Deadpool & Wolverine divides audiences with controversial scenes

It's no coincidence that "Deadpool & Wolverine" received an R rating in the United States (persons under 17 can view the film only under the supervision of an adult guardian). The humor, jokes, and language in it are often vulgar and, above all, politically incorrect, which is almost unheard of in today's film productions. Therefore, criticism was bound to be directed at it.

"We went to see Deadpool and walked out after half an hour. It's disgusting. It's an anti-God film. It insults our creator. You shouldn't watch it or spend your money on it. This film is worth nothing," such opinions abound on social media.

"Deadpool & Wolverine" has outraged some Catholics, who particularly point to two scenes. In the first, the character's words are criticized, as he states that he is a "messiah" or even "Marvel's Jesus." In this case, it seems that it is rather self-ironic, as Wade Wilson mocks the poor financial results of several previous Marvel productions in this way.

In another scene, Wolverine, the character played by Hugh Jackman, is nailed to—according to some viewers—a cross. Opinions online suggest this part of the film "mocks Jesus's sacrifice." This argument also seems off the mark, as the "controversial" scene was taken from an 80s comic book, and Wolverine was not nailed to a cross in it, but a structure in the shape of an "X"—a symbol of Marvel superheroes.

Meanwhile, in cinemas, "Deadpool & Wolverine" is making money at a rapid pace and will likely exceed one billion dollars in revenue worldwide.
