First reviews of Deadpool and Wolverine are in
Deadpool and Wolverine is the first R-rated movie in the Marvel Studios and is expected to track a grand opening of $165 million on its opening weekend this week. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the first reactions to the entire movie run are pouring in on social media platform X ahead of the official critics’ review. The film is said to be the saviour Marvel needed after its previous failures at the Box Office and OTT platforms. Viewers were also surprised by the cameos the Deadpool team was able to rope in.
One user on X wrote, “Deadpool & Wolverine is so much fun. Marvel absolutely threw me a curveball by making this a tribute to the Fox superheroes, but it plays super well. Funny, gory, and massively satisfying. A blast that doesn’t overstay its welcome. Well done.”

A second user wrote, “Shocker to no one that the Deadpool and Wolverine reactions are calling it marvels best since ‘Endgame’. We are so back,” while a third user wrote, “DEADPOOL & WOLVERINE feels miraculous. A high energy ode to superhero cinema past that goes beyond nostalgia into kid in a candy store madness, the Ryan Reynolds/Hugh Jackman is everything you wanted and more, despite some grating toilet humor.”

The Hollywood Handle on X wrote, “#DeadpoolAndWolverine is as exciting as you’re expecting it to be. It manages to have the same tone as the previous films with super funny jokes and a story that will have you laughing and crying. Hugh Jackman delivers one of his best performances as Wolverine and the film is packed with great surprises that thankfully don’t affect the course of the story.”
A verified user on X, Brandon Davis BD, wrote, “Deadpool & Wolverine is an insane, bombastic Marvel wet dream. Plenty of surprises but with epic action, excessive violence, and relentless humor (most of which landed for me). Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds overdelivered. It’s a lot to process. I had a blast.”
