Critics Consensus

Once Upon a Deadpool retains enough of the franchise's anarchic spirit to entertain, but doesn't add enough to Deadpool 2 to justify its own existence.

I get people's desire for the real thing but the whole thing is harmless and does not make you question if you are a good parent for letting your kid watch. Remember this was a gimmick to see if a PG13 Deadpool could work and I didn't feel like it lost that much and I didn't have to subject my kid to unreasonable content to introduce him to dead pool

The Perfect Blend of Comedy and Chaos It's like a rollercoaster ride of hilarity, action, and pure unadulterated awesomeness. First of all, Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool is an absolute gem. I don't think there's anyone else in Hollywood who could pull off the witty, sarcastic, and slightly insane character quite like him. He brings so much energy and charm to the role that it's impossible not to fall in love with Deadpool all over again. And let's not forget about his impeccable comedic timing, which had me laughing so hard I nearly fell out of my seat. But it's not just Reynolds who shines in this movie. The entire cast is on fire. Josh Brolin as Cable is the perfect foil to Deadpool's antics, with his gruff demeanor and no-nonsense attitude. And of course, we can't forget about the lovable X-Force team, who had me in stitches with their hilarious and, let's just say, unexpected demise. The writing in Deadpool 2 is top-notch. The jokes are fast and furious, with references to pop culture, superheroes, and even the actors themselves. It's like the writers took a giant blender, threw in all the best one-liners and puns they could find, and hit the "blend" button on high. The result is a script that is equal parts clever, irreverent, and downright hilarious. But it's not just all laughs and giggles. Deadpool 2 also has a surprising amount of heart. The movie delves into some deeper themes, like family, sacrifice, and redemption, all while maintaining its signature irreverent tone. It's a delicate balance that the filmmakers manage to pull off flawlessly, and it adds a layer of depth to the movie that I wasn't expecting. And let's not forget about the action sequences. They are absolutely mind-blowing. From the opening scene to the epic final battle, the movie is packed with jaw-dropping stunts, explosive set pieces, and some seriously kick-ass fight choreography. It's like a symphony of destruction, and I couldn't tear my eyes away from the screen. Overall, Deadpool 2 is a wild, hilarious, and action-packed ride that had me laughing, cheering, and even shedding a tear or two. It's a rare gem in the superhero genre that manages to be both a hilarious comedy and a heartfelt story. So, if you're looking for a movie that will leave you with a smile on your face and a stitch in your side from laughing so hard, then Deadpool 2 is the movie for you. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.

The sequel zips along as the motormouth assassin tries to clean up his act (sort of).

It's a sick, dumb joke that you can't help but laugh at. And as soon as you do, you feel bad about falling for the gag.

Once Upon a Deadpool is not a wholly satisfying experience, but it adds a little more heart to a film that already had more than you'd expect.
