Man I loved this movie as a kid! The fact that the community came together to help her really reminded me of my own neighborhood.
Me too
Still love this movie. I watch it at least once a year. It's just so inspiring
This is a pleasant surprise to see u react to this film. I loved this film as a kid, and I still enjoy it to this day! Everyone kills it with their performances, and I love how they made spelling so fascinating.
this is one of my favorite movies! it always makes me tear up, especially when you realize that the last word Akeelah had to spell was the same one that she learned from Dr. Larabee on the first day she meets him at her school. talk about fate! thanks for another great reaction Nick ❤
5:08 Akeela’s friend meant that if she can spell as easy as Akeela then getting a job as a flying attendant will be easy too. So she basically telling Akeela to have more confidence in herself. Which is something we all need if we have a passion for a certain talent we want to improve.
I also Nick want say I appreciate how you put yourself in Akeela’s shoes. I love that you felt how she felt. That’s how you connect with the characters of a film. I’m glad I’m not the only who does that.
Oooh my oldest daughter used to love this movie!! It’s a heart warmer for sure
Thank you for watching this!!! I was in the spelling bee as a kid, I was 11. One of my friends joined with me, and when we were doing the school championship finals I flunked on purpose so he could win because I felt bad, he told me about how his life at home was really crumby and his mom was mean to him. I was so upset, I was so close to going to championships outside of the school, and I was already in Mensa and was so excited. I came home devestated...about a week later, I caught this movie on accident on TV in my garage, and watched the whole thing. I cried so hard. From beginning to end. I felt just like Akeelah, my parents were divorcing, my big sister and brother were always causing problems for my mom, and I was always bringing my chip on my shoulder with me everywhere I went just like Akeelah. I love this movie with a passion.
The best teachers are the ones who can recognise a student's learning methods, and addapt their lesson plans accordingly.
I saw this movie years after it came out and it is one of my feel good movies. She is a pretty versatile actress. She did a fantastic job with - "JUMP IN" and "THE LONGSHOTS."
Those movies were good.
Loved watching this movie in middle school during the spelling bee seasons
This movie was great! Keke Palmer, Angela Bassett and Laurence Fishburne were an amazing cast as well!
I am so happy you enjoyed this movie. I remember seeing it in the theatre and buying the movie on DVD. Definitely a feel-good gem that every young kid should watch.
I remember seeing it before Christmas in 2006, I was 13.
One of my favorite movies growing up, inspired me so much! If you’ve seen the Black Panther movies, you might recognize the actress playing Akeelah’s mother, Angela Bassett, as Ramonda, T’Challa’s mother! She and Laurence Fishburne have co-starred in quite a few movies together besides this one, including What’s Love Got to Do With It where they played Tina Turner and Ike Turner (which earned them each their first Oscar nominations!); it’s tough to watch at times but Bassett and Fishburne’s performances are both so magnetic and worth it.
Oh man! I almost forgot about this movie... such a great watch 😊
Me too.
I CANT BELIEVE I DIDN'T SEE THIS REACTION SOONER!! This is one of my favorite movies 🥰
I lovedddd this movie as a kid!! Keke Palmer is amazing! Thank you for reacting!❤❤
also, congratulations to Keke palmer she just welcomed her first child
This is one of my favorite movies! I’m so glad you reacted to this! What a great reaction too! I love how compassionate you were.
Fun fact - the spelling pronouncer Dr. Jacques Bailly played himself during the film and is still the Scripps National Spelling Bee pronouncer to this day.
He won this bee in 1980.
I was surprised when I saw the notification hahaha usually you tuber don't react to older movies and I loved this one, I'm so happy you decided to watch this movie ❤❤
I’ve never heard of this movie. I hope you liked it,Nick,
7:33 it makes me so happy when they meet. It's so cute
I just love this movie. I remember watching it when it came out but I appreciate it more now. Keke's performance is so impressive. She was like barely 13
that parallel is important in this movie -- i.e., a little girl who lost her father and a father who lost his daughter, finding one another, helping one another cope with challenges, and becoming family. i'm still not a big fan of many of the racial stereotypes portrayed in this movie, but it's still a very good film!
I love your reactions. I love too your emotions and they male me like you even more.
I heard this movie when I was 7 years old in August 2006, and now I’m 24 years old
aaaaa i love this movie!
you should watch jump in! it has keke palmer too :)

Such a good movie, I forgot Lee Thompson Young (R.I.P.) was in this..
Still waiting for Ghostbusters 2 and Ghostbusters:Afterlife.
One of my all time favourites. Thank you for this.
You NEED to react to Moulin Rouge with Nicole Kidman and Ewan McGregor. It’s a musical film which is like so beautifully strange and different than a lot of other movies. But definitely a heartbreaker, very sad but so worth the watch! ♥️
He actually did react to it a while back: th-cam.com/video/XPJ1NvYIDIc/w-d-xo.html
I enjoyed this movie when it came out. I hope it inspires kids to try their hardest.
please please react to "Freedom Writers" it is incredible you will love it!
Great movie
One of my feel good movies. Love your reaction.
This movie definitely takes me back. I used to watch it with my cousin and aunt everytime I went to their house and we used to act like them and give each other words to spell 😂
I remember watching this movie on hbo 2 years ago.
Since you liked Arthur Christmas so much, could you react to Flushed Away? It's one of my favourite movies!
Could you please react to 65 when that comes to a streaming service? It’s intense, but it’s very good. Also, you should react to Selena. Jennifer Lopez really nailed the role.
I love this movie!
And I love spelling bees! 🐝 Anybody else? 🙋♀️
