This has been a reaction I've been trying to get on the channel for 3 months. I just now finally got it approved for RUclips. If you enjoyed the reaction, give me a LIKE!
You've got to see "Grumpier Old Men" .... the sequel is just as good
Good movie, Sequel is my favorite
Sequel is actually better in my opinion. Sooooo funny, heartwarming, and just damn entertaining!
i was going to say I swear I saw this, but I got in during the window where it was briefly up originally.
Jack Lemon is a treasure ❤️
Another one is Billy Crystal…City Slickers is a good one for him.
Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau had a great friendship, and appeared in ten movies together. Two classic actors of Golden Age Hollywood.
They were great together
They were supposed to appear in My Fellow Americans together but Matthau had gotten sick, which is why James Garner did it instead. Still a funny movie, though.
@@dan1216 I thought James Garner was going to become the other half of a new "old men" comedy duo, but alas Jack Lemmon passed away not long after Walter Matthau. All three Grumpy Old Men - John, Max, and Pop all passing within two years of each other.
The sequel is definitely worth it as well. John's car is a 68 dodge polara, and grandpa was mickey in Rocky and the Penguin in the original batman show from the 60s
Never heard of that car before
Oh my gosh yes equally hilarious with the same gang back together ❤️
He was also in several Twilight zone episodes. The one about the bookworm who when the world blows up, he's the only survivor. Then he breaks his glasses.
One of these best comedies ever! The sequel is good too.
great to know
It’s one of my favorite movies. You have to see the second one. Grumpier old men, it’s just as good ❤️
I'll check it out!
I highly recommend watching the sequel. I think it's jus as good.
Great to know
This movie is a classic. And so endearing. First movie I ever saw Walter Matthau in was Dennis the Menace. And he was the best Mr Wilson ever.
1st this reaction reminds me of grumpy old men. And then your comment completely reminds me of Dennis the Menace which I also haven't watched in like a decade. I think Christopher Lloyd is better in that than in even Back to the Future in my personal opinion.
"I bet they dont even lock their doors."
When I saw the title I knew you were going to live it. My mom & I saw this one & the sequel in the theater & we laughed our butts off. Anytime you out Walter Matthau & Jack Lemmon together you know it’s gonna be funny but then throw in Burgess Meredith & you’ve got an instant classic!
Thanks for watching!
Lemmon and Matthau were Academy Award winners. Kevin Pollak, the actor who played Max’s son, was one of the main lawyers on Tom Cruise’s team alongside Demi Moore in “A Few Good Men”. Burgess Meredith, the dirty old dad, was the original Penguin in the 1960’s Batman TV series and Sylvester Stallone’s trainer in the movie “Rocky”. The sequel to this is great too!
Oh yeah he was in a Few Good Men
Kevin Pollak has been in so many great movies. He truly is one of the best character actors in the business.
@@laudanum669 I will always see him as Joe Shea in the Apollo 1 episode of the HBO Miniseries "From The Earth to The Moon"
An episode I must always rewatch every January 27, in honor of the late Gus Grissom, Ed White, and Roger Chaffee
The fancy ice fishing hut you showed blew my mind.. I haven't been ice fishing since I was a little kid 30 some years ago, but I remember squatting with my dad in a shack very much like the ones the old men use in this,. Great reaction, as always, man.
Thanks for watching
The IRS guy was played by Buck Henry, not only an actor, but also a writer and producer. Collaborating with Mel Brooks, back in '60s he was co-creator of a classic TV show you might be somewhat aware of called Get Smart.
And a director as well - I think he and Warren Beatty directed "Heaven Can Wait" together.
Fantastic reaction 🤣
Please get to #2 soon!!!
I'm glad you enjoyed it
These 2 had such tremendous chemistry. The sequel is good too and features Sophia Loren as well as All-Margret. Their best movie together is The Odd Couple from 1968. They did a sequel 30 years later that I still LOL at. I love that early scene where the housing guy shows up and because they're friends, Walter Matthau isn't going to rat him out, but because they're both jerks to each other, he's definitely going to talk smack about him with him standing right there.
The woman was Ann Margaret, who was a pretty big star back in the day. She was in Viva Las Vegas with Elvis for one, and The Who's "Tommy" adaptation of their album. She was an all around entertainer. You can't mention Jack and Walter without mentioning their all time classic, "The Odd Couple". A Neil Simon play that became a movie and then a tv show. It's a classic funny movie. Another good comedy with Jack Lemmon is "The Out Of Towners". But it has to be the original Jack Lemmon one, not the crappy remake they did with Steve Martin in the 90's.
I didn't realize you did this! I am so excited to go watch your full reaction now! Please add to your list the sequel, "Grumpier Old Men", I think its better than the original!
Done!
The sequel is just as funny, Jack Lemon & Walter Matthau play off each other so well, dating back to the Odd Couple in 1968 & its sequel in 1998
I'll check it out
These 2 guys are awesome together. I loved the movie “The Odd Couple” which later became a tv sitcom.
The redhead is Ann Margret. Beautiful singer & dancer. Was in love with Elvis for a while. She’s also appeared in some great movies, some with Elvis!
Added
Jack Lemmon was the original movie Felix Unger and Walter Matthau was the original movie Oscar Madison, so together they were Neil Simon's first film Odd Couple. Matthau originated the role of Oscar on Broadway before reprising it for the movie, and Art Carney (Ed Norton on the TV classic, The Honeymooners) originated the role of Felix on Broadway before being replaced for the film by Lemmon. Thomas Lemmon played Felix and Matthew Perry was Oscar in the latest TV incarnation on CBS just a few years ago, but the classic and best-known portrayals were Tony Randall and Jack Klugman on ABC, 1970-75, and again the year this movie was made, in the telefilm, The Odd Couple: Together Again.
3 years after this film--in 1998--Matthau and Lemmon reprised their roles again in The Odd Couple II.
Daryl Hannah, John's daughter, was in "Splash" with Tom Hanks where she plays a mermaid, she was also in Kill Bill, the lady with the eye patch.
Haven't seen those sorry
@@AwesomeUSMovies Splash is definitely one you should watch on your channel. It’s a good movie.
I believe most all the television ads in this movie are Little Caesar's commercials. It was a wild time during that ad campaign cause they were so weird, and hilarious to me.
The second one, Grumpier Old Men is fun too!
Added
Lol - u know Pop! Burgess Meredith was Rocky’s trainer, Mick!!!
OMG I didn't notice that. You are totally right
The sequel is just as funny as the first. One of best sequels ever.
great to know
Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau = Legends
Agreed
Matthau and Lemmon were in several movies together, staring with The Fortune Cookie (1966). Their most notable film was the movie version of Neil Simon's play The Odd Couple (1968). They also did a sequel to this film (Grumpier Old Men) which wasn't quite as good.
Lemmon and Matthau had unimaginable talent individually, however together they were simply perfect, so perfect in fact that they are buried less than 50 feet from each other. You should add the last movie they did together it is a comedy along the lines of this called Out to Sea (1997).
This was the perfect movie for you to watch! One of the funniest movies ever I think.
It was great
Such a funny movie...and the sequel is almost as good, I think...I hope you watch that one too. For another really good Jack Lemmon movie, I highly recommend a film called Mister Roberts from 1955...it stars Jack as well as Henry Fonda and James Cagney. A good choice for a movie with Walter Matthau would be Fail Safe from 1964, which also stars Henry Fonda...small world, eh?
these movies were filmed in my home state of Minnesota.. love it
I love MN
Wabasha, MN, has an annual Grumpy Old Men festival each February. Just celebrated their 30th. 4:40
How fun. What do they do, just yell vulgar comments?
@@AwesomeUSMovies haha,no. Ice fishing contest, hot dish contest, costume contests, chili feed, ice plunge event, drinking, music, etc.
Great reaction! I loved this movie and Walter Mathua & Jack Lemon were two of the best at their craft & always worked well together.
So glad you enjoyed it
It's FUN watching People doing Reactions, this is one of my Favorite Movies, READY to see your Reactions, I've seen a few, you appear to be a COOL normal guy, COOL REACTIONS.
Awesome thank you!
They have such an amazing friendship in this movie. Absolutely love it. 😂
Another funny movie with Walter Matthau was Dennis the Menace
This movie is an amazing classic I wish I had a relationship like those 2 guys
REALLY???? Seems like a hassle at the beginning
@@AwesomeUSMovies Come on, who doesn't know a couple old guys that have known each other all their lives. The one line digs they throw at each other are classic, remember if your friends don't care enough to give you a hard time they really don't care.
@@AwesomeUSMovies I think it'll keep life interesting L o l
Wabasha is located about an hour & a half east of St. Paul, MN. It is on Lake Pepin which is part of the Mississippi River. I grew up across the lake on the Wisconsin side. It is one of the most beautiful areas in the USA.
great to know thanks
If you like seeing Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau together I highly recommend the Odd Couple from 1968
I just found out they did an Odd Couple sequel in '98. Mind blowing. I have to hunt that one down.
@@dianem8544 No, you don't...
@@claymccoy REALLY. You don't recommend it?
@@dianem8544 No, it’s bad.
Looking forward too grumpier old men!! Great reaction..
I'll have to make sure I get to it
I saw this movie in theaters legitimately when it first came out which is really funny because I'm only 35 and I actually always lean more towards movies like these then cartoons that's not to say I didn't have a collection to Disney movies but I had a bunch of these movies when I was a kid too had a weird collection I was a weird kid lol.
You HAVE to watch Grumpier Old Men now. It’s so good. “Mariaaaaa, and suddenly I see, she’s not the B I thought she’d beeeeee”😂
For sure in 2024
Seems LIke Old Times, Tootsie, The Money Pit, Arthur and Midnight Run are great funny movies to check out.
The original Odd Couple. Jack Lemon, Walter Matthau, Ann Margret, Burgess Meridith and Daryl Hanna.
A couple more GREAT Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau movies are the Odd Couple (1968) and the Odd Couple 2 (1998)
My Fellow Americans stars Jack Lemmon and James Garner as feuding ex-presidents. Dan Aykroyd is also in it
Another great movie with Lemon and James Garner is "My Fellow Americans".
The sequel might be even better.
If you remember the tv show from the 70s the Odd Couple, Matthau and Lemon (Max and John) played the movie characters that show was based on.
The red head is Ann Margret. She's been a singer/dancers/actress for many years (watch her in Viva Las Vegas with Elvis) . Still a beautiful woman.
Burgess Merideth is probably best known as Mick in the Rocky movies although he was also the Penguin on the Batman series from the 60s and many other rolls.
Kevin pollack (the son) is a great comedian/actor (the Usual Suspects and Wag The Dog to me a few)
Daryl Hannah (the daughter) was in Splash and Kill.Bill 2 among others
The car is a late? 60s Dodge Polara. It was a full size car that was popular as a cop car for a while.
Jack, Lemmon and Walter Matthau are old friends. Check out the original Odd Couple movie.
Added
The original script for this movie was supposedly written by a 15-year-old from the town of Wabasha, MN. Obviously, it was probably rewritten by professional scriptwriters.
Love that! Now I want to read the original
Classic film that makes you experience many emotions.
You should check these two out back in the day....
The Odd Couple (1968)
Finally got this uploaded again!!! Love these 2 and movies!!!
Yeah it's been on Patreon for awhile but the movie I was supposed to release got delayed
That's Shooter McGavin from Happy Gilmore playing Mike
OMG, you're right... I didn't notice
I never put that together.
This movie has some of the best bloopers ever I think.
With this cast of A list professional comedians & actors many of whom have worked together for decades. They could make another two hour hit comedy movie, w/nothing but what edited out of this movie. Burgess Meredith alone caused take, after take, because the camera crew was laughing so hard they shook the cameras. Add Lemmon & Matthau, Watch out.
This is such a funny movie. Glad you enjoyed it.
You need to watch the second one.
We will!
@@AwesomeUSMovies Can't wait.
This is one or my favorite movies ever and I'm only 35. Just such good humor.
It really is great. A big pain to get it past copyright issues but a great movie. I want to watch the second one next year.
@@AwesomeUSMovies hey thanks for the reply! I really look forward to the sequel's reaction! John Lemmon and Walter Matthau were comedy gold legends.
You edited out most of the scenes with the best character in the entire movie. Pop. Burgess Meredith. He is my spirit animal. Ann Margaret played Ariel. If you aren't aware who that is, she was a huge sex symbol movie star in the 60s. Also nominated for two oscars. Keep watching to grumpier old men and you'll meet another big sex symbol movie star from the 50s and 60s. When you get to part 2, don't edit out Burgess Meredith (,pop,), he's the star of the movie and best part!
This has a sequel that's decent also. But this movie is one of my dad's all time favorites it has cracked me up for as long as I can remember also and I didn't think about it for nearly a decade. Until today! And thank you so much for reminding me of it.
I'm so happy to hear it. Hope you enjoyed my reaction.
Nice i saved the reaction to this movie twice in my watch list.
Just to find it gone in the morning.
Part 2 is just as much fun.
You have seen grandpa Gustafson (Burgess Meridith) in Rocky as Mickey Rocky's trainer.
I now Ann-Margret from viva las Vegas an Elvis Presley movie.
Thanks had fun watching this reaction.
Sorry it took so long to get approved
Great duo. They've done 10 movies together in their careers.
Wow that's a lot
Filmed here in Minnesota ❤
Burgess Meredith is hilarious in this!!
Movie recommendations: Some Like it Hot, The Apartment, Charade, Rear Window, Oscar…there are so many great movies out there
Please don’t give the chocolate 🍫!! I knew u would laugh at this movie for sure! ✌🏻☀️
Love to see you Grumpier old men!
added
I’m sure I’m not the only one who requested this movie. I hope you have “Grumpier Old Men” coming soon!
Will do
I'm surprised that you didn't recognize "Shooter" from Happy Gilmore
No I totally missed him
The sequel, "Grumpier Old Men" is also worth a watch, some say it's a better that this one.
I'll check it out
I can't wait for your verdict on whether or not Gremlins is a Christmas movie.
I'm so glad you finally watched this one! The second movie is definitely a great one too.
Can't wait!
I'm okay LOL also nowhere near first and nowhere near last, between first and last LOL
Classic!!!!! Hope you're going to do the sequel. Equally funny!😎😝😂😂😂👍
Great to know
I LOVE Grumpy Old Men! The sequel is so good too!
Yup need to watch that one too

Oh yeah, I loved that one. Will watch the 2nd for sure
There are so few people reacting to movies and tv well. You’re such a great man and I look forward to your vids
Well thank you sir, appreciate that. Tell your friends ;-)
@@AwesomeUSMovies It’s kind of you to assume I have friends
My parents went to see lawyers. The bank and the lawyers strung them along while collecting money and then the judge said the court had no power over the bank. They took my parents house and they’ve been living with my wife and I for a year and a half.
It's great that you're there for them
You need to see " The Egg and I" ( 1947)
YOu should watch the Sunshine Boys. Walter Matthau and George Burns. One of the funniest movies there is!!!! Trust me.
Both movies are classic l
You have to watch the second one, sooo good
Will do
It’s a winter set movie.
100%
In good ole Hollywood garden hoses work all year round. And the fish smell rotten even in a cold car
right!!! Frozen fish don't smell
The video made it up👍👍
Hilarious and heartwarming
Such a sweet reaction.
Thank you so much, I loved this. Need to watch the 2nd one.
Greeting from Germany! I like your movie reactions and I wanna react you to nearly unknown movies: Moving Violations (1985), From The Hip (1987) and The Super (1991)
If you haven't seen Dennis the Mennace with Walter Matthau you must!
Added to my list, thanks for the suggestion.
She used to be Elvis' girlfriend
Cool
Is it just me or do most people in the United States pronounce roof like it sounds like how dogs talk saying ruff...
Another great Jack Lemmon film is 'Some like it hot' check it out :D
