Great movie, not the Dark Knight though

Rating: 8/10 (5 March 2017)

This movie was great! And definitely worth a watch.
First I want to talk on this comparison to the Dark Knight which I've seen a lot. As aforementioned, great movie but CERTAINLY not on a Dark Knight level.
Also, I don't think it's even the best Marvel movie when Iron Man is taken into consideration.
However I can understand this overstatement of the movies awesomeness as it strikes a chord with a lot of audiences that are vibing with the funny, realistic, not so good and well, kind of un hero like theme deadpool perfected.
It seems the days of the hero that couldn't get hurt, never swore and could never be phased despite his/or her worldly perils are behind us.
The film writers are able to take Logan (wolverine) from his traditional superhero ways (think X-men and early wolverine) always buttoned up and your favorite G rated bad boy and transform him into deadpools long lost cousin.
One thing this movie really did well was the action, it was intense and you could almost feel the anger portrayed by the characters when fighting, (especially Laura).
Where it loses points in my book is the plot and story depth. I feel like someone who hadn't seen a lot of XMEN and early wolverine wouldn't get the back story nor time to really fall in love with the characters, I would have preferred a little more attention to the past throughout.
Overall: Don't expect to be breathless by the story as you were in the Dark Knight but this movie is a must watch, very well done and the action is top notch! If you liked deadpool, you'll LOVE the new Logan.
