The makers of the upcoming superhero movie Deadpool 2 had held special early previews for the press and going by the early reactions, it looks like they have another winner in hand. Deadpool 2 is the sequel to the 2016 film, that itself was a huge hit with the audiences loving the meta humour and the crazy action sequences. Ryan Reynolds plays Deadpool, the merc with a mouth who loves to break the fourth wall and has super-regenerative powers.
The sequel is directed by David Leitch, and buoyed by the success of the first movie, has got a bigger cast and a budget. Going by the early reactions and reviews, Leitch and Reynolds have made full use of the added advantages to make Deadpool 2 bigger, bloodier, raunchier, funnier and more awesome! Here are some of the early reactions -
Full of brilliant cameos and moments!

Endlessly funny!
My brain is spinning. #Deadpool2 is 100% the movie that I was hoping for - and I say that as a Deadpool superfan. It's endlessly funny, has some surprising depth, and the action is remarkable. Cable and Domino are perfect, and the big surprises are amazing. Couldn't be happier. pic.twitter.com/ohYyz7flwu
