Movie Review and GIVEAWAY: Deadpool & Wolverine on digital {ends 10/21}
LFG! Marvel Studios’ Deadpool & Wolverine bursts onto digital retailers (Prime Video, Apple TV and Fandango) on October 1 and explodes on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray and DVD on October 22.

The highly anticipated introduction of the edgy, and dynamically comical heroes into the Marvel Cinematic Universe has already proven to be a massive success, becoming the biggest rated-R movie in history and the #5 highest-grossing MCU domestic release of all-time. “The movie broke so many records,” said Ryan Reynolds. “The only way to describe how I feel is, just south of ‘I’m finally enough’ and slightly north of, ‘I forgive my father.’”

Certified-Fresh and Verified Hot on Rotten Tomatoes™ and celebrated by critics as “Just really f*cking fun” (Kristy Puchko, Mashable), “Fires on all cylinders, and one viewing is not enough” (Pete Hammond, Deadline), and “The Greatest Film Ever Made” (Ryan Reynolds), the home entertainment release goes far beyond the fourth wall with exclusive content featuring a hilarious gag reel, deleted scenes, all-new featurettes, filmmaker commentary with director/producer/writer, Shawn Levy and star/producer/writer, Ryan Reynolds and much more of that extras s$%t fans love.

Plus, get your socks ready, nerds…you can look for all the cameos and easter eggs you missed in the theater when the film arrives in stunning, mind-blowing 4K Ultra HD Dolby Vision® along with Atmos® audio for the finest picture and sound presentation at home!

Moreover, a maximum effort has gone into Amazon Prime Video’s Bonus X-ray Experience. More revealing than red spandex, it includes featurettes you can’t get just anywhere including Deadpool doodles, character pros and cons, and trivia that’s been fact-checked by the Merc with a Mouth himself (pinkie swear). And there’s a carousel of fun on Fandango at Home and crisp, juicy bits on Apple TV for pumpkin-pie lovers and everyone else, including those who are Avengers-adjacent, to enjoy.

The 4K UHD Blu-ray will be released in a national sku and special limited-edition SteelBooks®, featuring exclusive custom art and packaging. Fans will see red and yellow with two SteelBook versions to choose – one version spotlights Deadpool and the other showcases Wolverine, with images of each character’s multiple variants in all their glory included inside!

A special edition Blu-ray will be available exclusively at Walmart, featuring a Deadpool corps pop-up inside for an extra rise in fun!
 
Film synopsis
Marvel Studios presents their most significant mistake to date – Deadpool & Wolverine. A listless Wade Wilson toils away in civilian life. His days as the morally flexible mercenary, Deadpool, behind him. When his home world faces an existential threat, Wade must reluctantly suit up again with an even more reluctantlier... reluctanter? Reluctantest? He must convince a reluctant Wolverine to... oh hell, just watch the movie. Synopses are stupid.

My review:
There are three Deadpool movies, and I binge-watched (rewatched) the other two on Disney+, of all places (because Hulu content is now on Disney+ too) the day I saw Deadpool & Wolverine. Because of that, although I enjoyed this one, I'd give it 3.5/5 stars. The original is my favorite and I think I gave Deadpool 2 3.5 stars out of five. 

"I saw the new Deadpool yesterday, and to prepare, I binge-watched the first two—I had seen both when they came out, but that was 2016 and 2018, which feels like 10 years ago due to COVID. Oddly enough, you can stream them both on Disney+ (I believe most Hulu content is on Disney+ now, so that's why). I stand by my reviews for the first two: 4/5 for the original, and 3.5/5 for the 2nd one. For the newest one ... I don't know how to rate it. It was a lot of fun, but the max I can give it is 3.5/5, I think. I was a little disappointed because everyone had talked up how good it was, and it was definitely an entertaining movie, with a lot of cool action sequences, but IMO none of them live up to the first one."

I did a rewatch lately and I stand by my 3.5/5 review, although, like I said, it's a lot of fun, and if you enjoyed the first two Deadpool movies you will enjoy this one as well.

*Disclosure: I received a gift card to try the new Polar Pizza at Baskin-Robbins. The opinions expressed here, however, are my own. Baskin-Robbins launched its Polar Pizza last month (July), as I talked about in my recent post about them, and because this past month was crazy busy for me, I didn't get to try the Polar Pizza until this past Sunday. My parents and I went to the combined Dunkin' Donuts / Baskin-Robbins near them, in Novi, MI, to split one of the ice cream pizzas.
