NOC Review: ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ — The ‘Wolverine’ Review

July 23, 2024July 24, 2024 Michael Lee

Nearly 15 years after Ryan Reynolds debuted as Deadpool in X-Men Origins: Wolverine, the Merc with the Mouth finds himself at a new point in his franchise and a low point in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Despite the few missteps Marvel Studios has had in the past trying to convince us that the currently disappointing Multiverse Saga is the next superhero epic, something like a Deadpool & Wolverine could be the hilariously merciful and bloody wake-up call that could reinvigorate fans’ enthusiasm for these films. And the highly anticipated sequel gets some help from Hugh Jackman reprising his role as Wolverine.

NOC Review: ‘Free Guy’ is The Biggest Surprise of the Summer

August 5, 2021August 5, 2021 Mike Manalo

There was a little bit of buzz surrounding the original Ryan Reynolds vehicle, Free Guy ever since it was supposed to debut back in July of 2020. It was, of course, sadly delayed two more times due to the pandemic, as all movies we’ve seen this year were. And in that timeframe, as anticipated, big blockbuster franchises from F9 to Black Widow, and A Quiet Place to The Suicide Squad, seemingly overshadowed the buzz for this one with star power and dedicated fanbases, hungry for explosive action. But after seeing it for myself, all I can say is we should have never let this one fall off our radars.
