best of the year


100% deserves award recognition. This is the most original superhero movie of all time and will be regarded as a classic years from now. Sits beside Batman Begins, The Dark Knight, Iron Man, and Avengers as one of the best comic book movies. This one nails what comics are all about. I hope the next one doesn't get all Iron Man 2/Avengers 2. Don't ruin a good thing please!

Best of 2016: Deadpool

Honestly, i enjoyed the film and it definitely surprised me because from the way people were talking and the publicity for it, i was fearing another Green Lantern, honestly, i thought it would be awful

But to my surprise it was actually pretty good, it had decent action, decent humour and the characters were mostly interesting

But, that's it for me personally, it was good and enjoyable, but it wasn't award winning material, the actual plot is quite basic and at times paper thin, the humour while hitting the mark quite often, falls flat on many occasions and even some of the action scenes are a little predictable in places

So yeah, good and definitely a nice surprise in terms of quality, but apart from showing that a R rated movie based on a comic can work, it wasn't really a game changer and wasn't really that original, just well made and executed

For me and again, just my opinion, it doesn't really come close to being in the same place as Bat begins and the dark night or IM or the Avengers, i think they're all superior to DeadPool, which isn't to say it's not a good film, because it is, it's just not great

As for the sequel, i fear they will try to go bigger and louder and in the process give us what a lot of people feared the first film would be like
