Deadpool attempts to stop a mugging
jerkitoff2 October 2022
This is a live action Deadpool short and it's really entertaining. It also has quite a few references worth mentioning. When Deadpool walks by a movie theater it reads "Logan" which is obviously a reference to the film "Logan" which was released the same day as this short. Also when Deadpool spots the mugging he desperately tries to quickly change into his Deadpool uniform by going inside of a phone booth and changing into his superhero attire. This is obviously a reference to Superman who would famously change into his super suit via phone booth. At last Deadpool was too late to stop the mugging and decides to just eat the victim's yogurt instead. So overall funny short with a funny conclusion.

Deadpool: No Good Deed is a fun short film about the adventures of the popular anti-hero character Deadpool. The movie tells a funny and action-packed story in which Deadpool finds himself fighting against criminals.

The movie uses Deadpool's characteristic sarcasm and humor and makes the audience laugh a lot. Also, the action scenes are quite impressive and fast-paced. There are many scenes that showcase Deadpool's abilities and heroic spirit.

It should especially be mentioned that Ryan Reynolds portrays the character of Deadpool perfectly. He truly captures the character's sense of humor and quirks. Reynolds' energetic acting makes the movie much more enjoyable.

However, the film seems to have more of a promotional purpose rather than telling a specific story. Because it is a short film, it is limited in character development and depth. Therefore, it would have been more satisfying if we watched it over a longer period of time.

Overall, Deadpool: No Good Deed is a fun and action-packed short film. It will definitely be an enjoyable experience for Deadpool fans. However, it should be noted that the film has shortcomings in terms of storytelling and character development.

So you've seen the other review
Seller786217 March 2017
First off, I gave it a 10 specifically to upset Thomas-the-German-Snowflake. Second, this little effort was funny. Was it genius? No. But not everything needs to be brilliant to be funny. Second of all, it is a nice reminder why we all like the first movie and are jacked to see the follow-up effort.

Ryan Reynolds owns this character and the edginess combined with the animal house sense of humour (that's right I added a "u", deal with it) makes this video a welcome addition to the Marvel Universe.

Oh, and Stan Lee's cameo is gonna make you chuckle.

Deadpool just doing Deadpool things
seth-goodwin231 June 2017
When I went to go see Logan on opening night, this was shown before the movie started. I thought it was a part of Logan, because of the music and the way it was shot. It was a pleasant surprise to see it was actually Wade Wilson.

It was really funny, as Deadpool was being the smirky anti-hero he usually is. Ryan Reynolds brought a new, funny, fourth-wall breaking, and bad-mouthed character to screen in 2016 with the Deadpool movie. This short brought back the feeling people had when seeing Deadpool for the first time a year earlier. Reynolds truly is the only actor that can play Deadpool with such ease and enthusiasm. It was also nice to have a good laugh before watching the serious and emotional Logan.

I cannot wait to see Deadpool 2 in 2018 and the upcoming X-Force that Reynolds is confirmed to be a part of (not only as Deadpool, but as a producer/writer too).

A fun teaser / short film
bob the moo29 March 2017
Even though it was not as good as everyone expected, I still liked the Deadpool movie – enjoyed the marketing, enjoyed the perception of how it was made, and liked that it was successful. This short film captures a lot of that, and it seems nicely disrespectful of a world that is worth billions and filled with "event" movies. Of course there is an irony that Deadpool is also an event film that needs to make money, and that this short film / teaser / trailer pulled in millions of views pretty quickly, however it still manages to have that rebellious tone which works with the character.

The 'plot' here is that Deadpool hears a man in trouble (who may or may not be Spiderman's Uncle Ben) and rushes into a phone booth to change into his costume. It is a simple film that needs you to enjoy the humor of the main film and character. It is consistently amusing and well made; with plenty of 4th walls broken (references to Deadpool's costumer, Logan playing in the cinema in the background, Stan Lee playing Stan Lee, etc). The dialogue fits this style too and I enjoyed it for its brief silly nature, although at the same time if you did not enjoy the film then this will do nothing new to win you over.

No nominations for Best Live-Action Short from ANYONE????
lotekguy-12 August 2022
Loved the movies. Just stumbled across this gem years later. The script is terrific, as is the score. Great spoof of the historic genre; and a Stan Lee cameo is even more of a treat since his departure from our slice of the Multiverse.

But the capper is the wise-ass high school book report scroll of Old Man and the Sea. A wonderful non sequitur. That bumped my 8 to a 10.

Did not make me curious sadly

Warning: Spoilers
"Deadpool: No Good Deed" is a live action short film that got released less than two weeks ago, namely in early March 2017. Since then, it racked up millions and millions of views on Youtube, which shows how popular Ryan Reynolds' "Deadpool" is right now. And the actor also plays the character in here. Namely he sees a crime, enters a phone booth to put on his superhero costume and then gets out ready for action. But it's all over because he took so long. So yeah, the approach here clearly shows how comedy is a big factor in "Deadpool", more than usual. It reminded me a bit of a Kickass thingey. Deadpool of course needs to step things up to be competition to Spider Man, who changes dresses within seconds. But honestly, even at under five minutes, the entire thing is like an overlong joke. The punch line isn't bad, but it just stops being funny at some point and honestly, the final shot is a bit on the offensive/pathetic side. I have not yet seen Deadpool from last year, even if I know the character pretty well as does almost everybody these days. However, this little film here did not get me curious at all about this first film or the second one that is bound to be released in 2018. Thumbs down. Only worth watching for huge Deadpool and Stan Lee fans

Is this suppose to be funny?
ThunderKing617 July 2021
It had no Big Bang Theory laugh track, so I'm not sure when I should have laughed.

Weak movies and annoying characters should not be allowed this much exposure, then to produce more of it. This short was pure hash.

At least The Big Bang Theory had the courtesy to put a laugh track.

Last Word: Deadhash. I like Deadpool but his live action hash is, well it's hash.
