Deadpool 2

Hilarious. Incredibly awesome. Deadpool 2 delivers. Ryan Reynolds is perfect. The story is well told. Breaking the fourth wall works well. The action scenes are very well done. Fun and surprising cameos that no one expected. Cable, as played by Josh Brolin, is really cool. The numerous easter eggs and references are fun to find. Certain jokes don't always work and a few take too long. The character of Peter, despite having a short appearance, is pure hilarity. Zazie Beetz makes someone with just luck based powers look believable and fun. Constantly, and cleverly, subverts the idea of the superhero movie villain, making it original. The chemistry between Brolin and Reynolds is really good, but at times not always strong. Over all: 98%

Star Wars: Rogue One Adaptation #1

Getting it as a bonus comic for the 2018 Free Comic Book Day, Star Wars: Rogue One Adaptation #1 is my first Star Wars comic and my first comic book adaptation of a film, in this case Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. This issue starts out with Jyn Erso witnessing the Empire kill her mother and take her father to work on the Death Star and ends with her recruitment to the Rebels and sent to find Saw Gerrera. While the comic pretty much shows what the film has, the issue also has some little extra scenes that weren't shown in the final film such as Jyn's father handing the plans of the Death Star to the pilot who defected and various flashbacks to Jyn's past with Saw. The artwork is descent and even if it does tell the same story as the film with some extra scenes, there's nothing that very remarkable about it, so it's an okay comic. Over all: 80%
