Quick Review: Deadpool 2

​Deadpool 2 is a gleefully profane sequel, full of action and raunchy pizzazz. Ryan Reynolds was born to play this role. 


​The merc with the mouth returns with more offensive jokes, more violent set pieces and a Josh Brolin cyborg. Deadpool 2 is a blast from the first frame until the last frame. The first Deadpool (2016) became a worldwide sensation, bringing in $783 million on a low $58 million budget. Making it the highest-grossing R-rated movie in box office history and the highest-grossing X-Men film. While the second feature didn’t top its predecessor’s box office gross, nevertheless; this anti-superhero proved not to be a fluke. Currently, the second go-around is sitting at $734 million worldwide. Director David Leitch (Atomic Blonde) swings this sequel back to action, with a touch of sass.

​We return with the foul-mouthed mutant mercenary Wade Wilson (AKA Deadpool, AKA a never better Reynolds), who brings together a team of fellow mutant mongrels (X-Force) to protect a young boy (a fantastic Julian Dennison) with supernatural abilities. My favorite new mercenary being Domino (played by a fierce Zazie Beetz). Their mission is to keep the boy safe from the brutal, time-traveling cyborg named Cable (a grumpy Brolin). And that’s all of the plot I am willing to give away. Overall, this is another slick adventure with our dirty little friend. You'll laugh until your sides hurt, especially during the mid-credits scene. Deadpool 2 amps up the action, jokes and chimichangas all into one nicely packaged movie extravaganza. 

Deadpool 2 is rated R (Restricted). For strong violence and language throughout, sexual references and brief drug material.
