    Deadpool & Wolverine

    ★★★½

    Funny as Deadpool always is, but it was lacking in the broader story. The manufactured emotional beats didn’t hit, but the jokes made up for most of it. I had a great time! This movie could haven been GREAT, but it was still good.

    I love this movie because it can be interpreted in so many ways. Is it about greatness and its cost? Is it about mental health and the stress of performance? Is it about good vs. evil and how one becomes the “black swan”? Is it about freedom from control and suffocating perfectionism? This movie has something for everyone. It is literal and metaphorical, whichever you prefer. I tend to dislike movies that are too abstract but this movie has so…

    ★★★½

    I was confused by this movie... both characters bothered me and I wanted Alma to leave Woodcock so badly. He was such an ass. I understand the relationship is supposed to be the way two toxic people cope, but I couldn’t find myself to care about either of them at the end of the movie. The cinematography, music, and dresses were beautiful and I did laugh during some memorable scenes. But ultimately I don’t know what this movie was saying. It felt like a stretch to me
