Fuck. It’s like they are determined to run every movie into the ground.
cultural appropriation jokes everywhere
jokes about cops being racist
an orphanage full of white guys that (without any explanation) "are ALL pedophiles"
"don't kill anyone", proceeds to kill only white people
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
ahh
the main "kid" of the plot is a really fat guy
and one of his lines is about fat people representation in Hollywood on acting roles
Rotten tomatoes has it in the 80% mark and usually if a movie is too SJW it gets to around 60%. Might be ok regardless.
Well... one of the lesbians was obviously into deadpool, sooo...
Always go by the audience score on Rotten Tomatoes. The critic score is political.
The audience score for Deadpool 2 is about the same as the critic score so it can't be that bad.
But you also get things like this:

I remember listening to a podcast and the guy on there said that it's better for a movie to get a Rotten Tomatoes score in the mid 80's rather than the 90's, as a score in the 90's is the sign of a film for critics while a score in the 80's is more of a sign of mainstream appeal
That makes sense to me.
Maybe I've been watching the "solo: a star wars story" reviews while the critical score has stayed at 70% but audience score whent down to 54% and now it's up to 63%
Which makes me think there's some fuckery going on there.
Solo seems caught between the two factions
those who see a female and scream sjws have gone too far and those who see anything progressive and go this is the best thing since sliced bread
and somewhere in the middle are real reviews
once again: "We want to be treated equally by being treated differently!"

@Grenade123 I mean star wars dose have some progressive bullshit in it, but the last two films were just lazy.
and that is where the real criticize lies. stuck in-between the to factions. No, its not suck because, or not solely because, it has progressive bs in. And no, it is not great just because it has progressive bs in it. The problem comes down to being lazy writing, and uninteresting story telling. Ultimately the cause for this is irrelevant, the solution is to stop being lazy.
One of my main gripes is that Finn has no purpose as a character. He does nothing. Accomplishes nothing.
He's not a hero because he's continually running away.
Even when he fights, he's somehow shown to be wrong for doing so.
The one time he could have been a hero the mechanic person stopped him.
I don't get what purpose they think he serves.
At this point he's just a foil and love interest for the mechanic asian that nobody remembers the name of.
Who just kinda showed up and was a mary sue.
