They did the airplane hijack stunt with real planes and stuntmen, no miniatures, no greenscreen, just real planes in real flight and stuntmen. As a matter of fact, the stuntman going from plane to plane failed to hold on to the smaller plane and fell of. Luckily he had a parachute and didn't get injured. Ther are videos of that on youtube.
The stunt people who did it was paid some ridiculous amount of money
12:07 For a record-breaking paycheque of $1 million, a stuntman actually rode a zip line between two jets flying at an altitude of 15,000 feet. He only performed the stunt once
Stallone took a pay cut to pay the stuntman. It is still listed as the most dangerous stunt in Guinness book!
Why do people think special effects didn't exist before 10 years ago?
John Lithgow played one of the most iconic TV villains on Dexter for an entire season.
He played the role spectacularly.
straight up real serial killer vibe
Also in the movie Raising Cain.
@@WorldOfConanGreat shout! A criminally underrated movie.
It always amazes me when folks think that movies that came out first are "referencing" newer movies. No they aren't. The other movies are referencing the older one.
underrated Syl movie is Daylight
True
Another one is Shade (2003).
John Lithgow is a great villain.
Damn Right he is! He also played the villain in a couple other good movies, Blow Out & Ricochet.
Try Raising Cain.
@@MrBoyYankee That's another good one.
@@jdnaz1288omg yes he was great in ricochet with Denzel Washington! He real villany!😂😂😂
Hello dexter morgan
If you liked this, Vertical Limit has some crazy stunts & shots.
"Oh, I see where this is going. "
Next line, 1.5 seconds later...
"What do you think is gonna happen?"
"This score doesn't have the vibe of this movie I've seen 30 seconds of."
Awesome movie with one of the craziest stunts and some of the most rad squibs ever, we totally appreciated it as kids. def an underrated gem.
I appreciate that Andrew has become a student of 80s and 90s action films. He and I could have great conversations....but sometimes he cracks me up.
"I recognize that voice as John LITH-I-GOW".
You know he's always pronouncing something wrong 😂🤷♀️
That plane scene is some of the best stunt work with planes I've seen .
It looked so real the stunts and planes .
Cliffhanger was one of my favorites and one of the best action thrillers from 1993.
Known as 'Die Hard on a mountain' and 1 of 2 smash hits for Sly in 1993 followed by
Demolition Man.
This had one of the first-ever super bowl trailers and it had the music of
Carl Orff's Carmina Burana: O Fortuna with split-second images.
So pumped to see it on Memorial Day weekend.
The suspense and drama were on par with each other.
But it was the characters and the environment that (for me) drove the action sequences.
I was age 13 at the time this movie came out and i loved it.
Also had the video game from Sony on Sega CD and the cutscenes were pieces of footage
from the movie.
Other hits from Harlin:The Long Kiss Goodnight (1996), Mindhunters (2004) and The Covenant (2006).
This was probably the best of the Die Hard style films to follow after that film. Under Siege was very good and Sudden Death in 95.
Harlin also directed films like Die Hard 2, 12 Rounds, Deep Blue Sea, A Nightmare on Elm Street 4.
@@noellezcano i know.
Just wanted to put down 3 of them.
While I'm at it, here's one more........
Harlin's first American studio film and same year as Die Hard 2, "The Adventures of Ford Fairlane".
For another good watch, check out 1995's ASSASSINS starring Stallone and Antonio Banderas. I was directed by Richard Donner. It's a solid action thriller.
My dad and I saw this in the theater when I was about 10. We both had such a blast. Later that summer, we were both there for Demolition Man. For the rest of the decade, the two of us never missed a Stallone movie. Actually, we always showed up for all the 90's action heroes. To quote Ray Liotta from Goodfellas, "it was a glorious time."
One of the best Classic Action Movies 10/10!
John lithgow He act as a villan in ricochet with denzel
Great movie!
That's a hell of a cast of character actors
5:30 I like how the old guy is laughing and smiling about the situation. All he is thinking "please fall, please fall, please fall" with that look on his face.
That cracks me up each time I see this movie! I always wondered how they didn't catch that.
Need one more film to complete the 90s Renny Harlin run, "Long Kiss Goodnight" which pairs him with writer Shane Black.
I wished Lithgow did more Villain roles.
Loved him in this and Raising Cain and Ricochet.
Dexter
The Accountant, kinda
John lithgow was the Best villain role is blowout with John Travolta.
@@karenvondermehden5054 For me, his best villainous role was in Richochet with Denzel Washington.
ah Renny Harlin, Finland's gift to nineties action genre.
I love rewatching these classic action films from the 80s and 90s. I forgot how over the top they were and how I just took that as normal when I first watched them.
Did anyone notice the bad guy who sly uses as a snowboard before he goes off the cliff is Mac's dad from it's always sunny in Philadelphia
Director Renny Harlin (originally from Finland) always put something to remind of Finland in his films. For instance in Long Kiss Goodnight Samuel L Jackson drinks Finlandia vodka. In this movie it is the Finnish flag on the parachute of the kid who ran away from the baddies.
I love that the bad guys hate each other and are constantly playing a game of leverages while still trying to recover the money.
Die Hard on a mountain. Non-stop action and some heart stopping stunts in a stunning alpine location.
Tom Cruise had the record for holding his breath for 6 minutes.
Kate Winslet broke that record in Avatar 2, holding her breath for 7 minutes, 14 seconds
One of the reasons so many scripts today read as shallow is because, like the reactors here, the writers are only able to draw from other movies, so their pool of cultural references is greatly diminished from the days when playwrights and novelists contributed to film.
We don’t read as much anymore, we don’t consume as much opera anymore and it shows in the writing. (Not that Cliffhanger is a writers’ film - it just occurs to me we’re memeing each other into artistic oblivion.)
Amen
Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer is the first film I had seen Michael Rooker in.
I saw him in Above The Law (1988).
Like one/two lines in it.
Sylvester Stallone and Michael Rooker reunited onscreen in Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 2.
People talk about the "Bike Cliff Jump" Cruise did for MI:DRPT1 but I would argue the Airplane Zip-line stunt (that actually went kinda wrong but cut away before you see it go wrong) is the greatest stunt done! No greenscreen, not CGI, no cleanup! And yes, ALLOT of it was done for real, with some exception for the really dangeours stunts.
John Lithgow chews so much scenery in this movie he oughta have an eating disorder named after him👍
You should watch Lithgow’s arc on Dexter. That season is a master class on how to play a villain.
Ricochet was one of his best villian roles
“I wonder if it’s going to end on a cliffhanger”. Good one. Lol! 😂
Lame
@@kevint1196 OMG really? Like I asked you for your opinion. Keep it to yourself.
I was introduced to John Lithgow in The Santa Claus Movie. He was a villain! 😂 He was also the Trinity Killer in Dexter. I didn't see him in a good role until Third Rock From The Sun.
Love this movie.
Jaby "why your pants so tight?" Freaking hilarious!
The scene where they're zipping from plane to plane was real. They actually zipped from 1 plane to the other while in flight. CRAZY!!!
I see Andrew Flash Gordon. I click. 😍
Cliffhanger is an awesome 90’s action flick.
I did exactly the same 🙌 love Andrew!
@@mattaffleck816thank you appreciate you!
Thank you, appreciate you 🙏
A fun family 80s John Lithgow flic to check out, is *"The Manhattan Project".*
I think you'll enjoy it.
Not an award winning kinda movie, but a decent popcorn flic, along the lines of *"Wargames".*
😊
Just imagine Stewie from Family Guy, all grown up, as the villain of this movie.
Such an underrated film....John Lithgow is scary as a villain especially in Ricochet
Great movie. Saw this in theaters. The stunt man requested and was paid a million dollars to perform the zip-line in between jets stunt 😆 I believe he was the only stuntman to agree to do it and only once. What would be better though an actual stun man performing or use modern day effects? 🤔 My favorite scene was the fight between Delmar and Tucker ... "Seasons over a$$hole" 🤣
Who else only became aware of this movie because of the opening scene to Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls?🤣🤣🤣
one of the best homages ever.
That doesn't make any sense.
Not me I always knew! LOL 😂
Not me. Never seen an ace ventura movie but I've seen this several times and no matter how many times I see this, that opening scene is intense!
I always knew
I often spend my holidays among those mountains in Ampezzo, italian Alps. I always feel the thrill I got from this wonderful movie. The first scene is always a great shock.
Love this movie, has some heart-stopping moments for sure. I second the suggestion for Vertical Limit, it’s one of my favourite mountain climbing movies. The actress around 16:40 that you said ‘looks so familiar’ is Caroline Goodall, she’s been in tons of things. She’s Anne Hathaway’s hippy artist mom in The Princess Diaries, Robin Williams’ wife in Hook, Schindler’s List and my personal favourite - My Life In Ruins/Driving Aphrodite.
The writer for this film was annoyed when Stallone ad libbed the line, “expensive fire place. Bad humor I know.” The bad humor line wasn’t in the script but it was basically Stallone taking a shot at the writing
I love John Lithgow. If you are going to play a bad guy, PLAY A BAD GUY!
Lithgow is hampered by being in a Stallone movie. He can’t sound better as a villain.
Very underrated movie. Janine Turner is so gorgeous! Have you guys ever seen Northern Exposure? Great show!
Amazing Film by Renny Harlin 🤘🏻💯🎞🎬 Amazing stunts
Michael Rooker was sliding around on that cable 4,000 feet in the air between takes, just for fun.
HARD TARGET with JVC is another great movie. It's even got lance henriksen in but STONE COLD has to be my favourite lance movie it's a forgotten gem 💎
No matter how many times I watch this movie when the woman falls still gets me.
Me too.
Especially after the first time watching.
I heard the shock alone, during a fall like that could kill you.
@@k.delpino1124 I have heard that also and I can imagine it could. It would be absolutely terrifying.
I'm so glad you reacted to this. One of my favorites
John Lithgow played a convincing villain, named The Trinity Killer, in Showtimes original series Dexter.
great choice guys! For Lithgow at his most villainous, I recommend either RICOCHET (1991) with a young Denzel and Ice-T, or Brian De Palma's 1992 thriller RAISING CAIN.
The reason it’s so bright is because they are shooting this inside a Studio.
The teaser trailer for this was my favorite thing about it. Nothing but imagery and opera, with basically a declaration that Stallone was back in action after a few light-hearted and comedic films. "Demolition Man" followed later in the year. The trailer didn't even show anything from the air-jacking (maybe a later trailer did; I only remember seeing that teaser.)
For fans of the show "Northern Exposure," it was also interesting to see Janine Turner in a prominent role yet looking a lot like her character stepped out of that show and into this movie.
Hey Jaby, I worked in a cash room for a while and those thoughts of taking a few bills disappear real quick when you show up for work and have to enter through an airlock, get patted down by armed guards, enter another airlock to get into the cash room, and work under the supervision of more armed guards ... all the while being watched by multiple cameras from multiple angles... =) it's tempting, but you know you'd be fucked if you even started to try!
The music for this film was composed by Trevor Jones. He also composed the score for Last of the Mohicans. The themes are similar. That's why it sounds familiar.
Stallone kept hold of her on screen he had so much strength and grip that had to reshoot the beginning with the actress wearing a bigger glove for her to slip out of
Ricochet with Denzel and John Lithgow and Ice T...John played the villian...GREAT MOVIE!
For all the great stunts, I'm really wanting them to be as much practical as possible in the upcoming sequel. It'll be fun to see Stallone play Gabe again.
Lithgow plays villain in season 3( I think ) of dexter, the trinity killer
Surprisingly there's going to be a sequel to this. Sylvester Stallone is coming back and I heard the director is Rick Rowan Waugh who directed films like Angel has fallen, Greenland, Snitch, and Kandahar.
You two did a great reaction ❤
John Lithgow was the villain in “Ricochet” with Denzel Washington. You guys should check that one out.
41:22 thats the beauty of action movies. They aren't supposed to be realistic. If it is, its not a good action movie.
It's easy to turn up 30 years later and start talking about film flaws and storyline. At the time we loved it (still love it) and loved Stallone he gave us lots of entertainment; so did Renny Harlin. By the way he also did 'The Long Kiss Goodnight' with his then wife Geena Davis. This was back when real men made real movies. Not the trash we get today.
Anyway, I'm glad you enjoyed it. Welcome to the 90's
John Lithgow was a great villain in the extraordinarily over-the-top Denzel Washington action flick "Ricochet". Pure cheese. I love it. 🧀
You guys are so obsessed with green screen vs not green screen that I think it takes away from the movie experience…and just focusing on that. I couldn’t get through it after about the 20th “that is green screen” 😂.
Get…over….it. Lol. But I still mostly enjoy all your reactions.
The wildest take is that if they'd just gotten away with it, many lives would have been saved.
If you watch the BTS, Stallone does a lot of his own stunts, including the climbing.
John lithgow always makes a great villain
According to Stallone, along with Rambo III, he put the most muscle on for this film.
All the climbing and stunts felt so real, I was cold. Cool flick.
Hands down, best Renny Harlin movie, "The Long Kiss Goodnight" (1995).
If you haven't seen it, you need to check it out.
There is a movie called Raising Cain with John Lithgow, where he is a psychopath. You guys should check it out
"Weeeeeeeeeeee" jaby is hilarious
One of John Lithgow as a real nasty villain is Blow Out 1981 with John Travolta as the protagonist. I enjoy those old movies.
This was filmed in fall creek falls in tennessee where the mountains dont look like that
Rock 1, Copland and Creed is Sly at is best.
For more Lithgow as a villain, check out him and Denzel in Ricochet. He was also in a thriller called Raising Cain.
Haha you guys are too funny, you say of this film is doing to do a Batman Dark Knight Rises or insert other movie here, but this movie came out 15 years before those movies!! Haha. You should be saying oh there is where Dark Knight got the idea from. lol
It's like calling out movies for tropes when those movies came out 30-40 years ago and established those tropes people bitch about😅
Andrew references the dark knight rises ALOT.
Why are we pronouncing Lithgow (Lith-Go) like Lith-i-co?
this movie wasn't really noticed when it came out because the competition was insane at this time.
OH yuo guys def should see J Lithgow in Ricochet as a nasty villain going after Denzel washington
Fairly standard action movie but that opening is something you just never forget.
Truth. I remember sitting in the theater thinking “That actress is really selling this!”
Standard action movie? You're kidding right. Action movies today are fairly standard
It's cheesy fun that lean's on its tropes. I miss these kinds of silly action flicks. John Lithgow is really great villain.
Die hard on a mountain. Still a great summer action movie.
And now watch "vertical limit" from 2000 with Chris O'Donnell, Robin Tunney, Bill Paxton, Ben Mendelssohn and others...
18:38 - *_If the the money is unexchangeable and therefore "Useless" has he says: Then why take such high precautions as having them flown instead of just move them by truck?_*
Only time you've seen Lithgow as a villain? Watch Dexter
When I want to see this in the theaters it was gripping but most of it was filmed on location just slightly different camera angles to make it look like they were very high but most of the time they were 20 ft or less with a catch net. That's what I heard I missed the making of it which was really huge documentary
Lithgo was having fun
This was a Classic movie indeed
The third act of Mission: Impossible Fallout is like this movie if it was dropped on its head as a baby.
John Lithgow was a villain in Ricochet with Denzel Washington.
Now, watch Sylvester Stallone again in Cop Land. Ray Liotta, Robert De Niro & Robert Patrick. Incredible cast in that movie.
Such a great movie I hope it doesn’t get lost in time that definitely deserves a reaction
To think it would be 24 yeras until Stallone and Rooker would both be in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.2 together, then in Suicide Squad.
