“You're
probably thinking "This is a superhero movie, but that guy in the suit
just turned that other guy into a fucking kebab." Surprise, this is a
different kind of superhero story.”
I like superhero movies. I am obsessed with Captain
America I can watch that movie all the time. Marvel is fantastic with their
superheroes they are perfection, I don’t know about, but I am feeling a bit of
a burn out with Marvel movies. They are tending to be the same with a little
tweaks depending who the superhero is. Most of them are getting mushy and
really over dramatic. Please do not throw things at me with my feelings and
observations I do like the Marvel movies but I am allowed to get a burn out! My
burnout was cured and my interest renewed in Marvel with the release of their
hilarious anti-hero Deadpool.
Wade Wilson (Ryan Reynolds) was once in the military until
he was dishonorably discharged and now works as a mercenary. His life really
did not have too much meaning until he met Vanessa. The two fall in love pretty
much right away. Their happiness comes to a grinding halt when Wade is
diagnosed with terminal cancer.
One night while at his local bar Wade is told some guy is
waiting for him. The guy offers Wade the opportunity to be cancer free. Wade is
skeptical at first but he loves Vanessa and wants the chance to spend the rest
of his life with her. He goes to a warehouse where a guy known as Ajax is
performing experiments. Ajax tells Wade that he is experimenting on giving
people super powers. Wade being the joker and pain in the ass that he is never
shuts up and once he finds out Ajax’s real name is Francis he becomes
relentless. And because Wade keeps making fun of Ajax, Ajax puts him into this
machine that deprives Wade of oxygen. The oxygen deprivation winds up doing
something to Wade’s skin and he looks like a nasty old man.
Eventually makes it out of the warehouse and with the
superpower of healing. For the next year Wade works on seeking his revenge. He comes
close to killing Francis on a bridge but he gets away all due to two X-Men
trying to help him.
That is all I am going to say about Deadpool because it
is so good and insanely hysterical.
I loved Deadpool
literally from the moment it started. The credits are a fucking panic. Every
line that Wade speaks is full of the best sarcasm and wit. Deadpool is the best
anti-hero I have ever seen in a movie. I am so damn happy Deadpool was made and that it is currently doing so well in
theaters. I tend to root more for the snarky, sarcastic, anti-hero characters
in stories than I do the straight-laced-and-have-their-shit-together
characters. Ryan Reynolds was beyond brilliant he was so perfect in the role. I
am praying that Marvel makes another Deadpool
movie because I want to see more of the character and Ryan Reynolds playing
him.
If you have yet to see Deadpool you are a crazy person and need
to see it as soon as possible.
