Deadpool embraces its R-rating with audacious abandon – as both an opportunity to revel in the Marvel antihero’s irreverence and as a way to differentiate Deadpool, as a film property, from an increasingly crowded PG-13 comic book movie schedule. Whether or not Hollywood (or even moviegoers) embrace Deadpool, the film is a rich (and laugh-out-loud funny) experience for fans in this moment – after a hard-fought battle to the big screen. It won’t be for everyone, especially sensitive viewers expecting Marvel and Fox to play it safe, but in doubling-down on his vision, Tim Miller has delivered a Deadpool adaptation that, at the absolute least, introduces audiences to the real Merc with a Mouth – rather than the unrecognizable Merc without a Mouth from X-Men Origins: Wolverine.
You go into a movie thinking the main character is the good guy and then BAM–you had it all wrong.
