Devin! I am the director of THE OUTPOST. I am absolutely stunned that you did this. It was a blast watching you react to this film that we all made with so much respect and love. I am a veteran myself. Obviously, there are spoilers here out the ass - but I assume most people watching thi are also people who have seen the film.- Rod Lurie
Are you kidding me??! This is magnificent on all levels. A director taking time to look for and watch reaction to his film. I am proud of you Devin for getting this recognition as and I am honored to even be leaving a comment under a wonderful director for a channel of a great reactor. Rod Lurie, amazing job.
Thank you for making this film. It is one of the very very few films that have been made about GWOT that isn't entirely full of garbage clichés and terrible interactions between the Soldiers. This Iraqistan vet approves.
Just one more thing - your reactions were beautiful and sincere. It is the same reaction we are getting from vets from many wars. I just wanted to see your reaction if you'd continued watching when we did a memorial to the real men from the battle. Anyway, this film was made for all of our brothers and sisters in arms.
How were you and Jacob Scipio (Gallegos) able to convince legit soldiers and vets that he was the real deal? I spotted Larson and Rodiguez as legit right away and i had a good hunch on a few other guys, but I was 100% sure Gallegos was a tech-advisor or something. The man is from London...thats just amazing. You guys fooled Green Berets...that rarely happens. Salute o7
The guy at 18:21 on the machine gun is Daniel Rodriguez he actually played himself in this movie as he was one of the survivors and heroes from that day
I held my salute through all the images of the honored dead. This movie was something else. Our vets deserve so much more than we give them, including you, brother. Thank you for your service.
Bro this is so super emotional for me. As a guy that was deployed to Afghanistan in 2009, 2010, and 2012 this really hits fuckin home. I'm crying with you bro. It's a type of love we have for each other that regular people just don't understand. It's a bond that forever connects us through space and time. It's something that we all went through together where at some point we all thought we were not coming home, and the courage that it takes to push through something like this without any regard for your own life because you care about the brothers to your right and left more than you care about yourself. It's a love through a special camaraderie, and that's something that we will always have.
Same. Been looking for a solid war film post 2010, watched this with no expectation and was engaged the whole time. After wishy-washy "war is hell, now execute this random guy to prove my point" teenager bullshit like Fury, this movie was a breathe of fresh air.
Glad to see you on this, I was in Afghanistan at this time just not at Camp Keaton! Thank God! That was really rough! This is one of the most accurate war Movies I have ever seen. Edit..... A lot of our heavy equipment will be lost in conflicts like this, I have seen them Disassemble Tanks, Crawlers and other weapons and simply bury them because it is less expensive than bringing it back. Losing the truck was no big deal however losing the men was huge! These men were running on pure adrenaline, they were locked into fight or flight mode the only thing that matters in this situation is your trust in God, None of these men can dodge a bullet but they were so exposed that it almost didn’t matter where they were located, They could only move forward. I agree that falling into “Alamo” would have been a mistake that may have led to a slaughter and I believe that these men did the right thing. I am not old enough to know much about Vietnam however that would have been the “Ultimate Nightmare” for many soldiers. I served 23 years and I would not have traded places with these men, The Medal of Honor is the highest honor a soldier can get and It also comes with great benefits but honestly I was never “Medal of Honor” material, Some guys just react so much better than others when put into this position. I don’t regret my time spent in the U.S. Armed forces, to be honest I am grateful that I was allowed to serve my country as an enlisted soldier.
I agree, The last Samurai had a lot in common with this movie, Both Movies had underdog forces and I really enjoyed the Honor displayed in The last Samurai! Great Movie!
they did an amazing joy of portraying the true story about the final battle that was Battle of Kamdesh there a bunch of RUclips videos from troops based at Outpost Keating showing how crazy that place was, it should of never been a outpost in first place with over handing cliffs looking down on it
YES!!!! been waiting on one of these damn review channels to peep this, glad you did it of everyone! one of the most accurate portrayals of afghanistan by far.
I was with the first group in that place in 06’. 43 of us total and the only way in at the time was by helicopter. Mountains were right on top of us and so was the enemy. Horrible spot to build a camp and 3 years later when they had the major battle it was completely destroyed. Keatings vehicle flipped into the valley in 06’ and they named the camp after him after that.
This and 13 hours are as close as you can find to real life. I have family and friends who have been in combat overseas and they said it’s almost like actually being there in both of these movies.
It would be interesting to see you react to an actual documentary called Restrepo. It’s about a situation very similar to this film. It’s about a group of soldiers who serve in this area deep in the Korengal Valley in Afghanistan, probably the most dangerous area in the whole country. They would get shot at every day. One of the best military documentaries I’ve ever seen.
Unless someone has served, they won’t understand the brotherhood that develops. You’re damn right about everything you said. It stays with you for life. We had a reunion a couple years ago, it was like we hadn’t missed a beat. Same shit talking, messing with one another… it’s glorious.
Just finished watching this fully action packed movie and I'm glad that you my brother, Thank You For Your Service. already reacted to this awesome and powerful movie 💖🙏🏾✝️💪🏾💯...

The guy who plays Gallegos is actually an actor from London. I was POSITIVE he was one of the OG's from the real Camp Keating. I spotted Rodriguez and Larson right away, hes DEFINITELY legit. But i cannot believe Jacob Scipio (Gallegos) isnt a legit american soldier. Amazing acting.
As a military veteran I totally respect you and your reaction. Your insight and compassionate is inspiring. We are both aware that when we took our oath of allegiance to this country and “ALL” it’s people, all races stood side by side to defend and defeat our adversaries both foreign and domestic. I was in the Army in the mid 60’s. Old white guy here, we will always be brothers in arms, love you brother. Our children have lost their way, thanks to the greedy politicians and big tech, that are supporting destroying America and it’s people. Their goal is to establish a Socialist, Marxist, Communist, country. Woke Generation wants to destroy our history good and bad. We are living in very dangerous times. In Arrington National Cemetery in Wash DC, the real American heroes sleep. Across this Nation and the world. May God help us. These degenerates are brainwashed, propagandized, and manipulated, by their evil Commie handlers throughout our society. I’ll get off my soapbox now and just say it is a pleasure to hear someone that is a clear thinker and truth teller, instead of all these sheeple. Please keep up your excellent work. Thank you very much and God bless you and your family.
I hope you watched the interviews at the end with the actors who were there, and who had served. It was great additional insight into the making of the film.
My man! I really enjoyed your reaction to this movie and I also really appreciated you reacting to it. You are probably one of the only channels on YT that has reacted to The Outpost, so that's pretty awesome! Good work brother! You should react to "Restrepo" at some point also! 💪
I remember Jake Tapper talking about his book on which this film is based and saying that it was a story that people needed to know about. I was an incredible defense against an overwhelming force in what was acknowledged as basically being an indefensible position. There's a reason that castles are built on hills and not in valleys.
When we were training to deploy in 2012 we did VR simulations of this battle and others that had gone horribly wrong yet still ended in partial victories. Even with the clunky headsets and blocky video game graphics, it was harrowing just knowing it actually took place and we were reliving it. That outpost was a mistake and they probably never should've been there, but there's also an arrogance to the US because we always do win in the end, even if we take casualties. These type of events also opened the door up a bit on the whole "alamo" doctrine as not always being the best idea.
Im with ya on the tears!! People might laugh at me and pick with me about it lol but like you said its just the fact of knowing that they go through hell sacrificing their lives just for us! You don't have to agree with war but you support these men and women who sacrifice so much for us and i have so much respect for them and it gets to me bc im so grateful for them
I was not expecting this movie to be so good, I watched it a while back because I was feeling like a war movie and it was the first one on the streaming site I noticed.
This is the "Saving Private Ryan" of the new war. The sounds and visuals put me right there. The politics of it are spot on. Mostly, the military culture is perfect.
I watched this movie specifically for the scene where Younger got dragged out of the bathroom and forced to do pushups. I'm glad someone thought to have that scene put in because for me, it was hilarious
You should check out "The Tuskege Airmen" and "Red Tails" And, of course, in time you'll get to the classics: A Bridge Too Far Bridge on the River Kwai The Great Escape The Longest Day etc
Please watch The Seige at Jadotville...based on a true story. These guys are outnumbered roughly 10-1 and attacked by mercenaries as well. A great story.
Devin can you react to "The first medal of Honour ever recorded on Video" I PROMISE it'll be a great watch very Emotional also.....Much Love Big Man From the UK 🇬🇧 💪💯👍🏻❤
Man! Hardt was hardcore, shooting back at the enemy as naked as the day he was born! Him and Captain Spiers would have gotten along really well! Edit: I'm an idiot. That was Kirk. Damn.
If you get the chance, check out: KILO TWO BRAVO It’s another true story, it got a perfect score on rotten tomatoes, and (I am biased) I trained some of the real guys from the actual event
Hey Devin, I think you would enjoy "The Hurt Locker". You should check that one out next. Based on a EOD tech that has an addiciton for danger and adrenaline at the height of the war on terror in Afghanistan.
@@ryanbuckley5529 That's because it was wrote by a women who has zero experience with war. I'm aware of its faults. But the story and the entertainment factor is really quite high, if you can get past its inaccuracies.
I believe one of the guys replied to "Is this thing working?" with "The army made it so nope" or something to that effect. I've gotten the impression that a lot of servicemen feel that way about military issued equipment lol "I don't trust this shit." For good reason. As I understand it, they'd attack, we'd give them 500 bucks for them to hand us their rusty 100 dollar AK, and they'd go and buy five more. Boward? More like Blowhard. Fuck that guy. It should be noted that while most of the ANA ran, some did stay. They deserved to be recognized for their integrity. I can't remember if it's mentioned but that B-1 was dropping 2,000 pounders. That's a lot of hurt. Carter is the best "character" in the movie. You can tell the guys don't like him but when the shit touches off, even though you can tell he's scared more shitless than most, he still does everything he can. Plus when talking to the therapist, even being the emotional wreck he is, he still gets out that she's cute. That's my boy lol
You might like "Danger Close" about an Australian unit in the Vietnam War. It has a similar vibe to this movie in many ways. The PID rules were part of the rules of engagement. A lot of that came from McChrystal. A very poor choice of officer, a "Perfumed Prince" more worried about his image than getting the job done. He took a good opportunity and ruined it trying to make himself look good. Finding that ID smelled like a trap to me. Too easy to find it and it was someone known. They could well have been planning to ambush whoever went looking for him and then hit the relief units as well, a classic guerrilla tactic, or maybe even hit the base when it was shorthanded. Lastlt, if they hand bothered to study the Russian experience they would have understood not only the tactics better but not been surprised when the ANA ran. Under the Russians it was not uncommon for locals to come get trained and equipped and then vanish to the other side, before or during combat. Changing sides or running away was a way things were done there. "The Bear Went Over the Mountain" and one or two others should have been required reading.
john wayne is dead. those of us of a certain age grew up with some pretty ridiculous war 'plots' (usually/inevitably including a flashback or liaison with a girlfriend/nurse/native) extolling the glory of exaggerated heroics. even the ones who were actually there and wanted to tell the truth, like Sam Fuller, weren't allowed to because the studios determined that audiences wouldn't buy tickets to reality. now, finally, film makers have discovered that nothing but the truth is needed for all the drama and heroics an audience deserves...and an audience that hasn't caught on to that, that still wants a happy-ending war fantasy, doesn't deserve a film as good as this.
Devin G , react to “Miracle at st Anna” , and also , “Red tails” both are about the Rarely portrayed black soldiers of ww2 who experienced hardship in combat as well as from their own allies , also recommend “U-571” and “Pearl Harbor”
Red Tails was cinematically GARBAGE is was an injustice to the black pilots who alrdy have to deal with that times racist garbage. I was so pissed when I saw that in theaters and how second rate the production was.
Must be on the US version then! 😩 although I just watched the “medal of honour” programme and it literally had this story on there, re-enacted and with the real guys who were there, truly emotional
Can we talk about how bad Orlando Bloom's American accent is though? Brilliant actor as always, but he sounded more like a Brit who's never hung out with Americans before that point. Maybe that was the case idk haha
Keep up the good job on the reviews, great content. As a Vet you may appreciate this music video from a Canadian band called "The Trews" a song made for our troops. Check it out when you have a minute or would be a great reaction video. ruclips.net/video/QrkgV5bl7kQ/видео.html

I love how you, who directed a major film, took the time to make thoughtful comments on individual people reacting to the scenes
Just stumbled across it yesterday. Was good to see a solid war film that isn't ashamed to be a war film.
Are you kidding me??! This is magnificent on all levels. A director taking time to look for and watch reaction to his film. I am proud of you Devin for getting this recognition as and I am honored to even be leaving a comment under a wonderful director for a channel of a great reactor. Rod Lurie, amazing job.
One of the best war films I’ve ever seen, up there with the likes of Generation Kill in terms of realism and authenticity. You did an amazing job!

I was scrolling through Netflix and found this movie. Loved it. I didn't even notice Orlando Bloom at first.

One of the few truly accurate military movies. No dramatization, no unnecessary drama, no stupidity where it doesn't exist.
Such a great and underrated movie. Last Samurai will give you the same emotions, at least it did for me.
“The Great Raid” too
I agree, The last Samurai had a lot in common with this movie, Both Movies had underdog forces and I really enjoyed the Honor displayed in The last Samurai! Great Movie!
...No comparison.
He needs to see Hawksaw Ridge. I've never cried more in my life
@@unitedstatesofamerica9948 Yeah your right samurai are cooler lmao

YES!!!! been waiting on one of these damn review channels to peep this, glad you did it of everyone! one of the most accurate portrayals of afghanistan by far.
Easily my new favorite channel, deep deep respect for the military, as a Canadian, I admire and respect the American and Canadian military so much!
Always love how genuine your reactions are man! All the best.

Personally, this movie is the BEST interpretation of what a combat zone is like and the hardships/ decision that are made next the movie Jarhead.
This and 13 hours are as close as you can find to real life. I have family and friends who have been in combat overseas and they said it’s almost like actually being there in both of these movies.
Honestly as far as the emotion and intensity, I’d say this movie is right up there with saving private Ryan.
I was there in country when this happened. I knew this men that died and and fought that day. Thank you for doing the reaction means a lot to us.

Let's hear it for a strong man like this who dares to show feelings!
You can have all the advanced gear you like. Set up a base like this and expect results, you doomed yourself from the start.

Hey I was wondering if you could maybe react to, A Bridge To Far, it’s quite a long movie and has a slow start but I throughly enjoy it
one of the best war films
It's my go-to for WWII classic. Better than Longest Day. Definitely better than River Kwai
I was not expecting this movie to be so good, I watched it a while back because I was feeling like a war movie and it was the first one on the streaming site I noticed.
This movie… words are falling short.
For those who haven’t watched this whole movie yet, *Make sure to watch the post credits!*
One of my favorite war movies
This is the "Saving Private Ryan" of the new war. The sounds and visuals put me right there. The politics of it are spot on. Mostly, the military culture is perfect.
26:00 you started tearing up same time I did. It's a good, respectable, war film, that's pretty accurate to the real thing and glad you enjoyed it.
I watched this movie specifically for the scene where Younger got dragged out of the bathroom and forced to do pushups. I'm glad someone thought to have that scene put in because for me, it was hilarious
You should check out "The Tuskege Airmen" and "Red Tails"
And, of course, in time you'll get to the classics:
A Bridge Too Far
Bridge on the River Kwai
The Great Escape
The Longest Day
etc
I don't trust a man who doesn't cry or get emotional. 🔥🔥
Please watch The Seige at Jadotville...based on a true story. These guys are outnumbered roughly 10-1 and attacked by mercenaries as well. A great story.
Loved your reaction to this brother, especially when you teared up. That's real shit right there
Devin can you react to "The first medal of Honour ever recorded on Video" I PROMISE it'll be a great watch very Emotional also.....Much Love Big Man From the UK 🇬🇧 💪💯👍🏻❤
Man! Hardt was hardcore, shooting back at the enemy as naked as the day he was born! Him and Captain Spiers would have gotten along really well!
Edit:
I'm an idiot. That was Kirk. Damn.
I legit cried with u on this one.
Brother, people who have never served do not understand the brotherhood/sisterhood of us veterans!
Your little intro dance makes me smile every time I watch it! 😁
If you get the chance, check out:
KILO TWO BRAVO
It’s another true story, it got a perfect score on rotten tomatoes, and (I am biased) I trained some of the real guys from the actual event
My favorite movie!
Love your reacts brother. Especially band of brothers. Keep em up!
That movie amps me up, and I ain't even in the military.
Thank you. Great reaction.
watching this now after whats happened, its just amazing
Keep up the good work sir
This was a great movie glad you watched it and a great reaction as always!!
Hey Devin, I think you would enjoy "The Hurt Locker". You should check that one out next. Based on a EOD tech that has an addiciton for danger and adrenaline at the height of the war on terror in Afghanistan.
That move is a civilians version of war... it’s the most disrespectful unrealistic war movie Ever Made! That movie pisses vets off.
@@ryanbuckley5529 That's because it was wrote by a women who has zero experience with war. I'm aware of its faults. But the story and the entertainment factor is really quite high, if you can get past its inaccuracies.
Excellent book
Your energy is infectious man! Wish you were my gym buddy! Get me hype as fuck to lift!!!
Gotta wait to watch this before I watch your reaction. Looks lit.
Have you see hacksaw ridge
12 strong is a good film to see if you haven’t already
I believe one of the guys replied to "Is this thing working?" with "The army made it so nope" or something to that effect. I've gotten the impression that a lot of servicemen feel that way about military issued equipment lol
"I don't trust this shit." For good reason. As I understand it, they'd attack, we'd give them 500 bucks for them to hand us their rusty 100 dollar AK, and they'd go and buy five more.
Boward? More like Blowhard. Fuck that guy.
It should be noted that while most of the ANA ran, some did stay. They deserved to be recognized for their integrity.
I can't remember if it's mentioned but that B-1 was dropping 2,000 pounders. That's a lot of hurt.
Carter is the best "character" in the movie. You can tell the guys don't like him but when the shit touches off, even though you can tell he's scared more shitless than most, he still does everything he can. Plus when talking to the therapist, even being the emotional wreck he is, he still gets out that she's cute. That's my boy lol
😯nice, notification came in handy
My friend he was in the army and he had a buddy at was at that spot when it happen and my friend was at another location when he hear what happen

This movie hurts me because this based on a true event.
This almost seems like its based off of red platoon, for those that dont know its a book that talks about a fierce fight at an outpost.
It is, it even has some of the actual real soldiers that were in the real battle playing themselves.
Exact same story
the taliban are doing small attacks on the fire base to mark targets-actually this is a true story
My brother was in the fire fight
You need to do a reaction to 12 strong.
Devin, speaking of another war movie series to check out, check out Generation Kill
Scott Eastwood (Clint Eastwood's son) has been making great acting progress. A lot to live up to but he's doing a good job
This is a good one.. but please dude.. LOOK INTO "RESTREPO" am I the only one who has seen this movie about modern warfare???
I think he should watch generation war. It is in german but it has subtitles
53 brave American soldiers fighting against 400 terrorist insurgents is crazy and there one of the most decorated American units in war in Afghanistan
Isn't it crazy no one would be standing here if it wasn't for him
I literally just stumbled on this movie on Netflix. Timing
john wayne is dead.
those of us of a certain age grew up with some pretty ridiculous war 'plots' (usually/inevitably including a flashback or liaison with a girlfriend/nurse/native) extolling the glory of exaggerated heroics.
even the ones who were actually there and wanted to tell the truth, like Sam Fuller, weren't allowed to because the studios determined that audiences wouldn't buy tickets to reality.
now, finally, film makers have discovered that nothing but the truth is needed for all the drama and heroics an audience deserves...and an audience that hasn't caught on to that, that still wants a happy-ending war fantasy, doesn't deserve a film as good as this.
Devin G , react to “Miracle at st Anna” , and also , “Red tails” both are about the Rarely portrayed black soldiers of ww2 who experienced hardship in combat as well as from their own allies , also recommend “U-571” and “Pearl Harbor”
Lol Pearl Harbor is the biggest piece of shit ever conceived
Honestly all he needs to do is watch the Battle Scenes of Pearl Harbor and the Midway Movie
Red Tails was cinematically GARBAGE is was an injustice to the black pilots who alrdy have to deal with that times racist garbage. I was so pissed when I saw that in theaters and how second rate the production was.
Next movie you should watch is oparation red sea also
Ammo runner earned the CMH as did another
Devin Pimp!!
Where is this film? Netflix, Amazon, now tv??

Found it in Netflix
Must be on the US version then! 😩 although I just watched the “medal of honour” programme and it literally had this story on there, re-enacted and with the real guys who were there, truly emotional
Amazon in the uk
Awesome reaction sir
Yup I plugged you
Can we talk about how bad Orlando Bloom's American accent is though? Brilliant actor as always, but he sounded more like a Brit who's never hung out with Americans before that point. Maybe that was the case idk haha
Please react to What About Bob? It's hilarious!

Keep up the good job on the reviews, great content. As a Vet you may appreciate this music video from a Canadian band called "The Trews" a song made for our troops. Check it out when you have a minute or would be a great reaction video. ruclips.net/video/QrkgV5bl7kQ/видео.html
