   Can you make a movie that's 100% meta? Well, apparently not, if you ask me. Combined with the multiverse crap and adamantium, it means that there are zero stakes, no danger and no purpose. It just felt like two hours of trailer moments: One liners and CGI choreography interchanging. 1 month 2 weeks ago

   There's an early scene in Deadpool & Wolverine when Wade realizes he's an MCU movie and that it will mean lots of cameos and unlimited use of variants (if you haven't watched Loki, parts of this will seem even weirder than they are, but we run through enough exposition). It's a herald of things to come and even mentioning what other characters appear is a spoiler. I'll just say that this is a tribute to the movie continuities that have been undone by Marvel/Disney recovering the rights to various characters, and therefore a goodbye to Hugh Jackman's Wolverine that both desecrates Logan (the film) and adds a beautiful epilogue to it. Jackman is acting his socks off here despite the fact that this is a meta-textual, potty-mouthed spoof of superhero movies (and the Marvel formula in particular). If I put this one at the same level as Deadpool 2, it's largely due to his contribution. Full props to Matthew Macfadyen as the nominal villain too - I was surprised at how well he did comedy. So lots of deep cuts, for movie fans, but for comic book fans especially. Marvel really takes its recent failures on the chin in terms of allowing the movie to laugh at them. The wild action is a lot of fun. The plot is a bit of a picaresque to hang the jokes onto, so nothing too great there, but it does act as a cathartic palate cleanser as we head, perhaps, into a new phase of Marvel movies that hopefully renounce the sins of the past couple years. 1 month 1 week ago
