When Hollywood was having its overdose of superhero frenzy films and suffocating the overseas fans with the superhero movie spree, one hopeful light at the end of the tunnel was DEADPOOL.
Be it the teaser, the trailer or the smallest promotion, there was a mix of innovation and bad-assness guaranteed from the film...
So let's see if the movie has lived up to its expectation...
Deadpool is the kind of movie, which had generated a list of expectations and the end result is that, it turns out to be exactly what it was expected to be!
A bonkers action story, which delivers all the goods the teasers, trailers and promotions promised. The movie begins with a scene which will easily bag the title 'The action sequence of the year' (it can only be beaten by the likes of John Wick 2) and the most innovative title card after a lonnnnnnnggggggggg time...
The story is about Wade Wilson, who has the perfect life until he is diagnosed with cancer. He undergoes a scientific procedure, which leaves him scarred for life. And as expected the rest of the story revolves around payback and fixing his once happy life.
It is a rather bland origin story, which follows the usual beat of a superhero flick. But what distinguishes Deadpool from the rest is the action and the fourth wall humor.

What works out :
Deadpool's kebab sequence, the fourth wall humor, the action sequences and the man himself,
'Ryan Reynolds' as 'Deadpool' bring all the magic to this film and give this film the 'Cult' status that it deserves.
The Spoilers :
Thanks to Marvel and DC comics, we have seen a humongous number of superhero origin flicks, and sadly Deadpool is also one among them. Now that's a small hiccup in a movie like Deadpool and in addition to it the movie feels a bit too grounded.
Verdict :
Despite the flaws, 'Deadpool' is the kind of superhero, you have a blast with. So, here's the bottom line- Deadpool is awesometacular. The fourth wall humour and the action itself warrant a sequel.
Bring on 'DEADPOOL 2' !
