I never thought I would find anyone other than me that like Tinker Taylor Soldier Spy. I love the book, movie and TV-series, but the movie is a favourite of mine.
I'd pitch Redford's *Three Days of the Condor* (1975) into the mix, too, as the prototype of the on-the-run spy thriller. There are a lot of con artist and organized crime movies which qualify as tradecraft, too, like *The Departed* (2006) and *Ronin* (1998).
Thanks for doing this review! I lost count on how many times I have watched this movie. Musical score is fantastic, especially after the rescue and they are flying back and when ‘Tom’ realizes it was ‘Nathan’ that got him and his woman out. Very underrated movie.
@@charlesharris9692the Brad Pitt movie that is completely forgotten about is Seven Years in Tibet. No one ever talks about that movie, I’ve never even seen it on Tv
10:35 - Also, there are NO Snakes in Hawaii either. They are banned along with many other creatures which would be invasive to the many delicate bird species that exist here.
CIA Agent Harry Duncan was Cassius- master of ceremonies in Gladiator. Gotta recognize that voice! Elizabeth Hadley was Mel Gibson's bride in Braveheart!
A River Runs Through It and Legends of the Fall (kinda gives off western vibes) are both earlier Brad Pitt films both set in early 20th century Montana. Redford directed and narrated the former.
Good one, Madison! Love this movie. Robert & Brad were really good together, weren't they? You should add Legends Of The Fall to you Brad Pitt movie list. I think you will enjoy that one. It's not a western, but it is set in Montana during WWI, and it also has Anthony Hopkins in it. Thanks for sharing this one! 🙂
Great reaction. This is one of my favorite films. Such a genius story and plot. Must have seen it 6-7 times by now. Robert Redford and Brad Pitt is brilliant in this and they have such chemistry between them. I have to agree with you on the music. Gregson Williams shows his brilliance again. I have listened to this soundtrack many times on Spotify.
You’ve got to check out the Robert Redford movie: THE HORSE WHISPERER great movie!! Great story!! Great western scenery!! Horses !! Scarlet Johanssons first movie ( I believe)she did great!! Everyone did!!
Re: Brad Pitt Some of his best acting, imo, includes this movie, *Twelve Monkeys* (1995), *Fight Club* (1999), *Interview with a Vampire* (1994), *Meet Joe Black* (1998), *Legends of the Fall* (1994), *A River Runs Through It* (1998), *Burn After Reading* (2008), *Moneyball* (2011), and an honorable mention to *The Mexican* (2001), because I just really like that one. I haven't seen *Ad Astra* (2019) or *Babylon* (2022) yet, but I hear good things. These aren't his most popular or most successful, but are among his best work as an actor, in my opinion. Here endeth the memo.
I wanted to add to your observations regarding Nathan. Nathan was a patriot and had unshakeable loyalty to the people that were important to him. This was demonstrated in his interactions with Gladys and as a result of that relationship, she would do anything for him. Also, with Harry, his CIA counterpart in London. That's why I think at his core, he was a loyalist although it took a very strong idealism for him to become loyal to something. He was loyal to his country and would do anything for it. And he was loyal to his friends, and would do anything for them. For everyone else, they were just pawns to him.
Brad Pitt recommendations: 12 Monkeys Fight Club Se7en The Oceans Trilogy Legends of the Fall Interview With The Vampire Bullet Train The Big Short Moneyball The Curious Case of Benjamin Button Inglorious Basterds Meet Joe Black Once Upon a Time in Hollywood Snatch Sleepers A River Runs Through It Oh, and Troy is probably worth finishing :)
Madison, Have you seen, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid? It is a Western starring Paul Newman and Robert Redford. Another favorite Robert Redford movie is Jeremiah Johnson. He’s a mountain man. I think you’d really like either of these movies a lot.
Love spy movies, I grew up watching cold war spy movies & some of my favorites were The Fourth Protocol & Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy R 2011 ‧ Thriller/Mystery ‧ 2h 7m
THANKS for this selection, Madison. There are SOOO many flicks at this level that just go unnoticed. SO many. I'll just leave it at that, lol, considering after four-plus years of watching reaction channels and it's only now(!) that someone gets around to a beauty that isn't even on the list of stuff I've already got tired of suggesting, lol. Anyhoo... as for some Brad/Redford suggestions... a lot of people have suggested Argo (and rightfully so). Argo, when being made, sought to recreate the cinematography of All The President's Men (1976). That is one I suggest, with Redford and Dustin Hoffman. Truth and tension done so well. As for Brad, I usually go with Moneyball, but I think David Fincher's The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (2008) would be nice change. Both selections are made because NO ONE has got around to them. I mean, the other day I freaked out because I found out Cinema Paradiso, The Commitments, Four Weddings and A Funeral, Day of the Jackal had finally been viewed by some people on their channel...!
The bombed building was only done because Robert Redford’s character, Nathan, couldn’t take the chance the head bad guy would get away if the Doctor didn’t make it.
Two of my top 5 movies of all time have Redford in them! Spy Games and The Natural. Another amazing Spy Movie with top notch acting is “Body of Lies” with Leonardo DiCaprio and Russell Crowe!! 👍🏽 Great reaction!
Brad Pitt films and some of the great directors he has worked with: Thelma and Louise - Ridley Scott True Romance - Tony Scott (same as Spy Game) Seven - David Fincher Twelve Monkeys - Terry Gilliam Fight Club - David Fincher Snatch - Guy Ritchie Oceans Eleven & Twelve & Thirteen - Steven Soderbergh Curious Case of Benjamin Button - David Fincher Inglorious Bastards - Quentin Tarantino Tree of Life - Terrance Malick Moneyball - Bennett Miller The Big Short - Adam McKay Once Upon a Time in Hollywood - Quentin Tarantino That is a curated list so he has so many more good movies but he always works with the best directors and has always fought the Hollywood stereotype of a movie hunk. He is one of the best actors in modern Hollywood and he is so good looking, it’s really not fair. As far as gems to recommend, I think a film that really fits your vibe is Days of Heaven by Terrance Malick. It is from 1978 so I don’t think it would be a good channel pick because not many people have seen it, but I really think you would love it.
Great movie, Tony Scott was such an incredible director. GI Jane w/Demi Moore, Viggo Mortensen & so many others, & Enemy of the State (ahead of its time) w/Gene Hackman & Will Smith. All have a similar energy, story telling style, editing, keep the story moving, just everything.
Welcome to Tony Scott, Ridley Scott's younger brother. His directorial energy is insane. His movie before this, Enemy of the State is another spy thriller with Will Smith and Gene Hackman. He also directed a small movie called Top Gun....
If you are interested in other prison films, I'd suggest "Brubaker" (1980, again with Robert Redford and other well-known actors, sort of "Shawshank Redemption"); and "Midnight Express" (1978), Oliver Stone won an Oscar for Best Adapted Screenplay. Both had Oscar Awards nominations.
This was part of what some call the LA corruption trilogy. All 3 are loosely based on actual events. Starts with, "Chinatown" Jack Nicholson and Faye Dunaway, then LA Confidential, followed by "Training Day with Denzel.
The best spy movie ever made. Underrated. More like this ; Copland - Stallone in an acting role from James (Logan) Mangold with De Nero, Harvey Kietel, Ray Liotta (Goodfellas) and John (West Wing) Spencer. LA Confidential - 50s cops thriller with a new to the scene Guy Pearce and Russel Crowe, and Kevin Spacey during his epic 90s run of bangers.
I luv this movie.! Excellent reaction! Spy movies are great at suspense and cleverness and Spy Game gives you both! Of coarse having Pitt and Redford helps too! Love the imagery switcharoo and just the whole spy trade craft! Just to suggest another clever and suspenseful spy movie i think you'd like ARGO! With Ben Affleck. Sneakers with Redford is also a good one. Thanks for sharing! ❤️💛
Not a bad choice kinda similar to the other Pitt with Pacino spies. But Pitt has done s... since killing Them Softly and was always off on overatted? Watch it later...
Lots of fun watching Nathan outsmart 'em all wasn't it? You can bet they never saw him again, for sure he an "out" planned as soon as he decided to save Tom . Another great movie with Pitt is the sci-fi thriller, "12 Monkeys" My favorite Redford film is " The Electric Horseman"...funny and charming rom-com, Co -starring Jane Fonda and Willie Nelson. And yeah, I couldn't be a spy either, it's too hard to be lying to people you're gonna get killed.
Another movie with Redford (and a HUGE excellent cast) that has a spy "feel" to it, but is much more lighthearted than this is Sneakers. Great movie, and definitely worth checking out some time.
Fantastic movie, got to love the soundtrack 🥰👍 Brad Pitt, fantastic actor... my favorites of his movies are drama (with Anthony Hopkins and Claire Forlani) Meet Joe Black (1998) and fun roadtrip adventure (with Julia Roberts and James Gandolfini) Mexican (2001) 🎉 you like westerns so the second one might be better choice for you.
There have been a lot of great recommendations for Brad Pitt movies and I will add one more with Meet Joe Black -- a really beautiful, epic, sad and yet ultimately uplifting film.
Truly a masterpiece. Most people whine that its too long and slow pased but for me length has never been promblem... time just flyis by while watching that. And I have watched that movie four times so far abd it never got bored 🙂👍
This is a lot closer to what a spy is than anything James Bond has ever been because James Bond is like eight people and one and it's utterly impossible so watching this provides a story that is much closer to the truth.
Obviously Brad Pitt’s most iconic film is Fight Club. It’s extremely intense and electrifying. It’s also like nothing you’ve ever seen before. If you ever want your mind blown , this is the film. I actually don’t know if you would like it or not. I’m sure you would never forget it. Thanks for all your nuanced reactions. I’m a fan.
This film was epic on the big screen, empty theater, last showing on a school night. For a sentimental mind-bender with Brad Pitt, try MEET JOE BLACK (1998).
This movie is SO good. Haven’t seen anyone else react to it yet. I never considered myself a Brad Pitt fan, but as time went on, I realized a LOT of my favorite movies had Brad Pitt in them. 🤷🏻♂️
For Brad Pitt movies, I think you'd really like Legends of the Fall; Fight Club and Meet Joe Black are outstanding and Mr and Mrs Smith is a lot of fun. Redford has such a big catalog but the Natural might be my favorite; Sneakers is one that often gets forgotten about. And of course the Sting and Butch Cassidy (both with Paul Newman). Truly I don't know if he's ever really had a flop..
Great reaction and edit Maddy! It doesn't get nearly any recognition for reactions, but it deserves better. Brad Pitt and Robert Redford? C'mon now peeps.
Brad: first that comes to my mind is always "Burn after reading" (♥️) in which he's amazing, then two widely acclaimed and not my favourites "Meet Joe Black" and "Legends of the fall". The next 3 that I really like and which give him an opportunity to shine are "Seven" "12 monkeys" and "Fury". There are also two enjoyable lighter movies "Mr and Mrs Smith" and a recent "Lost city" in which Bullock and Tatum are the stars but Pitt and especially Radcliffe steal the show (Daniel gives a masterclass, in my opinion). There are also "Ocean's..." which are fun to watch but if you had Depp, Norton, Cusack, or maybe even Affleck or a Baldwin instead of Pitt in the role, nothing much would change. I think that Pitt does a great job in each of his movies. I'm purposefully not mentioning a certain film that I don't like but I'm sure will be mentioned as first choice by most.
oki theres a robert redford movie called "tell them willie boy is here" its dark..its underrated ..its pretty much a western ..but its good brad pitt "meet joe black"
So - tippy top of the list for Brad Pitt is his other movie with Redford - A River Runs Through It. After that I'd say True Romance. He's not a lead but its an amazing movie all around with so many brilliant cameos, including his, that it needs to be seen. Then I'd go with either Seven or 12 Monkeys; I's say Seven edges out 12 Monkeys because he is one of 2 leads with Morgan Freeman, where he is supporting Bruce Willis in 12 Monkeys. His role in Snatch is iconic as well, and since you are a Westerns girl, you'll love Legends of the Fall where he is every bit the 90s heartthrob.
Such an underated film. Another underated movie with Robert Redford that also stars Morgan Freeman is "An Unfinished Life."
You need to start a cult where you can worship the word “underrated” since you love it so much
Underrated movie
SNEAKERS
is another great spy movie with Robert Redford, Dan Akroyd and Sidney Poitier!!
Clever!!
Definitely. great cast .
Sneakers is definitely a great movie and the cast is even better.
TOO MANY SECRETS
Brad Pitt is such an underrated actor. The past 30 years, he has grown in his range. Snatch was incredible! Great reaction. 👍🏾
Robert Redford … Jeremiah Johnson … The Sting … Three Days of the Condor … All the President’s Men … Brubaker … The Electric Horseman.
And... The Candidate... The Natural... Sneakers... A Bridge Too Far
"I don't want your money, Mr Steele."
So good :)
+1 Three Days of Condor
She’s already covered about half of these. Check out previous reactions.
Horse whisperer
This is my favorite spy movie. This and Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy. Both seem like great examples trickery and deduction.
I never thought I would find anyone other than me that like Tinker Taylor Soldier Spy. I love the book, movie and TV-series, but the movie is a favourite of mine.
I'll put in a word for two classic thrillers with espionage undercurrents: The Day of the Jackal (1973) and The Manchurian Candidate (1962).
I'd pitch Redford's *Three Days of the Condor* (1975) into the mix, too, as the prototype of the on-the-run spy thriller. There are a lot of con artist and organized crime movies which qualify as tradecraft, too, like *The Departed* (2006) and *Ronin* (1998).
The original Get Carter with Michael Caine
Madison has done an excellent reaction to Condor.
Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy with Gary Oldman and that Sherlock guy what's his name. Whatever, pretty good spy movie.
@@crincon Benedict Cumberbatch.... the movie can't hold a candle to the BBC series made in the 70s, with Alec Guinness.
Thanks for doing this review! I lost count on how many times I have watched this movie. Musical score is fantastic, especially after the rescue and they are flying back and when ‘Tom’ realizes it was ‘Nathan’ that got him and his woman out. Very underrated movie.
Well worth the wait. Fun movie, another great reaction Madison.
THANK YOU so much for reacting to this. SO MANY REACTORS MISS OUT ON GREAT MOVIES LIKE THESE.
Brad Pitt … Legends of the Fall … A River Runs Through it … Seven … Twelve Monkeys … Fight Club … Snatch.
I agree with all of those!
Legends of a Fall and Meet Joe Black are two really good Brad Pitt movies.
All classics, but I think Brad Pitt's hands should have gotten a Special Oscar for Twelve Monkeys. I can't stop watching that performance!
@@williampearson9679Legends of the Fall was the movie that made Brad Pitt a star
@@charlesharris9692the Brad Pitt movie that is completely forgotten about is Seven Years in Tibet. No one ever talks about that movie, I’ve never even seen it on Tv
Awesome choice, underrated movie 🎬 RIP to the late great Tony Scott. Harry Gregson Williams did a Awesome job with the soundtrack 👌🎶🎵
Please stop saying “underrated.” That word is just annoying now because everybody calls EVERYTHING underrated
OMG you are the first women on the whole internet who reacts to this movie, been waiting for this!! ;)
‘Second hand lions’. Great feel good movie
Legends of the Fall is another great Brad Pitt movie. You might like it 😊
Yay, I've been suggesting this one whenever a reactor likes a Robert Redford movie and I think this is the first actual Spy Game reaction I've seen.
yes it is!!
This is the second time that Redford and Pitt has worked together. Redford directed " A River Runs Through It" starring Brad Pitt in 1992.
Redford also narrates throughout the movie.
@@GoEqBroThelma & Louise and River Runs Though It are the 2 movies that got Brad Pitt noticed… Legends of the Fall was what made him a star
This is one if my favorite spy movies. My daughter said it's one of the few times her husband didn't touch his phone for the entire movie
A great Robert Redford movie is The Last Castle. It also stars James Gandolfini from Sopranos
LOVE Spy Game!!! It's definitely under-rated- and not only has 2 of my favorite actors but was directed by the amazing Tony Scott!
10:35 - Also, there are NO Snakes in Hawaii either. They are banned along with many other creatures which would be invasive to the many delicate bird species that exist here.
Thank you Madison for reacting to this! Favorite Brad Pitt movies are Legends of the Fall and A Rvier Runs Through It.
Both of those are Very Good!
CIA Agent Harry Duncan was Cassius- master of ceremonies in Gladiator. Gotta recognize that voice!
Elizabeth Hadley was Mel Gibson's bride in Braveheart!
A River Runs Through It and Legends of the Fall (kinda gives off western vibes) are both earlier Brad Pitt films both set in early 20th century Montana. Redford directed and narrated the former.
I'd forgotten how good that movie was. Thanks for the great reaction!
Good one, Madison! Love this movie. Robert & Brad were really good together, weren't they? You should add Legends Of The Fall to you Brad Pitt movie list. I think you will enjoy that one. It's not a western, but it is set in Montana during WWI, and it also has Anthony Hopkins in it. Thanks for sharing this one! 🙂

Love this film, glad someone is covering it! Robert Redford is effortlessly cool in this.
So glad someone has done this movie! Not many people have done this one!
You’ve got to check out the Robert Redford movie:
THE HORSE WHISPERER
great movie!! Great story!! Great western scenery!! Horses !!
Scarlet Johanssons first movie ( I believe)she did great!! Everyone did!!
Seconded. As a family that's dealt with traumatic injury and permanent disability, it hits very close to home. And it's beautiful!!
Re: Brad Pitt
Some of his best acting, imo, includes this movie, *Twelve Monkeys* (1995), *Fight Club* (1999), *Interview with a Vampire* (1994), *Meet Joe Black* (1998), *Legends of the Fall* (1994), *A River Runs Through It* (1998), *Burn After Reading* (2008), *Moneyball* (2011), and an honorable mention to *The Mexican* (2001), because I just really like that one. I haven't seen *Ad Astra* (2019) or *Babylon* (2022) yet, but I hear good things. These aren't his most popular or most successful, but are among his best work as an actor, in my opinion.
Here endeth the memo.
Ad Astra was beauriful- all about forgiveness.
Redford has a LOT of heist / spy movies. Even in his role with the MCU, he was a spy guy.
Wow! I've never seen a reaction to this film. Congrats!
Such a great movie!
I wanted to add to your observations regarding Nathan. Nathan was a patriot and had unshakeable loyalty to the people that were important to him. This was demonstrated in his interactions with Gladys and as a result of that relationship, she would do anything for him. Also, with Harry, his CIA counterpart in London. That's why I think at his core, he was a loyalist although it took a very strong idealism for him to become loyal to something. He was loyal to his country and would do anything for it. And he was loyal to his friends, and would do anything for them. For everyone else, they were just pawns to him.
One of my favorite Robert Redford movies is “The Natural” which is a baseball film and a wonderful, wonderful movie!!
Brad Pitt recommendations:
12 Monkeys
Fight Club

Bullet Train
The Big Short
Moneyball
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
Inglorious Basterds
Meet Joe Black

Thanks for the reaction to this underrated spy thriller!
Madison, Have you seen, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid? It is a Western starring Paul Newman and Robert Redford. Another favorite Robert Redford movie is Jeremiah Johnson. He’s a mountain man. I think you’d really like either of these movies a lot.
She has - she's reacted to it on this channel.

R 2011 ‧ Thriller/Mystery ‧ 2h 7m
Excellent selection, MKT. Great cast, engrossing story, and very good action scenes.
good job Madison, loved this movie myself. Another Brad Pitt I think especially you would enjoy if you haven't is "Legends of the Fall"
I really enjoy your content and you are a wonderful artist. Have a great day!
Robert Redford - The Company You Keep
now if you like this I recommend another Robert Redford semi similar to this called THE LAST CASTLE.
watched it 29 times ..its a gem
its nice to find more Harry gregson-williams enthusiasts! great reaction video!
THANKS for this selection, Madison. There are SOOO many flicks at this level that just go unnoticed. SO many. I'll just leave it at that, lol, considering after four-plus years of watching reaction channels and it's only now(!) that someone gets around to a beauty that isn't even on the list of stuff I've already got tired of suggesting, lol.
Anyhoo... as for some Brad/Redford suggestions... a lot of people have suggested Argo (and rightfully so).

Love this movie!! Nathan playing everyone else. "Always be the smartest person in the room" and he was!
This is one of my favorite movies great script and to my surprise a Love Story
You'd probably like Legends of the Fall, but make sure you keep a full box of tissues close
I'm amazed I haven't seen more reactions for this movie.
Yeah! Finally!
The bombed building was only done because Robert Redford’s character, Nathan, couldn’t take the chance the head bad guy would get away if the Doctor didn’t make it.
I'm never going to stop recommending The Horse Whisperer. It's long but it's for a reason. Awesome movie.
Two of my top 5 movies of all time have Redford in them! Spy Games and The Natural.
Another amazing Spy Movie with top notch acting is “Body of Lies” with Leonardo DiCaprio and Russell Crowe!! 👍🏽
Great reaction!
One of my 2 Favorite Robert Redford movies. I can't wait to see your reaction to this!
Brad Pitt movies you’ll enjoy is Legends of the Fall and Meet Joe Black to name just 2
Cool reaction as always Madison, you take care and have a nice day sweetie 🥰❤️
Brad Pitt films and some of the great directors he has worked with:
Thelma and Louise - Ridley Scott
True Romance - Tony Scott (same as Spy Game)
Seven - David Fincher
Twelve Monkeys - Terry Gilliam
Fight Club - David Fincher
Snatch - Guy Ritchie
Oceans Eleven & Twelve & Thirteen - Steven Soderbergh
Curious Case of Benjamin Button - David Fincher
Inglorious Bastards - Quentin Tarantino
Tree of Life - Terrance Malick
Moneyball - Bennett Miller
The Big Short - Adam McKay
Once Upon a Time in Hollywood - Quentin Tarantino
That is a curated list so he has so many more good movies but he always works with the best directors and has always fought the Hollywood stereotype of a movie hunk. He is one of the best actors in modern Hollywood and he is so good looking, it’s really not fair.
As far as gems to recommend, I think a film that really fits your vibe is Days of Heaven by Terrance Malick. It is from 1978 so I don’t think it would be a good channel pick because not many people have seen it, but I really think you would love it.
Best spy movie!! Thanks for reacting to this
The man in Germany was the German soldier they all let go in Saving Private Ryan (and who killed Tom Hanks character).
Great movie, Tony Scott was such an incredible director. GI Jane w/Demi Moore, Viggo Mortensen & so many others, & Enemy of the State (ahead of its time) w/Gene Hackman & Will Smith. All have a similar energy, story telling style, editing, keep the story moving, just everything.
Welcome to Tony Scott, Ridley Scott's younger brother. His directorial energy is insane. His movie before this, Enemy of the State is another spy thriller with Will Smith and Gene Hackman. He also directed a small movie called Top Gun....
❤Hello Lovely Madison 😘
Have you reacted to
(Legends Of the Fall ) ??
Have blessed rest of your
Week ❤ CjD 😘
Great reaction. Saw this film years ago when it came out. Another great spy movie is The Day of the Jackal.
The father/son movie I never knew I needed
The movie was shot in my country. I can recognise all those locations.
If you are interested in other prison films, I'd suggest "Brubaker" (1980, again with Robert Redford and other well-known actors, sort of "Shawshank Redemption"); and "Midnight Express" (1978), Oliver Stone won an Oscar for Best Adapted Screenplay. Both had Oscar Awards nominations.
I second Brubaker
Sneakers is another amazing Robert Redford film, a comedy/caper thriller.
This was part of what some call the LA corruption trilogy. All 3 are loosely based on actual events. Starts with, "Chinatown" Jack Nicholson and Faye Dunaway, then LA Confidential, followed by "Training Day with Denzel.
I've always liked this.
Top Gun was Tony Scott, Ridley's brother.
The best spy movie ever made. Underrated. More like this ;
Copland - Stallone in an acting role from James (Logan) Mangold with De Nero, Harvey Kietel, Ray Liotta (Goodfellas) and John (West Wing) Spencer.
LA Confidential - 50s cops thriller with a new to the scene Guy Pearce and Russel Crowe, and Kevin Spacey during his epic 90s run of bangers.
I love this movie!

Argo and Three Days Of The Condor would be my picks, to add another Redford spy movie to the mix.
Not a bad choice kinda similar to the other Pitt with Pacino spies. But Pitt has done s... since killing Them Softly and was always off on overatted? Watch it later...
Lots of fun watching Nathan outsmart 'em all wasn't it? You can bet they never saw him again, for sure he an "out" planned as soon as he decided to save Tom .

Fantastic movie, got to love the soundtrack 🥰👍
Brad Pitt, fantastic actor... my favorites of his movies are drama (with Anthony Hopkins and Claire Forlani) Meet Joe Black (1998) and fun roadtrip adventure (with Julia Roberts and James Gandolfini) Mexican (2001) 🎉 you like westerns so the second one might be better choice for you.
There have been a lot of great recommendations for Brad Pitt movies and I will add one more with Meet Joe Black -- a really beautiful, epic, sad and yet ultimately uplifting film.
Truly a masterpiece. Most people whine that its too long and slow pased but for me length has never been promblem... time just flyis by while watching that. And I have watched that movie four times so far abd it never got bored 🙂👍
@@DVDhoarder I agree! And a beautiful score by Thomas Newman that makes you feel like crying, Madison!
This is a lot closer to what a spy is than anything James Bond has ever been because James Bond is like eight people and one and it's utterly impossible so watching this provides a story that is much closer to the truth.
Obviously Brad Pitt’s most iconic film is Fight Club. It’s extremely intense and electrifying. It’s also like nothing you’ve ever seen before. If you ever want your mind blown , this is the film. I actually don’t know if you would like it or not. I’m sure you would never forget it. Thanks for all your nuanced reactions. I’m a fan.
This film was epic on the big screen, empty theater, last showing on a school night. For a sentimental mind-bender with Brad Pitt, try MEET JOE BLACK (1998).
Personally I find Spy Game to a so-so movie but it has an extremely satisfying ending.
Interview with a Vampire
How do you just remember all these composers and directors. Sheesh.
You need to react to the spaghetti westerns trilogy with Clint Eastwood watch fist full of dollar’s fist.
This movie is SO good. Haven’t seen anyone else react to it yet.
I never considered myself a Brad Pitt fan, but as time went on, I realized a LOT of my favorite movies had Brad Pitt in them. 🤷🏻♂️
Elizabeth Hadley is the same actress that played Mel Gibson's young wife in Braveheart if you've seen it.
For Brad Pitt movies, I think you'd really like Legends of the Fall; Fight Club and Meet Joe Black are outstanding and Mr and Mrs Smith is a lot of fun.
Redford has such a big catalog but the Natural might be my favorite; Sneakers is one that often gets forgotten about. And of course the Sting and Butch Cassidy (both with Paul Newman). Truly I don't know if he's ever really had a flop..
Nathan is playing a master game of chess while they're all playing tic-tac-toe lol....
First reaction ive seen for this movie. 👍
Two great Brad Pitt movies “Legends of the Fall” and “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button”

oki theres a robert redford movie called "tell them willie boy is here" its dark..its underrated ..its pretty much a western ..but its good brad pitt "meet joe black"
So - tippy top of the list for Brad Pitt is his other movie with Redford - A River Runs Through It. After that I'd say True Romance. He's not a lead but its an amazing movie all around with so many brilliant cameos, including his, that it needs to be seen. Then I'd go with either Seven or 12 Monkeys; I's say Seven edges out 12 Monkeys because he is one of 2 leads with Morgan Freeman, where he is supporting Bruce Willis in 12 Monkeys. His role in Snatch is iconic as well, and since you are a Westerns girl, you'll love Legends of the Fall where he is every bit the 90s heartthrob.
I like spy tradecraft movies like you like Westerns.
Fantastic selection. Not many people do this film, and lots of reactors all follow each other on whats the 'hot' film to watch. Good job.
