38:32 & 42:15 It's a minor detail, but notice how Brightbill asks Roz what the other robots were saying, since the animals don't understand English.
This movie is a masterpiece. I hope they win at the Oscar’s
if they don´t its rigged
this film is up for more than ONE OSCAR ! Oh YES ! xoxoxoxoxooxoxoxo
As a single parent, this film just Hits every mark for the struggle to raise a child. And, better, my kid saw positive things for himself, about maintaining effort through persistence.
28:49 you guys are the FIRST I’ve seen point out how Fink thought Roz might be talking about him, so many people miss it.
My wife caught that too when we watched. Started feeling bummed for Fink.
@@nEthing4Her I caught it immediately and I felt so sad for him the whole film
I noticed that during movie too
YES I CAUGHT THAT 😭😭 which just made my heart break for fink when he did his lil monologue when rozz left
@@jimjimcherie finally someone talks about it
To quote Sarah Conner
"If a machine can learn the value of life, maybe we can too."
Long Neck was the G. Respects for a great character.
G for goose
Indeed
👍
😔
"Kindness is her love language." Well said
My mother passed away on February she suffered an aneurysm and was on a coma state for 3 days, the scene were brightbill starts talking to his mom while she is unconscious and telling her "I love you, mom" did hit me hard, I've been on the same situation for those 3 days hoping I could get a response that never came, so glad it went different in this movie. Got into the theater waiting for just another kids movie and left having one of the best feelings and smile on my face after this piece of art.
My mom had 2 aneurysms and a stroke 10 years and 2 days ago, against all odds and thanks to the hands of a great surgeon she survived. While I might not understand your loss, I understand those three days for we didn’t know she’d make it. I’m so sorry for your loss, I hope time will heal you and grant you peace.
I'm sorry for your loss
I cried most of the film. I went with two of my best friends. one of them her family lives in a different country, I almost lost my mom 10 years ago to an aneurysm+stroke combo, and my other best friend lost her dad suddenly earlier this year. When Fink said at the end ”what if I want to tell you something and you’re not there?” We all started sobbing as we held onto each other. This film was beautiful.
@@jimjimcherie So simple and so effective.
@@Probablylani So, so good. This move talks about losss way too well.
DreamWorks knocked it out the park again, such a beautifully heartfelt movie.
They are the masters of heartfelt movies and gut punching moments 😂🤌🏽
I liked WALL-E, but I LOVED this movie. So glad I saw it in theaters.
One thing you might notice, is how as the film progresses Roz's voice starts sounding less robotic and more human
Also all of the geese have different colored eyes
Brightbills eyes are green
Longnecks are blue
The bully geese are orange
And the female goose brightbill talks to had yellow eyes.
@@mckenzie.latham91 One of the things I really liked is even before the movie really progresses, u can tell Rozz is different. She feels a sense of fear and self preservation, something that robots really don't have. Even if it was programmed, when trying to help the animals, she does show confusion.
Also, when the other robots talk to Roz, Brightbill asks her what they were saying, since the animals don't understand English.
You don’t even realize how much her voice has changed until she meets Rummage. There’s a stark contrast between them despite both being voiced by Lupita.
@@MasterBuilderDragon Yes the different use of cadence between her and rummage is a great way of showing the changes in her.
I have a question, at the end of the movie when the robot said, "You can call be roz" did she have her complete memory or was she rebooted, because she sounded like she lost that human emotion and sounded more like her original Robot form, you know what I mean😅
I cried like I was in a funeral watching this movie
@@Dark_Armywr YES
why though? I thought this was terrible and I'm so confused about why people love it. Mind you, movies like Big Hero 6 and Lilo and Stitch make me sob like a child every time I watch them. I thought this movie was so insanely rushed and all the big important moments happened so fast for some reason. Longneck appeared out of nowhere and hand a handful of lines and BOOM migration okay bye guys then he dies...
I truly don't get it..
@@xhelan131 this movie is special and sensitive. Something I liked is that they treated wildlife as what it is. Animals are vulnerable, they are preyed upon, they live and die suddenly because that's how life is. The conection between a mother who doesn't know is she's doing a good job raising her kid but she tries to be the best mother his kid deserves. She literally ripped her own heart to protect him.
@@xhelan131I understand if you dislike it but saying something is terrible is a bit much. Might need to lower your standards a bit and find the beauty in it. Seriously. Try it. Too many people have high standards after what they've watched. Quality can only do up so much after so much has been done.
@@GuardianTiger its not a "bit much" because it's my opinion lmao I think they did a horrible job with this.
I love how her voice becomes more expressive when the time jump happens
11:06 that about Runts,which are the smallest of a group of baby animals of 1 kind are usually the ones who struggle to compete with older siblings and sometimes don't make it to adulthood it's very common for animals that have litters like pigs,foxes,raccoons, birds and other animals that breed more than 3 babies
I cried three times watching this! It was so gorgeous! What a beautiful movie! The music, the characters, the acting, the animation! Everything was perfect! I loved it so much! 10-10!
I cried the whole film
@@jimjimcherie same. I knew I had to bring tissues and I used all of them to wipe my tears. I even sobbed during the credits
@@kristianbanks6450 I feel you! I watched at the theater with 2 of my besties we were all a mess
@@jimjimcherie my mom hugged me whenever I cried🥹 I loved this movie and I’m so excited for the sequel
YES LIKE I CRIED DURING THE MIDDLE AND LIKE A FEW TIMES AT THE END oh and at the beginning when he said "your not my mom" so sad 😭😭
24:56 - Anyone who can watch from the part where Longneck lets Brightbill know just how much Roz has done for him, then Bright bill leaves and
Fink goes to ground for the winter thinking he'll never see Roz again.... without crying, then YOU are a robot !
This is the best movie I've seen in years, animated or otherwise.
I really love the emotions and love these animals express to Roz, even after how they treated her. They understood now that she was just trying to help them, ever since she got to their island.❤❤❤❤❤❤
I think parents and young adults will get the more out of it t than children. Just cause we grow up and we move closer to losing our parents and truly understand their sacrifice and love shown. Fierce good movie
42:38 roz took the robot heart and replaced it with her heart
Such a good movie, I cried like a baby throughout. So many moments pulled just right on the heart strings. Also has to be said that the voice cast were all phenomenal, solid performances and each one perfect for the character they were voicing.
glad to know i'm not the only who cried like a baby at this movie :')
I loved that both of y’all had tears when Brightbill was leaving and throughout the rest of the movie 😢
It’s just a travesty that it was only in theaters for a few weeks before it went to digital too. Like this shoulda been strictly theatrical until the end of the year to make all the money as more people discovered it via word-of-mouth 😔
Agreed. I still went to the theater even after it released on digital bc i knew it was a theater movie.
It’s still making bank at the box office: $234 million vs a $78 million budget. Apparently there was a bump in earnings after people under 18 bought TWR tickets just to sneak in and see Terrifier 3 but hey, money is money, and a sequel is already greenlit.
We saw it twice in theaters, then watched it once at home and then went to the theaters again to see it on Tuesday 10/29
Every Time I watch this movie I cry
Such a pure joy of emotions, love and visuals
42:30 Nah, this scene is such a cheap shot to the heart, i managed to hold my tears until this part, fuck this beautiful movie
Enough to make a grown man cry 😢
I wept like a baby watching this in theatres… it came out around us on my daughter’s 8th birthday… my mom’s heaven anniversary was a few days before. This movie is amazing and let’s just say. My eyes were swollen when I walked out! Thank you for reacting.
As someone who was raised by a single mother. This movie made me ugly cry. Especially when Fink gave that speech about everyone being very unhelpful towards Roz in the beginning when she was just trying to raise her kid...🥹🥹🥹
The Wild Robot for Best Picture nomination! This movie genuinely moved me
THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN PERFECT FOR AIRING ON MOTHERS DAY!
wow. yall's reaction is so raw and genuine. i didnt even cry to the movie, which did make me cry, i cried to yall crying 😭
😭😭 lolol so true tho
I feel it is the movie for all. We found ourselves in there. Mine is when Roz sit on the edge alone in winter where everyone left her. That scene made me cry hard because I remembered the time I stayed alone in the airport and my mother stayed. there alone watching me. It was a temporary goodbye but seem like a longlife farewell. Roz’s gaze to sky is thrist of reunion.
The Wild Robot is the greatest family movie I've ever seen. It's made for parents, following Roz through her journey of raising a child. I've watched the movie four times now and have cried every time. I teared up watching with you guys. Five for five
When i watched this in the movie theater I know for a fact everyone was crying I could hear sniffing laughing like it was paradise
I watched it 2 days ago and I'm still crying 😭 this is the Oscar winner of 2025
Y’all should have seen me watching this in the theater I was bawling my eyes out the wild robot in my opinion is an animation masterpiece.
DreamWorks: How much heart and soul should we put into The Wild Robot?
Chris Sanders: YES! 'Then proceeds to pour gallons of heart and soul into it'
Literally bawled through the whole movie, it was so beautiful!
You know its a good kids movie when your wishing its something you grew up with while watching. Thats what I was thinking in the theaters, I wish I grew up with this movie!
@@joeysnowynoey It's not really a kids movie. It's a film for kids, adults and any that wants to feel something. It's a masterpiece in my book and I just saw it a few days ago.
@ I don’t think calling it a kids movie is bad or anything. I guess family movie is more accurate.
The most emotional movie of the year !
Did the mistake of going with my Mum to watch this... we sobbed the WHOLE movie 😂
38:35 “tell them your already home” tears bro 😂
Top 5 best animated film I’ve ever seen
32:40-32:48
Skunk: What are you doing here, jerk?
Fink: Bummer. This one's dead.
Roz: That is _not_ funny.
Me: Are you kidding? It's a riot. 😂
I saw this in an audience preview early this year, parts were still in storyboard, and it still was so moving. I went to the theater this week to see it in its finished form and loved it. I even feel they clarified some things i wrote in my survey 😝. I feel it was better in a theater than itd be watching at home, but im glad u at least saw it.
Epic movie
Just completed watching the movie, it was great
This movie was phenomenal
Also last comment but they do a very great job at bringing up the really big topics that most people don't want to talk about in an animation movie like Parenthood, the ability to choose family over your given family there's a big difference in sometimes the family you choose versus the one you give is far greater, also kind of touches on the topic of adoption if you want to think that way, growing up,, they also do a great job with death and the ability of letting go as well as what nature is really like and the circle of life it literally just captures so much and so little time I wish the movie was longer😅
40:50 that childlike smile....
Such a genuine expression
"Sooo snake-like, I don't like her at all!"
Fuckin right!? Whole time she's slithering around I'm just like, "Yo get yo arms off my girl Rozz 🤨"
MASTERPIECE!
43:34 Goddamn when I first heard this line, it hit me like a brick 😭😭😭
Such a masterpiece of a film
Dreamworks doing what Disney hasn’t been able in a while
So crazy that Fink was voiced by Pedro _'Mando'_ Pascal. GREAT reaction, you two. New sub.
I knew it was him bc listen to him alot, but my dad had no idea. Pedro usually uses a lower more serious voice in his projects, this is closer to pedro as himself irl which is adorable.
@@laurenbendik2006 Haha his real voice is closer to the Viper in _GoT_ than in _Mando_ haha
@@nEthing4Her and the bear is voiced by Mark Hamill “Luke Skywalker “
@@valdivia8383 And Longneck was Davy Jones 🏴☠
This is the best reaction to the movie, you guys reacted just like me! And the final commentary it's so good and made me reflect even more on this fantastic movie, thank you!
Not me crying along with you 😭
This was one of the most emotional experience i have ever had in a cinema.
man this movie was literally me. i am the autistic son of a single mum i am straight up bright bill.
The ending makes me so happy!!!
Great movie!
Their reaction is already goated fr
This is my fav Wild Robot react so far. Hands down. You two are fantastic.
Literally one of the best animation movies to ever be created I would say it's definitely in the running for the best movie this year if not top five but definitely the best animation movie of this year. And it's in the top 250 of IMDb already which isn't saying much cuz it is IMDb but still that is pretty big it just came out it's up there with all the real big bangers the classics the 80s the 90s the films that people always talk about and again the movie just came out. What an amazing premise the animations are incredible the writing is incredible and it really hits home.
Lupita N'yongo! Brilliant.
38:15 the Michael Bay hero shot
I loved this movie its beautiful
Masterpiece
I love this film so much, funny, emotional, rollercoaster journey. Such a touch in the heart
Great Video. Thank you. ❤
Canadian here. If these geese are Canada geese, then yeah they are quarrelsome at best.
This was wonderful! Thank you for your genuine reaction.
Love both your reactions to this movie ❤️❤️
This movie is awesome and My favorite character is Fink and Brightbill from The Wild Robot movie
I loved this ❤
Animated movies are smashing it
Spider into the spider verse movies.
Puss in boots
Inside out movies
Super Mario Bros
Encanto
Wild Robot
Looks like the animators might finally be getting paid what they're worth. 😊
@@juliant About Inside Out movies, no they don't.
@@juliant Transformers One was good as well. Its been a great year for animation
@@juliant agree, but you forgot COCO and the croods
I cried hard watching this movie. Then I cried even harder watching this beautiful reaction video. 🫂
Oh boy, you two did great with this movie watch. I seriously went to watch this movie twice on the big screen. The previews got me big time and the movie did not disappoint!
this reaction was so fun!!!
The training arch was great! And the music too ❤❤
rockmouth is a pike i don't know much about them all i know is there a tip of fish he was a main part of the book this movie is based on (sorry about my bad spelling)
Must watch movie and it's emotional😢❤
Yesss i loved the themes surrounding found family, chosen family ❤
6:35 HEY! NO SWIPING SWIPER! 🦊
Greatest movie everrrr
IN MY TOP 1 BEST REACTION LIST❤❤❤
Just chanced upon this video. My fav people from when Jaby Koay channel was new and perhaps more fun 😂. Great to see you guys!
When I enter this movie on the google search engine...in the "Cast section", Lupita doesn't even come up as one of the main/top 7 voice actors. Do you guys get this as well? That's just odd!
I've never cried sm..
Fun and thought-provoking. Thanks for posting. 😉
The best animation i have ever watched and i do like to watch all the japanese anime so believe me i term it as a masterpiece, i cried literally my whole family cried on this movie. It really deserves an oscar
It's enough to make a grown man cry and that's okay 👍
42:31 😭
Lupita has a new podcast and was just a guest on Trevor Noah's new podcast. They had a great conversation
42:00 one piece???
They fucked up the last line. It should have been "but you can call me.... mom." I know they are referencing earlier in the film when she said "Roz" but it should have been mom. Everyone knows it. Everyone was waiting for it.
@@JohnnyJohnny-f5o agreed
21:15 - 21:19 Describe adulthood in 20 words or less 😅
18:30 that is a Pike.
How did u guys not notice🤨
Hi, loved your reaction, exactly how I felt when I first watched it! However the cast and directors list in your description is wrong. Lupita Nyong'o is the voice of Roz, Kit Connor is Brightbill, and so on.
Any movie company is better than Disney right now
