Hey guys!! ☺️ Check out our full uncut reactions over on Patreon! Link-> www.patreon.com/asiaandbj
You guys would LOVE ( Public Enemies ) It's based on a true story about a 1930s gangster played by Johnny Depp.
if you like Law Abiding Citizen, you might also like Layer Cake - (also staring Colm Meaney - [as famously from Star Trek TNG too]) - and also has Daniel Craig, before he became James Bond.
BJ the actor playing Clyde is Gerard Butler , if you saw 300 thats where you recognize him from. Another great movie with him and Pierce Brosnan and Maria Bello is called Shattered. Check it out you'll like it.
Being that u like this movie so much, I have NO DOUBT ,u will definitely like PRIMAL FEAR with Richard Gere and Edward Norton
How and where can we put in requests?
Jamie Foxx is the villian in this movie. Gerard is the hero.
I think the words you are looking for is protagonists and antagonist.
@@goldfishprimeexcept the protagonist is not always the hero. Look at breaking bad and dune.
@@goldfishprime No, hero and villian are correct.
@@user-bs6sg4ow8x A hero doesn't go around killing people to teach a lesson.
@@goldfishprime Punisher, Judge Dredd, Wolverine, Deadpool, Thor, Superman, Dr Strange, Wonder Woman, can't forget our Lord and Savior as well. Pretty sure he killed plenty of people to prove a point.
Bj is the FIRST content creator on TH-cam that I've seen react to this film that automatically understood why Clyde took all of his clothes off.
I noticed that too and complimented him on it :D
For real, everyone else is like WTF
Why else would he take all his clothes off? It’s the only reasonable rationale.
YES
You are so right! Everyone else is as dense as lead.
Always rooted for Clyde Shelton 🤘🏽
I mean he might hve died but he won, Fox's character had learned his lesson...
𝐼 𝑟𝑜𝑜𝑡𝑒𝑑 𝑡𝑜𝑜 𝐼 𝑤𝑎𝑠 𝑠𝑜 ℎ𝑢𝑟𝑡 𝑎𝑡 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑒𝑛𝑑.. 𝐼 𝑤𝑎𝑛𝑡𝑒𝑑 𝐽𝑎𝑚𝑖𝑒 𝑡𝑜 𝑙𝑒𝑡 ℎ𝑖𝑚 𝑔𝑜 𝑏𝑢𝑡 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑤𝑟𝑖𝑡𝑒𝑟 ℎ𝑢𝑟𝑡 𝑢𝑠.
💯
Clyde wanted him to stop compromising and making deals with criminals. That's why he kept giving them the opportunity to not making deals with him, they kept failing and compromising with him.
1,000%! I think that is how Clyde was able to morally justify his actions. He set it ALL up like a long corridor with a Door at the end that leads to a horrible death. But ALL along the corridor are Exit doors on each wall. All Nick had to do was make the "right" choice & he would walk out one of those exits.
I also TOTALLY believe that IF Nick had NEVER initially offered a "deal" (and accepted a "loss" of a court case) Clyde would have abandoned his plans & it would have ended there.
Which I why (IMO) he gets that evil smile on his face when Nick asks him, "What do you want?" in the interrogation room! He is probably thinking, "I see. You have NOT reformed/ changed/ repented, at ALL! You are STILL what I HATE about the legal system. OK, Plan: Destruction, it is.".
That’s the thing that bothers me: he didn’t make the deal about releasing him by 6am and Clyde still killed everyone. Not compromising didn’t change anything
@@merchillio The only reason he didnt take the deal was the bad image it would have given him to release him. If it was benenficial for his conviction rate or image, he would have made the deal.
Clyde was trying to teach him a lesson about abiding by the law and not making deals with criminals .
My brother was murdered 5 days before his sons (my nephews) first birthday. He was shot in the head and then had gasoline poured on him and was burnt. I had to watch my nephew open his birthday presents 5 days later with all his "Love Daddy" gifts. The guy who murdered him was out less than 6 years later (I'm in Canada). Sometimes when you want justice you DO have to go and get it yourself... RIP Matt.
I’m so sorry for your loss 🥺
@moniquenicole641 I appreciate that. It was over a decade ago now but every time I see my nephews face I'm reminded.
@@carlosdanger7907 I can only imagine
Well, I hope you got justice. Don't tell me if you did, though.
Oh, man. I am so sorry 😞.
"Turned his neck into a sprinkler system" I laughed so hard 😂😂😂 That was funny 😆
I laughed, too 🤣!
Underrated movies like these deserve more praise and attention 💯
In what universe is this movie underrated? It was sensational when it released
Of course, a great film that's worthy of much praise and deserves to be watched by more people
defenitly!
"I mean he didn't express his feelings in the healthiest of ways." - Bill Burr
The judge's phone going off like it did was one my best parts in the movie. So imaginative and unexpected.
“She got killed by a phone call” 🤣😭😭
Ban assault phones!
Rotflmmfao 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
"End of the line"
This movie would have been my favorite if it wasn't for that ending
I agree with you 200 present 😎👌👌👌
Yeah, Clyde died a hero at least.
What would you have preferred the ending to be?
You are Right.I have read other comments concerning the ending,and everybody's comment is Right!
The rumor has always been that Jaime Foxx threw a fit over the original ending, which had Clyde killing him last. He felt his character should win. It doesn't work well, because his character didn't learn anything after all of this and ended up repeatedly breaking the law and technically committing murder, without suffering any consequences whatsoever, just to beat him.
This movie its Nicks ego that got everyone killed, once Clyde started killing. He was so worried about his perfect conviction rate. He couldn't see that he was basically putting everyone around him in danger. All the way until Jonas got killed he wouldn't let go of that ego. Nicks character made me mad.
All Gerard Butler's character wanted was effort. That's what he said to Jamie's Character after he killed his co workers in the cars. If he had tried to convict them for Murder 1 and lost, he would have been happy with that but because Jamie's character was worried about his win/loss ratio, that's what Gerrard had issues with and that's why he had an issue with The Judge, it's a flaw because their are safeguards in the law so they won't get the wrong guy but that's flawed as well. But in my opinion, that's the motivation of Gerard's character.
He was motivated by being a psychopath and killed several innocent ppl.
im convinced nick was last on the list, dont think clyde went insane,he wanted to highlight the crooked system in an extreme way that would get the media attention
I don't think Clyde would have killed Nick. That being said, I would think that if Nick hadn't stopped him and not appeased Clyde in some way, that Clyde would have taken his family out to put him in the same hell he was in.
IMO, Clyde was trying to teach Nick a lesson. He wanted Nick to understand that the legal system is not the justice system it should be.
I don't think that Nick was on the list. Clyde wanted Nick to understand the failure of the system.....to act outside the law (which he did in the end) would prove that Clyde did what had to be done to find justice.
@@PromptCriticalJelloand nick never got the message! He still thought he never did anything wrong
@@PromptCriticalJello looking back at it, you might be right
I always felt Clyde was so peaceful in the end because he knew Nick finally figured it out. Nick put aside the law and got revenge for those he cared about. Just like Clyde.
People hate on the ending but Clyde died in front of that courthouse when he watched Darby go free. It was bad enough that he had to witness his family destroyed and that could have broken him on its own. The tragedy that he suffered broke him beyond repair and there was no stopping him from killing anyone even tangentially related to the “justice system.” Him living would not be a good thing since he was basically a rabid dog with an extensive knowledge on how to kill.
❤️ the reaction 😊
Think of it this way: What happens when you absolutely wrong and take away everything from an "attack dog" of the government, who has been the brains of countless very shady complex successful assassinations? That "attack dog" is going to bite back. I'm more confused on why Clyde didn't pull strings in the deep government to affect the court case. But for as intelligent as he was, he was too naive to believe fully in the justice system.
I clicked so fast I broke the barrier... I luv this movie
Ditto!
Yes .... when or if they do Men Of Honor I'll do the same
At 26:52 Asia saying "Collateral damage" is a hint of the next Jamie Foxx action movie they will watch 😅 Collateral (2004) also starring Tom Cruise
Yes please!!
Collateral is so good
One of my Top 20 favorite movies. 🤩
And that soundtrack...🧨
Or it's an Arnie film
Clyde is the main actor from 300( this is sparta)
King Leonidas.
I love anything with Gerard Butler in it! He’s made so many good ones and none have disappointed. Angel Has Fallen, Olympus Has Fallen, London Has Fallen, all great.
Those movies are great;}>I like Den of thieves & 300 as well. But this one is my favorite with him.
He sucked me in (ha ha pun intended) with Dracula 2000. It had an interesting twist on Dracula's origin story that should've been explored more.
I love him in P S I Love You
@@cassandrareed5959 , one of my favorites!
Rock N' Rolla is a great one as well. Tom Hardy also in that.
“Turned his neck into a sprinkler system” 😂😂
"Why you gotta say that!"
Great movie until the end. The villain wins.
He isn't the villain.
@@claytonkeever2992
Yes he is, he exalts himself by trading justice for his reputation and conviction rate. He denies justice to the innocent. He's evil 😈.
@@claytonkeever2992 read the room. Clyde was the good guy. everybody knows it.
@@stich21 yeah someone that cares about their career over justice is good.
Gerard Butler’s performance in this movie was chilling, but so, so good. His confrontations with Jamie Foxx & the mind games they played with each other made this one of the best thrillers I’ve ever seen 🫣🫣🫣
The Look Asia giving BJ when He saying He's a Law Abiding Citizen 🤣😂
Literally my girl when I say anything 😂
as I understand it this ending was not the original rnding. clive was suppose to escape and win but even in this ending he won. everything he wanted to complete was completed.
I knew that’s not the ending I remembered!!
alternate ending link above
better than what we got.
@Zseventyone what? This is the only ending that was ever released. So if you remember something different, it's not a memory but a fantasy.
The original comment is saying that the screen play had a different ending at first but it was never filmed that way
Apparently it was cause of Jamie fox an his contract that’s why they had to change the ending
When they first came to Jamie with the script he was supposed to be in Clyde's role, but told the director that he wanted to be the lawyer
Clyde didn't have anything else to lose. He did not care what happened to him. But, he was taking a few people with him!
I actually helped develop those robots from the cemetery scene as a paid intern while a senior in HS at an R&D company near Boston. I went to a Voc. school for electronic engineering and got to go work there for 2 weeks at a time then come back for regular classes for 2 weeks then back and so on. I can't say who gave us that contract. 😉 All our contracts were pretty "hush-hush". Extremely satisfying job.
That a Foster-Miller "Talon"? Remember seeing those years ago.
Obviously Clyde gave you the contract, duh XD
Cool 😎!
I love the main actor so much, he's really good! You should watch Olympus Has Fallen, London Has Fallen, and Angel Has Fallen, he stars in these movies!
And Gamer
The main actor is Gerard Butler
As my Daddy used to say, before he left this cold, cruel world, ''Compromising with evil only empowers evil.''
no sir , you didnt just quote don johnson in "harley davidson and the marlboro man"
In the original script Butler was meant to win. Foxx kicked up enough fuss about it that they rewrote the end
Clyde was originally going to succeed in bombing city hall and escape after killing Jamie's character as well. I kinda agree with Jamie Foxx that that ending wouldn't have much going for it as what's really the point. Having it end with Jamie's character learning to go outside the law and the true meaning of justice is a better resolution
Clyde existed for 10 years trying to get justice. He succeeded and he was done. He went to his family like the end of Gladiator. It was a great ending so long as you understand that he did not lose to Nick. he played him the whole way until he learned his lesson.
Yall gotta see Jamie Foxx in Ray...his acting is next level playing Ray Charles...the walk, the talk, and incredible singing...it's a masterpiece
Yup. He won an Oscar for it.
@reneedennis2011 absolutely, deservedly so
Yes for him to b blind Ray picked the perfect person to play him
You guys did Django Unchained lol...If you do another Jamie Foxx movie my vote would be Collateral w/Tom Cruise👍
I agree.
This movie is awesome. Gerard Butler is a cool guy and has no mercy.... 💪
I love that. So good.
Greetings from Germany my friends 👍💯
You two have quickly risen to my top 5 list of favorite reactors. Always a great time watching with you, thank you!
This Guy was Diabolically Brilliant!
Don't miss "The Bad Seed" , the original from 1956. No one is reacting to it. I doubt that anyone who's seen it has ever forgotten it.
I remember that movie 🎬!
@@reneedennis2011 So, in your case I was right!
One of my favorites!
Great movie. You also see other Gerard Butler great movies like Gamer and Olympus Has Fallen. A really once in a lifetime movie you should see is The Game 1997 with a Michael Douglas a movie you can not recreate the first time you see it.
And my saturday night just became good. Thank you guys for posting so much reactions on a daily basis
Imagine how disappointing a Saw movie would be if Jigsaw lost in the end. Who thought it’d be a good idea?
Haha right? Or if John Wick was portrayed as the bad guy and the mob boss miraculously killed him in the end.
He turned his neck to a sprinkler system 😂😂😂
"Why you gotta say that?!?"
Will Always be Team Clyde...
This movie is very good until the end. They should have ended it with Gerard butler winning.
I think he did win. He killed everybody but Jamie, but Jamie is forever changed. He won't just be making deals that only benefit himself and serve no justice. He will listen to the families of the victims and do what they want and what's right. The impact on him was like dropping a rock on an ocean. It creates a ripple that will eventually be felt everywhere.
I also don't think Clyde wanted to live after he finished anyway.
That's how the script was originally written. Clyde was supposed to get him last.
@@carladavis1473 I get that but my issue with the film is it never gets you to change sides. Like even though Gerard butler is killing people and he’s supposed to be the bad guy you still side with him throughout the entire movie and because of that the ending doesn’t work for me. I think what they should have done is had something to where at the very end he’s trying to make his daughters show they should have ended it with Jamie foxx noticing a bomb inside the violin so when she hit a certain note it blew up or something and had Jamie scream “NO!” And the film cuts to black.
I'm old school, Asia. I have a DVD collection - and this is in it. Anytime I'm in walmart I go by the big $5 bins and rummage through for some movies I like. I have yet to stream anything. I'm still hooked to a cable box which I rarely watch. $175 a month for background noise while I watch YT on my laptop. Crazy! Great reaction to a great movie. ❤
"turned him into a sprinkler system!"
Amazing way to put it!
Lmaooooo i love that BJ almost lost his headphones when the judge died by flip phone😂🤣🤣
after dark knight and kingdom of heaven this is my top 3 movie of all time !
Turned his neck into a sprinkler system.
Why you gotta say that?!
😂😂 most relatable movie watching experience ever.
I loved the movie, for it brought realism to how the justice system works. It was clear to see a person snapping and going vigilante.
For those who don't know, the guy who held the bible as Foxx was being sworn in was my former Mayor Nutter of Philadelphia.❤❤❤
I didn't notice that! Thanks for the info!
@@reneedennis2011 no prob.
@@mchllwoods 👍🏾
Another banger. This one is great to watch with the commentary, you'll find out little things like initially the roles for this were switched, but Foxx and Butler decided to switch roles and I'm glad they did. Although I can't help but imagine how it would've turned out the other way around. Great movie.
"He's playing chess. They are all still playing checkers!" - Almost exactly what I think EVERY time! (except I think, "He's playing 3D chess" lol.)
Sometimes doing what's right isn't what's legal and sometimes what's legal isn't what is moral. The bad guys won in the end here.
The movie was a masterpiece up until the end. If there was a movie where the villain wins, it should have been this one.
Interesting how Nick got so defensive when his wife and child were possibly in danger but he didn’t want to ruin his 96% for Clyde who went through something worse.
You gotta watch Enemy of the State
The guy in the tunnel w/Jaime is Colm Meany, who was in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine for yrs. And in Star Trek: The Next Generation for a while.
Gerard Butler was also in "300".
He's also in a rom-com movie with Jennifer Aniston called The Bounty Hunter.
He was also in a charming movie called P. S. I Love You and in another movie called Reign of Fire. Both earlier and with a very handsome Gerard Butler.
And rom com the ugly truth. With Katherine heigl
for Colm, I'll add Hell on Wheels to that list
@@Anonymiad Colm was in Con Air
The actor playing Clyde is Gerald Butler from 300 King Leonidas, another really good movie with Jamie Fox and Tom Cruise is Collateral. I think you guys would really enjoy that one too.
Jamie Foxx' partner is Colm Meany who most famously played Miles O'Brien on Star Trek TNG and DS9.
It pays to know law. He had ten yrs to study law and is now playing them for fools. That is how you beat the system. This was a great movie! Great reaction too!
Great reaction as usual. One of the best movies with the worst endings. Not because Clyde died (I think that is the only way he gets peace), but that Nick had no consequences for prioritizing "wins" over justice and convenience over truth. He even became a criminal (breaking and entering and assault on a prisoner, then committing murder at the end). He did the things he condemned Clyde for and got away with it.
Another point was that to find out what was going on in the properties they had to break in. They had to go outside the system to catch him. Everything they found was "fruit of the poisonous tree" and couldn't be used in a court of law. His point of the system being broken was proven by them.
This is SPARTAAAAA!!!😮
This movie is very similar to a real life home invasion turned un-aliving in my state. It made national news in the early 2000’s. The husband survived but his wife and two young daughters did not . The two men who committed the crime were sentenced to death but the state abolished the death penalty and they’re now serving life in prison. I always think of it when I see this movie. 😢❤
I spot three actors that appear in the Star Trek universe.
1. 11:37 Captain Baxton on the left (Voyager - Relativity)
2. 11:59 Chief Mile O'Brien (TNG and DS9)
3. 23:24 Doctor Dysek and one of Morn's accomplice (Voyager - Critical Care & DS9 - Who Mourns for Morn)
Jamie is one of my a favorite actors and Gerard is one of my ladies favorites. So when this movie came out, we didn’t know what it was really about but obviously we were looking forward to seeing it. Blew both our minds and to this day it’s one of our favorites.
Brutal movie but the commentary was so funny.
*gives longitude and latitude coordinates*
“I still don’t know where where to go”
“Tell me the intersections” 😂
Asia: "Everybody go back in." Absolutely wonderful comedic timing. That was too funny. Great reaction, King & Queen
I watched the special features many years ago and I remember that they said Gerald Butler and Jamie Fox were supposed to have played each others roles originally. I believe they swapped because Gerald Butler wanted to play the bad guy and Jamie Fox wanted to try being a lawyer. Anyways I am glad that the movie is the way it is talk about perfection!
The deal was for 5 years not 3 he got out early. Their daughters weren't the same age since Nick's wife was pregnant when Clyde's daughter died.
"He tool a deal without consulting his client."
Victims or families of them are not the clients of prosecutors. Prosecutors work for the state
I once saw a documentary about the Black Panther Party, I think it was about the 60s or 70s, one of the two, anyway, it happened the police searched their domicile under pretexts, shot members of the group and planted guns on them to justify these executions as “self-defense”.
The point is at some point the Panthers began to undress before such searches in order to save their lives. They were still treated badly, but because they were naked, guns could no longer be planted on them to shoot them and then publicly justify the killings as self-defense. At the point in the movie when Clyde surrenders and strips naked before being arrested, I thought of this documentary, so I guess that's why he stripped before being arrested.
"turned his neck into a sprinkler system" "killed by a phone call" BJ had all the good one liners! 😂 One of my fav Gerard Butler and Jamie Foxx moves. Thanks! Love y'all!
I LOVE watching you 2.❤ Lovely couple with good questioning and understanding of movies.
It's going to be BIBLICAL!
Such a great movie, . Jamie Foxx is a great actor, . Another one I'd like to recommend with him is "Collateral" co-starring Tom Cruise. . Throw it in a pole, . . Love your reactions.
Poll
Have anyone notice this before??
If hero wins, its a good movie.
If villain wins, its a great movie (you won't forget that movie ever)
I have watched this movie countless times. I just happened to see this and watched it with you two. I really enjoyed you two throughout this movie. Thanks, have a blessed day.
Old school Deftones is great background music for the throat sprinkler prison scene.😮
😂you two crack me up. I've rewatched a lot of your videos when I'm bummed out. It makes me smile.
What a great movie. Nice pick guys.
Great reaction.
The whole point that Clyde is trying to teach is simple. Do NOT make deals with guilty people. ESPECIALLY when you know that they are the main culprit.
If they had just said, "No" to the mattress deal, none of this could've happened. Clyde would be in the main block, so under 24/7 surveillance. The INSTANT they make that 1st deal, his plan is able to work. They had mountains of evidence about him. But they took the easy route out.
I love movies that are filmed in Philadelphia (that’s where I’m from), and this is one of the best!
I knew this would blow your minds and you'd love it, most folk were the same when it came out...I bet you probably liked it better the second watch trying to look for anything you missed the first time round 😂
Unthinkable with Samual Jackson. Great movie
You two bantering back & forth about being the more Law Abiding Citizen knowing how the Law Abiding Citizen in the movie evolves into makes me laugh.
Glad you two came across this gem...Such an impactful story where both sides are right and wrong at the same time. Great content as always!
Damn...Asia was dead on!
"I Won't Be Back Look." was perfect. Dawn.
Awesome review.
It's interesting that in the end Clyde technically still won. He may have died, but it's because Nick and the cops moved the explosive to Clyde's cell, which in turn made them break the law. Criminal or not, Clyde still has rights and they not only took the law into their own hands, but basically committed multiple crimes including offing Clyde, destruction of property, and endangering the lives of others in the prison. Even if they cleared that level of the prison, there's no way to know if the blast could have affected other levels, and I doubt they could have evacuated the whole prison. Realistically, Nick and the cops should have been charged or at the very least lost their jobs, but this is a movie so they have to have a happy ending. Great movie though. One of my favorites and definitely slept on. Glad you reacted to it
Ooh.. if you haven't seen it already, Ray is awesome. So is Mr. Holland's Opus. Both are incredible movies. Thanks again for all you do. ❤
I remember having zero interest in this movie when I first sat down to watch it. It remains one of the most surprisingly good movies I've ever seen.
I really liked this movie up until they entered his hideout. Clyde thought of everything but didn't put an alarm on the hideout to warm him he was in danger of being caught?
For me this falls into the 'System always wins & the bad guy must lose' Hollywood moral story category. A better ending would have been Jamie Fox character to concede the system is broken & work with Clyde to make it better before Clyde accepted his death sentence.
He was ten yrs in the planning for this. That is a long time for a smart man to develop a plan.
Yall should react to the crow 1994, Brandon Lee's last movie R.I.P 🔥💯❤
Its such an oversight that Clyde didnt have the tunnel booby trapped or something,he definitely would have a plan for them discovering it
In the book,they never find Clyde
I watched this movie in Theaters, I put it up there almost as good as Man on Fire from what I remember feeling walking out of the theater.
I was introduced to this movie by my mom because she loves Gerard's movies and I love that Clyde pretty much just wanted for the lawyer to try in his case. Even if he would've lost at least he would've tried and that's all he really wanted.
This movie is criminally underrated as an action thriller. Gerard Butler and Jamie Foxx were spectacular and really leaned into the psyche of these 2 characters
How can you not like a movie when someone takes the law into their own hand when done wrong. He might have become the villain but you're still rooting for him.
