Keen to see it later this month. I'm down for some silly fun.

This is one of the few superhero movies I actually thought about going to see. The only ones I've caught in theaters were the original XMen and the Days of the Future Past one with Vasbinder as Magneto. I hated the first XMen because they made Rogue so damn lame.

As for the 90's, I donno, Swing Revival with those flaming bowling shirts... Sugar Ray. I think I'll pass man. Lol

Yeah, Rogue and Cyclops were two characters they could never seem to get quite right in the movies.

And there was definitely a lot about the 90's (especially the latter half) that was cheesy and lame, no doubt.

Great non spoiler review!

(figured I could comment this before it's inevitably spoiled in the comments.)

Thanks for the vote of confidence. I actually think it's one of the worst things I've ever written, though 🙃

I liked it. I wouldn’t say it was bad by any means.

I saw the movie last weekend in the cinema. While I never was a fan of comics, I have seen quite a few super hero movies in the past. I enjoyed both Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman in past iterations of their corresponding super heroes, but this movie sucked from beginning to the end. The plot is embarrassing, the jokes are for immature boys, the fights are without any stakes as both heroes are basically immortal (you could argue that all fights in super hero movies are without stakes as you can just raise the dead either via time travel or this multiverse bs), the fights are very repetitive (how many fights between Deadpool and Wolverine are necessary), the villain has no credible motivation at all (Wolverine too) and the film is full of easter eggs who only super Marvel nerds understand. If you are a Marvel super fan, you may enjoy the non-stop fan service. If you want to see a good movie, look somewhere else. This may sound harsh but I had a constant feeling that it would be better to just leave the cinema. Unfortunately, I did not do it.

Have...have you never seen a Deadpool (or MCU) movie before?

As I have written, I have seen a lot of super hero movies in the last 25 years, maybe too many. I have seen around 50% of the MCU movies, at least the first Deadpool movie and nearly all X-Men Movies. I don´t remember any of them that sucked as much as Deadpool & Wolverine. This one is just nostalgic fan bait for Marvel super fans.

Garbage. A movie with a weak storyline that is just an excuse for two actors to throw jokes at each other.

Yes, that's literally the point, and there's nothing wrong with that.

Well, I can't disagree with you on the cultural aspect. It really was when things began to fall apart at the seams.
