RT is pretty mediocre too tbh. will finish with low 70s which would be around MoM Edited July 24 by lorddemaxus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ringedmortality Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 Man who could have seen the mixed reviews coming. Shawn Levy is SUCH a good director. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emoviefan Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 The last 24 hours of this thread is exhibit A for what a insane asylum this place truly is. Are we seeing Dark Knight level reviews here? Of Course not., And anybody that thought a Shawn Levy movie would get that level of praise is insane. But we sure as shit are not seeing Batman and Robin or even close as some suggested. Unless this pulls a WW 1984 it's probably not going rotten and it probably stays above 70%. And by all accounts it will be a GA crowd pleaser.

fabiopazzo2 Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 Its really fun movie if you love Deadpool I hate him but I love high and Cassandra omg she was so perfect in this movie 7/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Porthos Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 (edited) Low to mid 70s it is then*. Bit lower than I thought it would likely be last night, but a bit higher than I thought it would be this morning. * Well, probably. Should be good enough to keep the fuel of the current pace of ticket sales, but we'll see about it being good enough to add some jet fuel to them.

dudalb Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 21 minutes ago, grey ghost said: Good point. Movies like Venom, Suicide Squad and Deadpool appeal to juggalos, bikers and juvenile delinquents. They could give two shits about "metacritic". These movies are critic proof. God, so much is wrong with that. You leave out quality. The Deadpool movies and ths Second Suicide Squad movie are a lot better then the Venom movies. And I don't think that " juggalos, bikers and juvenile delinquents" alone can generate the kind of box office the Deadpool movies have.

I think the words 'dying' and 'genre' should be switched if the review is in defense of the genre ending. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And by all accounts it will be a GA crowd pleaser. This place has always had a lot of BiPolar..what used to be called Manic Depressive users. Either a movie is going to be a gigantic hit or a huge flop..nothing in between. I think that the return of Deadpool and having him with Wolverine is enough of a box office draw to make this a pretty big hit. And I can name plenty of movies with not very good RT scores that have been huge box office hits. You alos have a problem with those proclaiming the MCU is dead the MCU fans who think everything ts going to go back the way they were before 2020. I think the MCU will survive, but it will not have the kind of phenmenol sucess it had between 2012 (when the Avengers came out) and 2019. That was akind of thing that only happens once in a very great while, and expecting it t last forever was never very realistic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fabiopazzo2 Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 Wolverine and Cassandra are the best part of the movie for me. they are truly incredible and their lines of dialogue will leave you speechless, in fact I would have liked a film just about the two of them. Deadpool is Deadpool for better or for worse. if you like it you will like it if you don't like it.... bear with it. There are surprises. there are action scenes too and the film fortunately never gets boring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thajdikt Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 (edited) Movie is fucking incredible. One of the best theater experience I’ve had. Best MCU movie post Endgame for me. Has everything peak mcu had in the infinity saga. I will be shocked if audiences don’t love this. Edited July 24 by thajdikt 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeQ Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 Deadpool: 85% - 7.1 rating Deadpool 2: 84% - 7.1 rating Deadpool & Wolverine: 79% - 7.1 rating Clearly will be a step down in overall critical reception, but not considerably so. It doesn't sound like these reviews will be problematic for box office performance and audience reception, particularly given what the reviews are saying. But who knows - it remains to be seen.

Porthos Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 Just gonna point out that Eric has already opened up the Spoiler/RTM thread: Already seen some semi-spoily stuff in this thread from folks, and while I personally don't care one whit, others might. Just thought I should bring it to folks attention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rebel3000 Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 This is such a wild thread though. I was nearly convinced that this would be rotten on RT based on the doom and gloom here. Judging by what the negative reviews are saying this still seems like a movie audiences will really like. Still going with an A Cinemascore. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFlatLannister Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 79% on RT with 120+ reviews I dont really see it dropping below 70s at this point. Will probably settle around 70%-75% which is not a kiss of death for a fanboy film. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
