‘Deadpool 2’ Early Buzz: Better Than the First Film in Every Way
The first Deadpool took the superhero world by storm, breaking down fourth walls and poking fun at the genre that has dominated Hollywood for the past 15 years. But was that just lightning in a bottle?
Turns out no, according to the Deadpool 2 early buzz. In fact, critics say that the 20th Century Fox sequel is even better than the first film, earning the movie’s bloody R-rating and wowing early audiences with a post-credits scene that some are saying is the best superhero post-credits scene ever.
See the early social media reactions to Deadpool 2 below.
Believe it or not, there are a fair few people who weren’t completely charmed by the first Deadpool. But the problems they found in the 2015 movie were nowhere to be seen in Deadpool 2, which critics called a vast improvement over the first film.
Alright, I guess the social media embargo is up? In that case: #Deadpool2 is better than the first film in literally every single way. I don't care for the first DEADPOOL at all, but this one hooked me. Script is threadbare, but it's so consistently funny that it didn't matter.

So, #DEADPOOL2 is the perfect sequel. Doubles down on everything that fans love about the original, and fixes some of that film's issues. Huge, huge laughs that play the audience like a fiddle. @VancityReynolds destroys as Wade. Great action, fantastic comic nods. A killer ride! pic.twitter.com/KaM8gUT2Jf

I liked DEADPOOL 2 more than the first one (which I wasn’t a huge fan of). Slow to start but all the stuff with X-Force and Cable (and Peter!) works surprisingly well.

I didn't like the first Deadpool. DEADPOOL 2 beat me into submission until I was actually enjoying myself. Also it features my now favorite post credit scene.

Happy to report 'Deadpool 2' is a lot of fun and had me laughing beginning to end. Stuff after the credits is *awesome*. All the people added to the film were perfectly cast. Avoid spoilers. Always makes it a better experience. pic.twitter.com/4Q3Kr1ARPh

#Deadpool2 is no doubt the most violent major release since Kill Bill Volume 1. It’s also funnier than the first and has me genuinely excited for a sequel. Oh and it features a ton of Canada jokes, so of course I loved it.

#DEADPOOL2 Emoji Pre-Review: ???????????????????

Although most critics tried to keep a tight lid on spoilers, many couldn’t help but mention the post-credits scene. Rarely has a post-credits scene been raved about as much — or even more — than the film itself, but apparently Deadpool 2 has a post-credits scene for the ages.
Just saw #Deadpool2. Safe to say it features the best post credits scene EVER. I’m still recovering.

#Deadpool2 is a feast for pop culture geeks who are sick of superhero movie cliches — with the most satisfying post-credits scene in recent memory.

The post-credits scene at the end of Deadpool 2 is so great.
— Ben Dreyfuss (@bendreyfuss) May 10, 2018
#Deadpool2: I’ll say this, it earns the hell out of that R rating. And the cameos. And the post-credit scenes.

However, there were a few who weren’t so keen on it. The sequel has apparently doubled down on the tongue-in-cheek meta humor and the juvenile jokes catered toward teenagers.
#Deadpool2: Finally! A movie for teenage boys!
Look for my review on @Collider on Monday.

DEADPOOL 2: this time he knows he’s in a cinematic universe!!!

But it inevitably drew some comparisons to another recent Marvel superhero movie starring Josh Brolin — in a good way.
Deadpool 2 is better than Infinity War?

Them’s fighting words.
