Surprised you went to this one

I actually liked the first one and even the second one a bit. They took the piss out of the whole thing which was fun. This one loses all its bite or maybe I am just more exhausted by the endless tsunami of superhero IP so donāt even find the satire interesting.

Iād say itās the most American R rating. Lots of swearing and gratuitous violence but no nudity or anything approaching an adult situation.

Lol I told you not to go! I didnāt think youād like it.
Did you at least enjoy them dishonoring Logan in the opening?

I donāt think so. If heās already disfigured, then we donāt need to worry about any resemblance. I also think theyāll modify his voice whenever heās wearing the mask.
I guess itās fine if they do go the evil variant route, but boy would that annoy the heck out of me. I donāt want a character from a different universe. I want a guy who has recently gone mad from the trauma.
Ya and the Canadian call out was amusing.

Can you believe The Matrix is 25 years old? I was watching it with my family last night, and itās still an absolute banger. My son fell asleep during the kung fu training scene (not because he was bored, though), so we get to finish it today.

Caught a rerelease in Dolby earlier this year and it still holds up wonderfully. I only give five stars to about 50 movies ever, and I donāt hesitate with that one.

Itās so good!! Maybe Iām alone but I also loved Resurrections and have watched it multiple times. I also liked a lot of Reloaded but hated Revolutions. I still think it was dumb to give Neo powers in the real world instead of revealing that the real world was just another simulation.

Even not having watched Deadpool and Wolverine at that point this:
is a perfect review. If you liked the first two, this movie is for you. If you feel like walking out during the opening credits, do so.
If I want to be critical, one, I think #3 felt too compelled to be even more over the top with both gore and innuendo than its predecessors, and it did so it a way that was more of a distraction from than addition to the humor too often. Two, the ultimate conflict resolution didnāt make a lick of sense and felt just sorta slapped on there so that there would be a resolution to the conflict, but really, thatās not why weāre watching this movie. And three, this movie seemed to violate its own canon w.r.t. how fast itād take Deadpool to heal, but it sorta had to in order to make a few things work. It might also have been a little too dependent on having seen at least one season of Loki to fully make sense, but thatās less major.
But still, if you think this movie is for you, go see it, and quickly, and do whatever it takes to avoid any spoilers.

Highest R-Rated Opening of All-Time Both Worldwide and Domestic: At $438.3M worldwide and $205M domestic. Deadpool & Wolverine beats previous record-holder Deadpool from 2016 ($264M WW in like for like markets excluding China, $132.4M domestic).
Ridiculous money 
Close to half a billion in just the first weekend.
We got our ābigā tube TV and a surround system when we moved to MN in 2000. First DVD in was The Matrix. What an experience. We watched it so many times. The older boys were teens.

Iām not sure about that. Thereās a fun bit in the trailer that asks them to choose a door based on their faith. I think heāll be revealed to have his own quirky religion. The movie seems too smart to take such a simplistic atheists bad approach. He seems to want to observe them making difficult decisions to test their faith, not to disprove it.
