Dead Pool

Post by Larry3215 » Thu Feb 18, 2016 12:07 am

Anyone else seen it yet?

I went yesterday and I highly recommend it - IF - you are ok with raunchy, R rated humor and action. Normally, thats not my thing. I have nothing against R rated movies or raunchy humor in principal, but its not my thing most of the time and its not why I go to movies. On top of that, Ive never been impressed with Ryan Reynolds and the trailers I saw didnt really get me excited. I went because my brothers wanted to go and they dragged me along.

That said, they did an outstanding job with this movie. I havent had this much fun at a movie in a long long time. The crowd was cheering, laughing out loud and clapping all through the movie. There were also quite a few shocked gasps and groans and guilty giggles.

I have a hard time not nitpicking at movie story lines and stupid things they do, but in this case I was laughing too much to care. It was a lot of fun.

I have to say, the best super hero ish move I've seen in quite a while. The opening credits had me rolling on the floor. This was like Antman on steroids. I'm pretty sure it will be on the big screen for quite some time.

[thumbsup] If I had a nickle for everytime I...

The vast majority of the movie isn't "clean" enough to use in a trailer. So if you are on the fence about going because the trailers were weak, trust me, just go, you'll love it.

Warning, this is not a movie for the kids. I wouldn't be surprised if they had to rework some of the scenes to keep it from garning a NC17 rating.

Well, it is far from PG movie. Im guessing its why its rated "R".
