As promised in the Weather thread, here is a brief note about Deadpool 2. I'm going to gloss over a few things so as not to reveal too many spoilers.
It was on our list to see and I decided that staying in a cool movie theatre was the better part of anything, so off we went. The movie has some of the same cast returning: Ryan Reynolds, the bartender, the taxi driver, the blind lady and the two X-Men characters. Joining them are a few new mutants plus some new characters filling in as the bad guys.
The NSFW language and snarky running commentary by a wise cracking Reynolds are also there. It does wear a bit thin but overall, it works.
The plot is fairly solid and the way they weave in the other plots is good too, although there are one or two bits that don't quite add up for me. Again, glossing over to prevent spoilers. There are also several gut busting funny scenes that are worth the price of admission alone.
It doesn't have the novelty "wow!" factor that any first movie has but I'd still give it a good rating. If you liked the first one, you'll definitely like this one.
