Critics Consensus

Fast, funny, and gleefully profane, the fourth-wall-busting Deadpool subverts superhero film formula with wildly entertaining -- and decidedly non-family-friendly -- results.

3/4

This is a fun, hyper-violent, gleefully perverse frolic into the super-powered absurd.

Miller’s movie doesn’t need to be a bonafide masterpiece to be a perfect movie in its own regard, and Deadpool certainly is that. Maximum effort!

2.5/5

“Deadpool” is essentially an origin story and not a particularly original one. But its hope is that you’ll be so involved in the comic mayhem that you won’t care.

Deadpool mostly works at what it is trying to do- be a sarcastic and violent parody of superhero movies up until that point.

This is my comfort movie. Wade Wilson’s witty humor is unbelievably funny, something that is brought out further by Ryan Reynolds’s portrayal. The film’s use of fourth wall break combined with perfect timing is always a great. It has many tidbits for Marvel fans and won’t let them down. But even if you’re not a huge Marvel fan, this is still a treat.

Fantastic movie man I love most of the things about this film that shown me how to be mature for every reason and that’s how Ryan Reynolds presents here, the comic book character that we wanted for so long in his own story every since the awful X-men origins Wolverine that rage me so much but this changed everything that I hated about that movie to love the character of Deadpool in every single aspect.
