Just seven days are left until Ryan Reynold's foul-mouthed anti-hero sequel Deadpool 2 glides into the theaters. With fan speculations and anticipations at an all-time high, thankfully, some early reactions to the 20th Century Fox film have already made their way to the Internet. 

And the verdict, as it stands, is unanimous! More than anything, those lucky few fans and members of the press who got to witness the action on Thursday (just hours before the world premiere of Solo in Los Angeles) couldn't stop raving about the second installment in the saga that kicked off back in 2016. 

While avoiding the spoilers as closely as possible, online critics have taken to Twitter to share their first reactions, and as it turns out, the best part about the thriller begins once the credits roll.


Apart from the "awesome" post-credit scenes, which seems to have taken even the Deadpool novices by surprise, movie-goers were also all praises about the raunchy wisecracks (something that we have now come to associate with the mutant hero), funny jabs about Canada, and the newly-introduced mutant, Cyborg.

"Happy to report 'Deadpool 2' is a lot of fun and had me laughing beginning to end. Stuff after the credits is *awesome*. All the people added to the film were perfectly cast. Avoid spoilers. Always makes it a better experience," shared a critic, echoing the general mix of emotions. 

A second piped in, adding, "I didn't like the first Deadpool. DEADPOOL 2 beat me into submission until I was actually enjoying myself. Also it features my now favorite post credit scene."

"Deadpool 2 was action packed, emotional and as hilarious as expected! The film is full of brilliant cameos and moments! Well done Mr Pool #Deadpool2," chimed in someone else. 


The rave reviews that the Fox thriller garnered from the first screening itself is sure to up the hype surrounding the movie, that arrives in theaters on May 18.

Meanwhile, Deadpool 2 star Reynolds has been busy strenuously spreading the word about the upcoming blockbuster via the multiple social media networks. And his latest gem, featuring none other than footballer David Beckham, is sure to leave fans in splits.
