We meet Wade Wilson, who has just been diagnosed with cancer of the liver, lungs, prostate and brains, or, as he quipped, “nothing I can’t live without.” After a shady organization promises that it can not only save him, but turn him into a superhero, Wade accepts. But not without throwing some serious shade at Reynolds’ previous, poorly received superhero movie, “Green Lantern.” “You just promise you’ll do right by me so I can do right by someone else,” he says. “And please don’t make the super suit green. Or animated!” What follows is a display of violence and hilarity like nothing seen in a superhero movie before. Saying that “Daddy needs to express some rage,” Wade as Deadpool flips a car, shoots a single bullet through three separate heads and inhales the scent of his smoking gun. “I’m touching myself tonight,” he says, in the character’s trademark fourth-wall-breaking. We see three different modes of Reynolds: the face we’re used to, his totally suit-covered Deadpool face and his demolished post-chemo face. As T.J. Miller quips, “You are haunting. You look like an avocado had sex with an older avocado.”
