What to Know

Critics Consensus

Fast, funny, and gleefully profane, the fourth-wall-busting Deadpool subverts superhero film formula with wildly entertaining -- and decidedly non-family-friendly -- results.

5/5
"Deadpool" is the most red-faced and side-splitting movie of the comic genre to date. It makes "Guardians of the Galaxy" look like C-SPAN when it comes to non-stop action and humor. Go to Full Review
