One of my favorite running gags in this whole franchise is how Yen speaks in Mandarin and everybody speaks back to him in English and everyone understands each other no problem and it’s never explained.
Ocean's Eleven is a remake of the original 1960 Ocean's Eleven, starring The Rat Pack: Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr., Peter Lawford, and Joey Bishop. It is one of my favorites and it is pretty good, the ending is different and it was done when Vegas casinos were just becoming a thing, so the story has a different feel.
Rusty's constant eating was a creative decision by Brad Pitt. He felt that with as busy as Rusty would be getting the heist perfect he wouldn't have time to actually sit down, eat and would be eating on the go. Also, Ocean's Twelve is absolutely brilliant, but different. To me it's criminally underrated.
It's a way to save money as he could put all his food on movie expenses: he didn't have to buy any food himself. He could even put all the food he bought for his home to expenses as he claimed he was 'training for the role' while he was eating.
I heard a good theory from someone, that O11 is a Danny style story/heist O12 is a Rusty style story/heist O13 is a Linus' style story/heist Fun thing about the last scene with Rusty, he's finished eating cause he is finally full.
@@jrgilby Bobby? Who's Bobby? As in Bobby Caldwell? I think you mean Linus then. Linus Caldwell. Matt Damon's character. Bobby Caldwell is his father who we never see in Ocean's 11. He's only mentioned.
You may not have noticed that the credits read "Introducing Julia Roberts as Tess" which is hilarious because Julia had been an A-list movie star for at least ten years by then. She has a funny credit in "Ocean's Twelve" as well, but I can't tell you what it is--it's a spoiler!
One of my favorite heist films(RIP Bernie Mac). There is a 1960 Ocean's 11 films that had five members of the Rat Pack: Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr., Peter Lawford, and Joey Bishop. Fun film also, hope you guys have a great new year.
One of the Rat Pack was Henry Silva, and he had the cameo in this one as the guy that shouts at Saul, saying "it's me, from Saratoga". Also Angie Dicknson from the original, she was in the prize-fight audience behind Julia and Andy.
It's funny how this has become a franchise when that original film was just an excuse to get all 5 Rat Pack guys on screen at the same time, and since Vegas was pretty new and novel at time, they all lived there so they insisted it was set there.
3:25 I usually dont like saying this but watch the original with the "rat pack" really opened my eyes and made me appreciate this film so much. Just how it's so different now coming from guys like Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr. They were just so cool, stylish and just a great great time
Hey Daniel, I just wanted to say I'm sorry you ran into copyright issues and had to re-edit this. It definitely noticeable but it was still very enjoyable! I love all you reactions and appreciate all the work you put into your videos you make make for us!😉👍 I hope your family have a great New Years and keep up the great work!
If you enjoy this, you guys really need to watch The Sting starting Robert Redford, Paul Newman, and the menacing Robert Shaw who you may remember as Quint in Jaws. For my money it is the very best heist/crime movie ever put to film. It has a very similar tone to the Ocean's movies.
yes, Not enough reactors have seen THE Sting. 7 oscars and that great soundtrack. I have about 4-5 who I follow and none guessed the ending. JEN murray who does a lot of uploads ( each epi of S Trek next GEN as she is doing 2 per week) was soo angry near the end until the reveal
@@nirfzMichael Keaton is playing the same character, Nick, after he transferred from DEA to FBI. It is one of Elmore Leonard's quirks to have characters from other stories make appearances.
@@jhilal2385Now that you mention it, i remember him being in both movies. But didn't occur to me that this was more than a coincidence. (The time gap between me seeing Out of sight and Jackie Brown was a few years, so i didn't remember his characters name when watching the second movie.)
I highly recommend Out of Sight with Clooney and Jennifer Lopez. I've never seen a reaction to it, but it's an amazing film. It's in the same world as Jackie Brown.
For a great Casey Affleck and Brad Pitt movie I highly recommend "The Assassination of Jesse James". One of my favorite movies and they both give oscar level performances.
This is one of the smoothest written and paced movies! It holds up after a million watches, and the jokes and suspense still hit. So glad you liked it! The cast, as you said, was totally stacked. And on top of that, the soundtrack was stellar. Regarding Casey Affleck, he was in Good Will Hunting as one of Will's friends. ~Caroline
I saw Original Kings of Comedy in the theater. I remember getting the mp3 of Bernie Macs set. I relistened and shared it with friends. ruclips.net/video/dm4khVVPt-k/видео.htmlsi=ybY9nJHXRbjUIckd
One of my favorite running jokes in this movie is that Brad Pitt is always eating. The lines at the end “I hope you were the groom.” “Ted Nujent called. He wants his jacket back.” were both ad libbed on the spot. Also, the wig that Pitt wears as the “doctor” is the same one that Austin Power’s stunt double wore.
I saw this for the first time when I was 10 and was mind blown. Tbh I didn't get the heist in its entirety and had to watch it back to back right away. One of my fav trilogies
Oceans 11 12 and 13 are all good. Oceans 11 is a remake of the original (1960) Oceans 11 with Sammy Davis Jr. Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin. Oceans 8. with a female cast with Sandra Bullock and George Cooney, and Rhianna.
What I loved about Eleven was the way they played US; the audience. It was soooo tricky. Great reaction / review y'all. Can't wait to see you do the remaining films. They're great also. Y'all be safe;
I love love love love love these movies! The Ocean's movies are one of my favorite trilogies ever, just watched them again recently for the millionth time. They never get old and I laugh the same amount every time. One thing that I personally really appreciate about these is the writing. It's excellent (a favorite from this first one is the dialogue in the scene in the hotel restaurant between Danny and Tess - it's fantastically written). It also is written in a way that makes it feel like an older film. It's quick, witty, dry, sincere, and clever - it's the kind of writing I don't really see anymore and it's great, I LOVE the way older films are written (ones from the earlier days of cinema - 40s, 50s, 60s) so the fact that they bring some of that into these is so much fun and refreshing. It's also a great callback to the fact that the original rat pack film that is from that golden age of movies. I also think these are directed really well too. There are so many creative shot choices I love and the way they're made, visually, the style feels reminiscent of the classics. I think the combo of the writing and directing is what contributes to them feeling timeless and they never get old.
Now you'll have to watch the 1960 version with the Rat Pack. My parents took my brother and me (5 years old) to the drive in to watch it, just so we would know who all these famous stars were. I didn't understand it as the movie was progressing and asked too many questions. My dad finally told me to be quiet and just watch the movie.
Actual location that no longer exists: at 7:58, the dog track where that was filmed, is Derby Lane, which is a short drive (or a long bus ride on PSTA Route 9) north of St. Petersburg, Florida. It ran races from 1929 until its track was closed in December of 2020. Its poker room and simulcast facilities are still operating, and the tournaments aren't half bad.
Casey Affleck's character's brother in this film is James Caan's (Sonny in The Godfather & Elf's biological father) son Scott Caan went on to be a main cast member ( Danny "Danno" Williams, as in "book-em Danno" )of the "Hawaii 5-O" tv series reboot (2010-2020).
Casey Affleck was indeed in Good Will Hu`ting. He was the one that watched adult movies in Ben Affleck's character's mom's bedroom and famously used the baseball glove for "cleanup".
If you want more Andy Garcia, I highly recommend Things to do in Denver when you're Dead. Really good film, not very happy, but really good (I think the 6.7 rating doesn't do it justice).
Such a fun movie! and I agree with whoever recommended Gone Baby Gone, it's a fantastic movie-- it is based on a book by the same author who wrote the book Mystic River, which you just reacted to the movie adaptation recently. Very much the same feel as Mystic River, so since you seemed to like that one you would like Gone Baby Gone too!
The beginning and end shots were done at the Rahway State Prison in NJ. Also when he calls his truant officer you can see the logo for the Trump Plaza casino in Atlantic City which has since been demolished. The shot of him coming up the escalator to the casino was shot there. Trump also owned the Taj Mahal casino which is now the Hard Rock and the Trump Marina casino which is now the Golden Nugget in AC. FYI since Steve Wynn left LV, None of the casinos are owned by any one person. All of them are owned by corporations.
Love this movie so much. Amazing cast. Quick-witted and perfectly delivered dialogue. Just clever and fun. If you want more Casey Affleck and Brad Pitt, check out The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford.
Nobody thought that this "Rat Pack" classic would be revamped into a franchise. I saw the 1960's original before the remake came out. Also it re-established the 'Heist Comedy' that the original had first introduced. Great cast. One of the best ensembles ever. They all had such a good time working together. Going by the 'behind the scenes' footage and interviews. The most recent installment was the spinoff, Ocean's 8 (2018) and it was unexpectedly good. But definitely work your way through Ocean's 12 & 13. RIP to the legends, Bernie Mac (Frank Catton), Carl Reiner (Saul Bloom) and Jerry Weintraub (main producer of the Ocean's Trilogy, 2001-2007).
My personal favorite Andy Garcia movie is called Jennifer 8. A nice, dark little thriller also starring Uma Thurman and Lance Hendrickson. I seriously doubt it'll win any polls, but still awesome and well worth checking out if you have an extra "I picked this one for us" slot left open to fit it in.
Nicely done, folks. Elsewhere on this it has been recommended that you take in a viewing of *The Sting* (which turned 50 this past year) and which I enthusiastically second as it is easily one of the snappiest films about the light-fingered set that ever has been made (and got a Best Picture Oscar to prove it). Howsomever, I must also put in my two cents for 1968's *The Thomas Crown Affair* with slick hunk Steve McQueen and drop-dead-gorgeous Faye Dunaway in the first flush of her stardom. This is one of those late-60's movies with extended flashy split-screen sequences and, as a bonus, perhaps the sexiest game of chess on celluloid. I really should have done this after you screened *Midnight Run,* but I now present you the best of holidays gifts - my subscription. You have both been excellent viewing companions for nearly three years and I'm very glad you've elected to pursue this line of work. Keep going - and Happy Cinema! 😄
@@mikethemotormouth The music was fantastic in 12. When he was going through the lasers with his choreographed dance ,that music was perfect. I also think that the story was much better but that’s just my opinion
10/10 One of my all-time favorites There is just something about this movie that makes it so great. There's nothing truly outstanding about any one aspect of the movie; nothing that will blow you away. However, everything is put together perfectly. Personally, I have a theory that any movie that absolutely blows you away the first time you see it, will lose its entertainment value very quickly. Not necessarily because the movie was not good, but because it just seems to get old too fast. This is NOT one of those movies. This is the kind of movie that will be enjoyed countless times. The dialogue is slick, and always to the point. There are few (if any) overdone scenes and/or lines that tend to become annoying over time. This movie flows exceptionally well. Personally, I couldn't quite figure out why until I watched the "behind the scenes" footage on the DVD. I didn't really notice all of the work they put into using as few shots as possible. The extra features on the DVD really explain it all. Almost every scene uses considerably less shots than you would think it takes to convey all of the activity going on. The music punctuates the flow of the movie and the shots extremely well. The cast is almost all big names. It's great to see actors like Pitt and Clooney and Damon come together in a movie and interact so well, without having to be the pretty boys or bad-ass heroes of the movie.
This is one of my all time favorites, if it's on and I land on it, I'll stop and watch it. GREAT MOVIE, the 2nd (Ocean's 12)one not so much the 3rd one (Oceans 13) is FANTASTIC as well.
23:02 Where did the flyers come from? The biggest mistake in this movie, is this scene with the flyers, cause there is no way to explain their existence. They weren't transported down with the money and chips. They aren't stored in there. How did that many get down there? @TBRSchmitt+
The Mormon twins crack me up, bieng mormon myself and from where they are from , the scnene where they are on the drag strip racing the truck agaisnt RC car , that was an olllllld raceway in Sringville Uth from the 1930’s used all the way into the 90’s, when I was a toddler my parents used to take us there to watch the oval track races. I mentioned this to my mom remnebering and she was shocked saying I was only 2 years old and I remember so vividly. It was after seeing this movie in theaters I had the memory , like the movie opened a vault of a night we weee there when my mom held me as the sun set and faded to night hearing cars racing as I fell asleep in her arms. She passed away of brain cancer recently and I’m so greatful to have seen this movie to remember such a beautiful memory of my amazing mom. Now everyone I see it I have a flood of emotion at the track scnene . They tore it down a few years after thd filming of this, no one went anymore after the 80’s . Sad that it’s jsut an empty overgrown field where one of my first memoiries I remember occurred and how time goes on, the places we went close and change and the people and loved ones we were with pass away but we carry those memories so vividly through our lives. As a single dad now of 3 amazing daughters , and having such beautiful memories of my childhood and parents and loved ones , it makes me want to be the best dad I can be, realizing my girls will one day be remembering our memories of now when I’ve passed on and thinking my mom was invincible and would live to 100 so healthy , but passing out at 60 recently and finding out she had a brain tumor /cancer and passing days later I had the heart break of my life realizing she was gone and all I wished I’d of said to her thinking I had all the time in the world , I can’t now , it’s also made me into a better dad that wants to share all the love I have and tell my daughters all I can to help them feel loved so when I’m gone they have beautiful memories as I do. My mom passing so suddenly and tragically and living the best life she could , healthiest life possible , showed me anyone can pass at any time even living so healthily , so do all you can love your loved ones with all your heart today because you may not be here tommrow , next month or year. ❤️ TBR Schmidt family, I know you are new parents and adore your baby , continue that give that baby all your love so one day when you’re gone, they can be sitting in bed as I am and feel the love I feel in that memory. What we do every moment with our babies , they take in, and those memories can be unlocked any time by random things.
The theory behind Rusty eating all the time is that he’s a very busy guy and just doesn’t have time to sit down for a meal. So it’s plausible that he would always just eat on the run when he can.
Yay! Got it up 😀 Hope the C monster doesn't take it down. If you haven't seen them, a couple other movies of the same genre are The Sting and Sneakers... both with Robert Redford 🙂
This is a remake of a Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr. Rat pack movie. Made in their of time in vegas....in the sixties. It's cool to see what Vegas was like in the early days.....
Watched your channel a few years back really enjoyed it but for some reason I stopped watching reaction videos but now I’m back and all subscribed up…really liked your reaction to the great escape and thought it would be good to react to classic movies the original version of this film is epic
Also Check out Logan Lucky. It’s not an Ocean’s film. But it also by Steven Soderbergh and the way the story unfolded is like the Ocean’s film. You can call it Ocean’s 7-11. Also really underrated.
Nice to see that _Carlito's Way_ did well in your poll. I hope you get to watch it someday. It's my favorite Brian de Palma film. (Yes, I like it better than _Scarface._ )
Yah you should watch “Gone Baby Gone”. Also “The Gift” (2000) you would love both movies. The Gift is so underrated and with the cast I don’t understand how more people haven’t reacted to it.
@acegamer5082. I love "The Gift"!💙Great story, wonderful cast (for anyone who doesn't know, it's Cate Blanchett, Keanu Reeves, Hilary Swank, Giovanni Ribisi, Greg Kinnear). Did you know Billy Bob Thornton wrote it based on his own mother's psychic ability? Love his writing. There's another film with the same title from 2015 with Jason Bateman & Joel Edgerton. Very different kind of role for Bateman & he's excellent in it. It's pretty good too. Suspense/thriller with an unusual story. Worth seeing.✨️
I saw a 1955 movie at a film noir festival several years ago, and it’s considered to be a direct influence on the Ocean franchise, including the OG from 1960. Stars Kim Novak, Brian Keith and Guy Madison. Even has an early nod to PTSD; I’ll say no more but I strongly recommend it. A solid B movie. From Wikipedia: Released in 1955, 5 Against the House is an early example of a heist film, and an early film depiction of casino-robbery, later typified by Ocean's 11 (1960) starring the Rat Pack and its remake, Ocean's Eleven (2001) with George Clooney and Brad Pitt, and the remake's sequels. Martin Scorsese has indicated that his 1995 film Casino was influenced by this production by Phil Karlson.
Gone baby gone, Manchester by the sea and the assassination of Jesse James if you two want a triple feature of Casey Affleck giving a masterclass in acting
The one Oceans movie you left out, is the fact that this was a remake of the original "Oceans 11" starring Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr., Dean Martin, and the rest of the Rat Pack from 1960.
If you haven’t already Sam, check out Murder by Numbers with Sandra Bullock and Ryan Gosling, crime thriller, solid cast, I think you might like it. Great reaction as always, all the best for 2024 to you and yours 😊
Casey was in Good Will Hunting, he was the guy in the back seat who wants his sandwich which brother Ben's character decides he can put it on lay-away to pay off. He also keeps interrupting Ben's joke telling in the bar like a little brother would but he does get to ride shotgun in the end when "Will" is no longer available to be picked-up in the morning when Ben comes a knocking.
You guys may want to search out the original. Its a 1950s movie. (Belive of the same name) Watched it as a kid. I liked that time frames take on this. This version has more style but the original has its charms.Have a good one.

One of my favorite running gags in this whole franchise is how Yen speaks in Mandarin and everybody speaks back to him in English and everyone understands each other no problem and it’s never explained.
Yea that's a hilarious gag! Also he I read he's actually speaking Mandarin not just uttering bs like my friend said!
Another gag was Rusty(Brad Pitt)was always eating almost in every scene.
All except Basher who gives a WTF look every time it happens. During the debriefing, when Yen asks about tunneling.
Another great gag is how Rusty and Daniel treat Linus. “And most importantly, don’t ever… ok I’ll be right there.”
He's their Chewie
"I owe you from the thing with the guy in the place and I'll never forget it" is one of my favorite lines ever😂
"They have enough armed personnel to occupy Paris. OK, bad example"
RIP, Carl Reiner, 1922-2020.

It's lawfully overrated 😉 then Ocean's Thirteen comes around!
Saddest thing about Ocean's Twelve was people criticizing the twist when functionally it's the same as the first movie if you read into it.
I heard a good theory from someone, that O11 is a Danny style story/heist
O12 is a Rusty style story/heist
O13 is a Linus' style story/heist
Fun thing about the last scene with Rusty, he's finished eating cause he is finally full.

Another good heist with George Clooney:
"Out of Sight" (1998) from a book by Elmore Leonard, sequel to Jackie Brown
What? Out of sight is a sequel to Jackie Brown? I mean i haven't seen Out of sight for almost 20 years now, but i don't remember any cross references.

The original with Frank Sinatra and "The Rat Pack" is awesome. Definitely worth a watch.
I second that!
Better I think.
The Mormon twins are my favorites in this!! They managed to portray whats it like to have a brother PERFECTLY!! 🤣😂🤣
Some other great heist comedies: A fish called Wanda, Sneakers.
For a great Casey Affleck and Brad Pitt movie I highly recommend "The Assassination of Jesse James". One of my favorite movies and they both give oscar level performances.
I haven't seen anyone react to yet
LOVE THAT MOVIE!!!!! It’s like a meditation of film making!!!
Cool reaction as always Schmitt & Samantha, you both have a good night and a Happy New Year

I love this whole trilogy 🙌

Actual location that no longer exists: at 7:58, the dog track where that was filmed, is Derby Lane, which is a short drive (or a long bus ride on PSTA Route 9) north of St. Petersburg, Florida. It ran races from 1929 until its track was closed in December of 2020. Its poker room and simulcast facilities are still operating, and the tournaments aren't half bad.
For good reason greyhound racing is incredibly cruel and abusive.

Casey Affleck was indeed in Good Will Hu`ting. He was the one that watched adult movies in Ben Affleck's character's mom's bedroom and famously used the baseball glove for "cleanup".
Glad to see that "Lock, Stock, etc." is on your crime list (if you liked the rhyming slang (13:35), you're in for a treat).
Great movie!
My favourite heist/con media is "Hustle" (2004), a british tv series! So much fun! ♥
I enjoyed it's American counterpart,leverage.
Great Movie, Great Cast, Great Performances By Everyone In This Movie 👍 & Great Reaction Guy's To This Great Classic Movie
If you want more Andy Garcia, I highly recommend Things to do in Denver when you're Dead. Really good film, not very happy, but really good (I think the 6.7 rating doesn't do it justice).
watching immediately!!!⚠️⚠️⚠️
Hey
"Does he make you laugh?" "He doesn't make me cry!" Such a great comeback!
Loved all 3 of these. Great cast and reaction.
Wonderful reactions from both of you
Such a fun movie! and I agree with whoever recommended Gone Baby Gone, it's a fantastic movie-- it is based on a book by the same author who wrote the book Mystic River, which you just reacted to the movie adaptation recently. Very much the same feel as Mystic River, so since you seemed to like that one you would like Gone Baby Gone too!
There is the original "Ocean's Eleven", released in the 1960s. Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis, Jr, among others.
There is an 'Ocean's Thirteen' as well as the original 'Ocean's 11 (1960)' with Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Jr.
You should also watch the original Oceans 11 movie from 1960, starring Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr, etc.
I've only ever been to Vegas because of this film. Ocean's 11 is a nearly perfect film.
The beginning and end shots were done at the Rahway State Prison in NJ. Also when he calls his truant officer you can see the logo for the Trump Plaza casino in Atlantic City which has since been demolished. The shot of him coming up the escalator to the casino was shot there. Trump also owned the Taj Mahal casino which is now the Hard Rock and the Trump Marina casino which is now the Golden Nugget in AC. FYI since Steve Wynn left LV, None of the casinos are owned by any one person. All of them are owned by corporations.
I'm glad you enjoyed it. I highly recommend 13 as well. And while I'm not the biggest fan of 12, might as well watch that one too.
Love this movie so much. Amazing cast. Quick-witted and perfectly delivered dialogue. Just clever and fun.
If you want more Casey Affleck and Brad Pitt, check out The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford.
It's also rumored that Brad was trying to quit smoking while filming and that's why he was constantly eating.
Brad is always eating in his movies its just his thing he does it in every movie he's ever been in
Loved the reaction guys. Happy New Year. 😃❤
Nobody thought that this "Rat Pack" classic would be revamped into a franchise.
I saw the 1960's original before the remake came out.
Also it re-established the 'Heist Comedy' that the original had first introduced.
Great cast.
One of the best ensembles ever.
They all had such a good time working together.
Going by the 'behind the scenes' footage and interviews.
The most recent installment was the spinoff,
Ocean's 8 (2018) and it was unexpectedly good.
But definitely work your way through Ocean's 12 & 13.
RIP to the legends, Bernie Mac (Frank Catton), Carl Reiner (Saul Bloom) and
Jerry Weintraub (main producer of the Ocean's Trilogy, 2001-2007).
Oh man, just started, but if she said she loved Oceans 8, she is in for some REAL greatness
That was my exact reaction lol! Ocean's 8 was so boring
Super fun heist movie that's unique and nicely balanced with such a relatively large crew..
Great to see this with you both!
Not sure if you've seen or reacted to it, but I'm pretty sure you would both really enjoy Meet Joe Black.
Hope you two are having an great and awesome weekend ❤
I HIGHLY recommend finishing the Ocean's trilogy off. Ocean's 12 and 13 are both very much fan favorites.
My personal favorite Andy Garcia movie is called Jennifer 8.
A nice, dark little thriller also starring Uma Thurman and Lance Hendrickson.
I seriously doubt it'll win any polls, but still awesome and well worth checking out if you have an extra "I picked this one for us" slot left open to fit it in.
Nicely done, folks. Elsewhere on this it has been recommended that you take in a viewing of *The Sting* (which turned 50 this past year) and which I enthusiastically second as it is easily one of the snappiest films about the light-fingered set that ever has been made (and got a Best Picture Oscar to prove it). Howsomever, I must also put in my two cents for 1968's *The Thomas Crown Affair* with slick hunk Steve McQueen and drop-dead-gorgeous Faye Dunaway in the first flush of her stardom. This is one of those late-60's movies with extended flashy split-screen sequences and, as a bonus, perhaps the sexiest game of chess on celluloid.
I really should have done this after you screened *Midnight Run,* but I now present you the best of holidays gifts - my subscription. You have both been excellent viewing companions for nearly three years and I'm very glad you've elected to pursue this line of work. Keep going - and Happy Cinema! 😄
I loved this movie when it came out. It’s a remake of the Rat pack movie but this was done well. I love all 3 of them but Oceans 12 is my favorite
My favorite also if only for the music
@@mikethemotormouth The music was fantastic in 12. When he was going through the lasers with his choreographed dance ,that music was perfect. I also think that the story was much better but that’s just my opinion
10/10
One of my all-time favorites
There is just something about this movie that makes it so great. There's nothing truly outstanding about any one aspect of the movie; nothing that will blow you away. However, everything is put together perfectly.
Personally, I have a theory that any movie that absolutely blows you away the first time you see it, will lose its entertainment value very quickly. Not necessarily because the movie was not good, but because it just seems to get old too fast. This is NOT one of those movies.
This is the kind of movie that will be enjoyed countless times. The dialogue is slick, and always to the point. There are few (if any) overdone scenes and/or lines that tend to become annoying over time.
This movie flows exceptionally well. Personally, I couldn't quite figure out why until I watched the "behind the scenes" footage on the DVD. I didn't really notice all of the work they put into using as few shots as possible. The extra features on the DVD really explain it all. Almost every scene uses considerably less shots than you would think it takes to convey all of the activity going on. The music punctuates the flow of the movie and the shots extremely well.
The cast is almost all big names. It's great to see actors like Pitt and Clooney and Damon come together in a movie and interact so well, without having to be the pretty boys or bad-ass heroes of the movie.
All right great reaction I love it
For a similar working class blue collar heist movie with its own ensemble cast, you should watch *Logan Lucky.*
Please do the other 2. It would be great. None of the other reaction channels I watch have watched past the first
The guy who plays Yen was re-casted at the last minute. They literally just found him from an Acrobatics team, he had no previous acting experience.
Great reaction as ever guys.
I'd recommend Manchester by the Sea wit Casey Affleck. Gut wrenching, but Acting/twist is absolutely amazing.
This is one of my all time favorites, if it's on and I land on it, I'll stop and watch it. GREAT MOVIE, the 2nd (Ocean's 12)one not so much the 3rd one (Oceans 13) is FANTASTIC as well.
23:02 Where did the flyers come from? The biggest mistake in this movie, is this scene with the flyers, cause there is no way to explain their existence.
They weren't transported down with the money and chips. They aren't stored in there. How did that many get down there? @TBRSchmitt+
The Sting with Paul Newman and Robert Redford.
Dang, they are all so young in this.
The Mormon twins crack me up, bieng mormon myself and from where they are from , the scnene where they are on the drag strip racing the truck agaisnt RC car , that was an olllllld raceway in Sringville Uth from the 1930’s used all the way into the 90’s, when I was a toddler my parents used to take us there to watch the oval track races. I mentioned this to my mom remnebering and she was shocked saying I was only 2 years old and I remember so vividly. It was after seeing this movie in theaters I had the memory , like the movie opened a vault of a night we weee there when my mom held me as the sun set and faded to night hearing cars racing as I fell asleep in her arms. She passed away of brain cancer recently and I’m so greatful to have seen this movie to remember such a beautiful memory of my amazing mom. Now everyone I see it I have a flood of emotion at the track scnene . They tore it down a few years after thd filming of this, no one went anymore after the 80’s . Sad that it’s jsut an empty overgrown field where one of my first memoiries I remember occurred and how time goes on, the places we went close and change and the people and loved ones we were with pass away but we carry those memories so vividly through our lives. As a single dad now of 3 amazing daughters , and having such beautiful memories of my childhood and parents and loved ones , it makes me want to be the best dad I can be, realizing my girls will one day be remembering our memories of now when I’ve passed on and thinking my mom was invincible and would live to 100 so healthy , but passing out at 60 recently and finding out she had a brain tumor /cancer and passing days later I had the heart break of my life realizing she was gone and all I wished I’d of said to her thinking I had all the time in the world , I can’t now , it’s also made me into a better dad that wants to share all the love I have and tell my daughters all I can to help them feel loved so when I’m gone they have beautiful memories as I do. My mom passing so suddenly and tragically and living the best life she could , healthiest life possible , showed me anyone can pass at any time even living so healthily , so do all you can love your loved ones with all your heart today because you may not be here tommrow , next month or year. ❤️ TBR Schmidt family, I know you are new parents and adore your baby , continue that give that baby all your love so one day when you’re gone, they can be sitting in bed as I am and feel the love I feel in that memory. What we do every moment with our babies , they take in, and those memories can be unlocked any time by random things.
The theory behind Rusty eating all the time is that he’s a very busy guy and just doesn’t have time to sit down for a meal. So it’s plausible that he would always just eat on the run when he can.
Yay! Got it up 😀 Hope the C monster doesn't take it down.
If you haven't seen them, a couple other movies of the same genre are The Sting and Sneakers... both with Robert Redford 🙂
Sneakers is a great movie!
Sneakers is the BOMB! Great movie!
This is a remake of a Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr. Rat pack movie. Made in their of time in vegas....in the sixties. It's cool to see what Vegas was like in the early days.....
Watched your channel a few years back really enjoyed it but for some reason I stopped watching reaction videos but now I’m back and all subscribed up…really liked your reaction to the great escape and thought it would be good to react to classic movies the original version of this film is epic
Also Check out Logan Lucky. It’s not an Ocean’s film. But it also by Steven Soderbergh and the way the story unfolded is like the Ocean’s film. You can call it Ocean’s 7-11. Also really underrated.
Oceans 12 was great too. Great choice
Nice to see that _Carlito's Way_ did well in your poll. I hope you get to watch it someday. It's my favorite Brian de Palma film. (Yes, I like it better than _Scarface._ )
Same here fantastic movie.
Yah you should watch “Gone Baby Gone”. Also “The Gift” (2000) you would love both movies.
The Gift is so underrated and with the cast I don’t understand how more people haven’t reacted to it.
@acegamer5082.
I love "The Gift"!💙Great story, wonderful cast (for anyone who doesn't know, it's Cate Blanchett, Keanu Reeves, Hilary Swank, Giovanni Ribisi, Greg Kinnear).
Did you know Billy Bob Thornton wrote it based on his own mother's psychic ability? Love his writing.
There's another film with the same title from 2015 with Jason Bateman & Joel Edgerton. Very different kind of role for Bateman & he's excellent in it.
It's pretty good too. Suspense/thriller with an unusual story. Worth seeing.✨️
I saw a 1955 movie at a film noir festival several years ago, and it’s considered to be a direct influence on the Ocean franchise, including the OG from 1960. Stars Kim Novak, Brian Keith and Guy Madison. Even has an early nod to PTSD; I’ll say no more but I strongly recommend it. A solid B movie.
From Wikipedia: Released in 1955, 5 Against the House is an early example of a heist film, and an early film depiction of casino-robbery, later typified by Ocean's 11 (1960) starring the Rat Pack and its remake, Ocean's Eleven (2001) with George Clooney and Brad Pitt, and the remake's sequels. Martin Scorsese has indicated that his 1995 film Casino was influenced by this production by Phil Karlson.
Gone Baby Gone is terrific.
Gone baby gone, Manchester by the sea and the assassination of Jesse James if you two want a triple feature of Casey Affleck giving a masterclass in acting
I've got some reactions to catch up on from the Scmitt's. Not a terrible way to spend a Sunday morning after church.
Hope y'all are doing well!
Another great one guys. Would love to see you do Black Rain for another Andy Garcia role in a great movie. Keep them coming!
Brad is known to be eating during various movies. It’s like one of those things he’s known for.
Great reaction, check out the original as well. My favorite exchange in this film is:
(Danny) Does he make you laugh?
(Tess) He doesn't make me cry.
Happy new year everyone
The one Oceans movie you left out, is the fact that this was a remake of the original "Oceans 11" starring Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr., Dean Martin, and the rest of the Rat Pack from 1960.
Gone Baby Gone is amazing
Ocean's Eight is top tier, in my opinion. I wish you guys could watch it on the channel, but I guess you've already seen it.
Eww
If you haven’t already Sam, check out Murder by Numbers with Sandra Bullock and Ryan Gosling, crime thriller, solid cast, I think you might like it. Great reaction as always, all the best for 2024 to you and yours 😊
My introduction to Michael Pitt
@@mikethemotormouth Dawsons Creek was my first encounter so I was suitably blown away by his performance in the movie.
Casey was in Good Will Hunting, he was the guy in the back seat who wants his sandwich which brother Ben's character decides he can put it on lay-away to pay off. He also keeps interrupting Ben's joke telling in the bar like a little brother would but he does get to ride shotgun in the end when "Will" is no longer available to be picked-up in the morning when Ben comes a knocking.
You guys may want to search out the original. Its a 1950s movie. (Belive of the same name) Watched it as a kid. I liked that time frames take on this. This version has more style but the original has its charms.Have a good one.
Fun fact, Saul is watching the original "Oceans 11" movie when we learn that Danny was burned by the Casino. "Turn it off Saul!"
YAY!!! ☺
