Solidly mid. There's a bunch of films that do it better. Just go watch those.
It feels a bit.. hollow. Clipped together from pieces of other films. Almost like a charicature of itself but not even anything quite that intense.
Ultimately, I had a good time, but it really wasn't a great movie, and I don't think I'd watch it again.
Genuinely this film is such a delight to watch. I watched it with my boyfriend and we spent the rest of the night just talking about it- there's so much to praise and so much to analyze.
Ralph Fiennes gives an absolute powerhouse performance that really pulls the film together into all it can be. (Anya Taylor-Joy does an alright job, though I wonder if there weren't any number of actresses who may have done better).
This movie is textbook…
This remains to be the only movie I have ever walked out on, and may very well end up being the only one I ever DO walk out on. Nothing could make me try and finish this movie. Nothing could make me walk into a room where it's playing and sit down. A bad time from start to finish.
Fun movie! Felt more like an MCU movie than a Deadpool movie, in all honesty, but a tolerable one. A lot less of Deadpool wing, nudging the camera and a lot more of "look at this cameo or allusion to a character from something else!" Missing a lot of homoeroticism. There really should have been more.
It was much more of a Snickering movie than a Laugh Out Loud one, which is another part of what makes it feel more…
