Deadpool assembles a team of mutants (except, hilariously, a guy named Peter, who has no
obvious superpower) that he dubs X-Force for a daring, pratfall - filled and mostly ill - fated rescue before facing off against a rather
more ordinary but still plenty nasty
villain, the headmaster of Broadstone House, a reformatory for mutant children, who has the mien of a bureaucrat and the soul of a sadist.
As with most Scorsese knockoffs, there's a pretty
obvious and cynical critique buried in the mess of incident — something about the public desiring
villains more than heroes.
In addition to the earlier scene involving the fortress, the movie presents the heretofore
obvious villains of the series — Snow and the Capitol's blood - spectacle - hungry population — in far
more ambiguous light.
