Exactly What a Fan Would Hope for, and More

Rating: 10/10 (20 February 2016)

I will start off by saying that there are a few stipulations to my rating for the more casual movie-goers.

It is not a movie like other Marvel movies or even superhero movies in general, nor is it intended to be.

It is very loyal to the source material so people who are fans of the series/ people who understand the essence of the Deadpool character will have a great time.

It is not a movie I would take kids under the age of maybe 16 to (unless you're a cool parent). If you are you are a younger person going to the movie, I would really recommend going without your parents, it would be pretty awkward at times otherwise.(Additionally if you are from a part of Canada {like myself} where the movie is rated 14A, you should know that rating really stretches the limits of what can be considered a 14A movie.)

If you are fine with movies that feature lots of swearing, violence, and nudity, then it is great for you.

With these points in mind, I loved the movie. It's really clever, nice simple story and with a nice pace that doesn't devolve into some of the annoying superhero movie tropes. For fans of Tarantino's style of humour and violence, this is the perfect movie. At times it can be really raunchy, but it still has its heartwarming moments. I'll probably return to the theatre to see it at least once more.
