

Marvel anti-superhero (super anti-hero?) Deadpool (Ryan Reynolds) deals with a potentially rogue mutant, a cyborg assassin from the future, and guilt feelings about his recently deceased girlfriend, all while managing to keep up a never-ending stream of one-liners, insults and wise-cracks. A sequels go, this one isn't too bad and, since it doesn't differ much from the first entry in the series, if you liked that one, you'll probably like this one too (although the novelty of a foul-mouthed pseudo-X-Man mutant-hero has worn off somewhat). To some viewers (such as me), the constant jokes and meta-humour gets a bit old after a while but, as the film is far from narrative driven, I guess it delivers on what is promised, and expected.
