[GreenLantern]

Well I was expecting to really enjoy this one and he blew me away, all expectations were exceeded. I loved the pokes at Green Lantern and his previous run of Deadpool, they were in good taste and perfectly timed. I couldn't believe just how good he was as Deadpool, like it was unreal. I have very limited exposure to the Deadpool comics, but I did read a few arcs before seeing this just so I would have a better idea and Reynolds seemed to be bang on. Again like most comic book movies, his Wade Wilson might have been a bit off.. but we can definitely look past that. It seems almost every comic book movie has trouble capturing the character without the costume and for me it didn't take away from the movie at all like it did with Nolan's Batman movies.

If I had to poke one hole it would possibly be the shallow villains, snarky brit and can't act only give me 3 lines please UFC fighter were pretty meh, but it's an opening movie and they were able to weave them into the story line well. And then the cameo by Colossus and Teenage Warhead just trumped any loose ends the villains brought. So, so, so well done. The scene where Colossus first shows up and the brit gets away was one of my favorite. How they left the movie was great as well, looking forward to seeing Cable show up for the next one.

I would put this up there with DOFP and Winter Soldier for my favourite comic book movie to date. It gets extra points for originality and a fresh look at the genre.
