Rated R

The third DEADPOOL movie is the first under the Disney brand, and it also taps into the classic characters from the 20th Century Fox films, most notably Wolverine.

Hugh Jackman is back… again… as an alternate Logan, and it’s his chemistry with Deadpool activist and star Ryan Reynolds that anchors the film.

Admittedly, the story is a bit flimsy, with Deadpool being tapped to save the sacred timeline in a wild and wacky romp into the R-rated multiverse.

But story is kinda unimportant. It’s really an excuse to have fun and see a load of characters and cameos on the screen together.

Make no mistake: DEADPOOL AND WOLVERINE is a full-blown comedy disguised as a messy and often inappropriately violent action film. But for those who have been waiting years for something like this, it’s an absolute blast.

DEADPOOL AND WOLVERINE gets four variants out of five. I’m Kevin Carr, and that’s the way I see it.
