Genre: Action/Thriller
Me rates it: 4.6/5
Grade: If u like romance comedy or you are trying to make the next dead pool movie
Adjusted rating: 4.99 (for personal bias)
I was expecting a knock-off/reversed version of dead pool: funny, nobody, fight scenes and the whole ordeal. Normal dude, something special happened, this guy can’t feel but can die; u get it reversed Deadpool. But I guess novocaine has done it. It might have taken all the bits from Deadpool movie and reversed it. It’s funny, unlike the latest Deadpool in the big screen, it's original and yes it might just have the same spark we once found in the first Deadpool movie.
Enough about Deadpool, let's talk about the movie itself. It’s hands down impressively immersive and I honestly have not felt so attached to a movie for quite a while. The puns are not forced, and the jokes are generic: you never see them coming. Just when you think it’s as funny as it gets, it somehow manages to top it. From the camera shots to the plot, it’s mostly impeccable, and I wish I could say that about more movies(I am picky). It is the perfect balance between comedy and plot progression; being realistic and exciting; story unpredictability and just generally making sense/smooth scenes(And no, it's not easy). I don’t usually notice film directors, but hats off to you Dan Berk.
The funny thing is Cola dummies just got recalled. And being that this is easily the favourite movie of the year and maybe even within this half a decade, I kinda wanna try give pie another chance to see if I like em.
As always, try lowering your expectations, and just enjoy the movie together or alone.
