15 Best Movie Fight Scenes Of 2016

Deadpool is more a comedy than a straight-ahead action flick, since that’s the main strength of the character and the fact the budget was modest. This isn’t to say it doesn’t have spiffy setpieces, with the showdown between Deadpool and Francis being immensely satisfying.

The moment that best combines the action and comedy is the “twelve bullets” scene, where poor Deadpool finds himself with only a dozen bullets to take on a wave of goons. It’s hilarious and exciting at the same time, thanks to the choreography and Reynolds relentless energy and comic timing,

It’s not easy to combine humour with action, but this scene does it expertly, and it’s easy to see why audiences were so hungry for a comic book movie with a twist.
