SPOILERS ALERT!!!

Tim sits at his computer, listlessly listening and not looking happy.

Deadpool: Come on! Come on, Timmy boy! You know you want to. You want to unleash your manly love of how awesome I’ve been lately. Come on, come on, come on, Tim. Don’t act like you don’t want to.

Tim Bradley: (annoyed) Alright, fine. I’ll do the review if you just shut up!

Deadpool mimics zipping across his mouth.

---

(sighs) Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

As you can tell, it’s time for me to do my review on the latest ‘Deadpool’ movie ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’, which is currently at cinemas as we speak. This happens to be the third film released in the ‘Deadpool’ film series and it’s the first one that’s featured in the ‘Marvel Cinematic Universe’. 😐

---

Tim: (to Deadpool) You know, there is going to be a point where I’ll be revisiting the movie in full detail soon, so I don’t see why I should bother doing a quick review of it following its cinematic release.

Deadpool: Oh, I’m sorry. Err, how many ‘Deadpool’ movies have you reviewed on your blog so far?

Tim: Three, if you count ‘X-Men Origins: Wolverine’.

Deadpool: And how many of those movies have you done what you call ‘in-depth’ reviews on?

Tim: (feeling awkward) Look, I was planning to do in-depth reviews on the first two ‘Deadpool’ movies, Wade, but I got side-tracked. I got busy; it happens. Hopefully, I’ll do a ‘Deadpool Film Review Season’ someday for my blog’s 10th anniversary and include ‘Logan’ in there somewhere, which I’ve not seen yet by the way.

Deadpool: Shame on you, Tim. Though I deny Logan died in that movie.

Tim: Look, Deadpool. For a third movie, you’d really have to sell it to your audience. Otherwise, you’d end up like the ‘Venom’ films where the third film appears to be lacklustre somehow.

Deadpool: Oh, I’ve got so many fantastic cameos that will excite fans across the world in this new movie I’m in.

Tim: After two ‘Deadpool’ movies, I don’t think you’re going to get much attention for it…

Wolverine: Except with me in it, bub.

Tim: (realises; relents) Yeah, except with you in it. Hello, Logan, welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’.

Deadpool: Aren’t you dead?

Wolverine: Do I have to work with the mother-flipping clown again? The one won’t stop flipping talking. (realises) And what’s this with me saying flip? When I say flip, I say flip instead. Flip, flip, flip. FLIP OFF!

Tim: Just because you two have foul mouths in your movie, doesn’t mean I have to allow it in this review. That’s the power of editing. I can censor what obscenities I like.

Wolverine: Go flip yourself.

Deadpool: Flip, flip, flip. Darn, I can’t say flip!!!

Wolverine: (annoyed) FLIP!!!!!!!!!!! FLIP!!!!!!!!!! DARN!

Deadpool: (to Wolverine) This little flipper doesn’t know how to grow up, does he?

Tim: I think the ‘Spider-Man’ movies have more dignity than your films, Wade.

Deadpool: They’re PG -13 family-friendly twaddle, Tim.

Timelord007: Whoa! The Sam Raimi film trilogy is an awesome set of ‘Spider-Man’ movies. Lay off them, Wade.

Tim: Oh, hi, Timelord. Nice to have you with us again. It’s been a while, hasn’t it?

Deadpool: Didn’t he leave the Divergent Universe forum recently to become a monk? Like his idol, Tom Baker?

Timelord007: Left the forum, yes. Become a monk, no.

Wolverine: I heard he got flipping upset over the flipping new season of ‘Doctor Who’ and he had a flipping hissy fit.

Timelord007: If you’d seen that series, Logan, you’d been clawing the TV screen in full berserker rage mode.

Tim: Can we keep the references to the latest ‘Doctor Who’ TV series to a minimum, please?

Deadpool: Oh, Timelord007 hating on ‘Doctor Who’. I never thought I’d see the day. Maybe he’s going through male menopause. I mean, he’s approaching 50 next year.

Wolverine: Common in middle-aged men.

Timelord007: Err, can we stop discussing my hormones and my reactions to the new ‘Doctor Who’ please. We’re here to review your movie.

Deadpool + Wolverine: (in unison) Yup, male menopause.

Tim: Look, you three. Whilst you three have your fun talk, do you mind if I just carry on with the review?

Timelord007: Seems I’ve passed my male menopause onto Tim.

Deadpool: Yes, he seems to be having a hot flush.

Wolverine: Maybe his cuddly toy dog Cuddles has been kidnapped.

Timelord007: I hate that mutt!

Deadpool + Wolverine: (in unison) Cuddles is awesome! We love Cuddles!

Whilst Deadpool, Timelord007 and Wolverine chatter away, Tim continues…

It’s actually fascinating how these ‘Deadpool’ films have turned out so far. I’m not really what you would consider a ‘Deadpool’ fan, even through the movies. I’ve certainly enjoyed them, but I wouldn’t say these movies have been ‘must-watch-again’ films for me, despite their entertainment value. It’s the adult content that puts me off quite often. The violence, the foul language, even the constant sexual innuendos. I appreciate that this is something a lot of people can get into, but it’s not really for me.

So, what is it about the ‘Deadpool’ movies that has me returning to them? 🙂 Well, it might have something to do with the fact that Ryan Reynolds is the driving force behind these movies. His energy, enthusiasm and constant fourth wall-breaking in playing the character is so magnetic. So long as you have a strong stomach and can cope with the adult content in the films, you’re likely to have a good time. That’s certainly the case when I checked out the third instalment of the ‘Deadpool’ film series, ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’.

Except this time, it’s not a 20th Century Fox film. Nor is it part of the ‘X-Men’ film series. At least, I don’t think so. This is the first Disney-produced ‘Deadpool’ film ever made in the ‘MCU’ film series. Judging by how Disney handles its content nowadays through various mediums and franchises, I’m surprised they were daring enough to do a film like ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’, especially considering that it’s full of adult content, which is really an uncommon thing for a traditional ‘MCU’ film.

The point I’m trying to make here is, does this film satisfy in being a ‘MCU’ film as well as a ‘Deadpool’ film? Is it a reasonably balanced movie in terms of delivering both sides of the film at the same time? Can I say that this is a film I’d like to revisit for future viewings on whatever platform?

---

Deadpool: He says this now, but he’s going to love R-rated Marvel films more and more as time goes on, including your ‘Logan’, Logan.

Wolverine: I heard my flipping death was flipping moving.

Timelord007: (upset) It should not have happened. Why did you have to die in that movie, Logan?! It was so depressing!

Wolverine: Is he always this emotional?

Deadpool: Don’t sweat it, dude. He’s just a guy who takes a while to man up.

Timelord007: I heard that, Wade!

---

(continues) Let’s find out. These are my current thoughts on ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’.

The film opens with the Marvel Studios logo featuring a shot of Deadpool from the first movie, I believe. Deadpool also hums the fanfare at the end. I’m quite surprised the entire Marvel Studios logo didn’t have Deadpool in every shot of the letters, as I was expecting that to happen in the logo.

We then have an opening sequence where Deadpool is digging Wolverine up from the grave – Incidentally, I don’t think you don’t need to worry about seeing ‘Logan’ before this movie. I certainly didn’t when I saw ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ at the cinema – and we get to see Wolverine’s adamantium skeleton. Hmm. It’s a bit gruesome, but…it’s ‘Deadpool’, what did you expect?

And we then have a fight scene where Deadpool is shooting down some TVA guards (the Time Variance Agency from the ‘Loki’ series in case you haven’t seen that series on Disney+ yet – I’ve only seen Season 1 by the way). Accompanying that is the opening credits. And they’re not like stupid Honest Trailers names credits as in the first two movies. These are proper opening credits listing the film’s cast and crew. Hmm. Marvel Studios must have persuaded Deadpool to go a step-up.

And if that wasn’t enough, we have the NSYNC song ‘Bye Bye Bye’ from ‘X-Men 2’ featured in the opening credits of the film. There’s no getting past me, movie. I recognised the music and the singer when hearing the song in the opening credits.

---

Deadpool: And people are already making videos of it on YouTube. My influence is so flipping powerful, isn’t it?

---

We then have a flashback sequence where in 2018, presumably after the time-travel post-credits scenes in ‘Deadpool 2’, Wade Wilson gets to visit the ‘MCU’ and meets Jon Favreau as Happy Hogan. Whilst it’s nice to see Happy in the film, I’m saddened Wade didn’t get to meet Tony Stark. Deadpool and Tony Stark in the same room would have been hilarious.

---

Deadpool: Well, at least he’s not Dr. Doom!

Tim: Seriously? That’s happening? That’s got to be a joke!

Timelord007: Robert Downey Jr. as Dr. Doom?! I’m speechless! I think Marvel has lost the plot and jumped the shark with this bizarre casting choice. Robert is Iron Man and I don’t think an evil Tony Stark variant is a step in the right direction. Cillian Murphy would have been a far better casting choice.

---

After Wade is rejected to join the Avengers in the ‘MCU’, we cut to six years later – Checking my calculator. Err, 2018 plus 6 equals 2024. Yes, that’s about right – where he’s retired from being the merc with the mouth and is working as a used car salesman. A bit of a low point, but whatever. We then see him celebrating his birthday with his friends, including Rob Delaney as Peter Wisdom, Leslie Uggams as Blind Al, Karan Soni as Dopinder, Brianna Hildebrand as Negasonic Teenage Warhead, Shioli Kutsuna as Yukio, Randal Reeder as Buck, Lewis Tan as Shatterstar and Colossus, voiced by Stefan Kapičić.

---

Deadpool: Yep! All my family is there for my birthday.

Tim: Are you sure about that, Wade?

Deadpool: Yep. Everyone is there. I’m not missing anyone out.

Tim: But…what about Weasel…?

Deadpool: We don’t…talk about him anymore, understand?

Tim: Okay, okay, whatever you say.

---

Morena Baccarin as Vanessa is also there for Wade’s birthday party. Except Wade broke up with her in the time between ‘Deadpool 2’ and this film. I’m sensing a pattern in these movies. It’s almost like Wade doesn’t want to continue the love story he had with Vanessa in the first film in these sequels.

---

Deadpool: Hey, that’s not what the audience came to see now, is it? They want to see the love story going on between me and Logan, right?

Tim: Wait a minute, now I think about it, weren’t you supposed to be a daddy in the second movie? You said at the end of the second film you were ‘definitely going to name’ your kid ‘Cher’. Whatever happened to that storyline? Has that been forgotten or is that something that’s far too complex for me to understand?

Deadpool: Look, Tim, just focus on the here and now, not on what could have flipping been. If we don’t address it, you don’t flipping question it.

---

(sighs) So, anyway, Wade gets kidnapped by the TVA and he’s offered to have a place in the ‘MCU’. I wondered why Owen Wilson’s character wasn’t in this film considering he featured prominently in the ‘Loki’ series. But then again, I suppose you can’t have him in the film, since you’ve got to have the British sort-of villain in the form of Mr. Darcy from ‘Pride & Prejudice’. That’s the 2005 film version of Darcy played by Matthew Macfadyen. Not the 1995 BBC TV version of Darcy played by Colin Firth.

---

Deadpool: Err, his name is Mr. Paradox in the movie, Tim. Not Mr. Darcy.

Tim: Yeah, I know, it’s just easier for me to call him and remember him as Mr. Darcy, since I’ve seen the 2005 ‘Pride & Prejudice’ film so often.

Timelord007: I don’t watch ‘Pride & Prejudice’. Too sloppy for me.

Wolverine: Is there going to be a flipping point when you’re going to get to flipping me, bub?

Tim: Yes, don’t worry, Logan. We’re getting to you very steadily.

---

(clears throat) So, it turns out Wade’s timeline is deteriorating. Not sure if that’s the actual 20th Century Fox ‘X-Men’ timeline or if Deadpool’s timeline is totally separate from the 20th Century Fox ‘X-Men’ films – both with Patrick Stewart and James McAvoy.

---

Deadpool: Timelines are so confusing, aren’t they, Tim?

Tim: You’re telling me. I’m having to work out all the ‘Doctor Who’ timelines I’m putting together on my blog.

Timelord007: Your ‘Doctor Who’ timelines are still amazing, Tim.

Tim: Thank you, Timelord.

---

(continues) Of course, the reason why Deadpool’s timeline is deteriorating is because of the death of Logan from…well, ‘Logan’. It turns out Logan is the timeline’s stabilising ‘anchor being’.

---

Surprised, Tim, Timelord007 and Deadpool look suspiciously at Wolverine.

Tim: Seriously?

Wolverine: My death must have been more flipping moving than I flipping thought.

---

(continues) Eventually, the movie becomes ‘Deadpool in the Multiverse of Madness’ as Wade steals Darcy’s TemPad to travel the multiverse to find a variant of Logan to save his timeline. And he comes across a lot of Logans, including one played by…Henry Cavill? Oh. So, this is Henry Cavill’s debut in the ‘MCU’. I wonder if any future ‘X-Men’ films are going to feature him as the character and not Hugh Jackman.

---

Timelord007: Henry Cavill as Wolverine is definitely one of my favourite bits in the movie.

Deadpool: I’m so pleased I made you wet from seeing that, Simon.

---

Very soon, Deadpool finds a Logan variant, played by Hugh Jackman – who wears a Wolverine outfit that matches the one he wore in the comics and the 1990s TV show. Hey, that’s rather cute, I like it – and he takes him back to the TVA. And it turns out he’s the worst Wolverine in the multiverse. I don’t know how that’s possible, but okay. If the film says he’s the worst, he must be. I mean, he certainly is when he’s as foul-mouthed as Deadpool in this film.

---

Timelord007: Excellent to see Hugh Jackman return and I was very intrigued how they were going to achieve this. I liked that this Wolverine variant was flawed and not a heroic X-Man, so we go on a journey with this version of the character. And when he finally puts on the mask, we see he’s become the Wolverine we know and love.

Wolverine: I like you, Timelord. You’ve got tastes.

---

After arguing with Mr. Darcy, Deadpool and Wolverine get sent to the Void – which looks like a barren wasteland instead of nothing. You know, at least my version of the Void in the short story ‘Into the Death-Space’ matches to how David Tennant described it in ‘Army of Ghosts’/’Doomsday’.

---

Tim: Also, seriously, Deadpool? You had to have the 20th Century Fox logo situated in your version of the Void. That’s…that’s really subtle, that. Yeah, well done. Why don’t you just throw in the Disney logo and have it be the monster that attacks everyone who lives in the Void?

Deadpool: That’s actually an idea saved for ‘Deadpool 4’, Tim.

---

(groans) After a fight scene between Wade and Logan – Yes, they fight in the film. You know, you could easily have called this ‘Deadpool v Wolverine: Dawn of Justice’….

---

Deadpool: How many times do I have to keep telling you, Tim. Not flipping references to DC. This is Marvel we’re in. Not pooey DC

Wolverine: Well, at least Henry Cavill plays me…

Deadpool: Oh, pee off!

---

(continues) …It’s not long before our two heroes meet Chris Evans, who happens to be…Johnny Storm a.k.a. the Human Torch from the 2005 to 2007 ‘Fantastic Four’ movies? And he’s soon killed off by Emma Corrin as Cassandra Nova, the twin sister of Charles Xavier, the leader of the X-Men? And in a rather brutal way?

---

Deadpool: And I thought he was Captain America this whole time. (laughs) What a dumbbell I was then.

Tim: Yeah, it’s just…um…

Deadpool: What?

Tim: I hope this isn’t the actual Chris Evans as Johnny Storm from the ‘Fantastic Four’ films and is an alternative version of the character. I know people have criticised the 2005 and 2007 ‘Fantastic Four’ films over the years, but I do have a soft spot for them. And to see Chris Evans as Johnny Storm (who I prefer over Michael B. Jordan’s version in the 2015 film) being killed off in that brutal manner feels…wrong somehow.

Deadpool: Oh, come on, it’s just a bit of fun, Tim. Stop being such a wuzzy and grow some walnuts. No need to cry over one of your heroes being killed off.

Tim: Well, it’s just such a shame you didn’t have Patrick Stewart appearing in this film as an evil Charles Xavier. I would have enjoyed that more than the actual villain we got in Cassandra Nova. Nothing to do with Emma Corrin’s performance by the way, I just think Patrick Stewart would have been more domineering as a villain than Emma Corrin.

Timelord007: Yeah, I have to agree with Tim on that, Wade. The villain was okay in serving the story, but Cassandra Nova wasn’t the scariest or the most threatening villain. That might be down to the performer playing her or the script.

Deadpool: Hey, I co-wrote the script. Come on, you two, give this a chance. There’s bound to be more things for you to like than to flipping criticise.

Tim: (sighs) You’re right, of course. We should be more open-minded about these things as the film progresses. Let’s continue and see what happens.

---

The film’s cast also includes Dafne Keen as Laura a.k.a. X-23…who was in ‘Logan’, apparently.

---

Wolverine: Should I know this kid?

Deadpool: It’s nothing for you to worry about. Though you have a nice scene with her in this film.

Wolverine: Yeah, I do, don’t I? I look forward to getting to know her more.

Timelord007: Hopefully, it shouldn’t lead you to ending up dead.

Wolverine: What the flip did he just say?

Deadpool: Again, nothing for you to worry about. (tells off) Timelord, you naughty boy!

Timelord007: I just really hate that movie ending!

---

There’s also Jennifer Garner as Elektra Natchios from the ‘Daredevil’ and ‘Elektra’ films – Hey, it’s nice to see her in this. 🙂 A shame Ben Affleck isn’t playing Matt Murdock/Daredevil in this film, but you can’t have it all. There’s also Wesley Snipes as Eric Brooks a.k.a. Blade from the ‘Blade’ film trilogy… (realises) Oh, now I get why he’s in this film. It’s because Ryan Reynolds was in ‘Blade: Trinity’, wasn’t it? Ha, ha, very cute.

---

Timelord007: When Blade appeared, I completely lost it! Wesley Snipes kicking butt again as Blade had the fanboy in me freaking out hysterically.

Deadpool: I’m glad I made you wet your pants again, Simon.

Tim: Deadpool, stop being so disgusting!

Wolverine: You think that’s bad? You didn’t have to flipping put up with this flipping loser for over 2 hours.

Tim: I’m surprised you two didn’t end up getting married, especially when you kept fighting each other in the movie!

Deadpool: (gasps) Timmy! I’ve never known to be so rude before!

---

There’s also Channing Tatum as Remy LeBeau a.k.a. Gambit, who apparently had been attached to star as the character in an unproduced ‘Gambit’ film. Interesting titbit there. I’m surprised Taylor Kitsch who played Gambit in ‘X-Men Origins: Wolverine’ didn’t return as the character in this movie.

---

Deadpool: Wash your mouth, Tim! We want to have as few references to that atrocity as much as possible.

Wolverine: Is that why you killed yourself in your second movie in one of the post-credit scenes…?

Deadpool: Again, pee off, Logan!

---

There’s also Wunmi Mosaku as Hunter B-15 (who you might remember seeing in ‘Loki’), Aaron Stanford is back as John Allerdyce/Pyro from the second and third ‘X-Men’ films, Tyler Mane returns briefly as Victor Creed/Sabretooth from the first ‘X-Men’ film – and I say ‘briefly’ very lightly because the fight Wolverine has with Sabretooth is very short-lived.

---

Wolverine: I don’t even know who the flip that guy was when he attacked me.

Deadpool: Nevertheless, it was very disappointing.

---

There’s also Aaron W. Reed as Cain Marko/Juggernaut, who resembles what he looks like in ‘X-Men: The Last Stand’. Well, it’s not Juggernaut from ‘Deadpool 2’, but at least it’s not Vinnie Jones.

---

Timelord007: Thank God!

---

Juggernaut: I’M THE JUGGERNAUT, BITCH!!!

---

Timelord007: Not you, Vinnie! No way are you the Juggernaut!!!

---

There’s Mike Waters as Frederick Dukes as the Blob, Billy Clements as the Russian, and characters like Toad from the first ‘X-Men’ film, Lady Deathstrike from ‘X-Men 2’, Callisto from ‘X-Men: The Last Stand’, Azazel from ‘X-Men: First Class’, Bullseye from…the 2003 ‘Daredevil’ film, I believe, and there’s Psylocke from ‘X-Men: Apocalypse’. It’s amazing there are these many characters in the film.

There are also several variants of Deadpool who appear in the film, including…dog actor Peggy as Mary Puppins a.k.a. Dogpool…

---

Deadpool: Oh, I love that dog! I’m so flipping glad I got to keep that dog at the end of the film.

Wolverine: Yeah, that dog was pretty flipping awesome.

Timelord007: (groans) That mutt really gets on my nerves whenever I see it.

Deadpool: What is your problem with dogs, Simon boy?

Timelord007: Hey, hey, I’ve no problem with dogs. I love them. I own two. Their names are Cody and Roxie.

Tim: I’m still sticking with Cuddles as my little mascot. Isn’t that right, Cuddles?

Cuddles: Yes, Master. Thank you for keeping me.

Timelord007: Tim, get that mongrel out of my sight now!

Tim: No, Timelord! He’s my dog! If Deadpool wants to keep Dogpool, I can keep Cuddles as much as I want on my blog.

Wolverine: Looks like you’re outvoted, bub.

Timelord007 is annoyed whilst Deadpool strokes his Dogpool whilst Tim strokes his Cuddles.

---

Going back to the Deadpool variants, there’s also Blake Lively, Ryan Reynold’s real-like wife (who was also in ‘Green Lantern’ with Ryan Reynolds by the way) as Ladypool. I’m surprised this film didn’t have Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool falling in love with Blake Lively as Ladypool. At least it would be a romance story compared to the lack of romance between Wade and Vanessa in the third movie.

There’s also Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively’s children Inez and Olin playing Kidpool and Babypool. There’s Nathan Fillion as Headpool, Matthew McConaughey as Cowboypool, Paul Mullin as Welshpool (Oh, because Ryan Reynolds co-runs Wrexham A.F.C in Wales now, doesn’t he? Huh, that’s a nice touch) and stunt double Alex Kyshkovych as Canadapool. There are also Deadpool variants like Watari/the Fool, Deadpool 2099, Golden Age Deadpool, Zenpool, Piratepool, a Welsh Knightpool and Dancepool. Wow, that’s a lot of Pools featured in this third ‘Deadpool’ movie, isn’t it?

---

Timelord007: Just to say, I heard the film was going to feature various multiverse, I did roll my eyes at that and thought this would be another time-travel movie. But thankfully, ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ works to its strengths, especially in the cameos that feature shocks and surprises.

---

I quite like the climactic fight sequence of Deadpool and Wolverine fighting against the many Deadpool variants, which includes a nice cameo of Stan Lee on a poster on a bus. That’s quite sweet, that. And at least it’s a way more dignified cameo than the one he had in the first ‘Deadpool’ film. 😀

Eventually, the film concludes with Deadpool and Wolverine saving the day and Wade’s timeline has stopped deteriorating. Logan ends up meeting Wade’s friends and…Laura/X-13 is there too? Also, Wade gets to reconcile with Vanessa. Again, what happened to that baby ‘Cher’ they were going to have?

During the end credits, we have a dedication montage to all the 20th Century Fox Marvel superhero movies that came before. This doesn’t just include the ‘X-Men’ and ‘Deadpool’ films, but also ‘Daredevil’ and ‘Elektra’, the ‘Fantastic Four’ films and yes, that includes the 2015 film.

Well, I’ll give credit to ‘Deadpool & Wolverine‘. At least it’s celebrating the best and the worst of the Marvel superhero films by 20th Century Fox. I mean, I’m sure people cringe about films like ‘X-Men Origins: Wolverine’, ‘X-Men: Dark Phoenix’ and ‘Fant4stic’, but at least their presence is acknowledged.

---

Deadpool: So, once again, my awesomeness shines through for everyone!

Wolverine: Our awesomeness, you mean, mother-flipper.

Deadpool: Well, Tim? What do you think?

Timelord007: (curious) Yeah, Tim? What do you think of Deadpool and Wolverine’s movie?

Tim: (nervously) Well, I can’t deny it’s entertaining.

---

I mean, I’m not saying this film won me over as a multiverse film. I feel ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’ (both versions) does it better for me. And at least ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ is a step-up from ‘Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness’, though I do have a soft spot for that particular ‘MCU’ movie.

But in terms of it being a balance of ‘MCU’ and ‘Deadpool’ at the same time, it’s…a little uneven for me. This is definitely more a ‘Deadpool’ film than it is an ‘MCU’ film. Which I suppose is the point considering Ryan Reynolds pressured Disney and Marvel Studios to have it be as 15/R-rated as possible.

Do I like this film though? Yes! I can say I enjoyed it. But I wouldn’t say I’m in love with it either. The adult content still isn’t for me and having both Deadpool and Wolverine be foul-mouthed doesn’t help matters, although Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman are superb in their Marvel roles. 🙂

The attraction and appeal is there in these films and I’m very pleased I got to see a ‘Deadpool’ movie on the big screen as opposed to seeing the first two films on DVD in 2019. Will I be revisiting ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ and its predecessors in future? Absolutely! I’d welcome that opportunity. 🙂

I know my opinions on the ‘Deadpool’ movies sound often mixed at times, but I do find them fascinating to check out, especially now that the merc with the mouth is a part of the ‘MCU’ film series. Where will this go for Deadpool next time? I don’t know. There might be a ‘Deadpool 4’ soon.

He might even be in the future ‘Avengers: Secret Wars’ movies for all we know. Regardless, Deadpool is a fascinating Marvel character that I enjoy keep coming back to and it’s thanks to Ryan Reynolds playing him. And I’m pleased he got the opportunity to work with Hugh Jackson as Wolverine in this film. 🙂

---

Deadpool: Well, as someone who embraces the foul-mouthiness of life, I have to say I’m very disappointed in you, Tim. I thought you would have grown up a little more.

Wolverine: Perhaps he won’t flipping see ‘Logan’ in future if he keeps on being like that.

Tim: Trust me, Logan, I will get around to seeing ‘Logan’ at some point. It’s definitely for the ‘Deadpool Film Review Season’ I have in mind.

Wolverine: Why don’t you just flipping call it ‘the flipping ‘Deadpool’ and flipping ‘Wolverine’ Film Review Season’ for your flipping blog, bub? It’s not all about flipping him, you know.

Deadpool: Except when it clearly flipping is, mother-flipping claw boy!

Timelord007: (interjects) If I could just add a few more thoughts. Overall, I feel ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ ticks the right boxes and shows if you shy away from woke elements and deliver a movie that fans want, you achieve box office gold. This movie features great action, fight sequences and great comedy in a fun-filled action-packed hilarious extravaganza. Ryan Reynolds continues to shine as the merc with the mouth named Deadpool, and the transition from Fox to Disney is seamless. The movie features a ton of R-rated carnage and inappropriate humour, which I love.

Tim: Thanks for sharing your thoughts, Timelord. And thank you three for joining me in my review on ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’.

Timelord007: No problem, Tim.

Deadpool: We had to make sure you’re doing right by how you reviewed our movie, and we have to say…

Wolverine: It was pretty flipping bull-poo.

Tim: Thanks for your kind words. Now if you’ll excuse me…

Tim stands up, takes off his mask and reveals himself as Spider-Man

Spider-Man: It’s time for me to check out my movies at the cinema from August to September. See you around, chumps!

With that, Spider-Man jumps up, fires a web and swings off, away into the sky. Timelord007, Deadpool and Wolverine watch as Spider-Man goes.

Timelord007: (realises) Oh yeah, he turned out to be Spider-Man at the end of his review for ‘Deadpool 2’.

Deadpool: So, he did, yeah. How come we were so flipping stupid to forget that?

Wolverine: Did that guy just flipping rip off his flipping face? Was he ever flipping human?
