Well, that was damn entertaining flick to say the least. I'm not super well versed in the comics, but from the portion of Cable & Deadpool I've read, they nailed it. The wisecracking got a little repetitive at times, but it's on point with the character, and was witty for the most part.

One thing that kinda bothered me:

Spoiler!

Overall it was a great flick however, I'm not sure how well it would hold up to repeat viewings, but Reynolds knocked it out of the park.

Colossus is giving his "4 or 5 moments" speech as Deadpool is about to kill Francis seemed a little contrived given that: A) Colossus hopped into a cab with Deadpool and a duffle bag full of guns (also, where the hell was the X-Men's jet at that point!?) B) Deadpool had spent a good portion of the previous 15 minutes killing dozens of henchmen, and even defiled the bodies to spell out Francis with a pile corpses "Wade, the world can overlook dozens of dead henchmen, but this man who tortures desperate people to create a breed of super slaves deserves to live."
