Deadpool (Tim Miller, 2016)

Gratuitously violent well beyond all Marvel adaptations so far, and with Ryan Reynolds wise-cracking all the way through at a rate rivalling Jim Carrey, this should not be an object of approval. The character isn't exactly that appealing either, a disfigured result of an experiment that saves his life and makes him unkillable a la Wolverine at the same time, a martial arts-laden mercenary anti-hero with a standard revenge mission. But Reynolds is clearly having so much fun doing his pet project, breaking the fourth wall continually to diss not only all of Marvel's other franchises but even his own career, that it's hard to not enjoy the ride.
