Hated Reynolds and Deadpool, until I saw this...

And it freaking ROCKS!!!!!

I don't get it:
1.- Ryan Reynolds: he's a total tool in non comedy movies, but he's like 1000% gold here. Can't imagine this working with anyone else.
2.- Deadpool character in the comics: have read a few (Deadpool kills the entire Marvel Universe) and he seems to me totally generic garbage. But here he's totally fantastic.

Maybe this is actually better than the actual comic? Because I don't like the comic but completely loved this.

LOVED IT!!!!!!

You might want to check out the "Deadpool classic" and "Cable and Deadpool" titles they are more the deadpool shown in the movie.

I've gotta agree... Ryan Reynolds is perfect for the role of Deadpool.

But ONLY if the character is written this way, and Reynolds is given latitude in his characterisation.

Otherwise you end up with X-Men Origins.

So for the sequels they better keep the same writing crew and creative direction if they want to keep the party going...

Yeah... I can definitely agree with that
