The most logical reason he didn’t open the package was that it kept him going mentally. He decided that it would be his mission and motivation to get off the island and deliver the package.
There was no music until the scene where he left the island. It's a testament to his acting that he can carry the movie with no music until then. It's all dialog between him and Wilson but he still manages to swing your emotions and keep you engaged through all of it.
You two are quickly becoming my new favorite couple. I have some really good couple movie reactors, but when you both shed tears when he left the island it actually gave me goosebumps. Please more movie/video content. You are doing great! Subscribed!!!
I bet you would never think that unbuckling his seat belt in the plane to retrieve the watch after the hazardous material exploded and the plane crashing in the ocean, saved his life!
Great scene when he looks back at the island after making it through the big wave and he knows he’s leaving it. He can’t help but look at it with some emotion knowing it did save his life and keep him alive for four years. Great actor and great reaction from both of you!
Yes, I instantly connected it to the moment when the airplane lifted off and I left Switzerland for good to come to the USA!! Happy and sad at the same time!! (:
The fellow here in this reaction is extraordinary ..your empathy and compassion is heartwarming.. and your connection to the psychological relationship with Wilson is so tender and real...being stranded on a island with you would be comforting and safe..Tom Hanks is one heck of an artist at his craft... see Forrest Gump starring this wonderful actor..
Only Tom hanks can make you cry for a volley ball. It’s just a volley ball. But that was his friend. Still brings a tear to so many people’s eye when Wilson is gone.
@@BossMovieReactions the volleyball made by the Wilson company, thus Wilson, Wilson is also the last name of Tom hanks wife..Rita Wilson… I’m going to guess he thought of her when talking to Wilson…
There was a Superbowl commercial where the Tom Hanks character delivers the final package and asks the person if he could tell him what was in it. The man opens it and says "Oh, not much, just a satellite phone, fire starting kit, flashlight, first aid kit, compass ..." 😅
Few moments in film come close to his loss of Wilson. I know a couple of people who think his relationship with Wilson was silly. But I feel sorry for those people. There’s so much they don’t understand, and it can’t be taught in school. Something as simple as a volleyball can be so much more than just a volleyball. Another great reaction, and your choice is excellent. 🎬
@@BossMovieReactions Very heartbreaking 💔 Chuck: Wilson, I'm sorry... I'm sorry, Wilson... I can't... Wilson... WILSOOOOOOONNNN!!! Wilson (we can imagine it) : Go on Chuck, your life goes on, I am just a ball, my time is done but my smile will be with you forever 🙂🏐 Chuck: 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 (so am I)
@@BossMovieReactions just a suggestion: I think you missed another movie starring Tom Hanks, The Green Mile...it is a very heartbreaking movie, will you make a video reaction on that?
When Tom Hanks was opening the boxes, I love how Mike was thinking of the items for practical purposes in the current situation and how Jessica was basically like “oh, I can ice skate with these!”. Lol
I've seen this movie a few times ad although I feel for him when he loses Wilson, I never teared up. Until now. Watching you 2 cry like you lost the best friend was contagious, I shed a tear in solidarity.
Sadly, the actress at the end (Lari White) died of cancer very young. And she was married to a "Chuck." She was a very talented and successful country singer.
This is why I subscribed. You guys really react with your audience and the movie. The moment he left the Island I dont know what brought me to tears, the movie, or you guys! Another truly awesome video keep up the stellar work.
'Keep Breathing' - that was the same expression used by Tom Hanks when he started in the move 'Sleepless in Seattle' - one of my Top-20 favorites (along with "You've Got Mail").
You did it again! I’ve watched several reactions to this one and some are good but you two always seem to catch the same exact emotional punchlines that I experience. Thank you and keep up the great work!
This should’ve taken home three Oscars that year. Picture. Director. And Actor. Incredibly powerful movie. I find the final moment, with him at the crossroads, is one of films most underrated moments.
Thanks' for the genuine reaction, Vulnerability and good editing, If you haven't seen Shawshank Redemption or The Green Mile we may as well get those tears rolling again
I love this channel. Please keep the reactions coming. So glad I found it. I'm not sure how you only have 3000 subs but I hope that it grows and you continue to prosper. Thank you for sharing with us.
Reaction junkie here. Thank you for your content. I'm confused why you don't have more subscribers because the editing on your videos is really high quality. It's smooth. Keep it up!
Thanks for pointing out the editing, made my day! We just started the channel in January, but I think we're growing quite nicely. Some other channels have hundreds of videos, we only have 29, but we're catching up! Thanks for watching and commenting! We appreciate it! (:
Watching from the UK, really enjoying the reactions! Ya'll gonna blowup! I love how hes like: "Yea, a pager is a nice gift" and you're like "A pager?!" 😆
I saw this movie when I was a child and remember packing a survival backpack after seeing this. I think it was filled with matches, scissors, a cup, granola bars and fruit snacks. Lol
Great reaction and great editing on your part. I enjoy thoughtful editing that makes me feel like I'm watch the movie all over again (all the key moments and call backs left in). Subscribed.
Thank you, Michael! And thanks for watching and commenting AND subscribing! The tough part about editing is getting around the censorship... It's really tough sometimes, so I appreciate your kind words! (:
6:55 - I never noticed the sailing certification. Gotta love when movies insert little plot details like that, that most people might not bother noticing or thinking about how it relates to the plot. Now it all makes sense how he would have the knowledge for sailing, and doing the in the cave to come up with a rough guess as to where the island was at in the ocean.
Yes, I totally agree! Little details like that make the plot more credible! The MOST interesting thing is that the red (EPIRB) "Emergency Position-Indicating Radio Beacon" was ripped off when Chuck inflated the lifeboat underwater. Remember that? That's a brilliant detail that one person told me. Thanks for watching! (:
@@BossMovieReactions Woah. I never knew that either. It's been a while since I watched the full movie, myself. Back when I didn't pay as much attention to detail as I do today. That's great writing.
1. It's a good thing he wasn't strapped in that plane. He would have died. 2. Can you imagine how much back pay this guy is going to get? He's not a rank and file worker either. He's much higher up the food change. 3. To make himself look like an average out of shape middle aged man Tom Hanks didn't exercise and allowed himself to grow pudgy. Production was then halted for a year so he could lose fifty pounds, work out and grow out his beard for his time spent on the deserted island. 4. Talk about using realistic tactics to survive. 5. Wilson is exactly what he needed to maintain sanity. 6. In a recent interview Hanks says that Chuck went back to Bettina Wings. Inside the opening scene package, among other things, were her divorce papers. 7. When he's talking to his friend and says, "I had power over nothing...." is what gets to me. 8.Tom Hanks is the GOAT of my lifetime. I'm 62 years old. FWIW Morse Code SOS= Dit dit dit, Dah dah dah, Dit dit dit
I thank my parents for showing me movies like this as a little kid...i feel like its what taught me to be good my whole life😂 to appreciate time and everything i have
@BossMovieReactions ain't that the truth!!!..btw If you think this movie is sad..wait until you watch The Green mile.. Idk if people have asked you to watch it,but when I tell you that movie always makes me cry..just like wilson drifting away🤣oh man..Tom Hanks and the whole cast killed it in that movie.. also another movie that people don't really react to is JOY RIDE(2001) with Paul walker...it's an awesome suspense movie...a hidden gem people don't talk about..if you get around to it I know you and your wife will enjoy it!..I just found you guys and I'm already hooked..wish you guys nothing but the best👌🙏
Just going to do a running set of notes I once read an interview conducted with a guy who was lost at sea in a life raft for (I think. It was years ago I read it) 2-3 months. Some relevant information here is that he said you never really know what you're doing. You just deal with the problems as they come (such as a shark accidentally biting your inflatable). The second was when you guys discussed whether you like coconuts. This guy said he is still repulsed by the compulsion he had to eat fish eyeballs when he caught them. His body took care of the part where he didn't like eating things That look Hanks gives leaving the island is acting at its best. He goes from excitement to fear as the gravity of leaving the safety of the island sets in. Its beautiful work I love how emotionally invested you guys get. I never used to until I had kids and something changed man. I think it's a great quality in a film maker to understand the emotion you can illicit in a person. It's cathartic I've never noticed the growth Chuck goes through when he consoles his friend over his wife. Like he's grown to appreciate "time" more The scene with his wife always gets to me. She has no blame and has been through so much as well. But it's so hard to see. A man stuck in time vs a woman who wasn't. Her guilt is so well acted. It's sad and it's beautiful all at the same time Kind of appropriate that the film ends at a crossroads
My daughter just told me about you guys and she was right! Loved your reactions and your authenticity. And may I say that you are a very gorgeous couple! Keep up the great work!
Second movie/comment in a row. Another really enjoyable reaction. Mike, your sentimental nature is so touching, especially in this harsh world we’re living in today. Never change; either of you. My best hopes and wishes that your channel grows rapidly 🙏❤️
Really nice reaction and you're a really nice couple too. I saw the movie years ago in the theater and the scene when the bow of the huge ship slowly appear and fill up the screen was breathtaking beyond belief...
48:35 I love that the whales help him to get to other humans. It's never said, but I feel they watched over him, assisted his direction, woke him up when needed, etc.
Oh, I'm happy to hear that! I felt similar when the plane lifted off and I left Switzerland for good to come to the USA. Happy, but also sad at the same time! Thanks for sharing! (:
This is the first video I’ve seen from you guys… seen this movie multiple times, but I cried with you 🥹 you guys are beautiful people, subscribed immediately 🤗🥰
Aw, Tracy, we're so happy you found us and that we can share our experience with you. Thanks for your kind words, thanks for watching, and thanks for subscribing! ((:
Well, I completely concur with the first comment you read out before the show began. I've watched many a reaction channel, and you two are definitely my favorites. Knowledgeable, down to earth, genuine, and I just love how the boss man is a pure empath, like my divergent self, and I just really enjoy how he feels each and every emotion. And wifey, well, you're adorable and funny, and just a joy to watch. Watch. I look forward to hanging out with you two virtually again soon. Cheers from Toronto.☮️🎬
Oh, what a fantastic comment, thank you so much for your kind words! Made our day!! Btw, I was born in Toronto but my Swiss parents went back to Switzerland when I was 1 year old, so Switzerland is what I know. I'm a triple-citizen now! (:
9:09 this man have a big heart. As for me, only strong man can show his emotions and tears. Respect for that! Sorry, I don't know the language. Hello from Ukraine, by the way. And... Man, you have a beautiful wife! Take care of each other!
Hey DDC77, thank you so much for saying all that! Your English is great! I'll pass on the compliment to my wife, Jessica. Thanks for watching and commenting! We appreciate it! Many greetings to Ukraine from Los Angeles! (:
I have just found your channel and I’m loving your reactions. I have seen this movie countless times and I still cry over Wilson. I always feel dehydrated afterwards.
Aw, thanks for your kind words... We'll be posting a trailer soon for our latest movie regarding sex trafficking... Thanks for watching and commenting! We appreciate it! (:
This has got to be the most greatest and realistic reaction I have ever seen of this film and I have watched ALOT of them! 24 years later since I first watched it in the theater (it was the year I graduated high school) and it STILL gets the tears flowing. The part that gets me the most (other than him leaving the island...and I have to say, your reactions to that was 100% ON POINT) is when he tells Stan on the plane how sorry he was that he wasn't there for him when his wife ultimately died of cancer. 😭😭😭 The contrast between the scene where he tells him about the doctor he knows and the scene on the plane shows how much Chuck had changed on the inside rather than just outside. One of the greatest films out there and STILL a massive favorite. I have happily subscribed and look forward to seeing more from you guys. 👍😁❤️ I will also share. Greetings from California, USA!
Hi Christina, thank you so much for watching, commenting, subscribing, and SHARING!! Also, thanks for your kind words, it made our day. You're so right about the scene that shows the contrast. Quite a few people have missed it. We're happy to have you on board. Greetings from North Hollywood, CA. ((:
Filmmaking is an art. And what type of art works without an emotional component. Something that bothers me about many so-called critics is that they criticize very precisely according to ideological, technical and craftsmanship points of view. But usually the emotional side falls by the wayside. But what makes a viewer cheer, hope, tremble and stay tuned until the end. The emotional. This film & so many other films have a perfect balance of story & emotions. And I had every tear on your face when I saw this film for the first time. Great reaction. RESPECT
I'm not sure what you're referring to, but I learned a new word, canonically. In mathematics, something is canonical if it is reduced to its most basic form. Thx! (:
@@BossMovieReactions Oh sorry, I was referring to the package at the end. We never find out in the movie what was in it, but Zemeckis later reviled that it was bottles of hot sauce.
Outstanding reaction from you guys. It's such an amazing story and so well made/told that it makes us cry over a volleyball amongst many other moments. Love your channel and the content you are producing. Thank you for the content you are giving to us.
First time viewer, found your channel today, absolutely great reaction, and content, thank you for reaching to this film, one of Tom hanks' best for sure, you guys definitely compliment each other, I am very glad u found you today!! Can't wait to see more
Quite a genuine emotional reaction, you two are real ones. Very refreshing in a sea over the top reactors and silliness where the movie itself is often lost or becomes a side dish. Love you guys and can't wait for your LOTR (extended) reactions, and pretty much anything else you do. Thank You!
I've been working with FedEx for 3.5 years and it's hands down the best damn career I've ever had. Fast paced, always new faces & they'll fly you to other cities as a contingency driver. I'll work here until I retire. Great reaction, y'all be safe 🤠
52:00 Glad to see you guys understood how much Wilson meant to him. Most people reacting to this movie don't grasp the psychological importance of Wilson.
It's hard for me to imagine that someone could not grasp the psychological importance of Wilson. It was absolutely devastating! Thanks for watching, Dr. Benji. (:
I read, that in the very first production version of this movie, that they had someone doing a voice for Wilson, that answered back to him when he was talking to the ball. The editors and Director decided by the 3rd cut that having that voice took away impact from the film, so they removed that sound track.
This was the first movie to ever teach me survival skills & critical thinking, ways to use the items in those boxes for something helpful eventually. I’m so thankful for this movie teaching me so much. Wilson broke my heart too.
By far! My favorite movie reactors on RUclips, and I've been watching them since they were a thing. You put so much time into the editing, and I appreciate it so much. You never take out a key moment in the film. That being said. I love your guys vulnerability. I get very emotional from movies too, so it's nice to be able to share that. It's not often men allow themselves to emote and actually let themselves go. Thank you and can't wait for the next movie!❤
Aw, what a wonderful comment. Thank you so much. Yes, editing is extremely time-consuming, but the worst part is that once I'm done editing I have to start "destroying" my work in order to pass the copyright censorship. It's really tough. Anyway, thanks for your kind words! (:
Chuck leaving the island behind, and the soundtrack kicking in, that is such manly way to shed tears \\edit: there is not a lot of movies which portray male emotionality. This is one.
@@BossMovieReactions PLEASE consider reacting to: 1. Us 2. The fourth kind 3. Requiem for a dream 4. Hereditary 5. Life as a house 6. Donnie Darko 7. I Have Life 8. Dis ek, Anna
Dis Ek Anna is a true story, from South Africa, about a girl who was abused but, only killed her abuser when he did it to someone else, not to her. I know it won't get many views and the views are needed but, as film makers, you know that the message is important, not who is delivering it.
@@BossMovieReactions this is the third i have seen so far this afternoon. I enjoy watching those who have a genuine appreciation for the story. Your husband's emotional vulnerability shows a genuine integrity of character and decency that is sorely lacking on this platform. As a writer and an artist, I have a soft spot in my heart for the introverted. It is the introverts (and the nerds) who built our civilization. Never change, brother and sister. Life is short: always choose honesty and your genuine sense of self. Noting else matters.
@@Malibu_Man Wow, what a wonderful comment. We have read every word. Thank you so much for all your kind words, it's very much appreciated! Bless you, brother! ((:

Same! Really love them both.
Same for me, they are so sensitives and focus on the movie without flourish. I love them, pretty good couple.
+ their gorgeous I'm watching just to watch them 😍😍😍 oh wait, that's kinda creepy 😅😅😅
I bet you didn't think that you would cry over a volleyball when you woke up that morning.
Haha... No, I didn't think I would! Btw, I once styled Hasselhoff's hair when I was doing "extra work" on Baywatch. (:
@@BossMovieReactions That's awesome! 😁

The saddest scene was where he lost "Wilson."

There was a Superbowl commercial where the Tom Hanks character delivers the final package and asks the person if he could tell him what was in it. The man opens it and says "Oh, not much, just a satellite phone, fire starting kit, flashlight, first aid kit, compass ..." 😅

Aw, thanks for saying that, we appreciate it! Love to you! (:
I think the wing package represents hope. His hope to survive and deliver that package someday.
Yes, that's how I saw it as well! Thx for watching! (:
The director started the story that it contained a solar-powered, water proof satellite phone
@@DaleKingProfile Haha, yeah, that would be brutal! 🤣
Yes but the 3rd draft (if I recall correctly) states it was a letter to her husband and a container of salsa. Lol @@DaleKingProfile
We all felt the Wilson pain. A damn volleyball!!! A testament to the acting and human psyche.
True! Very well done! (:

Tom Hanks lost 55 pounds while filming this movie for the 4 year time lapse. That's really incredible.
Yes, I read that somewhere... Incredible indeed! (:
55 pounds! Ok, that's dedication, and maybe a bit dangerous.
Big flaw in the story.You would think the rescue team would check out the island after the crash!! He saw the light of the rescue recovery operation.
55 pounds in 4 years is incredible?
There was a 6 month break between filming the 2 halves of the movie.
51:20 Wilson. 😢
nice reaction guys.
Thanks, Mr. Lebowski... That movie is on our list as well. Can't wait... (:

I thank my parents for showing me movies like this as a little kid...i feel like its what taught me to be good my whole life😂 to appreciate time and everything i have
That's awesome!! Some people would say that "time" is the most valuable thing we have... ((:
@BossMovieReactions ain't that the truth!!!..btw If you think this movie is sad..wait until you watch The Green mile.. Idk if people have asked you to watch it,but when I tell you that movie always makes me cry..just like wilson drifting away🤣oh man..Tom Hanks and the whole cast killed it in that movie.. also another movie that people don't really react to is JOY RIDE(2001) with Paul walker...it's an awesome suspense movie...a hidden gem people don't talk about..if you get around to it I know you and your wife will enjoy it!..I just found you guys and I'm already hooked..wish you guys nothing but the best👌🙏
@@_Rammstein Thanks, Rammstein, we're happy you found us! "Green Mile" is already on our list, but I added "Joy Ride." Thanks! (:
Just going to do a running set of notes
I once read an interview conducted with a guy who was lost at sea in a life raft for (I think. It was years ago I read it) 2-3 months. Some relevant information here is that he said you never really know what you're doing. You just deal with the problems as they come (such as a shark accidentally biting your inflatable). The second was when you guys discussed whether you like coconuts. This guy said he is still repulsed by the compulsion he had to eat fish eyeballs when he caught them. His body took care of the part where he didn't like eating things
That look Hanks gives leaving the island is acting at its best. He goes from excitement to fear as the gravity of leaving the safety of the island sets in. Its beautiful work
I love how emotionally invested you guys get. I never used to until I had kids and something changed man. I think it's a great quality in a film maker to understand the emotion you can illicit in a person. It's cathartic
I've never noticed the growth Chuck goes through when he consoles his friend over his wife. Like he's grown to appreciate "time" more
The scene with his wife always gets to me. She has no blame and has been through so much as well. But it's so hard to see. A man stuck in time vs a woman who wasn't. Her guilt is so well acted. It's sad and it's beautiful all at the same time
Kind of appropriate that the film ends at a crossroads
Yes, I agree with all that! Thanks for watching and commenting! We appreciate it! (:
My daughter just told me about you guys and she was right! Loved your reactions and your authenticity. And may I say that you are a very gorgeous couple! Keep up the great work!
Aw, thank you so much for your kind words, and thanks to your daughter for recommending us. ((:
Second movie/comment in a row. Another really enjoyable reaction. Mike, your sentimental nature is so touching, especially in this harsh world we’re living in today. Never change; either of you. My best hopes and wishes that your channel grows rapidly 🙏❤️
Aw, that is so nice of you to say, Marianna, Made my day! Thank you so much! (:
Really nice reaction and you're a really nice couple too.
I saw the movie years ago in the theater and the scene when the bow of the huge ship slowly appear and fill up the screen was breathtaking beyond belief...
YES, an amazing moment! Thanks for watching and thanks for your kind words! We appreciate it! (:
Great and genuine emotions in your review make it so special. Thank you both for your wonderful reaction
Thanks for saying that! Thanks for watching and commenting! We appreciate it! (:
48:35 I love that the whales help him to get to other humans. It's never said, but I feel they watched over him, assisted his direction, woke him up when needed, etc.
Yes, that's a nice thought... Kind of felt like that too. (:
Dude, I had the same reaction when he’s rowing away from the island the first time I saw this movie….still makes me emotional
Oh, I'm happy to hear that! I felt similar when the plane lifted off and I left Switzerland for good to come to the USA. Happy, but also sad at the same time! Thanks for sharing! (:
It was the best Cast Away reaction i have seen on RUclips! Thank you, you are great!
Fantastic! So happy to hear that! Thanks for watching and commenting! We appreciate it! (:
This is the first video I’ve seen from you guys… seen this movie multiple times, but I cried with you 🥹 you guys are beautiful people, subscribed immediately 🤗🥰
Aw, Tracy, we're so happy you found us and that we can share our experience with you. Thanks for your kind words, thanks for watching, and thanks for subscribing! ((:
Well, I completely concur with the first comment you read out before the show began. I've watched many a reaction channel, and you two are definitely my favorites. Knowledgeable, down to earth, genuine, and I just love how the boss man is a pure empath, like my divergent self, and I just really enjoy how he feels each and every emotion. And wifey, well, you're adorable and funny, and just a joy to watch. Watch. I look forward to hanging out with you two virtually again soon. Cheers from Toronto.☮️🎬
Oh, what a fantastic comment, thank you so much for your kind words! Made our day!! Btw, I was born in Toronto but my Swiss parents went back to Switzerland when I was 1 year old, so Switzerland is what I know. I'm a triple-citizen now! (:
@@BossMovieReactions Ha, cool. And it's my pleasure. See you on the next one! 🎬
9:09 this man have a big heart. As for me, only strong man can show his emotions and tears. Respect for that! Sorry, I don't know the language. Hello from Ukraine, by the way. And... Man, you have a beautiful wife! Take care of each other!
Hey DDC77, thank you so much for saying all that! Your English is great! I'll pass on the compliment to my wife, Jessica.
Thanks for watching and commenting! We appreciate it! Many greetings to Ukraine from Los Angeles! (:
Who would have guessed that we all would cry our eyes out over a volley ball? But if you didn't, then you must be made of stone.
Yeah, sooo true! Amazing movie-making! Thanks for watching! (:
I have just found your channel and I’m loving your reactions.
I have seen this movie countless times and I still cry over Wilson. I always feel dehydrated afterwards.
OMG, yeah, Wilson!!! ): We're happy you found us. Welcome! (:
Absolutely love the channel. I’d love to make a movie with you. Both of your emotional intelligence connects so well.
Aw, thanks for your kind words... We'll be posting a trailer soon for our latest movie regarding sex trafficking... Thanks for watching and commenting! We appreciate it! (:
Great reaction!!❤ Seen it sooo many times and cry every time😢😢
Thanks, Terri. Yeah, it would be hard not to shed a tear. Thanks for watching! We appreciate it! (:
This has got to be the most greatest and realistic reaction I have ever seen of this film and I have watched ALOT of them! 24 years later since I first watched it in the theater (it was the year I graduated high school) and it STILL gets the tears flowing. The part that gets me the most (other than him leaving the island...and I have to say, your reactions to that was 100% ON POINT) is when he tells Stan on the plane how sorry he was that he wasn't there for him when his wife ultimately died of cancer. 😭😭😭 The contrast between the scene where he tells him about the doctor he knows and the scene on the plane shows how much Chuck had changed on the inside rather than just outside. One of the greatest films out there and STILL a massive favorite. I have happily subscribed and look forward to seeing more from you guys. 👍😁❤️ I will also share. Greetings from California, USA!
Hi Christina, thank you so much for watching, commenting, subscribing, and SHARING!! Also, thanks for your kind words, it made our day. You're so right about the scene that shows the contrast. Quite a few people have missed it. We're happy to have you on board. Greetings from North Hollywood, CA. ((:
Wow guys omg that was such a raw and genuine reaction! Loved this, so happy I found your channel :D
And we're so happy you found us. Thanks for watching! We appreciate it! (:
Filmmaking is an art. And what type of art works without an emotional component. Something that bothers me about many so-called critics is that they criticize very precisely according to ideological, technical and craftsmanship points of view. But usually the emotional side falls by the wayside. But what makes a viewer cheer, hope, tremble and stay tuned until the end. The emotional. This film & so many other films have a perfect balance of story & emotions. And I had every tear on your face when I saw this film for the first time. Great reaction. RESPECT
Thank you, Florian. And again, I think you're absolutely correct with your statements. Very good points! Thx for watching! (:
Your reaction reminds me of how I felt when I first saw the movie in theaters. Looking forward to more movie reactions
Happy to hear that you enjoyed it! Thanks! (:
OMG! This reaction was the GOAT. Suscribed immediately
Hi Michael, thank you so much for watching and commenting AND subscribing! We appreciate it! (:
This is my favorite Tom Hanks movie
Such an incredible performance
Yes, amazing movie and an amazing performance! Thx for watching! (:
Everyone wonders, but canonically, it was hot sauce.
I'm not sure what you're referring to, but I learned a new word, canonically. In mathematics, something is canonical if it is reduced to its most basic form. Thx! (:
@@BossMovieReactions Oh sorry, I was referring to the package at the end. We never find out in the movie what was in it, but Zemeckis later reviled that it was bottles of hot sauce.
@@guyonbench Oh, okay, yeah, that is an interesting piece of Trivia. Thanks for sharing! (:
Love all the emotion and authenticity and passion in the reaction. Always look forward to their videos.
Thank you for that! And thanks for watching and commenting! We appreciate it! (:
Mike, you feel movies just like I do. This film hit me so hard in all the same places that you reacted strongly to. It was lovely to watch.
That's great to hear! Thanks for sharing that! (:
Outstanding reaction from you guys. It's such an amazing story and so well made/told that it makes us cry over a volleyball amongst many other moments. Love your channel and the content you are producing. Thank you for the content you are giving to us.
Aw, thanks for saying that!! And thanks for watching and commenting! We appreciate it! (:
Tom Hanks has all of us crying over a volleyball. What a fantastic actor
Yes, that was amazing! Thanks for watching! (:
One of the best reactions I’ve seen thank you both I’ve seen the movie so many times and you both made me cry with you
Aw, that's great to hear. Thanks for being part of the journey! (:
One of the best reaction videos I’ve watched! And I’ve watched a lot. 😄Such a smart and emotional response. Well done. New Subscriber!

Hello Jessica, thank you so much for watching and subscribing! Welcome to our channel! (:
I recommend watch the super bowl commercial called castaway. The commerical shows what was in the package 😂😂
Haha, really? I bet it was full of useful things! (((:
@@BossMovieReactions lol watch it and see 🤣
@@computersbotany4786 Haha, ok, I watched it, I was on to something, huh? Funny! Thx! (:
@@BossMovieReactions ya. No problem 👍😄
My dogs name is Wilson and I always go “ Wilson ! Wilson! I’m sorry!” 😂😂
Haha, that's awesome! Love it! (:
Wonderful reaction. Don’t feel bad about crying over a volleyball……we’ve all been there 🙈🤣
Haha, yeah, thanks for saying that! Thanks for watching and commenting! We appreciate it! (:
That was her grandfather's pocket watch that she gave him. It didn't run on batteries LOL
Yes, I would assume it was a mechanical hand-winding vintage pocket watch. I'm from the land of watches (Switzerland). Thanks for watching! (:
First time viewer, found your channel today, absolutely great reaction, and content, thank you for reaching to this film, one of Tom hanks' best for sure, you guys definitely compliment each other, I am very glad u found you today!! Can't wait to see more
Aw, we're happy you found us. We just started less than 3 months ago. See ya next time! Thanks for watching! We appreciate it! (:
Quite a genuine emotional reaction, you two are real ones. Very refreshing in a sea over the top reactors and silliness where the movie itself is often lost or becomes a side dish. Love you guys and can't wait for your LOTR (extended) reactions, and pretty much anything else you do. Thank You!
Thanks so much, we appreciate your kind words. And yes, you're right, the movie itself should not get lost. (:
We’ll y’all just earned a sub from me. Easily the most authentic reactions to this movie I’ve seen yet! I look forward to more of y’alls content!
Thank you so much for watching and commenting AND subscribing! We appreciate it! (:
Love the reaction guys, thank you for that!
Happy to hear! Thanks for watching! We appreciate it! (:
Great Reaction I thought I had already subscribed to this channel. 🎥keep up the great reactions
Thank you so much. Just reacted to "Interstellar" yesterday... Stay tuned! And thanks for subscribing! (:
I've been working with FedEx for 3.5 years and it's hands down the best damn career I've ever had. Fast paced, always new faces & they'll fly you to other cities as a contingency driver. I'll work here until I retire.
Great reaction, y'all be safe 🤠
Oh, wow, that's great to hear! Thx for watching! (:
You & me both, brother. I've seen the opening of the sail scene many times, but this reaction was the first time I got emotional from it. Wow.
Aw, so nice that we could share this moment, so to speak! Thanks for your comment! (:
52:00 Glad to see you guys understood how much Wilson meant to him. Most people reacting to this movie don't grasp the psychological importance of Wilson.
It's hard for me to imagine that someone could not grasp the psychological importance of Wilson. It was absolutely devastating! Thanks for watching, Dr. Benji. (:
Great reaction I'm speechless.
Yeah, I was speechless too for a while! (: Thanks for watching and commenting! We appreciate it! (:
I read, that in the very first production version of this movie, that they had someone doing a voice for Wilson, that answered back to him when he was talking to the ball. The editors and Director decided by the 3rd cut that having that voice took away impact from the film, so they removed that sound track.
That is very interesting and I think it was an excellent decision to remove the voiceover. Thanks for watching and sharing! (:
I doubt that’s true because it sounds very idiotic
This was the first movie to ever teach me survival skills & critical thinking, ways to use the items in those boxes for something helpful eventually. I’m so thankful for this movie teaching me so much. Wilson broke my heart too.
Yeah, great movie for some survival skills and yes, heartbreaking as well. Thanks for watching! (:
Jessica & I were totally on the same page watching him open those packages for the first time! 😂😂😂
@@mistyxmarlboro 🤣👍
By far! My favorite movie reactors on RUclips, and I've been watching them since they were a thing. You put so much time into the editing, and I appreciate it so much. You never take out a key moment in the film.
That being said. I love your guys vulnerability. I get very emotional from movies too, so it's nice to be able to share that. It's not often men allow themselves to emote and actually let themselves go.
Thank you and can't wait for the next movie!❤
Aw, what a wonderful comment. Thank you so much. Yes, editing is extremely time-consuming, but the worst part is that once I'm done editing I have to start "destroying" my work in order to pass the copyright censorship. It's really tough. Anyway, thanks for your kind words! (:
Chuck leaving the island behind, and the soundtrack kicking in, that is such manly way to shed tears
\\edit: there is not a lot of movies which portray male emotionality. This is one.
Thanks for watching and commenting! We appreciate it! (:
Best reaction to this movie I’ve seen. Thank you for this!
Thank you, Benjo, we appreciate it!! (:
Another amazing reaction :) Cant wait for Django Unchained! you guys are awesome
On the list! Thanks for watching! (:
@@BossMovieReactions yes i know :) just so excited. i think it will be your favorite movie and its so perfect for your channel 🥳🥳
@@SpicyTurk 👍
Real men cry. Great reaction guys.
I appreciate your words! Thanks! (:
Great movie, great reaction, well done and thanks. I enjoyed watching!
Happy to hear that! Thx! (:
Can't believe I cried with you over a Volleyball... R.i.p. Wilson! (Love your channel. New subscriber from South Africa!)
Hello to South Africa and thanks for watching and commenting AND subscribing AND crying with us! We appreciate it! (:
@@BossMovieReactions PLEASE consider reacting to:
1. Us
2. The fourth kind
3. Requiem for a dream
4. Hereditary
5. Life as a house
6. Donnie Darko
7. I Have Life
8. Dis ek, Anna
Dis Ek Anna is a true story, from South Africa, about a girl who was abused but, only killed her abuser when he did it to someone else, not to her. I know it won't get many views and the views are needed but, as film makers, you know that the message is important, not who is delivering it.

Just now subscribed, I enjoy your honest reactions, the depth of your responses.
Hello Malibu Man, thank you so much for watching and commenting AND subscribing! We appreciate it! (:
@@BossMovieReactions this is the third i have seen so far this afternoon. I enjoy watching those who have a genuine appreciation for the story. Your husband's emotional vulnerability shows a genuine integrity of character and decency that is sorely lacking on this platform. As a writer and an artist, I have a soft spot in my heart for the introverted. It is the introverts (and the nerds) who built our civilization. Never change, brother and sister. Life is short: always choose honesty and your genuine sense of self. Noting else matters.
@@Malibu_Man Wow, what a wonderful comment. We have read every word. Thank you so much for all your kind words, it's very much appreciated! Bless you, brother! ((:
One of the greatest scenes ever and it does make you cry for real
Yes, one of the greatest scenes indeed! Thanks for watching! (:
