Wade Wilson, or Deadpool, was a foul-mouthed mercenary who obliterated his enemies and the fourth wall with the same gonzo energy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Again and again, Deadpool turned to the camera and mocked the clichés of the superhero movie with such deadpan wit, you \u003cem>almost\u003c/em> forgot you were watching a superhero movie. And Ryan Reynolds, Hollywood’s snarkiest leading man, might have been engineered in a lab to play this vulgar vigilante. I liked the movie well enough, though one was plenty; by the time \u003cem>Deadpool 2\u003c/em> rolled around in 2018, all that self-aware humor had started to seem awfully self-satisfied.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postid='arts_13961301']Now we have a third movie, \u003cem>Deadpool & Wolverine, \u003c/em>which came about through some recent movie-industry machinations. When \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/03/20/705009029/disney-officially-owns-21st-century-fox\">Disney bought Fox\u003c/a> a few years ago, Deadpool, along with other mutant characters from the \u003cem>X-Men\u003c/em> series, officially joined the franchise juggernaut known as the Marvel Cinematic Universe.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That puts the new movie in an almost interesting bind. It tries to poke fun at its tortured corporate parentage; one of the first things Deadpool says is “Marvel’s so stupid.” But now the movie also has to fit into the narrative parameters of the MCU. It tries to have it both ways: brand extension disguised as a satire of brand extension.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s also an odd-couple comedy, pairing Deadpool with the most famous of the X-Men: Logan, or Wolverine, the mutant with the unbreakable bones and the retractable metal claws, played as ever by a bulked-up \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2008/11/26/97535550/hugh-jackman-boy-from-oz-is-australia-hero\">Hugh Jackman\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Idh8n5XuYIA\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The combo makes sense, and not just because both characters are Canadian. In earlier movies, Deadpool often made Wolverine the off-screen butt of his jokes. Both Deadpool and Wolverine are essentially immortal, their bodies capable of self-regenerating after being wounded. Both are tormented by past failures and are trying to redeem themselves. Onscreen, the two have a good, thorny chemistry, with Jackman’s brooding silences contrasting nicely with Reynolds’ mile-a-minute delivery.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I could tell you more about the story, but only at the risk of incurring the wrath of studio publicists who have asked critics not to discuss the plot or the movie’s many, many cameos. Let’s just say that the director Shawn Levy and his army of screenwriters bring the two leads together through various rifts in the multiverse. Yes, the multiverse, that ever-elastic comic-book conceit, with numerous Deadpools and Wolverines from various alternate realities popping up along the way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postid='arts_13961083']I suppose it’s safe to mention that Matthew Macfadyen, lately of \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13930048/succession-creator-on-finale-jesse-armstrong-shiv-tom-sarah-snook-kieran-culkin\">\u003cem>Succession\u003c/em>\u003c/a>, plays some kind of sinister multiverse bureaucrat, while Emma Corrin, of \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13939414/the-crown-ends-as-pensive-meditation-on-the-most-private-public-family-on-earth\">\u003cem>The Crown\u003c/em>\u003c/a>, plays a nasty villain in exile. It’s all thin, derivative stuff, and the script’s various wink-wink nods to other shows and movies, from \u003cem>Back to the Future\u003c/em> to \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13958145/furiosa-review-mad-max-saga-george-miller-anya-taylor-joy\">\u003cem>Furiosa\u003c/em>\u003c/a> to \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13936820/great-british-baking-show-bake-off-collection-11-noel-paul-prue-alison\">\u003cem>The Great British Bake Off,\u003c/em>\u003c/a> don’t make it feel much fresher. And Levy, who previously directed Reynolds in the sci-fi comedies \u003cem>Free Guy \u003c/em>and \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13910412/why-the-adam-project-is-a-different-kind-of-ryan-reynolds-project\">\u003cem>The Adam Project\u003c/em>\u003c/a>, doesn’t have much feel for the splattery violence that is a staple of the \u003cem>Deadpool\u003c/em> movies. There’s more tedium than excitement in the characters’ bone-crunching, crotch-stabbing killing sprees, complete with corn-syrupy geysers of blood.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For all its carnage, its strenuous meta-humor and an R-rated sensibility that tests the generally PG-13 confines of the MCU, \u003cem>Deadpool & Wolverine\u003c/em> does strive for sincerity at times. Some of its cameos and plot turns are clearly designed to pay tribute to Fox’s \u003cem>X-Men \u003c/em>films from the early 2000s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a longtime \u003cem>X-Men\u003c/em> fan myself, I’m not entirely immune to the charms of this approach; there’s one casting choice, in particular, that made me smile, almost in spite of myself. It’s not enough to make the movie feel like less of a self-cannibalizing slog, though I suspect that many in the audience, who live for this kind of glib fan service, won’t mind.

RTA operates as a lifeline for these men — a way, as one of them puts it, for them to “become human again” within the confines of a place deliberately structured to strip them of their humanity. The film takes time to clearly communicate this often; it’s especially effectively rendered during an exercise where volunteer director Brent prompts each performer to imagine a favorite memory or place, and then describe it aloud.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Kwedar and Bentley are careful to not give in to mawkish trappings, and just when it seems as though the movie might be veering close to “\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j64SctPKmqk\">O Captain, my Captain!\u003c/a>” territory, it reins itself back in. It helps that \u003cem>Sing Sing \u003c/em>is unafraid to acknowledge art’s limitations as a vessel for those who are incarcerated, even as it celebrates the joys art can produce — not everyone in the group is able to access their happy place during that exercise. It’s also buoyed by the collective strength of the performances which make each character, even those we learn just a few details about, distinctive and memorable. Domingo and Maclin in particular share a special kinetic energy that oscillates as any friendship can over time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postid='arts_13956038']For decades a movement opposed to the country’s mass incarceration epidemic has been gaining momentum, and \u003cem>Sing Sing \u003c/em>comes at an interesting time. In 2024, two of the summer’s biggest movies — \u003cem>Bad Boys: Ride or Die \u003c/em>and \u003cem>Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F —\u003c/em> continue the grand Hollywood tradition of dramatizing the pursuit and capture of “bad guys” by law enforcement. Dick Wolf’s \u003cem>Law & Order \u003c/em>franchise is still going strong, too. Kwedar’s film, on the other hand, isn’t especially interested in designating “bad” or “good” guys, and the offenses the characters have been accused and convicted of aren’t all that important to the story. The main exception is Divine G, seeking clemency for a wrongful murder conviction based on evidence that clearly exonerates him — and perhaps some audiences will find this to be a little too convenient as a narrative conceit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Divine G’s story is true-to-life.

RTA operates as a lifeline for these men — a way, as one of them puts it, for them to “become human again” within the confines of a place deliberately structured to strip them of their humanity. The film takes time to clearly communicate this often; it’s especially effectively rendered during an exercise where volunteer director Brent prompts each performer to imagine a favorite memory or place, and then describe it aloud.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Kwedar and Bentley are careful to not give in to mawkish trappings, and just when it seems as though the movie might be veering close to “\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j64SctPKmqk\">O Captain, my Captain!\u003c/a>” territory, it reins itself back in. It helps that \u003cem>Sing Sing \u003c/em>is unafraid to acknowledge art’s limitations as a vessel for those who are incarcerated, even as it celebrates the joys art can produce — not everyone in the group is able to access their happy place during that exercise. It’s also buoyed by the collective strength of the performances which make each character, even those we learn just a few details about, distinctive and memorable.

All the women’s stories serve the novel’s greater plot, which opens with a murder in the house on Thanksgiving Day in 1954.
