Anyone else worried about this movie? Trust me, im super excited for it. Im just concerned about the tone of the movie. Ive heard its going to be a combination of rush hour and john wick. Totally different styles and tones. Im concerned how it will all blend together. Fox seems to be allowing creative freedom and i hope it doesnt back fire on this movie. The first was excellent and people are

Also with the rumors of black cassidy, juggernaught, cable, domino, negasonic, colossus, etc etc all being in the movie, im fearful it will pull from the deadpool character and become more like origins (which i actually really like but have only seen once when it first came out without any comic knowledge so i refuse to watch again to spoil it because i know ill hate it). It will also be trying to set up for x force. How will fourth wall breaks work with a larger ensemble? I just think this movie is trying to do too much. I have hope and am overall optimistic, just a few concerns.

So after all the worrying, it was for nothing. I greatly enjoyed the film and they did a good job balancing everyone. I shouldn't have doubted.

the running length makes me worried. I think I read it would be around 1 hour and 40 minutes. For a film that's introducing several new characters it sounds like they will not have any development at all. This will probably be a mildly entertaining sequel about the same as the Kingsman sequel. I don't think critics will love it.

Runtime is 119 minutes (1:59) so it's not short by any means. I didn't really have any strong feelings about the first movie, other than wondering why the bad guy was even considered a threat. I hope those that want to see it enjoy it, but my guess is that most reviewers will find the movie "overstuffed."

I do hate how the only "reviews" coming out so far are tweets from entertainment bloggers, who aren't what I'd ever call professional critics who practice stifling their inner fanboy to focus on whether or not a movie works as an actual narrative. When the embargo lifts in a few days we'll see what people are really saying.

"Professional critics" are the worst people to listen to. They seem to be from another planet and don't enjoy the same things that normal people do.
