2 out 4 stars? I think that was more than generous! This movie was train wreck, I'd of given it HALF A STAR

My defense for going easy on these summer flicks is that it's getting harder to make truly hideous films. You can't make Mortal Kombat: Annihilation in 2009, there is just too much money being spent to "fail" that epically with a nationwide theatrical release. Retroactively, I should have thrown a chair at the screen during Transformers 2: Secret of the Ooze and Indy Jones 4: Crystal Cash In

I havent seen this film but from what I hear no one seems to like it, a few people have told me it's basiclly super heros running around yelling and screaming and stabbing each other.

[VaughnFry]

Those people gave you a good summary.

I like the solution with the poster in the background and I also didn't enjoy Wolverine. But I'd probably keep the reviews shorter (max. 5min) and focus on essential points of your critics - keep it shorter. And from my experience keeping one take for several minutes without a break never works. People get bored. I'd say its be better to mix it up with trailer footage (for example...you talk about one aspect of your critic... few seconds trailer footage... next aspect... footage).

I've tried to liven it up with zooms accompanied with cuts, people just got mad. My viewership has increased 100% with the new format, but it takes no less than 6 hours to make these videos. Rapid cuts are simply going to depend on how fluent I am right after viewing the movie.

I try to focus on a things a little differently in my videos, whereas my written reviews follow the standard format familiar to followers of Roger Ebert.

Did you even pay attention to this story? Or do you suppose?

[scottieman2]

The CGI is bad in this movie. The part where he has his metal claws out the bathroom, yeah, that looked horrible. SEGA graphics are better.

[scottieman2]

Well, with the whole bullet getting cut in two, that isn't plausible in a movie, but a comic it's just fine?

Wade is Deadpools real name

[GigglinMarley]

Should have gived it 0 stars. This film was slap in the face for fans and a joke at best.

[wdsa8d]

i thought this movie was shit

[narlycarlie2014]

Go to HELL!!

[TehEvilWolf]

lol you never warned us when you spoiled the ending XD

[TehEvilWolf]

i would give this movie like... idk. a 4/5 because some of the scenes and graphics were a bit too cheesy. other than that i liked this movie a lot. plus the acting was great except for that one dude who likes to use guns o.o lol. keep in mind im only 13, not the brightest knife in the drawer so yeah, lol.

I thought they mistreated Wade Wilson, too-he's just too clichéd. Pity-he's a great character, they could've had his wise-ass insanity more defined, but that's just me.

Rest of your review is spot on, though. I thought it was terrible, which is a pity coz I LOVED the opening and it just got progressively worse.

Cliché after cliché, in its characterisation and its storytelling, too much fanservice, and unnecessarily so, and just WORSE than what I was suspecting, which isn't saying much :(
