What do the Deadpool & Wolverine negative reviews say?
Via the “Top Critics” on Rotten Tomatoes, here is a selectin of the negative “rotten” reviews:
To paraphrase TS Eliot, these fragments has Marvel shored against its ruins, though the crumbling continues regardless. – Daily Telegraph
There is a difference between tossing out references and making a movie that is genuinely funny, thrilling, energetic and innovative. At nearly every turn, Deadpool & Wolverine aspires to work in direct opposition to such goals. – Globe and Mail
I’d rather just watch a movie than be pandered to by one. – Newsday
For the core audience, the gags will be reward enough, even if the rest of us might squirm as the sloppily staged action grows repetitive, the plotting haphazard and the humor so self-aware the movie threatens to disappear up its own ass. – Hollywood Reporter
Deadpool & Wolverine is as much fun as you can conceivably have at a corporate merger meeting. – Independent UK
The results are a mixed bag of occasionally funny one-liners and characters you forgot you probably complained about online in the 2000s. – Kristomania
It is a carnival of in-jokes, self-references, and reality breaks with no higher purpose than to congratulate its audience for keeping up. It has no stakes, no drama, and only the most cynical applications of creativity. – Entertainment Weekly
A shameless piece of self-congratulation, fueled by self-cannibalism, as the studio which built its identity on superhero crossovers finally abandons the pretense of trying to justify them dramatically. – The Wrap
Despite being right in the demographic crosshairs for its incessant geek culture references, I found myself as exhausted with this film as I have been with any other installment in the lackluster Multiverse Saga. – Observer
The first Marvel Cinematic Universe flick to get an R certificate in the US, is, despite that supposed confirmation of mature content, the most relentlessly juvenile entry in a sequence that has rarely been confused with Ingmar Bergman’s Faith trilogy. – Irish Times
Neither the quips nor the knowingly over-the-top fight scenes are as lethal as in the earlier pictures, and the film’s wisecracking tone is undercut by the baggage of having to adhere to the MCU’s ungainly overarching narrative. – Screen International
