Era Uma Vez um Deadpool

The whole idea was to re-edit the second Deadpool film in order to make it more family friendly and allow more people to see the film in theaters, so instead of simply just editing out profanities and major drug use, they added kidnapping. Fred Savage's kidnapping! And apparently Brad Pitt was also kidnapped too, but that can't be confirmed. The premise of Deadpool telling his story to Savage in the bedroom set of Princess Bride is very comical, especially when Deadpool breaks the fourth wall.

At one time, IMDb didn't consider this title as it's own standalone film and only an alternative to Deadpool 2. I'm glad to see they finally added the film as it's own entity, because it is, even Rotten Tomatoes recognized it. It's not just a directors cut or an extended version of the film after all, it's akin to Superman II: The Richard Donner Cut.

I thought that I had missed a movie somewhere, but this is Deadpool 2 LITE! A version of the film with less swearing so that it could be watched by a less mature audience, and that is fine, I can understand how that would be a want. It was enough of everything that makes Deadpool movies nuts, just with a little less peppery vocab, and there is still enough language and banter to still keep you amused enough to feel like you are not missing out on too much.

The Fred Savage addition was funny, I am wondering if you have to be the right age to really understand why though, his pure soul and all that.

This film is a PG-13 cut of Deadpool 2, created to demonstrate that the character could fit within the MCU. While hindsight shows this was unnecessary-given that Deadpool and Wolverine remained R-rated-it still offers an enjoyable glimpse into an alternate universe where Disney didn't grant Ryan Reynolds these liberties. The story follows Deadpool, who kidnaps and ties up Fred Savage to narrate Deadpool 2 in a Princess Bride-style framing device. Savage critiques the tale as Deadpool recounts his life: starting a new chapter with his girlfriend, Vanessa, as they plan to start a family. However, things take a turn when Cable, a soldier from the future, arrives to target Russell (Firefist), a troubled kid struggling with his powers and anger issues. Determined to protect Russell, Deadpool assembles the X-Force, a team of uniquely skilled heroes, to save the boy and stop Cable before he eliminates him. Overall, due to its irreverent humor and signature meta fourth-wall breaks, strong emotional core, over-the-top, and flamboyant fights, and Reynolds' charismatic and masterful performance as Deadpool (one of the best superhero castings ever), this movie is really good, and even though I wish it had an actual/more defined villain, and some of the scenes cut due to its rating were quite good and missed, I still enjoyed my time with this feature, and think that this was done quite well, the hilarious additions with Savage and from the Super Duper Cut are thoughtfully crafted to keep the film fresh while staying true to the original, and although you'll notice which scenes and dialogue are missing, it doesn't detract from the movie, it also does a great job at pushing the boundaries and edging the line, which makes it just as good as the original Deadpool 2.

I don't know anyone who hasn't seen the R version of this movie and still enjoys it. What? "PG-13 version of an R movie" or "R version of a PG-13 movie"? This is ridiculous. The movie should have been rated from the start. Changing it doesn't make it any better. Put Deadpool in a room with a friend and hold up a book about the movie? These extra scenes with lame jokes just make the movie fall apart in the middle of an already uninteresting story. If they wanted to target kids, they should have made sure no kids watched the R version afterwards. What a terrible attempt to make more money. Anyway, I have to admit the positive point of the PG-13 version is that they made the film shorter, and unintentionally made the story easier to follow, even though the interesting scenes were no longer there.
