When it comes to comic book movies we have had great choices for our heroes but this year Ryan Reynolds give the best and most perfectly cast comic book hero performance we have ever seen, he nails the comedy, the action and isn’t afraid to take the piss out of himself either. This performance has made Reynolds an A-Lister once again and is also the first superhero to be nominated for a Golden Globe.
