For all of it's R-rated fanfare, Deadpool was pretty much any action movie from a couple decades ago. It was a bit more raunchy than Kill Bill (either volume), and just as violent. What makes it even less watchable is that the one woman character was so stereotypical.
I don't even remember her name.
But she started out a badass, protecting herself at a rough bar. But she immediately refers to herself as "merchandise," objectifying herself. And the love story that we see? Is them having sex. She was a badass for, like, a minute, and then just a willing sex toy. The movie is just all male fantasy all the time.
And during the sex montage? Why is International Women's Day celebrated by painful anal intercourse? What are you saying about women if you celebrate us that way?!
When we finally get back to her, she's a dancer or waitress or something in a strip club. WTF was she doing in a mercenary bar, and protecting herself well, if she's merely a waitress?! It all makes no sense.
