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.

This is a fun, hyper-violent, gleefully perverse frolic into the super-powered absurd. Go to Full Review

Miller’s movie doesn’t need to be a bonafide masterpiece to be a perfect movie in its own regard, and Deadpool certainly is that. Maximum effort! Go to Full Review

2.5/5
“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

Nikos 06/16/2023 Great as can be and funny as well. See more Peter 11/19/2021 Freaking epic movie, you gotta see it for yourselves 😂 See more Carter H. @quality_finds 10h 2016’s Diamond First of all Ryan Reynolds is the perfect Deadpool, personality, acting, and style wise Deadpool (2016) is a comic book translated through a movie, this movie has set a new standard for Marvel Not to mention this movie is so high quality it is what I think of when I imagine high quality movies Not only is the character Deadpool a brilliant character in the comics, but the Merc with a Mouth is costumed perfectly, the actor is perfect, and consistently sticks to the exact comic book character The scene where Deadpool developed his mutation is one of the best movie scenes I have ever seen Deadpool isn’t a billionare riding around in a custom weapon machine Deadpool is a taxi riding, hilarious, ADHD freak, but most of all; Deadpool is a mutated cancer patient, who can heal from severe wounds in a matter of seconds The part where it is shown that he gets a bullet wound through his arm, then put his finger throughout before it healed was perfect 5/5 Stars Premium! See more PUR3 G @Pur3g4l4xy 3d I've never been more In love with a man in red spandex spiderman second best but deadpool is the goat See more Charles T. @CharlesGaming1000 3d This shit was HILARIOUS See more Donald K @Awesomestar 6d Slow start and barely skimmed itsself a 4 and a half instead of 4 stars because of great action sequences and a funny plotline. Very good movie See more Read all reviews
