Deadpool

Rating: 81/100

In all honesty, this film has to overcome the character of Deadpool, one that I've slowly become less and less enamored with over the years. As a comic fan, Deadpool has been so overused and every possible ounce of humor has been rung out of him like a dingy dish rag. However, this movie had the opportunity to present the character in live-action for the first time (yes, the first time), and it's successful because it doesn't rely on cameo gags to get Deadpool over with the audience. In fact, the lack of major Marvel stars is what works well here, because this is Deadpool's movie, with a focus on the tragic aspects of the character, underlining that he laughs through his pain.
