Saw last night. Enjoyed it. Laughed a lot. Not better than the first but that may be due to DP1's novelty at the time.

Spoiler

Steady shytted on DC throughout the movie.

Calling Domino "black Black Widow"

When he tried to calm down Juggs with the "Hey, big guy. Sun's gettin' real low..."

Over 10 years and I still can't watch Juggernaut without sayin "Juuuuggs got yaaAAaaAAaa."

Damn shame Tim Miller should've been on this with this weak ass story


Wasted characters. Cable was pointless

Didnt like how they did Cable. Domino. Or juggernaut


This movie is for kids who turn off they brain

 

[Luke Cage]

I'm already tired of this fourth wall gimmick.

3rd one might be skipped unless they up the ante storywise.

 

[Black Samurai]

The movie was cool, but as already stated by others, the first one was better

 

[marcuz]

I need more backstory on how the future got messed up.

I refuse to believe someone who only power is setting shyt on fire had the streets/mutants in fear of him

could simply be the days of future past timeline

You know, I think after BP and IW back to back the bar is just kind of raised for me personally lol.

lol so this deadpool is #notmypool

Same for me. This shyt was only okay. Just sum'n to watch. Da forced mayo monster humor gets old very quick.

 

[FlyRy]

There was some dude just HOWLING the entire movie which made it 70% funnier

 

[FlyRy]

Almost forgot. Domino

If you would watch Atlanta you'd get a lot more of her :Jimmy:

I thought Yukio looked

Oh golly gee, that's sure to make me watch now

There's only a few things that have stuck with me since seeing this....3 days ago.

Unfortunately, the biggest one is the bullshyt they pulled with Vanessa. Textbook fridging followed by a copout reversal in the stinger. Everything about it feels shallow, cheap and wrong.

Im fully aware that this isnt a serious franchise but both movies in this series havent done it for me.

Movie was ok at best but i felt like it dragged on, did have a few funny moments but im done with this series

 

[Mr. Manhattan]

I thought it was better than the first movie, good not great

 

[Lefty Gunz]

Saw it earlier today, it was cool. Have a feeling it will zero replay value to me like the first one

Domino

Vanessa

I didn't mind the 'Women in Refrigerators' trope as much because it was actually handled pretty well (aside from the mid-credits scene) and it gave the film some much needed gravitas. I get why people would have a problem with it, and it ultimately speaks to the larger problem of this movie.

This movie falls into the very trap I figured it would: it's not nearly as smart or subversive as it thinks it is, and it cheats its way through a lot of points. It constantly pokes fun at itself and other superhero movies, while falling into the exact same tropes ('Women in refrigerators,' adding a team or sidekick in the sequel, having to save some annoying brat kid). The first film did exactly the same thing, but it had the novelty of being fresh and new. The sequel needs to step it up. It's the very reason Family Guy got so tired after a while: at a certain point, you can't just point out bad writing. You have to write better.

The first and third acts were pretty decent, and the ending was pretty strong (except for the mid-credits scene), but the second act felt like it dragged on forever. The X-Force audition scenes felt stale, not funny, and not needed, and them all dying except for Domino wasn't funny either. Also, for as much shyt as Black Panther (deservedly) got for its poor cgi scenes, the cg here was even worse. That Domino scene looked like shyt.

But overall, it was still a pretty fun movie. On the Double Toasted rating scale, I'd give it a Matinee.

Didn't even catch the Matt Damon cameo
