If you saw the first Deadpool film and liked that you're going to like this one. I'm not really sure how it works on its own because I, for one, was happy I had saw the first one again just a few days prior. There were a lot of references to the first movie as well as pop culture references in general. At times I felt it got a bit overboard, but honestly I'm not one of those people who minds them. In fact I usually like them. I felt that at times they just repeated the same joke from the first film and that did feel a bit...old.
Spoilers ahead!
Otherwise it's a fun film. As in the first film it has the same crude, rude, yet creative and fun humour that really fits into this film's general tone. I'm not the one for gross comedy and swearing and sex jokes, but the ones in this film are creative. Also, Marvel has done enough death scenes recently that Deadpool's had me wonder if he was actually going to die. And even if he would have - it would have still been a fun scene and it's hard to make death scenes not feel too heavy. Shrek has done the comically slow death joke before, but it was still funny. I'm not saying it was completely void of clichés, but I am saying it was fun to watch and I laughed a lot and some of the humour was very creative and it was all very true to the way Deadpool is.
Basically it comes down to this - if you like Deadpool you'll like this and if not then I don't think you will? But I did. If you don't know if you like Deadpool yet, give it a go! Maybe you will.
