Ryan Reynolds "gets it"

Rating: 10/10 (3 June 2016)

Golf clap for Ryan Reynolds and the team that brought this film together. For all the wrongs in super hero cinema, Deadpool will give you hope that it will be all right. Of course, then 'they' released X-Men: Apocalypse...
Deadpool is not the greatest movie ever made. No super hero movie ever will be and Ryan Reynolds likely did not set out to make the greatest movie ever made. But what he did accomplish with Deadpool is something more important to the future of the genre. He has the credibility to trust his instincts and to make super hero films fans want. He is an authority now and the success of Deadpool will reverberate through Hollywood. This will transcend into other genres as well; such as sci-fi and fantasy (Star Wars, I am staring directly at you right now... don't divert your eyes from me I'm going to make this hella awkward for you right now)
Reynolds and company captured everything that makes the Deadpool comic loved and successfully transferred it to the big screen. He even corrected long-time failures like Colossus and was able to make a seemingly absurd and obscure character, Nega Sonic Teenage Warhead (did i get that right?), relevant, relatable, likable and memorable. What's more is he did all this while not diverting from the central story with cloddish origin stories or other blockbuster tropes.
I don't write reviews but this film left me so happy after years of disappointment with my favorite properties that I was compelled to publish something to show my gratitude. RR, please executive produce every Marvel film from here on out because you get it.
Thank you.
P.S. Singer and Abrams can eat a d***.
