Deadpool.
I liked it. Was a bit of fun. Nothing amazing.
I was a little disappointed that his healing factor was never put all that much to the test and that the depths of just how broken and mentally fractured an individual he is wasn't really present - there was a lot of darkness they could have touched on, but didn't.
They got his cartoon side down though...just felt like a lot of history was ignored to make a more accessible movie - that, they did well though.
Blind Al was...not really Blind Al and an integral part of their original relationship dynamic was completely void...but anyways.
Some good action scenes.
Reynolds does clearly love the character.
I've nothing really bad to say about it at all, and feel a bit spoiled as someone who's read the character since way back when he was a "villain" in the new mutants and x-titles, then his glorious mid 90's series...maybe that's just it...

I will say this though, really, if you like the movie - try to get a hold of a collected edition of the 90's series, and the follow up Cable & Deadpool.

I'd give the film, biased though I may be, a 7.
