Many people might feel different - and I respect their opinion - but I've grown tired of the entirely bloodless CGI overkill in all those 200 million productions where even the most terrible villains talk like Mormon schoolgirls. If Deadpool is a financial success - which at this point is already clear it will be - this could play a vital role in how studios henceforth view the financial prospects of R-rated superhero films, and we'll hopefully see more of them in the future. And it's actually a very important film for another reason. The villain in this revenge tale could be more memorable and the story itself is a bit too derivative to really do its highly unconventional protagonist (he insists he's not a hero) justice: but it's a damn good first entry in a franchise that will hopefully explore the character and his world to a much larger extent in the sequel(s). Despite all my praise, it's not a perfect film. It's a clinical condition he's not a stand-up comedian whose jokes need to land: he's a madman (albeit a very entertaining one) and the comedy in his case is born out of tragedy.

Deadpool can't help himself as long as he's able to breathe he'll crack wise and make fun of himself and those around him. Not every line or every joke lands - but that's the beauty of this character: they don't really need to. The humor, which I initially feared would just be non-stop juvenile wisecracks and soon become distracting, also works surprisingly well.

The love story in this film is probably the most sincere I've ever seen in a superhero movie and it gives the film the strong emotional core which so many of these movies lack. What came as a complete surprise to me was how unabashedly romantic Deadpool is. But, and that was probably the key to me liking the film so much, there's a beating heart underneath all the action and carnage, and that has a lot to do with how brilliantly Ryan Reynolds portrays the character and the great chemistry he has with co-star Morena Baccarin. The action itself is beautifully designed, employing playful visuals and using pretty much every camera technique available it never feels repetitive and the pacing is close to perfection. And that's exactly how Deadpool felt to me right from the start: like a fresh (if somewhat dirty) jolt of energy. Flashbacks and fast-forwards can be annoying as hell, but when done right, they can help render even a somewhat simple story fresh and exciting. The film throws you into the action from the first moment (literally: the very first moment) and then it goes back and forth in brilliant and unexpected ways to slowly unspool the story of this insane - but oddly charming - antihero. The first thing I noticed was how inventive the storytelling is. After most critics unexpectedly showered this newest superhero movie with praise, I went in cautiously optimistic (but still fully prepared to hate the film). Still, I remained interested in the film, I just never expected it to actually be good - until the reviews arrived. Seriously, I was never a fan of the character (in the sense that I hardly knew anything about him) and the humor as well as the violence seemed forced and overdone in the trailers. The Indian Blu-ray release is uncut (despite also showing an A certificate on the back cover). The visual cuts were replaced with zoomed in versions of the same sequences and hence there is no change in the duration of the movie except for an anti-smoking PSA added voluntary that added exactly 2 minutes to the movie, changing the total duration to a 110 minutes and 47 seconds, as per the CBFC's list of edits. The general censorship of violence/sex/swearing totaled 3 minutes and 53 seconds. Static, scrolling messages were also added whenever a character is shown smoking.
