Exploring the Multiverse: Deadpool and Wolverine in MCU | Action-Packed Comedy

Deadpool and Wolverine is exactly what you’d expect from a Deadpool film—chaotic, irreverent, and hilariously self-aware. But beneath the over-the-top violence and relentless humor, there’s an unexpected depth that gives this film more heart than its predecessors. The movie brilliantly weaves elements from the Loki series into the broader Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), bringing Deadpool and…

Deadpool & Wolverine (2024) - REVIEW

Let's be honest, it felt rather inevitable that Deadpool and Wolverine would come together and it's everything you'd hoped it to be. Anyone worrying about the prospect of a Disney owned Deadpool generally needn't worry as this is every bit as R rated and edgy as the first two movies and likewise goes all out. Does it give the Marvel Cinematic Universe a much needed shot in the arm? Not really for me because it doesn't quite feel like an actual part of the MCU even though it casts aside most of the side characters from Deadpool 1 and 2. This film instead does what Spider-Man: No Way Home did in effectively using the Multiverse phase to do its own thing. Deadpool and Wolverine at the very least is a tribute and final send-off to the Fox era of comic book movies that started with 2000's X-Men.

This still has plenty of fourth wall breaking quips from Ryan Reynold's Deadpool that pokes fun at everything from Hugh Jackman's perfect send-off in Logan, the Disney/Fox merger to even the state of the MCU itself. It never feels like it's ever being held back and is very funny from start to finish and most, if not all, of that comes down to Ryan Reynolds who has unquestionable mastered this role to perfection. But this movie has an added edge thanks to the return of Jackman's Wolverine who likewise has mastered his iconic character over the two decades. Reynolds and Jackman have incredible chemistry together whether they're working together, trading insults or fighting each other. The plot is a bit by the numbers that utilises the multiverse concept for some very fun moments that I won't spoil here but it is those moments that you'll remember rather than the plot. A big shout out should be given to Matthew Macfadyen's hilarious, villainous performance as Mr. Paradox. It's all terrific fun.

VERDICT

Deadpool and Wolverine may not reinvent or save the MCU as such, but it is consistently funny, bloody and a terrific night out at the cinema. What more could you want?

4/5

On the one hand I need to see Tom Holland go feral as Kaine Parker, particularly with longer curly hair, (looking like he did in this photoshoot) but on the other hand I don't know if the MCU would ever allow the sheer amount of blood, violence and swearing necessary to do Kaine justice

Since i watched Deadpool & Wolverine i strongly believe that Moon Knight deserved to be R-rated as well. I mean i think that since MK came out, but after D&W i think he deserved the same.

DeadpoolAndWolverine (2024): Let's talk about the elephant in the room: the story is the weakest of all three, and while the stakes are high , they don't feel of any importance.

Now for the Best part: Where do I even begin? The opening credits sequence is the best in the MCU. This movie is the 'Multiverse of Madness' we deserved, a love letter to the Fox Universe delivered with a bang! It's hilarious from the start, filled with goosebumps and cheer-worthy moments. Yes, it's a sort of a cameo-fest, but of the best kind.

Lastly, let's talk about Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman. Their banter is too good, the action is insane and the fan service is on another level. Hats off to @ShawnLevyDirect for pulling it all off and making one of the best movies in the MCU! DO NOT MISS IT!

deadpool in the mcu: 😐

deadpool forcing disney to finally make an r rated movie: <333

At the theater seeing Dune and I’m sad to report they censored the pegging joke in the Deadpool trailer

[youssefguedira]

look i haven't seen deadpool and wolverine and won't for another month if i see it at all (i'm not paying for it) so this is all conjecture but i find the fact that its marketing has been heavily focused on implying that deadpool and wolverine are/will be in a relationship, which is like clearly not going to happen this is the mcu lmao, and the fact that it has been pushing this so hard for a character whose queerness has entirely been reduced to essentially making gay jokes for extra edginess points while refusing to ever engage with it more deeply (i admit i haven't seen the first two deadpool movies in several years but he is in a long running relationship with a woman and just like. makes jokes about finding colossus hot to my memory) than that, Not A Good Look, you could say. and like come on it's 2024 this is textbook queerbaiting and for a movie that seems to be pushing its supposed potential queer relationship in all of its marketing all of the jokes have always just felt vaguely homophobic to me. maybe the movie will make me feel differently but like. i highly doubt that

I'm convinced that Dorothy (Nadine?) is some kind of Black Widow, she's definitely been trained in the Red Room

Deadpool's jokes about being "Marvel Jesus" are especially funny when you remember that no one thought Deadpool would be successful.

It was released at the worst possible fucking time for movies, in February, hence the joke about it being a "Valentine's Day movie" and was made with a really low budget for a superhero movie.

Hence all the jokes about being out of bullets, and not having enough money for cameos.

It was something of a sleeper hit...and now look at it.

Coming back, and saving the MCU at the MCU's lowest point...a true underdog story.

And also, you know.

Jesus Died. He came back three days later.

Connect the dots here.

Deadpool is actually Marvel Jesus.

It's a good joke in the film, and it's already looking like it's actually fucking true.

He's going to save the entire MCU, goddamnit.

The box office is going to be straight up nasty by the end of its run, and Disney sure will be glad they decided to let this r rated comedy join the ranks of the pristine and proper MCU.

See what happens when you take chances, Disney?

You little creatively bankrupt entertainment cucks?

With the current popularity of Quiet On Set and its revelations, I've been seeing a ton of people combing through old Nickelodeon shows for adult humor and disparaging it. I'm not talking about some of the outright fetishistic stuff, but simple wordplay in teen shows.

Which is weird for me, as I've generally seen old cartoon jokes like these enjoyed and even, in some obnoxious cases, taken as half-joking proof that "X was never a kid's show!" Is it just the context or the current trend towards Puritanism in youth culture?

True, there's gotta be a line SOMEWHERE... I've seen clips of Adventure Time making outright rape jokes, which has to be beyond the pale... and kids generally aren't involved in the production of cartoons, unlike Schneider's work. (Sex jokes acted out by adults /= sex jokes acted out by children)

But still, I don't want all media to be divided into "cartoons for babies" and "R-rated adult stuff" (and that weird Venn Diagram of Star Wars/MCU stuff that is supposed to serve both demographics, in the same way that both a man and a dog can eat dog food).

I think it's probably good for children's maturation to be eased into more adult media with some small amount of violence, dirty jokes, and risque material.

Kids cannot just watch Bluey until they turn eighteen. They can't. Don't ask them to.
