Review of Deadpool 2 (2018) by Lesley C — 01 Jun 2018
I really liked the original Deadpool with it's breaking the 4th wall, referential wise cracks and Sam Raimi style over the top violence. This one is pretty much the same but that's the problem here.
Deadpool 2 just isn't funny anymore - well almost anyway. The jokes have been done, the surprise is gone much like most comedy sequels in general. Deadpool as a character is now as annoying as Jim Carrey's MASK got after repeated viewing.
As for Josh Brolin's Cable well there is very little character development here and he's really nothing like the comic book version at all which has a great back story which could link in with the other X films.
That aside it's entertaining enough and the post credit scenes are quite fun.
