Cringe worthy humour.


How do people find this funny? The amount of sex, fart and dick jokes make it the perfect movie for 15 year olds. How the *beep* does this have an 8.4? It's rated higher than cinema masterpieces like Pan's Labyrinth and A Fistful of Dollars.

There should be a minimum voting age on this site.

The OP is clearly offended by sex scenes and thinks themselves better than others by finding dick and fart jokes not funny. If you didn't find this film enjoyable than holy christ get off the internet, you're too good for it.
"Oh but I found Pan's Labyrinth a masterpiece" Yeah don't go to far there champ, we all enjoyed it. Stop being a pretentious douche mate; don't rate how important and smart and mature you are based on the films you like. Hint: It's makes you a tool and no one cares.

It's not being a holier than thou attitude. Some people are just offended by green jokes because sex to them is a personal thing. I bet you would be offended too if someone tells green jokes to your gf or wife or your sister. It can even put you in trouble because you can be sued for sexual harassment if you do green jokes to your hot female colleague in th e office.

What the hell is a green joke?

I agree it is juvenile......

Do you even know what cringe is? The humor in this movie isn't close to being cringy.

Pan's Labyrinth is far from a masterpiece its more like collage of garbage that could have been great. Dead pool was rated highly because it was an amazingly good film that wasnt targeted towards kids and had alot of entertainment and action. It wasnt boring like Pans maze of horrid awfulness. There should be a minimum IQ level for this site.. age dont mean *beep* Your on here.. Takes a real true sense of humor to enjoy deadpool and it takes an actual brain to comprehend the story its not just a boring avengers movie with cheesy fights where the good guy always wins and cant kill the enemy.. thankfully people like you dont matter and a deadpool 2 sequel is coming out for the fans of the comics and the film. Who actually enjoy a film made for people with mature minds instead of the family friendly marvel films we usually get... with hardly any dark sub plots or even gore. Pans biggest flaw was it tried too hard and it failed to be scary or entertaining it was like an endless torture cycle watching it. Please go watch some films worthy of being called masterpieces... like Frankenstein 1931... or THing even Ben hur... tombstone.. alien 3:10 to yuma, scream, Legend, those are considered masterpieces... by many... Pans is so overrated .... if you really want true genius go watch a stanley Kubrick film better yet go watch A clockwork Orange... go learn something.. like realism in movies is what really makes for good entertainment.. if everything is so far fetched and perfect its unbelievable. Pans tried soo hard to be fantasy and dark and horror it failed on all fronts... its dull... just like your brain... go watch some classics then come back and comment..

maybe if you're a 50 year old grumpy ass man you wouldn't find it funny

humour is witty clever and smart, but it has a wide range of variety including fart jokes and "15 year old teenage jokes" which is funny because he jokes about emo teenagers

there are jokes that only old people will get, certainly i didnt get a few
jokes that only few others will get here and there

and that was the beauty of the film in terms of a comedy
btw comedy is only one aspect of the film

there are also serious moments that are not funny
and that is what you fail to see

I thought it was hilarious, and believe me I'm WAY older than 15.

Its hard to argue its better then Pans or Fistful dollars, still do take into account that rating at release is not the same as rating 10-48years later.
You think this movie will have a rating off 8.4 10+ years from now?

Actually think this movie is unusually intelectual for a hollywood movie, sure it has lot and lots of crude humor jokes but sprinkled into that are few more sarcastic critics of the current society.
Exactly what that says about the average hollywood movie is kinda depressing
