"I saw this in a movie about a bus that had to SPEED around the city, keeping its SPEED over fifty, and if its SPEED dropped, it would explode! I think it was called 'The Bus That Couldn’t Slow Down.'" - Homer Simpson
@@carlossevilla2978 "Hello? I've just shot somebody, and I did it on purpose! ...I said, I have murdered a man and I want to confess!" One of my favorite movie quotes & Dance doing it was unexpected but for me one of the best things of the movie. Wish he would try stand-up comedy 😃😃😃😃
"we're at the airport" 'yeah, so?' "I already seen the airport..." Making the passengers memorable with small screen time is a testament to the excellent writing.
Suggestions: - Demolition Man - Con Air - The Rock (not the actor, the action flick with Sean Connery and Nicolas Cage) - Face Off (A John Woo movie) - Replacement Killers (not a John Woo movie, but one with his "muse". The badass Chow Yun Fat) - Under Siege 1 and 2 - Cliffhanger, Daylight and Assassins (yeah, more Stallone movies)
I remember how impressed I was with this movie when I saw it. The little things like Jack casually stepping off the bus while in motion onto that tactical vehicle, just a legit feeling of reality and energy. Really impressed how Keanu Reeves put in the physical work and built up his body instead of phoning it in.
@Patrick Whelpley I love that scene! I worked in a little theater company once and showed a good friend this movie. Luckily, she had the same taste in movies as me and adored it as much as I did, and "Swinging on a Star" became something we just naturally started singing whenever we were working on a project together. And "different" is an excellent way to describe it. I categorize this movie with The 'Burbs - they're both strange little movies that, if you find someone else who loves it too, it's often a great early sign of compatibility.
True, I’d rate them around the same, although I’d say that “The Fugitive” is more of a drama-thriller movie; whereas “Speed” is more of an action-thriller movie.
@@BirdsElopeWithTheSun09 "First you think of a story that has already been done. Then you come up with a name no one could possibly like... What were you thinking!?"
the fact that The Fugitive was nominated for 7 oscars including a best picture, shows that action movies were on their peak at that time. back in the day movies used to be made by real passion and talent, instead of just for a quick buck and full of cgi fest
Don't forget the 80s w/ Die Hard, Aliens, Predator, Terminator, RoboCop, The Road Warrior, First Blood, Lethal Weapon, Top Gun, The Killer, Police Story, Indiana Jones, etc...
There was a period in my life where I was living in brownstone at Purdue with absolutely NOTHING to do and a grand total of two.....TWO movies for my VHS player. "Midnight Run" (another great film, if you haven't seen it) and "Speed". I have seen this movie.......many....MANY times.
This was the movie that introduced me to Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock. I was five years old when it came out, and I never saw till I was a teenager. To me, Speed is one of the greatest movies of the 90's.
One of the all time great action films that still looks as good today as the day it released. And the CGI for the bus jump still looks 100% realistic. Great job.
Some great 80s/90s action films I want to see Jeremy review: Lethal Weapon series Point Break Rambo series Commando Total Recall Last Action Hero True Lies Bloodsport Hard Target GoldenEye RoboCop Starship Troopers The Mummy Blade Also, a series that I'm shocked Jeremy has never talked about, Indiana Jones.
@@321Isotope Last Action Hero was ahead of its time. Heat is an awesome movie, definitely my favourite performance from Al Pacino and Val Kilmer, but wouldn't call it an action movie, despite the shootout scene which is perhaps the greatest sounding gun sequence ever put to film.
Dude, Speed is an R-rated my mom didn't mind me watching at 6 years old and I've watched it so many times I know it by heart. Had it on VHS, got it on DVD with deleted scenes and I will ALWAYS love it. What makes it simple is it's 3 Act structure. Act 1 = Elevator, Act 2 = Bus and Act 3 = Train. This movie's structure is also the method in which my story I'm writing will be written. Each of my 3 acts will have 3 acts to keep the growth and development going. It's superhero stories plus 80s-90s action movies plus sci-fantasy all rolled into one. The story is called Blue Shogun, be on the look-out for it.
"I saw this in a movie about a bus that had to SPEED around a city, keeping its SPEED over fifty, and if its SPEED dropped, it would explode! I think it was called, 'The Bus That Couldn't Slow Down
Yep. I always thought they had a thing for each other and they should date. Turns out they both secretly liked each other but they just recently confessed this last year on the Ellen show. Lol. Dang haha
hmm, that brings to mind a review by Jeremy of 'The Taking of Pelham 1-2-3" would be nice. No , not that one - the one with the real trains and Matthau and Shaw.
Guys who give Jeremy a hard time about his hair, I would bet money they're bald or balding. Any man would kill for a full head of hair and a strong hairline like Jeremys!
Holy shit Jeremy.....great analysis. I grew up young with this one, and I feel the same way, I'm always in the mood for speed. Because of the way it flows. Love this review and thank you. Be safe and take care homie.
I was in first grade when this came out. I’ll never forget, but I couldn’t watch the movie until my homework was done, so my babysitter did it for me because she was so excited to watch it.
Crazy story. The freeway was built in my city, I drive it everyday. This caught my attention as a 9 year old. I got a bootleg of it and watched it about 259 times and it became my number 1 movie of all time.
I saw THE TERMINATOR at age 8 and have watched it more then 259 times still my favorite movie nothing has come close. My top 3 is THE TERMINATOR other 2 slots are empty. Never gets old does it ?
Speed is definitely up there as one of my 90s favorites along with Starship Troopers. We still own it on VHS! I showed my girlfriend who didn't really get to experience 90s action movies growing up and she loved it 😊. Great review too btw 👍
Speed was the very first R-rated film I was allowed to watch. It gave me such bragging rights that I was allowed to see this film. It also began my mother’s lifeline crush on Keanu Reeves, which she still has 26 years later. Oh yeah, the film is pretty awesome.
Dreadfully miscast in Dracula and In Much Ado About Nothing between the two, and if you haven't seen either I highly recommend keeping it that way. Dracula was full of awful casting all around, among other things, and he's such a sore thumb in MAAN it hurts every time he's on screen.
I watched this movie so many times as a kid lol, that's why I watch every keanu reeves movies at the theaters. The dude impacted my childhood as a role model.
90s film industry: "we need our movies feel real" 2000-2010 film industry: "we need movies to feel like fantasy" 2010-2020 film industry: *wipes ass with scripts* "just make everything CGI and we'll make billions" Jeremy: "duhn duhn duh duhn wubba wubba wuh duhn duhn duh duhn"
This has been my fave movie since the 1st time I saw it in the theater. I loved it so much I bought it on VHS and then on DVD. I haven't gotten it on Blu-ray tho since I'm holding out to get it as a download... Btw Jeremy - I'm liking the hair! You can tell how long we've been shut in by Jeremy's hair growth journey :)
Could you imagine telling someone when Speed came out that one day Keanu Reeves would be a National treasure in not one but two amazing action franchises?
This was the movie that I watched at a high-end home theatre store at the mall as a 15yr old- my first experience of Laserdisc and DTS Surround sound through a monster Yamaha AVR - awesometacular indeed!!
@Jeremy if nothing else good comes from the awful Covid 19, if it let's you review some classics of the 80's 90's and even older fair then it is a benefit for all if the fans of the channel good Sir.
Finally some good appreciation for the movie I still remember the first time watching it about a year ago and man have I watched it 4 times since then The premise, simple The protagonist, relatable The action, amazing!! This film got me the biggest adrenaline rush I've ever had watching a movie!!
I remember watching this when I was young on laser disc. Still to this day I have moments watching the film when you needed to switch the disc over on the opposite side to watch the rest of the film back then but watching now I’m like wait I needed to switch sides. Speed is awesome and my god the soundtrack for this film makes this movie so much better. There are moments I’m driving on the freeway humming the main theme to myself switching lanes and just getting by. Stay safe out there folks. Jeremy you rock brother
I’d love it if Jeremy or another reviewer tackled one of the BIONICLE movies, either as an outsider or someone who knows about the lore. Great review, I’ve actually never seen the beginning of Speed. I miss Dennis Hopper
Speed is such an underrated movie. Saw it as a kid when it came out on VHS (I remember my friend's parents went to see it in the theater, while us kids went to a different screen to watch The Mask, I believe) FUN FACT: When I saw The Mask in theaters, the scene where Stanley Ipkiss is in jail telling his dog to find a new home, I cried. I was a child, lol.
This movie has one of my favorite one-liners after killing the bad guy. "I'm the guy with the plan! What are you gonna do??? I'm smarter than you Jack! I'M SMARTER THAN YOU! ...AHHHHH" * SPLOOT * "Yeah? WELL, I'M TALLER!"
There is at least one out of three 90s movies that I would love to see you do a review on. Seven: A "modern" noir detective movie with a great cast. Good Will Hunting: Damon and Williams gave us chills The Little Giants: A kind hearted movie about underdog kids that can overcome, and also no one makes movies like that anymore.
Jeremy, don't forget about that incredible scene where the bus jumps/flys dude! That scene set tthe bar for all movies that do that like *GONE IN 60 SECONDS* & *DARK KNIGHT RISES* for example
One of my all-time favorites! Very glad you reviewed it. I recommend the Nicolas Cage "Beige Volvo Trilogy": The Rock, Con Air, and Face Off (or at least which of them you haven't reviewed already)
Sooooo. Are You gonna review Star Wars Clone Wars s7 when that's all set? I'd really like to hear your thoughts on it. Especially the finale cause OH MY GOD....just....Christ. So many emotions.
metalgamer 817 Very much so. We’re in that Siege of Mandalore storyline that connects into Episode 3 and referenced by The Mandalorian. And you can feel the clock ticking down to Order 66
@@benwasserman8223 yooooo the reunion for Anakin and Ahsoka is painful and I love it. And AHSOKA. VS. DARTH MAUL MMMMMM that is just some TASTY SHIT lol And yes the tension is just slowly rising and the ending to Phantom Apprentice was just BONE chilling....oof
Ribotto Studios You can tell Maul is legit terrified about what Sidious is about to do. He’s ironically the only one trying to stop what’s about to happen, albeit for selfish reasons
Not completely 90s, but I would love to hear your thoughts on the Lethal Weapon films. To me, the first is just as much an action classic as Die Hard is, and just as much a Christmas movie to boot!
I saw this in a double feature with Beverly Hills Cop 3. Me and my friend were both fans of the first two BHC movies. We'd heard the new one wasn't good, but we figured, "Hey, how bad can it be?" ... The theater shows Speed first, which we knew very little about. We thought it was going to be the worst of the two. We're thinking, "Well, at least we'll get the crappy one out of the way first." It completely blew us away. It's still one of my top ten action movies. And then BHC3 comes on. Less said about that the better. But I will always be grateful to BHC3 and that theater for showing that double feature, because without it I probably wouldn't have seen Speed on the big screen, and that would have sucked.
Speed is cinema perfection!! Thanks for doing it justice! You even highlighted that killer score! Now I’ll be super disappointed if you don’t follow this up with a Con-Air review!!

@@MsNotzi *TOTALLY DUDE!*
Keanu didnt want to comeback for the sequel. He really is so good at dodging bullets
Good one.
He didn't even want to do this one, his agent took forever to convince him. Keanu said 'I'll do it, but I refuse to be involved in a possible sequel'.

"The Fugitive" with Harrison Ford. In my opinion, it is up there with "Speed".
I know that Harrison ford is supposed to be the main protagonist, but Tommy Lee Jones steals the entire show, and it's amazing
@@lukajaklic4729 Tommy Lee Jones won an Academy Award for his performance in The Fugitive... He is rightfully deserved it.
Andreas Katsulas plays a great villain.
True, I’d rate them around the same, although I’d say that “The Fugitive” is more of a drama-thriller movie; whereas “Speed” is more of an action-thriller movie.
Absolutely!!

This was the movie that introduced me to Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock. I was five years old when it came out, and I never saw till I was a teenager. To me, Speed is one of the greatest movies of the 90's.
Sylvester Stallone's Cliffhanger is one of my favourites.
Demolition Man is really good too
The opening is a killer!
Diehard in the mountains.
One of the all time great action films that still looks as good today as the day it released.
And the CGI for the bus jump still looks 100% realistic. Great job.
A detail I’ve always loved about this movie is the back of the bus says
“Money means everything?.... yeah, right.”
I never noticed that! Nice touch!

A 90 movie you should review is “broken arrow” with John Travolta

Most definitely review “The Fugitive” and “The Rock.”
He already has reviewed the rock
The Fugitive is a great movie
Independence Day, Armageddon, Con Air, Stargate
2:38 Camron's thinking he should've taken his dad's Ferrari that day.
Nice Alan Ruck reference👍
That wasn't Johnny Cage, that was Cameron Frye! Unless that was a joke that completely flew over my head.
Yeah, Alan Ruck not Linden Ashby
It was a joke. Linden Ashby will always be Johnny Cage to me.
This review never went below 55mph you nailed it again JJ.
Really forgot how AWESOME the opening swat/elevator opening scene is. Everyone remembers the Wildcat moment, the jump, etc but the opening is awesome.
Keanu when he was not quite Neo yet but passed Bill and Ted.
Dreadfully miscast in Dracula and In Much Ado About Nothing between the two, and if you haven't seen either I highly recommend keeping it that way. Dracula was full of awful casting all around, among other things, and he's such a sore thumb in MAAN it hurts every time he's on screen.

This was the movie that I watched at a high-end home theatre store at the mall as a 15yr old- my first experience of Laserdisc and DTS Surround sound through a monster Yamaha AVR - awesometacular indeed!!
@Jeremy if nothing else good comes from the awful Covid 19, if it let's you review some classics of the 80's 90's and even older fair then it is a benefit for all if the fans of the channel good Sir.
So when’s the Speed 2: Cruise Control review coming?
Pretty sure that will earn the coveted dog shit rating!
Oh God, no. Even people who don't watch movies regularly know that Speed 2 is Dogshit.
That's a movie someone would have to pay me to watch.
@@LupusNoir I've always felt that was more of a "good time if you're drunk" movie. It's a terrible sequel, but an okay standalone movie.
Is it worth watching even if I'm bored out of my mind? Still to this day havent even watched it.
Finally some good appreciation for the movie
I still remember the first time watching it about a year ago and man have I watched it 4 times since then
The premise, simple
The protagonist, relatable
The action, amazing!!
This film got me the biggest adrenaline rush I've ever had watching a movie!!
Great review. Love your enthusiasm. Now I have to go and watch that movie again.
I remember watching this when I was young on laser disc. Still to this day I have moments watching the film when you needed to switch the disc over on the opposite side to watch the rest of the film back then but watching now I’m like wait I needed to switch sides. Speed is awesome and my god the soundtrack for this film makes this movie so much better. There are moments I’m driving on the freeway humming the main theme to myself switching lanes and just getting by. Stay safe out there folks. Jeremy you rock brother
_I'd like to take his _*_face...off!_*
-Castor Troy
*I'm Castor Troy!*
-Castor Troy
WEEEEEE! What a predicament!
I could eat a peach for hours
It’s like looking in a mirror, only not.
YESSSS!!! I'm Castor Troy.....
I'M CASTOR TROY!!!
I’d love it if Jeremy or another reviewer tackled one of the BIONICLE movies, either as an outsider or someone who knows about the lore.
Great review, I’ve actually never seen the beginning of Speed. I miss Dennis Hopper
You've become a nostalgia dopamine high through pixels. Love ya.
Speed is such an underrated movie. Saw it as a kid when it came out on VHS (I remember my friend's parents went to see it in the theater, while us kids went to a different screen to watch The Mask, I believe)
FUN FACT: When I saw The Mask in theaters, the scene where Stanley Ipkiss is in jail telling his dog to find a new home, I cried. I was a child, lol.
Speed was not underrated. It’s one of the 90’s movies that set the bar for many and plus it was a box office smash.
WTF is The Mast?
This movie has one of my favorite one-liners after killing the bad guy.
"I'm the guy with the plan! What are you gonna do??? I'm smarter than you Jack! I'M SMARTER THAN YOU! ...AHHHHH" * SPLOOT *
"Yeah? WELL, I'M TALLER!"
There is at least one out of three 90s movies that I would love to see you do a review on.
Seven: A "modern" noir detective movie with a great cast.
Good Will Hunting: Damon and Williams gave us chills
The Little Giants: A kind hearted movie about underdog kids that can overcome, and also no one makes movies like that anymore.
Jeremy, don't forget about that incredible scene where the bus jumps/flys dude! That scene set tthe bar for all movies that do that like *GONE IN 60 SECONDS* & *DARK KNIGHT RISES* for example
Since you're reviewing early Keanu Reeves, please review "The Replacements" I love that movie
That Speed theme and the getaway theme from Metal Gear Solid sound very similar.
One of my all-time favorites! Very glad you reviewed it.
I recommend the Nicolas Cage "Beige Volvo Trilogy": The Rock, Con Air, and Face Off (or at least which of them you haven't reviewed already)
That tagline is amazing "Get Ready For Rush Hour"
Also ... some sort of Nicolas Cage 90's action The Rock, Con Air, Face/Off review would be great
Sooooo.
Are You gonna review Star Wars Clone Wars s7 when that's all set? I'd really like to hear your thoughts on it. Especially the finale cause OH MY GOD....just....Christ. So many emotions.
metalgamer 817 Very much so. We’re in that Siege of Mandalore storyline that connects into Episode 3 and referenced by The Mandalorian. And you can feel the clock ticking down to Order 66
That Ahsoka vs Maul fight was pure awesome.
@@benwasserman8223 yooooo the reunion for Anakin and Ahsoka is painful and I love it. And AHSOKA. VS. DARTH MAUL MMMMMM that is just some TASTY SHIT lol And yes the tension is just slowly rising and the ending to Phantom Apprentice was just BONE chilling....oof
Ribotto Studios You can tell Maul is legit terrified about what Sidious is about to do. He’s ironically the only one trying to stop what’s about to happen, albeit for selfish reasons
Just throwing this out there, but maybe you should review the first Terminator.
The Demon's Reflection he already did years ago
Jereme, I’ve know “you’re always in the mood for speed” for about a decade now. Great movie review though!
It would be fun to compare Speed 2! haha! I would also love to see you review Con Air!
Not completely 90s, but I would love to hear your thoughts on the Lethal Weapon films.
To me, the first is just as much an action classic as Die Hard is, and just as much a Christmas movie to boot!
To quote Jeff Daniel’s character Harry from the movie. “ I’m going to go home...have some sex.” Lol.
Your going to go home and pass out...
-Oh, Harry... You're gonna go home and throw up.
-Yeah, well... That'll be fun too.
My favorite line in the movie too 👍
shame he got killed when the villain blew up him and the swat team.
Will Huey . Yeah I was like damn. He got checkmated.
I saw this in a double feature with Beverly Hills Cop 3. Me and my friend were both fans of the first two BHC movies. We'd heard the new one wasn't good, but we figured, "Hey, how bad can it be?"
...
The theater shows Speed first, which we knew very little about. We thought it was going to be the worst of the two. We're thinking, "Well, at least we'll get the crappy one out of the way first."
It completely blew us away. It's still one of my top ten action movies.
And then BHC3 comes on. Less said about that the better. But I will always be grateful to BHC3 and that theater for showing that double feature, because without it I probably wouldn't have seen Speed on the big screen, and that would have sucked.
Speed is cinema perfection!! Thanks for doing it justice! You even highlighted that killer score!
Now I’ll be super disappointed if you don’t follow this up with a Con-Air review!!
