Our CE review of the film read, "Deadpool & Wolverine caters to a very specific set of fans who enjoy the Marvel films in a very specific way. They derive joy from figuring out the edges of the cinematic universe and find delight in knowing that it is expanding while also exuding warm nostalgia by staying connected to familiar characters. In that regard, Deadpool & Wolverine is one of the biggest fanservice films to come out of the MCU."
