Ryan Reynolds finally rehabilitated himself in X-Men: Origins Wolverine. It took eleven years for FOX to give the movie the green light — of course, not just his credit — the then FOX executive Drew Crevello (who also contributed to the restart of X-Men) gave RR and the two Screenwriter: Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick (Zombieland) finalized the opportunity for the prototype of the film, and in 2011 introduced Tim Miller, an animator he admired, for RR.
Before this film, Tim Miller's resume as a director was still blank. But he has been an important figure in the animation/special effects circle since the 1990s and the co-owner of the famous special effects studio Blur. He is personally responsible for the awesome film title of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. So David Fincher and James Cameron, who got acquainted with Miller because of Avatar, both read Deadpool's script and spoke a few words in the ears of FOX executives.
It may be because I feel that adult superhero movies are not selling well, and the restrained FOX is still not released. Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick had tossed several times during the six or seven years when they started the script in 2009, modifying the action scenes and creating different versions for the budget (it is said to be only 50 million US dollars, not even half of Ant-Man). (Jokes and violent scenes have to be adjusted). Then in the summer of 2014, the CG movie test segment was streamed online; then FOX realized that Deadpool’s fan base was so huge; and then there was this movie that was not compromised for classification-but it was still because of the money. The relationship has compromised a lot.

Of course there are spoilers below~
(´ ▽ `)ノMy favorite place:
-R grade!
Although it is not the first time that a superhero movie has been rated as hard R. But it's cool to see an action movie made entirely for adults. There is no such thing as passionate drama and action drama (the first superhero to be pegging in the history of the screen?!); F word has said it 84 times , and there are so many stories related to religion, drugs, pornography, and even offensive people. . It's so beautiful.
- The title is
the same as Guardians of the Galaxy, and the humorous temperament appears from the very beginning of the movie. This slow motion scene is an enhanced version of the one that was released two years ago, and it is quite original. In addition to the self-deprecating and arrogant opening titles-"An Entirely CGI Character", "A Gratuitous Cameo", and "Written By The Real Heroes", there are also Hello Kitty's lipstick, Green Lantern's card, and Ryan Reynolds as the "most The magazine on the cover of Sexy Men, Rob L’s coffee cup (Rob Liefeld, one of the authors of Deadpool)...and Adventure Time’s watch and Walkman with Wade tape. If you watch a movie and talk about a relationship, then the first impression of this movie is really exciting.
The names of important people in the film team also appeared on street signs, as well as "Parker Boulevard", "bit by a radioactive shar-pei", and "Go get'em tiger." to pay tribute to Spider-Man . Whatculture summarizes 100 eggs and allusions , which is very informative.
- It's really the
pre- romantic movie marketing team that produced multiple versions of postersAt the time, the Valentine's Day version made me think it was just one of the ideas. Unexpectedly, the movie really focused on love, and even spent a lot of space to get the audience to devote themselves to the relationship between Wilson and Vanessa. In the era when high-quality rom-com is becoming more and more rare, the strange role of Deadpool appeared in the Valentine's Day file.
The 39-year-old RR is still very comfortable in his old career-chest muscles, abdominal muscles, butt can be exposed, but also show so generously. There is such a paragraph in IMDB trivia "The Deadpool costume had a muscle layer underneath, that had to be removed because Ryan Reynolds was so muscular the costume was not only too tight for him but it made him look overlarge." Tsk.
By the way, the pecking section of the pizza boy's face is so natural, does it a bit suggest his omnisexual orientation? -Structure Deadpool The
structure of
this film is a bit special. At least in the superhero movies of recent years, the narrative approach is quite different (I think X-Men: Days of Future Past Rogue Cut is better in this regard). The first appearance is a small climax in the action scene, so many flashbacks are not unpleasant and powerful.
-I really didn’t intend to save the world.
As an anti-hero with a lot of problems, this superhero origin happened in a small and inadequate pattern. It was purely talking-a profit-seeking veteran mercenary who wanted to reunite with his girlfriend The revenge story of a big killing. Not only is there no "saving the world, it’s up to me" posture, a fight also left the equipment in the taxi (the poor Indian brother is unlucky), letting his companions squeeze himself in the back first, and make it out of the crotch. Pulling out the white flag (white underwear?) surrendered.
Interruption: The reason Deadpool forgets all the guns in the taxi is because FOX has just reduced the budget of more than seven million US dollars for the creative team , and there is no money to make a grand action scene.
-The
X-Men (especially Wolverine) who broke the 16th wall Deadpool several times contributed some of the best stories in the film. There is also a mockery of Marvel (superhero-themed movie), RR, The Taken and so on. His good friend Weasel also said something like "may be good for the sequel." No way, self-deprecating movies are my weakness, which can make me ignore many flaws.
-The interactive
film with X-Men laid the foundation for the later appearance of Deadpool in X-Men movies. Mutant schools like Professor X and X-Jet have also appeared. It's not like Marvel's several films that bluntly connect superheroes together. By the way, many people on the Internet think that the last ship in the final battle was S.H.I.E.L.D.E.L.D., but it does not seem to be. -Qualified
fan movie
If you like Deadpool, you will like this movie almost 100%. If you don’t know Deadpool, but you love watching funny movies and have a childlike heart, 80% of you might like this movie. If you think any film must have "depth", and commercial films are inferior, the chance of liking this film is zero.
The movie seems to be able to maintain 80%/90%+ on Rotten Tomatoes. Regarding the position of Deadpool in similar movies, Vox released a very good film review "Deadpool review: Deadpool isn't reinventing the superhero genre. It's making it better" .
-The ending credits are
probably due to low budgets. Deadpool's ending Easter eggs are also very simple (the Easter eggs mocking Disney Marvel are quite out of the ordinary), directly imitating the ending of the movie Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Coincidentally, this stalk was predicted by Reddit netizens before. As another well-known character who broke the Fourth Wall, I regret that I have never heard of or watched this film. :(
But my heart beat faster when I heard the name of Cable appeared. I hope FOX can invite a non-A-Lister/MMA star to play this sturdy uncle (Eric Dane?). After all, there are not many middle-aged muscular men who can play in Hollywood. New Mutants is also under planning, and I hope to see the heavyweight Cable debut on the big screen soon.
The better ones are Deadpool’s beloved unicorn, “A Special Thanks (With Tongue)”, “This film created 13,000 jobs.” in the middle of the two clips, and “Please take the garbage away” at the end. (But the two boys next to me still didn't take the garbage away...)
-After the soundtrack was
in Mad Max: Fury Road, Junkie XL (Tom Holkenborg) contributed another excellent soundtrack. The tracks in it like "Liam Neeson Nightmare" and "A Face I Would Sit On" although they have funny names, but the seriousness is really in any Nolan film, there will be no sense of contradiction.
"Man in a Red Suit" and "Maxium Effort" are his signature majestic vigor, using electronic synthesizers, percussion and bass to the utmost. Holkenborg and Hans Zimmer are responsible for the original soundtrack of Batman vs Superman this year. They intend to make movie fans climax to death.
In addition to this, Juice Newton's song set the tone of 80s and 90s pop music for the movie from the beginning. Although I’m not someone who grew up listening to pop songs in those days, I heard "X Gon Give It to Ya" (which happened to be when Deadpool and two X-Men appeared), "Shoop", "Careless Whisper" These songs still have feelings physically, right.
(・Д・)ノWhat I don’t like:
- Script
I think it is the reason why many people who don't have a Deadpool plot give this movie four stars instead of five stars. Of course, such a plot is also limited by the hero itself, as the first franchise is Okay. There are many bugs in the story. For example, how can Wade use his fingers to light a match in his mouth; how can he think that Ajax is willing to cure him; why not find Francis with his business card at the beginning; why is Ajax so obvious? Grabbing the photo, let the news of the kidnapping of Vanessa leak out...-The
villain
, the "Recruiter", who Wilson called Agent Smith, is too weak, and the actor himself can handle even more sophisticated and insidious characters. Ajax can also be a little worse. It's not like a doctor's style of hand-to-hand combat. I think they could have introduced Doctor Killebrew and Ajax instead of Ajax and Angel Dust, two very capable but not very clever characters (especially Angel Dust, a typical Hollywood executioner with little dialogue). In addition, I very much hope that the FOX villains will stop using metal bars to kill heroes. Magneto's killing of Wolverine can pull his bones out like in the comics. When Ajax killed Wilson for the first time, he should also be dismissed a lot, so that the audience can understand how strong his self-healing ability is.
-There are really too
few mutants, too few, too few, and I don't know why I abandon the identity of Vanessa mutants. And Negasonic Teenage Warhead's ability in comics is not this. Now that they have Colossus, they can also use Sunspot that has appeared in previous movies to set fire. Maybe I just want to find a loli to increase the variety of roles. In short, none of the Deadpool sidekicks in the movie can grab the show. It's not like Quciksilver in X-Men, or Groot + Rocket beside Star Lord.
-Blind Al is
not to say that I don't like her, and she is already very badass in the film. I just think that her relationship with Deadpool can be more complicated, closer to the character "imprisoned" bullied by Deadpool in the comics, and at the same time similar to his mother.
-In Deadpool's split personality
comics, Wilson also had a big mental problem after the transformation. But this point is still not highlighted in the movie, only a few occasional lines make people think of the inner dialogue between the circle and the square in the comics.
-Not abnormal enough The Deadpool self-breaking arm (and baby-like "little hand") is closer to the level of abnormality I expected. But I still hope that this film can be more abnormal/shocked, such as the classic section below that makes people feel a little painful (I don’t know why it’s not very painful to see the bullet in the middle of the chrysanthemum).
(Archangel was slowly starved to death after being attacked by Famine, Deadpool tried to save him. I hope I can see it in the X-Force movie?)
Finally, I want to sigh. Fortunately, this film did not suffer from the bad hands of the Broadcasting and Television and Jia Xiuyan, otherwise it would have been as unhappy as Kingsman, or there would be many people who complained that the film was not interesting because they laughed. The box office situation is also very optimistic, looking forward to Deadpool 2 with a higher budget.
