Our take
Deadpool & Wolverine is a loud superhero comedy: claws, guns, and constant f-word language. Expect crude sex talk, a cocaine gag, and suicide jokes played for laughs. Comic, still a pile of corpses. Older teens and adults
Story (may spoil tone)
A listless Wade Wilson toils away in civilian life with his days as the morally flexible mercenary, Deadpool, behind him. But when his homeworld faces an existential threat, Wade must reluctantly suit-up again with an even more reluctant Wolverine.

Talk after watching
- The jokes sit on top of a lot of killing. Did that make it easier or harder to watch?
- Deadpool talks to the camera. Did that change how the violence landed?
