Awesomeness dialled Wade passed eleven

Deadpool
Well what can I say about this movie apart from it's fricking awesome. I haven't laughed this much at a movie for years. There are many movies out considering themselves to be full blown comedies, however they couldn't lace Deadpools boots. It's absolutely refreshing to see a major studio have the balls to make a film like this. They have done the comic books proud keeping Deadpool's character true to the written material. Ryan Reynolds is as if he's been sent down from God to play this part. I can't think of anybody better to wear the mask. Just as Hugh Jackman made the part of Wolverine his own, Reynolds has done the same here. But while the Wolverine standalone films were pretty average at best the Deadpool movie knocks the ball right out of the park. A sublime blend of Humour action and romance make this the unexpected hit of 2016. While this is not a comic book movie that should be shown to children it is a real treat for all us grown-up kids. The story if you are unfamiliar is about a mercenary named Wade Wilson who finds he has cancer and undergoes a horrific experiment to try and cure himself of the disease. The result gives him superior healing powers just like Wolverine. However he is horribly scarred due to the nature of the experiment and because of this he believes he has lost the love of his life. What ensues is an action comedy fest as Deadpool goes on a quest to catch the Man who disfigured him and have him make him look like Ryan Reynolds again. You must watch this film at least four times to catch all the jokes and even then you still missed plenty. The gags come thick and fast delivered superbly by the very funny Reynolds. I could go on all day about some of the sidesplitting moments in this film. But rather than that just rent or buy this film. If you have an ounce of a sense of humour you will be laughing from start to finish.
