Transcripts

this is a spoiler-free review if you've

seen Deadpool and Wolverine already keep

the spoilers out of the comments section

anyhow thank you for your patience here

is my Deadpool and Wolverine review

maximum effort no

[Music]

spoilers so Deadpool in Wolverine is the

third Deadpool movie also Deadpool's

entrance into the MCU and I got to say

this is well exactly what the trailer

promised kind of weird that that's a

talking point you know how it is

sometimes you get out of that mov you're

like the trailer looked way different no

this is Deadpool enters the MCU teams up

with Wolverine cuz they got to stop the

bad thing from happening how's that for

vague also cameos references a lot of

fun like that that's what the trailer

promised and that's what you get here

first of all Ryan Reynolds and Hugh

Jackman two actors who are amazingly

cast as these comic book characters

Deadpool and Wolverine they have a

chemistry and Synergy here that really

works in that yin and yang kind of way

Wolverine that angry bitter pained rage

machine with claws that come out of his

hands and Deadpool the MC with the mouth

who will definitely annoy Wolverine

fights are going to happen cherry on top

they both heal when they take damage let

the games begin I don't mind saying the

team up the pairing of these two

characters is downright perfect I also

like how they brought Wolverine in here

again no spoilers don't worry but you

got to admit as we audience members are

watching this we're like Hugh Jackman

had a pretty good sendoff with his

character Wolverine in low

how are they going to do this and not

compromise that but if there's one thing

Deadpool is is self-aware they know the

situation they proceed with the

situation that does feel very Deadpool

they're having fun with the character

but they don't they don't just

completely disregard the fact that they

are still dealing with a comic book

character with an immensely painful past

and it's those moments of heart that I

do really appreciate Deadpool movies

have always shockingly had those just in

the Pres presentation and executioner

like all right MC with the mouth a lot

of comic book movie fun crude crass

humor lot of blood a lot of Gore a lot

of violence let's do it hey here's some

unexpected heart sprinkle in there

that's going to hit you isn't it and now

you have Wolverine lot of pain to draw

from I just appreciate the fact that

they know the characters they're dealing

with but also the audience that loves

those characters that shouldn't be as

rare as it is in the entertainment world

but rare it has become now this does

have references cameos couple of which

one in particular I was like okay

trailers can you stop I don't want to

see everything it's actually one of the

smaller cameos I saw in a trailer but

still I got that feeling of but why' you

show me that so I'm not going to usually

I'd have footage playing as I'm talking

about it not going to have the footage

from the trailer just in case you were

steering clear of the trailers for that

very reason side note while editing this

I'm editing it right now I was looking

at the trailers to get footage for this

review wow don't watch the final trailer

that's come on trailer really you're

going to do that that's that's that's

kind of Dick there is a point where it's

I I don't want to say it feels

exhausting it just doesn't feel new

because cameos for the sake of hey

here's a cameo hope that carries the

film that's not new to the MCU at this

point so it kind of feels like Cameo

porn on the other hand it does feel like

a love letter I do like that whereas

cameos in a Deadpool movie is also

something that the character Deadpool

can Riff on it's ammo at that point so

it serves an extra purpose the action in

the movie is a lot of fun too the

action's bloody the hits are satisfying

there's a sense that they know what the

audience wants to see in a movie with

Deadpool and Wolverine and they make it

happen there's actually one fight

entirely inside a car it's one of the

best ones in the movie I don't know why

I just really liked it now this is very

much Deadpool in the MCU what I mean by

that is the Deadpool movies before that

kind of felt like Underdog comic book

movies comic book movies that weren't

going to get made but that test footage

that was leaked after ComicCon and the

fan reaction that followed got it made

but you can tell they didn't have that

[ __ ] you MCU money so that smaller

budget and that messed up violent tone

is what made it cooler kind of like

comparing Super Nintendo and Sega

Genesis you know the underdog Sega

Genesis being the cool college kids

system might have aged myself with an

entire demographic who just has no idea

but who

knows that's what I do on here I just

speak to what I know and what I remember

and now in Deadpool and Wolverine

everything is undeniably bigger but

better one thing the MCU does really

well is show that bigger isn't always

better even though they're not

necessarily trying to they're trying to

make bigger better like the stakes in

this movie are undeniably bigger but I

felt the stakes in Deadpool 1 and 2 more

this movie does feel self-contained

though I mean it being the MCU TVA tying

it all in but it feels like it's

contained in a bubble I feel like that

might frustrate some people I didn't

need Deadpool and Wolverine to be the

next MCU film I just wanted Deadpool 3

turns outad pool 3 has Hugh Jackman as

Wolverine so it served its purpose for

me there were some juvenile ass jokes

there a lot of dick and ass jokes in

this movie it's that's probably an ad

lib thing it's like cursing not that I

have anything against cursing innately

welcome to my [ __ ] Channel but you

know how when people curse too much

you're like are you just filling the

time like other people say like and um

and you're just filling it in with the

word [ __ ] and it starts to feel lazy at

that point some of the crude humor in

this movie just starts to feel like that

granted the other Deadpool movies had

that also but it's been been years since

and I guess I'm just kind of older now

argument being anything can feel

overplayed if you just do it a lot I

feel like this movie does it a lot maybe

it's another Deadpool self-aware thing

where they're like and this humorous for

all the people watching in the movie

theater who couldn't buy their own

ticket and snuck in enjoy your Summers

back to school in September I don't know

killer soundtrack too I mean the

Deadpool movies have always had good

soundtracks this movie it has a

soundtrack that stands out and they have

fun with the music and the soundtrack

and Deadpool does give some self-de

deprecating humor to the MCU which I

definitely didn't think was going to

happen I thought we were going to feel

Deadpool's hands tied like someone was

in his ear going okay the MCU uh well

you know uh it's uh been a little bumpy

lately but uh you can't reference that

you can't make jokes about that not the

case whatsoever I appreciate that all in

all I had fun with Deadpool and

Wolverine this movie is clearly built

around one premise the Charisma and

chemistry of Ryan Reynolds and Hugh

Jackman coming through on screen as they

play play these characters is the MCU

back I don't know I don't think one good

day or one movie says you're back any

more than one bad day or one bad movie

says you're done I see you reaching for

that keyboard for those Joker comments

about one bad day I see you but this

movie was what I was hoping it was which

was absurdly entertaining that is to say

a fun time no alcohol required all right

so Deadpool and Wolverine have you seen

it what did you think about it and

please no spoilers in the comment

section be nice whatever you thought

comment below let me know and as always
