The Merc with a Mouth lends his mouth to talking animals.
The Big Picture In 2016, Ryan Reynolds erupted into an A-list comedy-action star via the release of Deadpool. While the star had previously appeared in comedies such as Van Wilder, Waiting..., and the Sandra Bullock-led rom com The Proposal, his fourth wall breaking reprisal of the Merc with a Mouth — first embodied by the actor in 2009's X-Men: Origins - Wolverine — elevated his reputation within the genre, opening the door for funnier as well as bolder films.
His dog is a large mastiff named Bosco, who speaks to Jerry with that signature canine praise and affirmation. The cat, on the other hand, is an orange tabby named Mr. Whiskers, who taunts Jerry and fuels his anxieties. Reynolds provides the voices for both of the critters, putting on his best Sam Elliott-style Western drawl for Bosco and his most convincing Mike Myers-esque Scottish accent for Mr. Whiskers.
Come the film's climax, The Voices hardly feels like a comedy anymore, but rather a psychological thriller as well as an intense character study. Penned by Paranormal Activity 2 screenwriter Michael R. Perry, the movie endorses horror iconography throughout, with uncomfortable situations, eerie tension, and enough blood and guts to rival Deadpool as Reynold's most violent film.
Reynolds also shines as the animals. Bosco and Mr. Whiskers are very different from Reynold's other voice-over roles in Turbo, The Croods, and Detective Pikachu. The animals can be both foul-mouthed and provocative, and though they are meant to represent different parts of Jerry's subconscious, Reynolds does a stellar job giving the illusion of multiple, disquieting personalities.
