The Film ‘89 Podcast Episode 120 – Deadpool & Wolverine (2024).

On Episode 120 of The Film ‘89 Podcast we’re doing something we haven’t done for a long time – reviewing a new comic book movie – Disney/Marvel Studios’ latest cinematic outing, and their first ever R-rated superhero film, Deadpool & Wolverine, starring Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman. As well as giving their in-depth and spoiler-filled review and analysis of the new film, Neil and Skye give their thoughts on the current state of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the superhero genre in general after several years of output that have been far from great in terms of critical and commercial success. And they discuss whether Deadpool & Wolverine’s box office success is a sign of a turnaround for the MCU, or just a brief anomaly, brought about by a very unique set of circumstances that allowed Ryan Reynolds and director Shawn Levy an opportunity to make a third Deadpool film that openly mocks a sub-genre of film that’s lost its way.
