I'd say 1.5 or 1.75. I do like this film a good deal, but I just don't think it quite lives up to the ideas/complexity of either LEGO Movies. Superficially, I LOVE the look of it, but it's just a bit much of a departure from established Batman as it goes on and I didn't really need the extra IPs.
I love both deadpool films but it's no contest. First film has all 4 players that make it perfect. Reynolds, Tim miller and both writers Reese & Wernick. It's this lovely testament to the character I followed the production of for 7 years. If it was a one and done I'd still be very happy w/ it.
It subscribes to the old sequel school of just being the first movie again, but bigger! However, in the case of Deadpool 2, I just found the jokes to be funnier.
It's a hard choice, both are great in my book, but Deadpool 2 has Cable and Domino, it speaks volumes of Brolin's professionalism and acting chops that he did such a great job with a character he didn't seem to care that much about behind the scenes, Beetz was great too.
