    I went to watch it yesterday.

    The plot is paper thin and the movie banks heavily on nostalgia and fan service.

    This article accurately describes how I felt after watching the movie.

      Of all complaints, I don’t see how this changed the canon of the MCU. Deadpool rubbed up against the MCU main universe, but was only for the briefest time actually inside of it. It was a harmless penetration of the MCU canon. Deadpool spent most of the time with Fox characters and fighting on the island of misfit toys.

    It was entertaining. It wasn’t horrible. I liked the cameos with the villain. It wasn’t a masterpiece. But it was fun. I liked the fights between Wolverine and Deadpool. They showed their relationship and it made the ending make sense.

    Where it was lost is that it was not the silly Deadpool that was in the first two. I wish there were more parts with the prior two casts that drove the ending and story. But it was already long.

    I would watch it again. It’s better than the latest Thor and a needed addition to the MCU.

      Are you talking about the second movie where he was suicidally depressed the whole time?

      Deadpool was incredibly silly in this movie. Like the other movies, his comedy got complimentary screentime with his serious motivation.

    Since when was Deadpool part of the MCU? Yes it’s Marvel, but it’s its own thing on the side and for a different audience. Just like the spiderverse movies aren’t part of the MCU.
