I'm betting that Theron realized a while ago that, given the way that older actresses are phased out of some roles because of age, she needed to create a new avenue to ensure her acting future without being typecast as the mother/grandmother/matron that so many have been forced into. I'm glad she did, if that's the case.
Brilliant woman because in Hollywood it’s as if once someone hits a certain age they get pigeon holed into specific roles. Charlize is too powerful of an actor in her presence and passion to be stuck playing one kind of role.
I loved this movie and hope they make a second one!! The fight scenes were amazing and the actors did a great job with the immortality and showing the audience their struggles, especially the long years and how it has affected them. It was great ❤
I don't think I'm exaggerating when I say I've watched this movie, start to finish, 10 times already. I love everything about it & did not know I needed something like it too I was it. I didn't catch the significance of Don Quixote, though, but that's because I know basically nothing about the book or any movies based on it. I think now that I'll have to change that. Love the added depth that this video gives the movie!
Great video. I loved the movie, characters, everything about it. t The cast chosen for them was excellent!!! I look forward to the sequel. The whole crew was great.
Just watched the movie last night. And yes! The fight scenes gave me a little 'John Wick' vibe; in the building, on the plane, and the church in Paris. Also, just downloaded the soundtrack!
Most Netflix movies are amazing and well crafted. The old guard is definitely one of them. The fight scenes are well executed makes u proud to be an independent woman. Part 2 soon please! Hands down to my fav Charlize Theron❤
I love action a lot and this film was such a great representation of an action-packed film!! Great premise, great action scenes, pretty simple plot that still leaves room for further development. Really hoping for a sequel ☺️
None of the women you just named are considered "action heroes". They are actors who took an action oriented role. There's is no black female equivalent of Sylvester Stallone OR Jean Claude Van Damme, who are considered "action heroes".
@@limecayman LMAO if you think Zoe and Berry are just "actors with action oriented roles" you didn't see the movies. Gamora is basically the whole start of the GoTG movie and her role is super important in the "Thanos arc" and she is super badass. Halley Berry as Storm is one of the main characters in all the Xmen Movies, she is not only important but also so powerful.
@Age Of The Witch no, she's her own version. She's Charlize Theron, the best and most versatile actress of her generation. She's also an excellent producer. She was nominated for an Oscar and Golden Globe three times and in the film "Monster", where her acting was the best female performance in the cinema of all time, she won both awards. Could you give the actress the credit she deserves and stops putting male hero labels on her?
Finally stumbled upon this Netflix movie.. i love Theron as a strong female role, ever since I seen her in Eon Flux, X Men, and many more. Love the storyline 100% and really could see at least 2 more movies if Netflix really wants to give us worthy Netflix Movies. Theron is so amazing at what she's done throughout all her action films. Im so surprised she hasn't made it to a Marvel movie.
First film of her that I watched was Aeon Flux, she's so badass in that movie. That is the reason why I love her so much. Since then I have been watching her all films whenever she's the lead or not. 😊😁😉
3:35 Can you name 5 black female action heroes beside the cast of Black Panther? Watchmen - Regina King Warrior Nun - Toya Turner Altered Carbon - Renée Elise Goldsberry Thor Ragnarok - Tessa Thompson The 100 - Adina Porter
You misunderstand the point. They never said black female actors in action roles, they said Black Female Action Heroes. All you've done is name characters, not people. Zazie Beetz, Tessa Thompson, Alexandra Shipp and Naomie Harris aren't considered action stars like Sylvester Stallone or Scott Adkins. They are simply actors. There are no black female action stars at the moment.
@@limecayman Also the video referenced "Black female action heroes, other than the cast of Black Panther." None of which I would consider them to be Action heroes in your sense of that meaning.
Nitpick. At 1:59 narrator indicates Danny Hernandez talking about Charlize's stunt work, but the display says Leandro Fernandez, who was the graphic artist of the novel. Oops, or dyslexia?
Charlize can fit the role of Mystique perfectly after Rebecca, I preferred her over J. Lawrence. She's got it all.. bad ass, action skills and acting as well and not to forget her sexy, seductive beauty as well. 💗💖💪💪💪
I got so hyped for this movie, but. I loved the fight scenes and the setting, but the story itself felt weak. Why did they become immortal? Why do they decide to pick fights through millennia? No explanation whatsoever. And the bad guy felt too "flat" to me, still too comic book-ish. I know it's from a graphic novel, but I would have liked a little more realism in the adaptation. I loved the cast for the immortals, Charlize is stunning and the young girl is a very good and believable actress - can't wait to see more of her. I loved the other actors as well. The soundtrack felt unnecessary and annoying 99% of the time. I would recommend it as a damn good action movie, but I think it had the potential to be more.
I believe they pronounce it as an-draw-muh-key (andromache), not un-draw-muh-shey...also, Storm has been black her entire superhero life...good job on the rest of the video though...
Storm, Misty Knight, Thunder and her sister Lightning. There 4 superheroines all of African descent no sweat and I'm pretty certain that I'm not the only comic books fan that can name them and more. So is not that superheroines of African descent dont exist in the comics not only they do but many are very popular among comic books fans that Hollyweird prefers to ignore such well developed and loved characters and tokenize established fictional characters and even historical figures instead of actual historical figures of African descent like Frederick Douglas. That's really what's happening just FYI
I think that's what they mean. It isn't that the material isn't there (or that there aren't people out there willing not only to adapt comics but make NEW content) but that it isn't out in the world. Most people wouldn't be able to do more than name Storm. It isn't mainstream. As much as I love Black Lightning, a lot of people don't know the show or the comic. I really hope that with this shows popularity, with the popularity of Black Panther, and how EXCITED people were for Misty and Colleen (rip that potential), Hollywood gets it together. I know Marvel has a few things planned, but we shall see.
It was slow at times but the action was great. It was too sappy in parts and the villains motives were idiotic. But for some reason, I want to see a part 2! What’s going to happen next? Especially with the lady who was drowning for 500 years. LOL
The 1st time i see the movie...yeah its on May 3rd week of may 2023...damn its good Then i keep watching 4 times now Im wondering on the last scene Andy said The copley need to back up them and to erase deleting them from any stories, i guess there will be 2nd movie and yeqyyy its going to happens tis July 2023 rite....LoL My lucky year i guess, as i like theron when she take role, she play it real cool
@@mkalihashiki12 Serenity was Joss Weadon's 1st movie and it was released by Universal pictures, Colombiana was a Luc Beson film, same guy who gave us Nikita.
This is the third review I've seen where the narrator doesn't know how to pronounce Andromache. Editors don't know enough about language to fix these kinds of mistakes.
how do u review/comment on something you've clearly never seen? like they say Andromache at least 5 times in the movie, so when I heard andromashay of psythia I'm like.... did you actually watch the movie dude?
I was onboard until they started with Charlize’s costar being a role model for black women as the first “black female action hero” in a while, please stop with that crap. Halle Berry’s resume includes John Wick, 007, and Catwoman, Zoe Kravitz in the upcoming Batman movie as the latest Catwoman, Alex Shipp who played Storm in the last couple X-Men movies, Zoe Saldana in the GOTG movies, etc.
I'm betting that Theron realized a while ago that, given the way that older actresses are phased out of some roles because of age, she needed to create a new avenue to ensure her acting future without being typecast as the mother/grandmother/matron that so many have been forced into. I'm glad she did, if that's the case.
she kinda did!! she has her own production company and was a producer on the old guard
Brilliant woman because in Hollywood it’s as if once someone hits a certain age they get pigeon holed into specific roles. Charlize is too powerful of an actor in her presence and passion to be stuck playing one kind of role.
I loved this movie and hope they make a second one!! The fight scenes were amazing and the actors did a great job with the immortality and showing the audience their struggles, especially the long years and how it has affected them. It was great ❤
I saw this movie on netflix and it was damm interesting the fights in it are just incredible
i smell a sequel
@@jcp1756 i smell it as well and I knock on wood that there would be one
Same here
One of the best Netflix movies yet! I’m hoping on a part 2!!
I don't think I'm exaggerating when I say I've watched this movie, start to finish, 10 times already. I love everything about it & did not know I needed something like it too I was it. I didn't catch the significance of Don Quixote, though, but that's because I know basically nothing about the book or any movies based on it. I think now that I'll have to change that.

same I thought im the only one obsessed ..its so amazinggggg
Great video. I loved the movie, characters, everything about it. t
The cast chosen for them was excellent!!! I look forward to the sequel.
The whole crew was great.
LOVED IT WAITING FOR SEQUIL 🎯🎯🎯🎯
I Love the old guard, the fight scenes are insane. I definitely enjoyed the movie and I hope there will be a part 2 of the old guard.
Just watched the movie last night. And yes! The fight scenes gave me a little 'John Wick' vibe; in the building, on the plane, and the church in Paris. Also, just downloaded the soundtrack!
I'm guessing the soundtrack you downloaded was "Baby outlaw " 👍
@@udhaykumar9853 that's included, but my favorites are "the world we've made" and "borders". That church scene was just something.
I'm actually praying for it to become a series 😊
Ahem! It’s “Andro-ma-kee” not “andro-ma-shay”
I was thinking the exact same thing 😅
Thankyou. I was like what on earth are you saying.
Obviously the narrator didn)'t watch the movie
Most Netflix movies are amazing and well crafted. The old guard is definitely one of them. The fight scenes are well executed makes u proud to be an independent woman. Part 2 soon please! Hands down to my fav Charlize Theron❤
Most Netflix original Movies are bad and they are so many. Films like the Irishman or the Old Guard are rare.
@ Welcome. Hopefully ther will be and looking forward to it❤️
OSSA pronounces Andromache of Scythia...
*becomes triggered*
Me too. Like did they not watch the movie
I'm such a fan of the comic and movie, that that took me off as well lmao
Omg just saw this movie I LOVE CHARLIZE THERON in anything
same here!!! 😍
Ahh! Same!
Yep! "Excelente and versatile actor" is her middle name.
I do really LOVE CHARLIZE THERON 😍
The moment after i watched the old guard movie 😘
Loved the movie!! So well done. I can’t imagine anyone but Theron playing the lead. She was AMAZING!! For once I am hoping for a sequel.
I love action a lot and this film was such a great representation of an action-packed film!! Great premise, great action scenes, pretty simple plot that still leaves room for further development. Really hoping for a sequel ☺️
There are 3 books so here's hoping they film the rest.
Patsy Lowe oh great, fingers crossed! Been seeing a lot of people raving over this film as well
Loved loved loved this movie... I've had told just about everyone I know that they need to watch it. Cant wait for part 2! Amazing job cast and crew!
3:40 tiraji p henson, zoe saldana, halle berry, jada pinket, gina torres , gabrielle union .... so yeah... maybe a bit more research?
I agree, I thought it was silly the commentator said that lol
We can agree, he does not watch a LOT of movies like we do.
None of the women you just named are considered "action heroes". They are actors who took an action oriented role. There's is no black female equivalent of Sylvester Stallone OR Jean Claude Van Damme, who are considered "action heroes".
@@LTartworkx Those were Kiki Layne's words, not the commentator's, he said what he said in support of her.
@@limecayman LMAO if you think Zoe and Berry are just "actors with action oriented roles" you didn't see the movies. Gamora is basically the whole start of the GoTG movie and her role is super important in the "Thanos arc" and she is super badass.

Charlize is our female version of Keanu Reeves
@Age Of The Witch no, she's her own version. She's Charlize Theron, the best and most versatile actress of her generation. She's also an excellent producer. She was nominated for an Oscar and Golden Globe three times and in the film "Monster", where her acting was the best female performance in the cinema of all time, she won both awards. Could you give the actress the credit she deserves and stops putting male hero labels on her?
OMG DUDLEY I DIDN’T REALIZED IT WAS HIM
A Theron and Keanu film, who wants that now?
I loved the movie; especially the fight scenes. The choreography was amazing. Plus the story was great. I can't wait for the sequel.
I loved it, and I can't wait for another
Finally stumbled upon this Netflix movie.. i love Theron as a strong female role, ever since I seen her in Eon Flux, X Men, and many more.

Loved it, it was amazing 🤩
I enjoyed it very much, watched it twice. Looking forward to part 2.
Done watching it!! And Charlize is really badass!!! ❤️❤️❤️
THANK GOD they used John Wick's original fight team to help choreograph the fights because they were so good!
I also saw this movie on Netflix i love andy the most because she was fighting enormously
Old Guard is a KICK ASSSSSSSSSSSSSSS movie love it!!!
it was great hope they do sequels
The film is fantastic, the whole cast is great, love Charlize 💖😊👍

Holy crap, Dudley is in the movie
Loved it can't wait for second one!
First film of her that I watched was Aeon Flux, she's so badass in that movie. That is the reason why I love her so much. Since then I have been watching her all films whenever she's the lead or not. 😊😁😉

Everyone: omg it's Dudley dursley!
Me: omg it's that guy from that one episode of "merlin"!
Loved it. Nuff said.
Angela Basset, she acted in an action movie can't recall the name of the movie. But she was badass
I watched it on netflix. I really liked it. Do you know if there is going to be a part 2?
Yes
3:35 Can you name 5 black female action heroes beside the cast of Black Panther?
Watchmen - Regina King
Warrior Nun - Toya Turner
Altered Carbon - Renée Elise Goldsberry
Thor Ragnarok - Tessa Thompson
The 100 - Adina Porter
Zoe Saldana - Guardian of Galaxy, Colombiana and Avatar,
Halle Berry - X- man series, cat-woman
and many many others, someone didnt make a homework
This movie is awesome
"U don't speak russian"?
"Do u"?
I really liked the movie and hoped for more if they were of the same calibre
Domino, Valkyrie, Storm, Aisha, Miss Moneypenny. All within the past 10 years.
yeah I too thought it was silly the commentator said that lol
@@LTartworkx Hell most of those within the past 3 years, lol
yh thats what i thought too lol

Wouldn't this make a great TV series! A different mission every week!!!!
Like Nikita
It needs a sequel
Nitpick. At 1:59 narrator indicates Danny Hernandez talking about Charlize's stunt work, but the display says Leandro Fernandez, who was the graphic artist of the novel. Oops, or dyslexia?
Love the movie on Netflix...The fights were off the chain
Training for this film would of been soooooo fun
Great movie there needs to be a Sequel
Charlize can fit the role of Mystique perfectly after Rebecca, I preferred her over J. Lawrence. She's got it all.. bad ass, action skills and acting as well and not to forget her sexy, seductive beauty as well. 💗💖💪💪💪
Halle Berry, Zoe Saldaña from the top of my head
Name one black superhero? STORM? Hello?! Or uh, Black Lightning and his family. Female black action hero: Proud Mary!
Catwoman..Eartha Kitt
Still need alot more..anyway she is right
Nick Furry is in charge of the Avengers.
Where can i watch it for free aside from netflix? I want to watch it too
I thought it was brilliant and can't wait for the other 2 films. That is if they make them. I am hoping so.
Ive done watched this movie .

No black female action heroes???
Hmm, Zoë Saldaña in Colombiana? Zoë Alleyne Washburne played by Gina Torres?
So you named 2 (even though neither were major Hollywood movies). How many white male action heroes can you name?
