“This fella puts on a show. I had no idea he could sing and dance,” the actor wrote on his Instagram story over a selfie of him and Jackman. “I knew he could stab and grunt. The show is an immersive retrospective and jamboree of feeling, giggles and joy. Not one dry eye in the house.”

Reynolds attended the show with Deadpool & Wolverine director Shawn Levy.

“Sitting with [Shawn Levy] and watching our pal tear a hole thru @RadioCityMusicHall is a core memory,” Reynolds continued. “I give it a 4.9 stars out of 5 because I was told there’d be a car chase.”
