Short Movie Reviews
DEADPOOL & WOLVERINE (2024) –
What if the MULTIVERSE exists and is real -- almost identical universes with near identical people living side-by-side with worm-hole doors some traverse while others cannot? This movie presents this concept in a somewhat interesting, violent format typical of Marvel superhero movies. While it is easy to follow Deadpool's (Ryan Reynolds) journey to locate a living Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) to help him save his universe and revive its timeline, some folks may find the homo-eroticism between them excessive. (Hugh Jackman came out after his wife divorced him.) Someone also needs to let Marvel know that superheroes in plastic suits do NOT seem so super, so please use natural fabrics and leather instead of the tons of plastic plating, etc., that adorn their costumes.
The intertwining history of superhero movies is illustrated when these characters get trapped momentarily in a junkyard dumping ground of discarded artifacts which are pop culture metaphors: a S.H.I.E.L.D. hellicarrier, the spires of the Williamsburg bridge (site of a Spider-Man battle), and the top of the Statue of Liberty's torch (the original 1968 Planet of the Apes, a Fox production), all buried in the ground, from films released by 20th Century Fox (which was swallowed by Disney in 2019).
I have seen this movie two or three times, and every audience laughs throughout it.
