To this day, I still think this was Tom Cruise's best role. He played that character arc so well, and every time I see this movie, it still makes me cry
I don't even usually watch reactions to this one, but your commentary on this was great, as usual. "This movie gives you scenery and feelings." Ha! Brilliant! I'd say you need to write all these great lines down.......but we've got them all filmed for posterity! / PS: You mentioned "Gaslight"! Now THAT'S a movie you would do an incredible reaction to! The 1944 "Gaslight", with Ingrid Bergman! The origin of the term "gaslighting". Reaction video gold!
@@camcordercamerin Oh my god, then even moreso!!!! She is INCREDIBLE in "Gaslight"!! Definitely most definitely one for your list! (also: steamiest movie kisses of all time, bar none: Ingrid Bergman and Cary Grant's kissing scenes in Hitchcock's "Notorious"! Works of art, those scenes!)
I've always loved your witty and insightful commentaries delivered in an elegantly laid-back manner. Which is why it was such a pleasure to see you share your emotional side in the same honest and endearing way. Your tears packed a punch and were much appreciated, You're a delight.
Charlie's business was importing exotic cars from Europe and selling them, but before he could sell them they needed to pass emission standards. The problem was the cars were not getting the green light and his customers wanted their deposits back.
Charlie goes from not really caring about Ray and even thinking he’s fucking with him to protecting Ray’s dignity, ending the meeting once they’ve made it clear Ray needs round the clock care and then making it seem like it was Ray’s decision to go back.
Thanks for your videos! I hope you attract more viewers and subscribers. I like in this movie that there are things that both brothers struggle understanding. The things that Raynond struggles with, a lot of us take for granted. And Charlie initially is fixated or obsessed with money, and struggles with feelings and closeness. Charlie reacts poorly to Raymond's outbursts, but Charlie is actually having even more outbursts when he doesnt get his way.
Most entertaining reactor on TH-cam. She combines biting wit with heart. Tom Cruise can be a great, selfless point guard, setting up other actors so well that they won or were nominated for Oscars: Hoffman here, Nicholson in "A Few Good Men," and Jamie Fox in "Collateral." I'm trying to separate the artist from the art.
❤️❤️❤️and yes, Tom Cruise, as the ACTOR, is brilliant. Hoffman steals the show obviously, but it’s the small things like changes in the tone and character of his voice in the tender moments that really makes Cruise shine here!!
@@camcordercamerin Very good observation. Hoffman gets all the accolades but Cruise's role was more difficult to play in my opinion. He's the one with the character arc. He's the one that changes. The way he talks, the way he thinks, the way he interacts with people. All changes throughout the movie. Hoffman, while a stellar performance, plays the same guy start to finish.
21:10 they were doin that over and over again with Ray to prove a point to Charlie that Ray isn’t capable of making decisions for himself. He knew Ray wasn’t going to be able to answer appropriately, and wanted that demonstrated. Also, counting cards isn’t cheating or against any rules/laws, it’s also impossible to prove anyway. But casinos would/will often trespass you if they think you are doing it because they don’t want to lose a ton of money to you
My favorite scene is when Rainman cuts the cheese in the phone booth, Unscripted and TC's reaction is classic. Who can say they smoke bombed TC? Only Dustin Hoffman.
I've never watched this before. I'd always thought the main plot was just about him taking his autistic brother to Vegas to count cards. But I see there was more to it now, though it did seem to have the cliche of Tom being an overbearing jerk that redeems himself in the end. But I don't think people would enjoy the movie if he was still acting obnoxious when the credits roll.
it was one of those movies where you can predict every single plot beat and it is definitely extremely trite… but when you’re as sensitive as I am it’s still extremely effective!!
@@camcordercamerin before it totally slips my mind. I have a couple of 1970 mystery thrillers that should keep you guessing if you haven't already seen them (strictly for your personal entertainment) 1) The Bird With the Crystal Plumage 2) The Lady in the Car With Glasses and a Gun I found out about them from a Tarantino interview.👌
This movie was 36 years ago. The jerk redemption arc was far less of a "cliche" at that point. And stop assuming you know what a movie is about, and just watch it instead.
I only like Tom Cruise when he makes fun of himself. Tropic Thunder and Rock of Ages. Ok, Legend and Edge of Tomorrow were kind of good, but they could have used ANYONE to play Jack- it would have been fine. Just like any leading man could have been Neo in the Matrix, it wouldn’t have changed anything 🤷🏿♂️
The father gypped both Raymond and Charlie out of a brotherhood and family. And he failed to communicate with Charlie as a human being and teach him acceptable behaviors and receive love from his father. Charlie is only nasty because he was taught so well by his neglectful father. Charlie's mother died when he was two years old. what a sad messed up family, and nobody helped them, even with all the money they had..
1. Hoffman really did fart in the phonebooth. Being professionals they worked through it in character. 2. The first indication the change in Charlie beginning to change to me is the farm porch scene. 3. The casino would have swapped out the dealer before taking the step of kicking them out. 4. The hooker was just working and it's doubtful she turned them in. 5. I suspect Charlie has a bit of his "piece of work" father has just as Raymond got the completely different personalities. (mentally/emotionally) 6. Top 5-character development movie. Perhaps Charlie won't be so self-centered and toxic now.🤩
I MEAN it’s a beloved classic for a reason… it’s just a little too schmaltzy and trite for me, and I just think Forrest, for all his lovability, is very shallow as a character

Don't understand the hate toward Cruise. People don't know anymore about him than what the media told them. It's crazy how people dislike people when their TVs tell them to.
To this day, I still think this was Tom Cruise's best role. He played that character arc so well, and every time I see this movie, it still makes me cry
TOM CRUISE = LEGEND
"This movie is like Forrest Gump if it was good". I'm dead!
I almost fell out of my chair! Was just about to comment about it, but I see you beat me to the punch!!!!!! Brilliant!
Acting cold when Valeria Golino is kissing you requires a lot of skill. He earned his Oscar. 😆

I was so ignorant to that thank you lol
97 X......the future of rock and roll!

PS More Dustin Hoffman! Midnight Cowboy! The Graduate! Tootsie! Straw Dogs! Lenny! Little Big Man! All The President's Men! Great actor!
Such a sweet film
What a film. You also need to react to "Good Will Hunting."
A great one!!!!!
Lovely reaction, Camerin
thank u so dearly

@@trotter73ca YES! By the way, I just watched Maxxxine. Curious to hear your thoughts if you see it sometime soon

Good job six strings
Hi greetings from Brazil...please would you react to Cinderella Man 2005....with Russel Crowe...tis the most heartbreaker movie of all time

I like how you fell for the ole hate/like Tom Cruise character arch, lol😊😊😊
it is a very effective movie

2. The first indication the change in Charlie beginning to change to me is the farm porch scene.
3. The casino would have swapped out the dealer before taking the step of kicking them out.

What’s wrong with Forrest Gump, not mad, just wish I knew what her thoughts are about it🥺
I MEAN it’s a beloved classic for a reason… it’s just a little too schmaltzy and trite for me, and I just think Forrest, for all his lovability, is very shallow as a character
@@camcordercamerin damn I barely saw this, thanks for sharing your opinion, I really appreciate the response

Hello
Hi
I would love to take you to Vegas....
Can you please react to The Heavenly kid , from 1985, my fav hilarious comedy ever ! Please 😊

Quite a stretch, Tom Cruise playing an asshole. (Sarcasm intended!)
