What to Know

Critics Consensus

Fast, funny, and gleefully profane, the fourth-wall-busting Deadpool subverts superhero film formula with wildly entertaining -- and decidedly non-family-friendly -- results.

“Deadpool” is essentially an origin story and not a particularly original one. But its hope is that you’ll be so involved in the comic mayhem that you won’t care. Go to Full Review Rachel Wagner rachelsreviews.net 07/23/2024
Deadpool mostly works at what it is trying to do- be a sarcastic and violent parody of superhero movies up until that point. Go to Full Review Don Shanahan Every Movie Has a Lesson 04/07/2024
5/5
"Deadpool" is the most red-faced and side-splitting movie of the comic genre to date. It makes "Guardians of the Galaxy" look like C-SPAN when it comes to non-stop action and humor. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
