Deadpool (2016) review

Rated 'R'

Rarely does Hollywood get it right when bringing a new franchise from another medium to the big screen. Deadpool (2016) was the perfect example of what happens when you let people that know and love a franchise have a full creative control. Ryan Reynolds had been trying to get this film made for a while and it looks like all the hard work is paying off with this film.

It's hard to tell a story about a character that knows he is a character in a film. When the word came out about a Deadpool film it  was probably hard to imagine how one could be made about character that breaks the fourth wall as often as Deadpool does. Rest assured comic book fans, Reynolds does a great job bringing everything that people love about Deadpool to the big screen.

The classification of an action/comedy has definitely changed with this movie. The action is superb and the comedy coming from "the merc with a mouth" is almost non-stop, even when the film makes an attempt at any seriousness. All of which are good for a film about Wade Wilson. One thing of note for X-men fans, this is probably the best version of Colossus in a film we have ever seen.

The film is rated 'R' and certainly not intended for children so if the MPAA rating isn't warning enough, you should do your homework on the character before going to buy your ticket. See it with your friends and leave the kids at home.

Attention parents! Deadpool is rated 'R'

That means, it's not intended for you to bring your kiddies to. Please don't complain when it comes out this weekend that it has somehow scarred your children. That is what the 'R' rating exists to tell you. The film is not made for your kids if you have to tell them to watch their mouths. Deadpool is known as "the Merc with a mouth" for a reason.

This happens in the video game industry all the time, some parent will unwillingly buy their kid the latest Grand Theft Auto because they are begging for it.  The MPAA exists to inform those that want to avoid anything offensive, so please take heed of the rating. The film was made for fans of the character and we are all adults that know what to expect.

If you want to do some homework on the character, click the image above and pick up Marvel's complete collection on the character.

We've been waiting a long time for this film and are looking forward to a successful release. See the latest trailer below:

New Deadpool movie poster

Is anybody looking forward to the Deadpool movie as much as we are?  Of course there is, the "Merc with a mouth" is the most cos-played out character at every comic-con for a reason. Last spring we got updated on the production of the film, then with all the new comic book stuff we have been hit with lately, we got this:

"Coming soon", not soon enough.

Deadpool Movie Update

Anybody that is a fan of the "Merc with a Mouth" will be glad to know filming has begun and we are all closer to the Deadpool movie. If you have a twitter account you should be following Ryan Reynolds on twitter as he updates fans on the long awaited film.

He tweeted a peek at the costume recently:

He also tweeted where the idea came from:

As long as he's at the helm the movie looks like it will be safe and true to the source material.

Deadpool Movie is getting made.

    If you haven't heard by now, Marvel is finally going to make a Deadpool film.  Long time and old school comic book readers will be happy to see our fourth wall breaking favorite Merc with a mouth on the big screen.  Hopefully it will be done right and even though Ryan Reynolds played the bad version of Deapool, the characters fourth wall awareness might be an easy way to correct that.

The move forward was due to Deadpool test footage released a few weeks back, if you have not seen it you can watch it below.  The reaction to it was enough for Twentieth Century Fox to go ahead and green light a film for this awesome character according to The Telegraph.   According to Reynolds in The Telegraph article,

There was such an overpowering reaction to the footage, you sort of feel like, 'Oh, so we weren't crazy for our reasons for loving this character, for loving this role.'

He credits social media for the help of finally moving forward in a film a lot of people have been waiting for.

Deadpool movie..C'mon already!!!

     The character of Deadpool has been deserving of a  movie for a while, Ryan Reynolds can play him correctly since he's got a good reputation of playing wise-cracking characters and has been "championing Deadpool for years and several directors enthusiastically circled the project – chief among them were Robert Rodriguez and music video helmsman (and current Videodrome remake shot-caller) Adam Berg." according to the web site Geeks of Doom.

Let's hope they make it before Ryan Reynolds gets old.

If you don't know much about Deadpool, that's fine he breaks the fourth wall with his readers a lot and I for one am looking forward to seeing this transition to film.  I have personally stopped reading Marvel comics since the whole Disney thing and it may be just a personal thing that I think their influence can potentially ruin a film.  That may be the hold up for this one as Deadpool would need plenty of violence and gore to play on the exaggerated violence Hollywood films can produce.  The Geeks of Doom article notes Reynolds hinting to that fact in an interview he did where he states, “[In] its current iteration the movie’s actually very small. There’s minimal impact to the studio, which is the way we’re kind of presenting it to them. We’re saying ‘Look, the budget is minimal. Therefore, can we do this the way it should be done?’ Which unfortunately needs a Rated R or it needs those elements.”

I was collecting many Deadpool comics before Marvel started getting on my nerves and ruined one of my favorite characters by hitting reset on his life with The Amazing Spider-man and the Brand New Day storyline.  The Disney buy out news followed soon after that, lets hope Reynolds, Rodriguez and Miller can be successful in making it happen.
