Deadpool (2016) - What's So Fun?

★☆☆☆☆

‘Deadpool’ is basically a lousy comedy under the skin of a bloody violent pseudo-superhero film. It’s lousy because it tries so hard to be fun, but the harder it tries, the less fun it seems. Plus, the guy seems superficially optimistic to wanna make a joke out of everything in any situation even though there’s indeed supposed to be some pain and struggle. And you know what, this is NOT a superhero but superbitchy film, like the language they speak, and the way the guy acts is super brutal and selfish. He simply wants a tooth for a tooth. It’s nothing about justice or morality or anything. If you’re so fond of superhero films, don’t let ‘Deadpool’ spoil you. Can’t disagree that the action has got some style, but so what? Haven’t you seen enough yet?

I feel like superhero films have been going downhill ever since Christopher Nolan’s ‘Batman Trilogy’. They’re all kinda messed up delivering only thrills but no thoughts. Maybe that’s what most people want nowadays: make me high. Do not make me cry. I know, commercial films like that are merely entertainment. We’re all too tired and scared to get serious about life now. We’d rather be a walking dead than be called an indie hypocrite!
