Deadpool

Am I late??

Oh Shit!!

Whatever! Lets review this thing!!

Ever since the leaked test-footage a few years back, everyones been anxious for a deadpool movie. Wich we now have. And its Amazing with a capital A! No one thought there would be a market for an R-rated comic-book movie about a foul-mouthed superantihero. But then it came out and broke all the walls (Like, 16 of them) and box-office records. And while a lot of it can be attributed to marketing, is the movie itself so good that it couldve done so without it.

Not much more can be said about it that hasn't already been said. Ryan Reynolds nails his role and the writing is phenomenal. The supporting cast is amazing in their roles and the effects are decent. While a great many old people think of this film as an abomination, I personally like to think of it as an example to other films that as long as its good, it doesnt have to be stripped of all the action to be succesfull. Thanks to this film the next wolverine-film might be R-rated and actually edgy for a change.

I personally cant wait for the next one. Hopefully Fox wont cut the budget for it like it did for this one. At least the worked around it brilliantly.

The Hateful Eight

Skit can be found here =)

Quentin Tarantino is often accused of plagiarising his own and other peoples work. And the H8ful 8 is no exeption! This time the master of violence has stolen the plot from Agatha Christie and the structure from himself. Yes, its a good and entertaining film and all that crap, but theres alot of riding on the Tarantino name alone, and the focus appears to have been to make a tribute to firstly westerns and secondly to Tarantinos earlier work. Things like shooting in 70 mm and using the old-fashioned method of repeating every frame to make a slow-mo shot.

But enough of this complaining! The movie kicked some serious butt!!! It truly was like an Agatha Christie novel with its tense and gripping moments of intensity and violence. Even though there are in fact 9 hateful people going all internet-comment-section on eachother and murderizing eachother to shit! I wont spoil anything but imagine a cross between Then there were none, Murder on the orient express, Reservoir dogs and a western, you're pretty close to what this film basically is.

The production desing was perfect, the set, the costuming, the oscar-nominated score..... And the casting couldnt have been better, in the end, you truly hate each and every one of the characters, wich I suppose was the goal, and still not spoiling anything, the murders are pretty inventive and awsome. It was in fact so filled to the brim with gore that I was rubbing my face for pieces of intestens for a few hours after leaving the theatre. So fair warning about that.

If you go see this movie, you will not be dissappointed or bored, for while it feels long, it doesnt feel like it drags. Wich is perfect, given that its over 3 hours long. So go see this incredibly grotesque and potentially traumatizing film, you will enjoy it very much.
