Featured reviews
It was a fun movie overall with lots of good cameos and some very entertaining fight scenes. The movie lacked with quite a lot of filler areas with too many attempts at punchlines, a lot worked, a lot didn't.
The movie was quite long and could have been cut in a number of areas which was even referenced in the movie as it did feel like it was dragging in the over-extended middle act of the film. A lot of the dialogue in places were ruined by failed punchlines but that's the style that the film goes with.
Overall it was fun but nothing out of the ordinary, will do well in the box office! 7/10.

Alright, here's an extended review of "Deadpool 3":
"Deadpool 3 was an unexpected disappointment, falling far short of the franchise's earlier successes. The humor, which has always been Deadpool's most defining and entertaining quality, was sorely lacking in this latest installment. In previous movies, the jokes were sharp, irreverent, and perfectly timed, but in Deadpool 3, they felt forced and uninspired. It was as if the writers were trying too hard to recreate the magic of the first two films, but instead ended up with a series of awkward and unfunny moments that did not land.
Moreover, one of the most glaring issues with Deadpool 3 was the absurd amount of cameos. Cameos can be a fun and exciting surprise when used sparingly, but this movie took it to a ridiculous level. The sheer volume of them turned what could have been enjoyable Easter eggs into a frustrating distraction. Each new appearance pulled me further out of the story, making it difficult to stay engaged with the main plot. It seemed like the filmmakers were more interested in showcasing a parade of guest stars than focusing on a coherent and compelling narrative.
The overreliance on cameos also highlighted another problem: the lack of a strong, central story. In previous Deadpool films, the balance between character development, humor, and action was spot on. Deadpool 3, however, struggled to find its footing, often feeling like a disjointed series of skits rather than a cohesive story. This was particularly evident in the pacing, which was uneven and, at times, downright sluggish. Just when I thought the plot was finally gaining momentum, another cameo or a poorly executed joke would derail it.
Character development also took a hit in this film. The charm of the Deadpool character lies in his complexity and depth, but in this installment, he came off as a caricature of his former self. The nuances that made him such a compelling anti-hero were overshadowed by an overemphasis on crude humor and unnecessary antics. This was a real shame, as Ryan Reynolds has consistently brought a unique blend of wit and emotional depth to the role, but even his talents couldn't save the floundering script.
Additionally, the supporting characters, who had been so integral to the storylines of the previous movies, were underutilized and poorly written. Their interactions with Deadpool felt superficial, lacking the meaningful connections that had previously added layers to the narrative. The new characters introduced in this film failed to leave a lasting impression, making their presence feel like an afterthought rather than a carefully crafted addition to the Deadpool universe.
The action sequences, usually a high point in Deadpool films, were another letdown. They lacked the creativity and excitement that fans have come to expect. Instead of thrilling, well-choreographed fights, we were given generic and forgettable scenes that did little to elevate the overall experience. The visual effects, too, were inconsistent, with some moments looking surprisingly subpar for a movie of this budget and scale.
In conclusion, Deadpool 3 was a frustrating experience that failed to capture the essence of what made the first two films so special. The forced humor, excessive cameos, weak storyline, and lackluster action sequences all contributed to a movie that felt more like a cash grab than a genuine continuation of the beloved franchise. Fans of the Merc with a Mouth deserved better, and it's disappointing to see such a promising series take such a significant misstep."

When did cursing more become a recipe for humour?
Much of the film is filled with Wolverine and Deadpool needlessly stabbing of one another as if that was going to help the plot.
The cameos were more time fillers because the plot itself was without any substance.
They should stop Ryan Reynolds from writing screenplays. Anyone encouraging him should be accused of having an agenda.
If you feel that my review is stupid, ask yourself what's left of the film once you remove stupid insults, stabbing, shooting and witless sexual references?
I get that the film is a fantasy action film. It just doesn't deliver on any other level other than being base comedy.

We saw this at the midnight premiere in imperial Copenhagen, it was a fun experience meeting people in the middle of the night for a new movie, and assembling fans who enjoy this franchise as much as ourselves.
The movie in its entirety was very enjoyable, but it seemed like they just had to come up with something for the fun of it. Don't get me wrong, Ryan Reynolds does a phenomenal job, and the some scenes are just way to hilarious. But it lacked something which i somehow can't explain, it just seemed like they could have come up with a better story imo. But what do I know?
I say go for it, and at least you end up laughing.

Hugh Jackman is the perfect Wolverine. What a fun movie. I like the dialogue and clever quips with f bombs sprinkled in. It's definitely not taking itself too seriously. There is tons of fun cameos I didn't expect! I normally watch spoiler videos ahead of time, but I didn't on this occasion and I'm glad I didn't because there was some oh snap moments! It's a very good action packed fun film. The breaking the Fox jokes and speaking to the camera jokes are too funny. I can definitely see more sequels for these two on the horizon. They are promoting this movie hard I just watched these two on Hot Ones eating chicken wings They make a dynamic duo. Until your 90 Wolverine ...until your 90 lol.
Did you know
- TriviaHugh Jackman said he really was done playing the character of Wolverine after Logan (2017). He then said he regretted that statement after watching the first Deadpool (2016) and expressed to Ryan his interest in the two characters meeting on the big screen. When asked why he chose to return for this film, he simply said, "I just wanted to do it, and I felt it in my gut", adding that he wanted to have the best possible time ever on a movie set together with Ryan Reynolds. Likewise, Reynolds wanted to work alongside Jackman since the first Deadpool film and was saddened when he (Jackman) retired from the role.
- GoofsWhile Wolverine and Deadpool are making their odyssey in the Honda Odyssey, the car's clock jumps ahead three hours during their conversation.
- Quotes
