Year: 2016
Director: Tim Miller
I really liked this movie. Everything a great Friday night’s entertainment should be. Thrilling, witty, original, sexy, camp and smart. All post-modern and meta and stuff. With loads of groovy references (Sinead, Wham, David Beckham, Basil Fawlty, Limp Bizkit and even, post credits, Ferris Bueller).
The story is very standard kill-the-baddie-and-win-back-the-girl, but the dialogue is ultra-snappy. So much so that I’m already looking forward to seeing it again and finding bits I missed.
Might appeal to people who enjoyed:
Kickass, Scott Pilgrim vs The World, Ted.
I give it four stars.

A line in this triffik movie made me think of you @bingolittle:
“I’m gonna do to your face what Limp Bizkit did to music in the late 90s!”
I have no idea what it means.
I wasn’t expecting great things of Deadpool. I thought it would be a bit of a puerile excuse to have people swear in a superhero film – and it was. But fortunately it also had a genuinely funny script, great action scenes and Reynolds was really likeable in the part. I was really pleasantly surprised by it.
Same here. I don’t usually like anything comic-book related (although I did like Kick Ass), but I agree with you – great dialogue, likeable hero.
