I took my future wife to the movies to watch this, it was our second date. We were married for thirty years before she passed away. We collected around 1500 movies over the years and must have watched this and Jewel of the Nile a good hundred times. Thanks for watching this it brought back a lot of good memories
Condolences on your loss man. My late wife and I enjoyed films as well.
Turner and Douglas have great chemistry. They also star in The War of the Roses, which is quite an entertaining movie.
@Move_I_Got_This Yep. The three of them seem to work well together.
War of the Roses! Ah, those innocent days.
@@thecockerel86 "Innocent" is not precisely the first word that came to my mind remembering that movie :)
DeVito also directed The War of the Roses.
I watched this movie SOOOOO many times. Of course that was before Netflix, where you owned maybe 20 vhs tapes and rewatched the same ones many times, but I still enjoyed watching it over and over.
Or you had cable back in the day when they had very little content each month, so you saw the same movie a dozen times that month.
@@maxducoudray Oh yes I remember the early days of cable. Seeing the same movie 10 times in a week. I even remember the tv guide for some of the cable channels having movie A listed, then Movie B playing after that, and then Movie A again right after Movie B.
@@maxducoudray And no on-demand so you can just watch whatever is on.
One of my ex girlfriend’s family had a room full of VIDEOS must have been over 1000
And of course we appreciated film far more back when we didn't have it on tap.
This wasn't Alan Silvestri's first score, but it was the one that made me watch for the composer's credit the next time I watched it. It was clear that Silvestri was going to hit the big time even back then--I just didn't know what a legend he would become.
I never really thought about it but the suspense music and theme literally makes this film a thriller
That line about the American Express Travelers Checks was an homage to the wonderful actor, Karl Malden, Michael Douglas's former co-star in the show that gave Michael his start, "The Streets of San Francisco". Karl was a spokesperson for Amex Travelers Checks for years. It got a lot of laughs when this first came out; today almost no one under the age of 40 would get the reference.
I’m 61 and I never put that together. D’OH!
I was 12 when this came out and I never got the joke. Thanks for the clue.
I bet that kind of in-jokes later developed into Hot Shots and Naked Gun.
@@jeffking887 Now your going to wonder how you ever got though life not knowing that - my husband calls me "the walking college of trivial knowledge"
@@bcn1gh7h4wk God, yes! Those movies are full of 'em!
Jack T. Colton's intro with that sawed off shotgun was the greatest hero reveal since Indiana Jones in Raiders.
i cannot believe someone was finally willing to react to this movie. One of my teachers made us watch this in school once and ive loved it ever since. You guys are awesome for this.
There have been a few others that have done it - Ashleigh Burton, Madison Thames and Fjeresome Reactions. But it isn't a popular choice since it's bene largely forgotten. Interest has piked up recently because of The Lost City, though, since it's very much inspired by this one.
@@flatebo1 Ashleigh is super annoying now
I love when the Mrs laughs! Impossible not to laugh too!
It's awesome because Michael Douglas worked with Karl Malden, who did commercials for American Express.
DON'T LEAVE HOME WITHOUT IT
My family loves this movie. So much so that, a few years ago, when my parents bought an electric cart for their ranch they named it Pepe and even put a Mule sticker on it.
1. "War of the Roses" with Kathleen, Danny, and Michael is an awesome film, but it's much darker.
2. Alligators are fresh water and have square shaped snouts while crocodiles are salt water and have
round snouts.
3. My favorite character is Juan the bellmaker.
4. Snake doesn't really have a taste so to speak. It tastes mostly what you put on it.
5. Nothing wrong with enjoying a fun movie.
This is a damn good Michael Douglas movie one of my favorites. Yall should check out Falling Down one of the best Michael Douglas performances. Keep up the great work 👍 👏
Also Fatal Attraction!!!
"Falling Down" & "Fatal Attraction"
are both all-time classics, but how many
people know that Michael Douglas
was in a Disney movie back in '72,
with a young Jodie Foster, Johnny Whitaker
& a real live lion!!--"Napoleon & Samantha"?
The producers had to get permission from the City of New York to take down 4 blocks of power lines, and overhanging street lights in order to film the last shot of the movie.
Probably haven't seen this movie since I was 6 or 7, one of the first things my dad recorded on the VHS he was finally able to afford. Insane that a new VHS player in 1980 was the equivalent to $2000 in todays money :) Can comfortably say that I don't remember a single thing other than them sliding down a mountain.
One of my big favourites as a kid, this movie is just way up there among the best!
I'm so happy y'all got this gem (get it?!) into your schedule. Hope you watch the sequel as well! Much love from Houston!
This is a CLASSIC 80s adventure romance. And honestly, Douglas, Divito, and Turner gave Amazing performances! And the fact that there is a sequel. I would personally LOVE to see more sequels, since she was a fiction writer. The parody adventures are practically endless!
Nowadays they would make at least 5 but I think two was great
RED & RED 2 is an easy follow. 👍
This was the first vhs I ever rented from a video rental store probably around 1986. At some point I must’ve recorded it off the tv because I remember watching it a lot when I was a kid. I loved it!
This is one of those movies that I watched so much when I was really little, everything about it makes me feel 6 years old. Love it.
"All it took was a pickle tickle" OMG I laughed SO HARD at that line!!! I've never heard it before!! Great job Mrs!! lol!! Now back to watching the rest of this video. Thank you Mr. and Mrs. for watching this great 80's movie!
"Whatever happened to Lupe?"
We don't talk about Lupe.
Indiana Jones is the standard by which all adventure films must be measured... This one holds up.
Depends on what kind of adventure film, I suspect, e.g. Flash Gordon, Adventures in Babysitting, Back To The Future, Adventures of Baron Munchausen, The Abyss, Zathura etc.
Yes that was Chandler Bing's Dad and her agent was Charlie and Alan Harper's Mom. There is a sequel and as I recall the boat is involved. You should also check out The War of The Roses with Kathleen Turner and Michael Douglas and Danny DeVito.
Up until Romancing the Stone, Robert Zemeckis had not had a successful movie. The success of this one ensured that he would be able to make Back to the Future.
Gators be saying "Never cooked one of these before. When do ya flip em? 😁
A great, forgotten comedy that I used to watch on cable TV plenty of times in the 80s. By the way, alligators have a ''U'-shaped snout while a crocodile has a 'V'-shaped one. 🐊
Kathleen Turner's favorite scene was when the guys in Colombia knew who Joan Wilder was.
The chase scenes in this and the next movie are some of my favorites.
Great reaction you two. This is one of my all-time favorite movies !!! I'm so glad you could see it.
As an FYI, Michael Douglas WAS the spokesperson for American Express Traveler's Checks for a long time (1968-1989), so he was their spokesperson WHILE this movie was being made. So, I'm sure, when Joan and Jack were negotiating for him to take her to civilization, where she said, "Would you take $275.00 in Traveler's Checks?" and he replied, "American Express?" were a reference to that.
As another FYI, later in the movie, when Ralph saw his wanted poster in the police station (comisaría), the poster said, Ralph ( Se desconoce apellido) which means, "Ralph (surname unknown)".
I love Romancing the Stone. When I was a kid I watched that and Beastmaster again and again on HBO. Jewel of the Nile is nowhere near as good, but it's worth checking out once.
Man I hadn't thought about Beast master since I was a kid. Wow. Thanks
Ha..I always imitated Marc singer’s hawk cry. Aaaaaaaaaaand Tanya Roberts.
BeastMaster
th-cam.com/video/Y3iXpjFVbwg/w-d-xo.html
Two great movies with Kathleen Turner:
"Undercover Blues"
"V.I. Warshawski"
Jewel of the Nile needs to be watched now
Kathleen Turner was one of my teen crushes back in 84. Oh, hold on, I was 23 then...
One of my all time favorites. I watched this so many times as a kid. One day I noticed in the credits that the lady who smacked DeVito around for being under her table was cast as Hefty Woman. Still cracks me up decades later.
Today she would be called "body positive female"
Yes, she did play Chandler's dad! She's not a smoker, she's just always had a sultry voice.
I worked on this movie, pure dumb luck. It was filmed in México, and I went to the Hotel Xalapa to party at the bar. When I went to use the head, there was Michael Douglas taking a leak. Surprised he was so short, and he was surprised that I spoke English (I'm half-and-half Mexican/American).
The assistant producer was looking for gophers, to fetch stuff, get coffee, and in my case I could also translate (the fancy term is "production assistant", but basically a general peon).
I had a big crush on Kathleen Turner, never watched her in the soaps but I've followed her movie career, it was her and Diane Lane. 😁
When I saw her in "Body Heat" I almost melted.
"Joan Wilder" is a made-up name for this movie. So I know I've never read any of her books, and neither has anybody else... 😁
The scene where her sister gets knocked out and kidnapped is the malecón, the harbor drive in the port of Veracruz. The castle is San Juán de Ulúa, the old Spanish fort. Well, some of it is...
Mostly what we have in México is caymán, rather than alligators.
Yes, you pronounced Cartagena just fine, but of course Cartagena is in Colombia, which is where this movie is set. The locations and most of the local actors and the party at the town square are all Mexican however. It's a beautiful and very varied country.
As for "Quan-TEE-co", I don't know where you're getting that from. Quantico Virginia was not named through Spanish influence.
"American Express...?"
Karl Malden, who played his senior partner in the TV show "The Streets of San Francisco", used to do commercials for American Express traveler's checks.
Moisture doesn't make a rock face any softer. It does however make them slippery. I know, I've climbed plenty of rocks in the Marine Corps.
"... I went to college..."
I've used that line a lot since then... that, and "very tasty..." 😁
No snake doesn't taste like chicken. It tastes like snake. Still very good, though.
You forgot to show his new boots... guess where the leather came from... 😎
You're right, you'll never see a sailboat being towed with the mast and rigging stepped, much less with sails hoisted. Pure Hollywood. I don't know how they arranged this scene in New York, I worked only in México.
So, are you gonna watch the sequel, "The Jewel of the Nile"? Not as good maybe, but still fun.
Another great one with Michael Douglas, Kathleen Turner, and Danny DeVito is "The War of the Roses", but that one goes in a totally different direction. Up to you. Or at least watch "Body Heat", it's a good thriller, she costars with William Hurt, Ted Danson, and Richard Crenna from "First Blood".
So I'd say my favorite adventure scene is the very begging when they first meet and deal with both the torrential downpour in the rain forest and end up in the crashed drug plane, a lot of hilarious moments...
"Oh, man, the Doobie Brothers broke up!"
"You HAVE been down here a long time, haven't you?"
I agree, the little mule scene.
Yes, check out The Jewel of the Nile.
I remember seeing this as a child and thinking, "That guy is buff." 🤣
My wife and I where only about 5 years old when this movie came out but we found together and loved especially the dance scene . My wife passed away about 5 years ago every time I see anything on this makes me think of her
Need a hand putting himself out - loved this joke.
Y’all are one of the cutest, sweetest, couples:)♥️😎🤗. Thank you for all the fun times you bring us! And, Happy Mother’s Day to Mrs. Movies!:)
This movie was filmed in Veracruz México, You can see mexican actors , Manuel Ojeda ( scary guy), Alfonso Arau ( drugdealer fan) , Chachita , Zamorita and others
“The Game” with Michael Douglas and Sean Penn. suspense/thriller
Loved the reaction. I remember seeing this movie in '84 on a family vacation in Florida. A little bonus for me was getting to see the trailer for (still unreleased) Temple of Doom. A little trivia for you Mr. Movie, after the blizzard of 1988 (which was essentially a snow hurricane) New York city moved all their power lines underground. So, wires for the boat were not an issue. :)
1988? You mean four years *after* the movie was made?
hey Thats interesting facts as I lived in a house in a BOROUGH and experienced a few big BLizzards in NYC goin back to early 70's as a kid. I always wondered what year that NYC started doing that as I moved out to an apartment in 91.
Still were . This was 83-84.
@@snorpenbass4196 that scene with huge sailboat was done in Manhattan very early n the morning and all power lines had already been installed underground, especially within all the areas of skyscrapers yrs before
@@snorpenbass4196 Sorry I meant 1888! Very famous blizzard. I received a book on historical disasters one Christmas and this one always stuck out to me.
Cool reaction as always Mr. & Mrs. Movies, please watch Jewel Of The Nile, a continuation of this film, that follows Douglas & Turner, you both take care
Yep that is chandlers dad. U really should watch War of the roses starring these two it's brilliant movie truly underated movie.
This was Robert Zemeckis’s last chance for a hit, because of this movie being a success he got the chance to do Back to the Future. Check out Used Cars, the film he directed before this one.
I LOVE Used Cars! Kurt Russel is hysterical in it.
What did you do, wake up this morning and say today I'm going to ruin a man's life?
Don't they all do that? ;)
24:41 Danny Devito plays the Penguin in Batman Returns (1992).
Kathleen Turner is great. She is the voice of Jessica Rabbit in the Roger Rabbit movie.
Look at those snappers, ME! Great movie!
I love this movie, and the sequel. It must have been difficult to edit for TH-cam though, because it has a ton of music. :D
O man one of my favorite memories of when my house only recently got cable hooked up, and we had The Movie Channel playing stuff like this.
One of the best 80’s films. Action, adventure, comedy, romance. I miss this era of Hollywood.
10:32 Please don't tell me I'm the only one who gets this joke?
I really miss ridiculous car jumps. I mean real ones.
If you like Chandler Bing's dad, check out Undercover Blues. Stanley Tucci's greatest role ever.
If y'all enjoyed this, you'll probably enjoy The Jewel of the Nile as well. Danny DeVito gets a larger role and some big laughs.
Yes!
The is also a third movie with Douglas, Turner, & DeVito called "War of the Roses" that is not related to these films. I would highly recommend THAT one as well.
That one's right up there with "Big Trouble in Little China" :-)
The snake on the plane is not a bushmaster, despite what Jack says.
Hey guys. Loved this when it came out. I'd highly recommend Kathleen Turner at her most beautiful in "BODY HEAT" with William Hurt and Ted Danson. Talk about sultry and a thriller to boot. Love your reactions.
Love!!!
“‘The’ Joan Wilder?!”
The difference between crocodiles and alligators are many - mainly the snout, which is shorter on alligators, and the size - crocodiles grow much bigger. There's also a few more species that have very unique-looking snouts, due to their main diets. Caimans, gharials (also known as gavials), etcetera.
A highly underrated movie.
they unfortunately rarely make movies like this anymore. this movie and its sequel Jewel of the Nile are classic adventure movies. if you like movies like this but haven't seen Sahara (2005), i highly recommend it
Jungle cruise... the lost city...
This is probably the only RomCom I like. You know a movie is going to be good when the first face you see is Ted White aka Jason from Friday the 13th the Final Chapter!
There are some good... well, decent ones like Sweet Home Alabama, 10 Things I Hate About You, How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days, Only You, That Old Feeling and Someone Like You.
Six Days Seven Nights is a bit like this one, "non-chick-flick".
I love this and have watched it many times. Kathleen Turner is good in Serial Mom and I even like Peggy Sue Got Married though I fast forward through parts of it nowadays.
Fun Fact: The actor playing Grogan in the opening western sequence is long time actor/stuntman Ted White, who was a stunt double for actors like John Wayne and Clark Gable, and most famously played Jason Voorhees in Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter.
A Grasshopper is creme de menthe and creme de cacao.
The part about American Express was a joke. Michael Douglas was in a tv show called The Streets of San Franciso with Karl Malden. Karl Malden was a spokesman and did commercials for American Express.
Actually a pretty decent movie for a romance ........ gotta watch Jewel of the Nile and War of the Roses
Mr and Mrs now this is Nostalgia. 😊
Will you do the sequel at some point, jewel of the nile?
Man I miss 80s movies
As I recall the boat in NY city streets was done on the same route that they use for the Macys' Thanksgiving Day Parade. No overhead lines and the streetlights can just be turned to be out of the way of all of the big ballon handlers lines. Still, they did have to dismantle the sale to get the boat "on set" and their permit would only allow them to shoot one city block.
My personal favorite Kathleen Turner film is "Undercover Blues" which also introduced me to Stanley Tucci as "MUERTE" "... you mean, death?" Laughed my ass off at him in that movie! He really stole the show! I actually thought he was Latino!
Something I recently learned,
If their snoot is pointed like an "A", it is a crocodile.
If their snoot is rounded like a "C", is is an alligator.
I just said on your Leatherface video you should watch something fun Like Romancing The Stone. If it wasn't for this movie Back to the Future never would have been made.
Sweet! Another classic! Skippy! Popcorn! Let's get it!😎🍻🍷🚬👍👀
I loved this movie so much, my mom used to watch it all the time, The sequel is decent, just a great jungle adventure/ romance movie. Have you guys seen Quigley Down under?
0:04 is the most married thing I've ever heard! 😆 I love you guys! Love this movie! Glad you liked it. Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.
:D
I love this movie. Just pure fun, cheesy, and entertaining.
Is this a joke? This is the worst trash I ever seen
Why did I think this was George of the jungle with Brandon Frazer from the thumbnail 😭
I remember thinking the sequel was terrible but it actually hsd a higher box office. I saw it as a kid, so maybe I would appreciate it more as an adult. But I didn't have a problem with the first movie.
fun film. great reaction! love the reactions to romantic comedy.
You should give
Grosse Pointe Blank, a watch.
Another rom com but so good.
You'll love it.👍
I have fond memories of seeing this in college .. I spent a lot of time at the movie theaters, seeing 2 or 3 every weekend for a couple of years there... good times, unlimited budgets
"Is that Chandler Bing's dad?" I'm screaming haha
Can I suggest Foul Play? It’s a funny mystery, with a little romance
I love this movie. Probably seen it a million times since I was a kid.
I have the novelisation of this and its made to look like a book by Joan Wilder.
Love the 80’s content. Please watch War of the Roses.
11:45 And that's how Michael Douglass got cancer.
Great flick.....You're onto the goodies now
What A Cheesey,Yet Iconic Rom\Com!🙈🤯😱🥰💥👨❤️💋👨💗🖥
Never had snake but I've had eel. That actually does taste like chicken, as long as you don't think about what animal it's from.
2:24 fun fact thats stunt man Ted White Aka Jason Voorhees from Part 4
Kathleen Turner was great in V.A. Warshawski.
Not only is she Chandler Bing’s father, she is also Jessica Rabbit in Who Framed Roger Rabbit, uncredited though.
Hey guys you should check out
“War of the roses” the same three actors star in it. Including Danny Devito. Great movie. Check it out
RED & RED 2 is an easy follow 👌
FYI folks: Colombia is rainy specially in its Amazon region. Here in my country (Brazil) it was released as "Tudo por uma Esmeralda". Something like "Everything for an Emerald". Anyways, a great adventure comedy to watch. Love you 2 guys ✌️😎🇧🇷
Hey guys!!!
You know there is a third movie with all three once again, it's called War of the Roses,
Fine movie from my youth, Danny Devito sort of stole the show. Funny guy!
I love this movie so much so glad you've reacted to it!
