“Deadpool 2”: An R-rated Funny “Family” Film
Genre：Action/Adventure/Comedy
Director：David Leitch
Cast：Ryan Reynolds、Josh Brolin、Brianna Hildebrand、T.J. Miller、Terry Crews
Viola's Rating：8.1
Only
three weeks after “Avengers: Infinity War” was released, Marvel Studios couldn’t
wait to release another popular character’s individual feature film. Hyped as
if it’s a “normal” superhero film, being R-rated again, “Deadpool 2” decreases
neither its bloody, gruesome scenes nor its trash-talk, and as a result, it
comes out just as good as the first episode.
Even
though Deadpool always says the genre of his own flick is family, we all know
that it’s an adventurous action comedy about the foul-mouthed mutant mercenary
Wade Wilson (Ryan Reynolds), aka Deadpool, brings together a team of fellow
mutant rogues and recruits some new teammates to protect a young boy of supernatural
abilities from the brutal, time-traveling mutant, Cable.
Before
“Deadpool 2” was officially released, videos of him interacting with Celine
Dion, David Beckham and Hugh Jackman went viral. There are more interesting
cameos in the motion picture waiting for you to discover, and since Wilson was
recruited to a new team of X-men by Wolverine, “Deadpool 2” can be seen as the
introduction of Wilson’s affiliation “X-Force”. Audience gets familiar with
these new characters more in this episode, and according to Ryan Reynolds, the lone
Deadpool will appear in the future franchise with his team.
Cussing
much less than its previous movie, “Deadpool 2” somehow matches “family” genre
a little bit more. Besides, due to Wilson’s own moral regulations and in order
to protect the young boy, Russell, Deadpool behaves much more mature than he
usually does. As for his standard, I guess you can call it a “family” picture.
Known
as the only hero, or anti-hero, who knows that he’s in the feature film and
breaks the fourth wall all the time, Wilson doesn’t talk to moviegoers as much
as he did last time, but he still murmurs, which is one of the most appealing
parts of watching “Deadpool 2”.
From
what occurs before the opening credits to the closing credits, punchlines are
everywhere. From Director David Leitch’s John Wick to the blind character “Blind
Al”, a lot can be found in minute details, and many of the punchlines in “Deadpool
2” don’t surround Wilson, but Dopinder, the taxi driver introduced to the
audience in the last episode and Cable, the new character. Last but not least,
as usual, Ryan Reynolds is made fun of in the film on both his Canadian
identity and the poor Green Lantern experience.
Even
if you follow rules strictly like Captain America or Colossus, “Deadpool 2” won’t
make you uncomfortable, just about as awkward as the first episode, and if you
love his trash-talk, you’re most welcomed to meet his new affiliation “X-Force”
since “Deadpool 2” is a wonderful family flick.
