6:27 I always joke that this is the longest song in the world. He starts it when he's like 10-12 years old, and is still singing it when he's an adult. LOL
28:12 Regarding what you said about Rebecca Ferguson not singing the song we'll here shortly...Loren Allred was hired to teach Rebecca Ferguson proper breathing so she could perform the song. After some tedious rehearsals, Rebecca suggested that they have Loren actually record the song and she (Rebecca) would just lip-sync it for the film. "Since I'm going to lip-sync for the film anyway, why don't you just have this angel sing it instead?"
I thoroughly enjoyed watching you experience this movie with your whole heart! You can't help but sing and cry while watching this extraordinary film! Great reaction!
This musical got me through 5 months of chemo, 30 sessions of radiotherapy, surgery and two years of adjunct treatments. I was fortunate enough to see Hugh Jackman in Auckland, when he came to New Zealand, with his An evening with Hugh Jackman show and his guest star was Keala Settle, and her song reached me on a whole new level as I had ugly scars and felt mutilated from my multiple surgeries. I still listen to the cd in my car a couple of times a week.
I know exactly how you feel. When I saw it in the theaters, I was a total MESS. And each time I watch it at home, I can never get through it without crying at least 3 times hehe. The songs, the cinematography, the cast. All was exquisite.
LOL I'm surprised anyone would be shocked Zendaya can sing .. she's put out an album and has 10million followers on Spotify. Her song Replay has 200million listens. She's a Disney kid .. they can do everything.
9:15 Yep. it won the following awards: 1. AARP Movies for Grownups Awards - Best Grownup Love Story 2. Billboard Music Awards - Top Soundtrack 3. Casting Society of America - Big Budget - Comedy 4.

Teen Choice Awards - Choice Drama Movie Actor - Zac Efron 13. Teen Choice Awards - Choice Movie Ship - Zac Efron and Zendaya
This film was released in an EXTREMELY difficult year of releases to be recognized by any major awards. That being said, the song from this film, This is me, won a Grammy and a Golden Globe it was also nominated for the Oscar.
I love the ending, when he sings and realizes that his family is "all he would ever want, and all he would ever need" and the journey of life its the greatest show
35:50 Cool set design here for the song "Rewrite the Stars". When you look at the way the sawdust is laid out on the floor when they show it from above, you'll notice that makes a picture of the moon.
I love love loved watching your reaction! I agree, we need another film like this now. Listening to "This is Me" after maybe a year of not hearing it made me feel like I wasn't alone. This movie has its own kind of magic that makes you feel like you can do anything, like you can be a part of making the world brighter, and people will come together and join you. Your reaction also made me feel that way ❤️ thank you
I'm so glad I watched this when it just came out. Hadn't heard the songs yet, so the songs hit hard when I saw this movie. Wow! Love your reaction Johnathan. Seeing you so touched by the movie ❤ "STOP TEXTING ME!!" 😂😂
Your reaction was so amazing! Thank you for showing vulnerability. From now on is also my favorite song from this movie. I felt your emotion in that part. So touching!
This movie made me very emotional and teary-eyed when I first discovered it in 2021, but watching YOU watching the movie made me cry even MORE! I've never seen any of your videos before this one. I enjoyed it and will be back to check out more!
I saw this in theaters with the whole fam. We were running late, so we ended up in the front row to one side, craning necks to see it. I don't remember anything but crying through most of it because I was seeing on screen how music hits me. When the horses pranced on in rhythm to the song, I actually yelled out loud. Combine that with This is Me and From Now On (Never Enough didn't impress me much), and it was my own personal fever dream. Love it!
We custom created and applied on set several of “The Oddities,” (Hugh’s circus troupe’s) featured-performance center-ring wigs for this film. It was our studio’s first official industry job. This was wonderful to watch with you🥂.
Interesting that the world famous opera singer is tge only lead actor not really singing. But ironically, Ferguson actually does her own singing in another film with Jackman called Reminiscence.
Never watched your reactions before until this past week, with Flash Gordon and Greatest Showman, two of my personal favorite movies in life. The Hawkman-Ajax battle may be one of my favorite movie scenes growing up for all time, even over Star Wars, and Greatest Showman feels like almost a flawless movie to me. My wife and I saw Greatest Showman together in the movie theater and bought the soundtrack digitally on the car ride home. I look forward to watching more reactions from you, but that was a perfect start for me!
I would very much suggest Tick Tick Boom with Andrew Garfield in terms of other musicals! It's such an amazing movie about Jonathan Larson and his work. And lovely reaction to this! Greatest Showman is def the movie that sparked my wish to wanting to get back into dance, the choreography is intoxicating!
This is my absolute favorite movie musical, and your reaction is so genuine. I am very excited that it is coming to the stage. I saw the film on opening night on my birthday, and I cried multiple times.
I bought this movie on digital but for no reason didn’t watch it until like 9 months later. And I first watched it on a flight and caught myself grooving and moving in my seat. This is me is so powerful had to dab my eyes slyly so the person sitting next to me didn’t see hahahah.
I LOVE musicals! I’m not a singer, but I do love to sing. I cried when I first heard This is Me, simply because it spoke to me. I wasn’t in theatre because it was strictly only the same few people the last 4 years of high school. I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone else cry to this film as much as I did. 😂 I would say this is my new fav musical (Grease is now second.) Musicals are my favorite movie genre, but I won’t actually tell anyone that because most people I know just don’t understand why unfortunately.
I’ve been bingeing your reviews (I was sucked in by Krull, a favorite of mine!), and you are quickly becoming one of my favorite reactors. I hope people continue to watch, and you explore more musical and 80s fantasy films!
Love. This. Movie. The first time I heard about this film was in November of 2017. I was sitting in my local cinema, waiting for ‘Justice League’ to begin. The preview’s are running and the music for “This is Me” starts. I was mesmerized from then on. I spent the next two hours and change thinking not of Batman and Wonder Woman and Superman but of popcorn, peanuts and the center ring. I rushed home after the show and found my girlfriend sitting on the couch, her laptop open in front of her. Before she could barely utter a word I commandeered her computer and brought up the trailer for ‘The Greatest Showman’ up on RUclips. She loved it as much as I did. For the next month it was all we could talk about. The day it opened we were nestled in our seats in that auditorium with no idea how we were about to be blown away. Afterwards, before we even made it to our car I had the soundtrack downloaded. Absolutely love, love, LOVE this movie and I’m so glad you did too, Jonathan!
This is one of my favorite musicals. Thank you for the reaction! Here are 12 more favorites I'd love to see you react to (in alphabetical order): Beauty and the Beast (if you don't mind animated), Enchanted, Fame, Godspell, Grease, Hamilton, Mary Poppins, Moulin Rouge, My Fair Lady, Singin' in the Rain, The Sound of Music, and The Wizard of Oz.
You missed it but after Barnum talks to the girls at night and he’s at his desk, he holds an apple on his desk to represent him as a kid that someone cared about him/the lady giving him the apple
Your reaction was so good! Please do more musicals! I recommend La la land and Dear Evan Hansen if you haven’t seen them already, they’re also written by Pasek and Paul.
I *love* this movie. Musical films for you to maybe watch? Off the top of my head: 1. The 2007 version of Hairspray 2. Hamilton (it's on Disney Plus) 3. Tick Tick Boom (Another *great* movie with a great cast) 4. Sound of Music (Don't let the reputation fool you, it's a great and important story) 5. Sister Act (I have never met someone who hates Sister Act) Most of the musicals I grew up with were animated though.
Saw it 18 times in the theater, five times were singalongs. I'd go right now if they brought it back. It was one of the only movies in history whose box office numbers consistently went up weekend after weekend for two months. They called it the little movie that could. It just got bigger and bigger.
There is a behind the scenes of Hugh Jackman singing from now on when he was going to have someone sing for him cause some sort of infection or whatever that the doctor told him no singing but he sang anyway
"Grease" is a great musical! So is "Singin' in the Rain." The Danny Kaye comedy film, "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty" (1947) has a few musical numbers in it. And last but not least, "White Christmas is another great musical. All of these would make great reaction videos!
I feel like Barnum was promising the life he was giving Charity to his father in law. It’s also interesting on how Charitys dad says she will come back from his poorness when it’s actually from having too much
Fantastic movie. top 5 Hugh Jackman movies. top 3 musicals. top 10 lightly based on true events movies. one of ten movies that make me cry no matter how many times I watch it
in the movie, hugh's character said he wanted to make people react to the siblings being of stage. knowing that they would like people of color in the show.
Jonathan thank you for watching this with us. I love your heart and your insightful reactions. This movie has always been a special watch for me! As a poor kid who were into a poor gay😂, I feel like I could relate so much to parts of story and the music and visuals were perfection
Zendaya does this little move right at the end of the final number that is so hot I literally fell in love with her right there and then. Only takes a second and she’s never let me down since. What a fantastically talented performer.
Nice to see the perspective of someone who really enjoyed this movie when I myself didn’t like it that much. The songs were 🔥 because Pasek and Paul don’t really miss, and I can watch it just for that. The singing is great, the acting is great, the dancing and choreography are great. The cinematography is pretty good, so are the costumes and sets. But the plot just isn’t there for me, and the characters aren’t written well enough for the story to be this thin. Even setting aside the apologist Barnum revisionism being bad (people do also complain about the Jenny Lind slander, but I’m not mad about that. She was horribly racist, so they can go ahead and lie about a real person being a home wrecker if they want) some dude who was objectively exploiting people running around pretending he’s helping them is not compelling to me at all, and if was over half of what was happening. All this to say, it was super interesting to see that other people seem to feel very differently about the characters being fleshed out enough to pull this off.
You need to watch the 1986 TV movie "Barnum" starring Burt Lancaster. To me that's the best bio-pic about Barnum. You'll be amazed at it's style of storytelling, I can't think of any other film that does it like that and so well. I don't know how much is fictionalized, but it's capitvating regardless.
so the one singing never enough she was lip singing, the person didn’t wanna be up front on screen so she sang it behind scenes. her name is loren, she actually performed it live with her singing it on britain’s got talent. check it out!
The woman that sings this song in the theater is not the same woman who actually sang the song she was lip, singing it go on AGT, and you can find Lauren Conrad, who is actually the singer of the song
Buenas... He disfrutado tanto de tu reacción a una de mis películas favoritas, que me encantaría que reaccionaras a cualquiera de estas 3 opciones, diferentes pero maravillosas en su género musical, Nº1 Yentl, con Barbara S. Nº2 La pequeña tienda de los horrores/Little shop off horrors 1986 con Rick Moranis, Nº3 o Grease o Live action de Beauty and the Beast, me encantará ver tu reacción de cualquiera de ellas, Jonathan... Gracias, tienes una suscriptora más, aunque creí al suscribirme que era solo tu canal, hasta que entré... En todo caso, muchas gracias.
Just found your channel. Great reaction to an awesome musical. Can you react to The Bodyguard? Not a lot of people have and it has the best music in any movie ever
Fact: Jenny Lynd & Barnum only had a business relationship. He never cheated on either one of his wives. Also, a good musical to watch is Tick Tick BOOM. Lin Manuel Miranda's directorial debut. Andrew Garfield is amazing in it. Glad I found ur channel 😊
If you want a good cry, Gifted starring Chris Evans and McKenna Grace is on Disney+ and is possibly my favorite movie of all time. Watched it for the first time on a plane and cried so much the flight attendant asked if I was watching Marley and Me
Fun Fact: Zac and Zendaya both did all of their trapeze skills and didn’t have any stunt actors
There's a great clip of Hugh and the musical cast pitching this movie to the studio in New York that's a must watch if you love the film
I agree wholeheartedly.
That's absolutely a MUST watch
There’s multiple. He performed a song, as did Keala.
he actually says during this video that he saw it already.
@@LexFlorez do you know what it's called?
6:27 I always joke that this is the longest song in the world. He starts it when he's like 10-12 years old, and is still singing it when he's an adult. LOL
lmaoo
the reaction at the "From Now On" is sooooo accurate, I was also bawling my eyes out as well 😭😭😭😭
23:39 The bartender here is the guy that choreographed this film.
47:52 "screw you movie" I felt the same way. 😂😂
28:12 Regarding what you said about Rebecca Ferguson not singing the song we'll here shortly...Loren Allred was hired to teach Rebecca Ferguson proper breathing so she could perform the song.

A lot of people react to this, but it is nice to see someone who shows genuine empathy to the plights of movies like this.
I know exactly how you feel. When I saw it in the theaters, I was a total MESS. And each time I watch it at home, I can never get through it without crying at least 3 times hehe. The songs, the cinematography, the cast. All was exquisite.

Word. Her dance breaks are legend.
that was such a cute and relatable reaction😂💕 im very happy youtube recommended this to me

Pasek and Paul know how to layer a song. Their harmonies, percussion, reprises are stunning.
Watching people who love musicals watch musicals makes my heart happy 😊
Maybe Matilda the Musical next?
The Greatest Showman has just had the green light for stage, and I can not wait!
Can’t wait!!
The man who played the bartender choreographed the scene at the bar between Hugh Jackman and Zac Efron.
I loved your reaction so much. I cried with you. It's so amazing to see someone cry just like I cry😂😂
Can't wait to see you react to more movies☺️
35:50 Cool set design here for the song "Rewrite the Stars". When you look at the way the sawdust is laid out on the floor when they show it from above, you'll notice that makes a picture of the moon.

That's so cool guys! Must have been an amazing experience!
Not me crying with Johnathan to The Greatest Showman at 2am haha
Love this reaction!
23:20 my fav song :D And home again has my favourite choreo, with that beautiful acapella near the end.
@@lorettabes4553 you mean From now on lol but ughh I love that song smmmm
Interesting that the world famous opera singer is tge only lead actor not really singing. But ironically, Ferguson actually does her own singing in another film with Jackman called Reminiscence.
❤❤❤ loved your honest emotional reaction! Had me tearing up right along with you, you got an INSTANT follow from me. Can’t wait to watch more! ❤❤❤
49:09 - Carlyle, is playing the role of Bailey; Barnum and Bailey’s Circus. His family wouldn’t release his name, which is dumb.

I haven't laughed so hard watching a reaction video before. Your reactions are very funny and relatable.
Thanks, Jonathan! 🎪 Michael Gracey directed this one. 🔸 I bet you had such stage presence in your musical theatre days.
I’ve been bingeing your reviews (I was sucked in by Krull, a favorite of mine!), and you are quickly becoming one of my favorite reactors. I hope people continue to watch, and you explore more musical and 80s fantasy films!

I remember watching this in the movie theaters, that intro song.. I will never forget, it was epic
you are the first reaction that I have watch that called the him buying the house and mention the freaking zebra's pulling their carriage!!! LOL
Yeah this movie makes me sob every time I watch it. Your reaction was wonderful
This is one of my favorite musicals. Thank you for the reaction! Here are 12 more favorites I'd love to see you react to (in alphabetical order): Beauty and the Beast (if you don't mind animated), Enchanted, Fame, Godspell, Grease, Hamilton, Mary Poppins, Moulin Rouge, My Fair Lady, Singin' in the Rain, The Sound of Music, and The Wizard of Oz.

"Stop texting me!"... such a relatable exclamation during an emotional movie haha.
I *love* this movie. Musical films for you to maybe watch? Off the top of my head:
1. The 2007 version of Hairspray
2. Hamilton (it's on Disney Plus)
3. Tick Tick Boom (Another *great* movie with a great cast)
4. Sound of Music (Don't let the reputation fool you, it's a great and important story)
5. Sister Act (I have never met someone who hates Sister Act)
Most of the musicals I grew up with were animated though.
and My Fair Lady

Hugh Jackman is just as incredible live. I saw him perform in the boy from Oz and he was phenomenal
There is a behind the scenes of Hugh Jackman singing from now on when he was going to have someone sing for him cause some sort of infection or whatever that the doctor told him no singing but he sang anyway
Amazing reaction! I cry everytime I watch this movie. Love it to pieces!! ❤
This is the same reaction I had the first time I saw this. I still tear up and I’ve seen it like 20 times lol.
3:16 - it’s that crip walking horse from the Olympics…. If you don’t know, look it up- it’s hilarious 😂
"Grease" is a great musical! So is "Singin' in the Rain." The Danny Kaye comedy film, "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty" (1947) has a few musical numbers in it. And last but not least, "White Christmas is another great musical. All of these would make great reaction videos!
Omg grease yes!
Not me crying with some random dude on RUclips over the emotions this movie unleashes. When the throat ache comes you know the cry is gonna be amazing
34:06 So emotional. I’m not crying 😢❤
You are the first reactor literally cried at from now on the same reaction as me LMAO it hit so hardddddd I got u
I'm glad I found your channel!!
I feel like Barnum was promising the life he was giving Charity to his father in law. It’s also interesting on how Charitys dad says she will come back from his poorness when it’s actually from having too much
😂😂😂 your great, love the emotion 😂🎉❤
You and I have the same reaction, starting especially "From Now On" up to the ending. I hope you watched Wicked. Another tear jerker musical.
Barnum didn’t kiss Jenny. Jenny kissed him he didn’t kiss back. He asked “what was that?” “That was goodbye”. He went for a hug if seemed
Dude, I would love to see you watch Hugh Jackman again in the X-Men series. He's perfect for that role 👌.
Great reaction. I love when Zendaya sings she has 2 songs from Euphoria that are really good too
Fantastic movie. top 5 Hugh Jackman movies. top 3 musicals. top 10 lightly based on true events movies. one of ten movies that make me cry no matter how many times I watch it
Who is the emotional man. Subbed. Loved it.
I remind my kids to... never dance in rooftops. Every time I see that scene. They laugh. But I'm serious.
well this was a freaking blast
in the movie, hugh's character said he wanted to make people react to the siblings being of stage. knowing that they would like people of color in the show.
Johnathan the show is one that has things to teach us so many lessons. But I have enjoyed watching the movie with you.
Some nice musical movies: The Producers, My Fair Lady, Singing in the Rain.
I Love your reaction!!!
Jonathan thank you for watching this with us. I love your heart and your insightful reactions.
This movie has always been a special watch for me! As a poor kid who were into a poor gay😂, I feel like I could relate so much to parts of story and the music and visuals were perfection
Zendaya does this little move right at the end of the final number that is so hot I literally fell in love with her right there and then. Only takes a second and she’s never let me down since. What a fantastically talented performer.
I love that you immediately knew disaster was coming🤣

Great reaction. Try "Chicago". Won't make you cry, but will blow you away.
The woman that sings this song in the theater is not the same woman who actually sang the song she was lip, singing it go on AGT, and you can find Lauren Conrad, who is actually the singer of the song
For some older charm, do Hello Dolly. Very good Musical!
I'd love for you to react to The Last Five Years. I've never seen a reaction to this film and it's a favourite of mine. I'm sure you'd love it!
They both did their own stuff in the scene as well, and rewrite the stars
Buenas...

Just found your channel. Great reaction to an awesome musical. Can you react to The Bodyguard? Not a lot of people have and it has the best music in any movie ever
Fact: Jenny Lynd & Barnum only had a business relationship. He never cheated on either one of his wives. Also, a good musical to watch is Tick Tick BOOM. Lin Manuel Miranda's directorial debut. Andrew Garfield is amazing in it. Glad I found ur channel 😊
The bartender is actually the one who choreography at the scene
10/10 would watch you watch a musical again 🎉
If you want a good cry, Gifted starring Chris Evans and McKenna Grace is on Disney+ and is possibly my favorite movie of all time. Watched it for the first time on a plane and cried so much the flight attendant asked if I was watching Marley and Me
I heard that they did use some of the original PT Barnum costumes. The Greatest Showman 2.
i think this is my fav movie so far
Yes that is Zac Efron & Zendaya actually singing 'Rewrite The Stars'
