The watch-ability is on a high scale here, as if you where really surprised, as long as you mind the numerous cuss words and exuberant violence. This one is very deserving of all it’s spoils since it took such an overhaul to create. You might wonder why X-Men didn’t shell out to include this guy. Believe me, it is addressed, as are a few other funny details. Glad they didn’t include him now, because this one works well all on it’s own with it’s R rating. Those that have tried to rally for a PG-13 rating really don’t get it, and probably never will. Glad Stan Lee agrees. BTW, his cameo is priceless!

The narration and attention paid to the audience makes for great storytelling antics and keeps the attention. Ryan Reynolds was born to play this role as his tongue has always been as sharp as his looks. The other roles where filled nicely as we get to see some fresh characters from the X-Men universe that have taken a back row at the cinema.

All together it seemed quickly folded up, but I feel it works alright that way due to the subject matter. It’s not suppose to be a drawn out backstory. It’s an action-packed vulgar thrill-ride till the end that hits it’s target! I am no comic book fan, but the fan-based seems pleased with this one. That is one of the most important things when bringing these stories to life. Hope this one’s not the last, but I have a feeling it won’t be.
