About

You’ll likely enjoy Deadpool if you want an irreverent, R-rated anti-hero origin with nonstop jokes and brutal action, and if you don’t mind fourth-wall breaking; Not for you if profanity-heavy humor and gory violence aren’t your thing, or if you prefer cleaner superhero takes like Kingsman: The Secret Service or Kick-Ass 2.

Pros: Dark, nonstop comedy; R-rated action energy; Memorable character voice | Cons: Very profane; Some jokes miss; Unlikable characters
