Deadpool

Hello Everyone, 

Spoiler Alert!!!!!

     Well now is the time for another review. I know I haven't posted anything new for a few weeks, I just have been busy. But now I found the time to write. This film I was unsure if it was going to be any good and it really surprised me that it was and it was entertaining. I was expecting the lead actor to just really not being good and just really sucked at the role. But he was in fact surprising good in the film. If they make more films based in this character, I will most likely go and see them. So let's get started with the review of Deadpool.

     Let's start with the material. Now I don't know that much about Deadpool but from what I already knew and from what I looked up online it does seem to be more authentic to the comics then that awful Wolverine: Origins movie. One way from what I found out is that Deadpool does seem to break the forth wall which is what he does throughout the entire film. That had to be my favorite thing about the film because forth wall breaks make the movie or show that you are watching funnier. Just to be clear for those of you who don't know what a forth wall break is? A forth wall break is when a character looks and speaks directing to the audience. Another way the movie seems to be closer to the comics is the character's backstory and how he becomes Deadpool seems to be right on the market. Which is probably the reason the film has been so successful because it follows the source material with accuracy. 

     Now speaking on the acting, Ryan Reynolds really surprised me and was good. Especially because we saw in the Wolverine film where he came across as egotistical and just plain stupid. And we all knew about the Green Lantern fiasco I guess is what you can call it. But unlike those films you actually felt bad for the character and really wanted him to win and Ryan Reynolds did a terrific job at portraying the emotions he was supposed to be feeling. Now for all you Firefly fans out there then you should know that they had Inara, herself Morena Baccarin to play Deadpool's love interest. And she was as lovable and badass as she was in Firefly. Her character could really hold her own against Deadpool and also no matter what he looked like she loved him unconditionally. Which was a really good message for the film. All the actors really played their characters well and played off of each other well. 

     I think the reason the film is so successful and the acting so great is because the movie is well written. Because if the writing is weak then even the best special effects, the best acting etc is not going to make the entire final product any good. This is not the case with Deadpool. The writing is strong and it makes everything else that much better. The film was better then I expected it to be. If you guys do go see it make sure to stay til the end of the credits because there is a fun little scene that will have you laughing before you leave the theater.
