4K Digital Review of Deadpool & Wolverine

 

The third installment of the Deadpool franchise and the 14th X-Men film is the perfect send off to the 20th Century X-Men movies and hopefully a huge new beginning in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. 

Wade Wilson (Ryan Reynolds) has said goodbye to his alter ego Deadpool until he is taken from his timeline by the TVA. The TVA's Mr. Paradox (Matthew Macfadyen) offers Wade a future on Earth 616. Wade accepts but then realizes that his timeline is deteriorating on Earth 100005, he sets off to save his universe by restoring its anchor being, Wolverine (Hugh Jackman). Paradox sends the two heroes to the Void, a wasteland of pruned people, places and things sent there by the TVA. 

Video:

The 4K transfer is one of the best I have ever seen! Everything is crisp and clear and colors pop off the screen. Details such as the textures of the costumes really shine here. The level of detail is extraordinary and the 4K visuals are a triumph! 

Audio:

Equally impressive is the audio quality. It felt as good as the theater experience. Dialogue is normalized through the center channel and you do not need to adjust the volume. Action sequences make great use of the surround channels. The audio is perfectly mixed for big action pieces and quieter moments. You feel immersed into the movie. 

Bonus Features:

• Finding Madonna: Making the Oner – Director Shawn Levy and Ryan Reynolds break down a historic scene in the film: the “Oner,” which highlights the first fight in which Deadpool and Wolverine finally unite.
• Practical Approach: Celebrating the Art of Ray Chan – A tribute to longtime Marvel Studios collaborator Ray Chan, who sadly passed away in 2024 – the cast and crew recall anecdotes and echo the resounding positive effects of filming on the set he helped design, full of intricate details and Easter eggs.
• Loose Ends: The Legacy Heroes – Ryan Reynolds, Shawn Levy, and the cast and crew go through some of the mind-blowing cameos and the characters who finally get their deserved endings. They cover the intensive choreographed sequences, updated costumes, and assembling the iconic team.
• Wolverine – Hugh Jackman describes the return to his iconic role as Wolverine. Cast and crew discuss how he picks up his yellow and blue suit for the first time, brings variety to the role, and continues his legacy from previous films.
• Filmmaker Commentary – Listen to audio commentary by director Shawn Levy and actor Ryan Reynolds.
• Gag Reel – Watch some hilarious outtakes on set with the cast and crew of Deadpool & Wolverine
• Deleted Scenes
  • Elevator Ride – Paradox explains the sacred timeline to Deadpool as they walk around the TVA.
  • Do Nothing – B-15 instructs Paradox to stay out of trouble, rejecting his efforts to take action.
  • Daddy’s In Love – B-15 and Peter strike up a romance. Peter announces he is in love to his friends, Headpool and Kidpool.
• “Fun Sack”
  • Dr. Deadpool – Dr. Deadpool, Ph.D. very kindly informs us of the risks of testicular cancer and tries to convince Hugh Jackman to do a live checkup.
  • Product Review – Deadpool shows off some toys and trinkets from the franchise, including one top-secret item that may or may not be a spoiler.
  • Wade is Back – Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman promote a movie...but Ryan misleads Hugh on just exactly which movie they are there for.
