So, that happened. Not as horrible as I expected but still not very good. Everyone plays to type. You have to suspend your belief a lot. You have to stop asking questions about how that even works.
The relationship between the Rock and Deadpool is as contentious as you would expect because one is a crook and the other is a cop but they have to find a way to work together. And because of the success of Deadpool, every character that Reynolds plays comes off as a quipster because that is what works for him. I hear he also writes a lot of his own dialogue.
It's also set piece centric. All the quiet scenes in between the big action sequences just feel like filler until you get to another big action sequence. The action sequences are good but feel like stand alone pieces.
And I'm beginning to think Gal Gadot needs to go off and do some non-action movies to see if she can be an actor.
I did really enjoy three pieces towards the end, all done by Reynolds. Very fourth wall breaking and poking fun at action movies.

As a matter of fact, my anger does keep me warm
