The visuals in this movie we're just so mind-blowing to me.
Gorgeous, I know! They should’ve been music videos.
SunBunz he did direct music videos. He did REMs losing my religion video! (Love that song and video btw) look it up here on TH-cam if you’ve never seen it! It’s striking as well.
For real. I’ll never forget it
The costume design and visuals in this movie were some of the most beautiful I've seen. They did a wonderful job, even rewatching it doesn't look as dated as it could.
one of the only problems is that this movie was made in 2000 when directors were super stoked to use 3D renderings and CGI in movies because it was new tech that had a ton of potential. they were just a little too early of adopters for things like this. it's not that bad in this movie but a few things probably should have been practical vfx. if there was a way for the Demon King scene with the purple cape on the wall to have been done practically, it would be 1000000% more insane. some other stuff is just pure surrealist so a bit of uncanny CGI fine.
I liked this movie a lot. I disagree with the Nostalgia Critic review. The New Bee review was good
Please tell me I didn't make any of the same jokes
@@theNewBee You made a joke? 😉
@@theNewBee the NC repeated the same joke throughout his whole review. Loudly.
"Be disturbed." "Aaaaah!"
This is a good movie, too bad the same can't be said for it's sequel. 🧐
Do something productive...Clean, Help the elderly, practice a new skill, learn a new language ...Nah Im going to stare at my screen for 30 mins while I wait for newbees new review to premier
The script is kinda messy but it's worth watching for Vincent D'Onofrio's performance and the crazy sets and visuals.
This movie was so unique and scary! I felt so sorry for the kid being beaten/tormented by his father.
yes and its not the kid its the psyco that vas tortured :)
This is really the ultimate style over substance movie, but the style's so impressive it works anyway.
I hate REM, but man, I laughed at the Losing My Religion joke. Nicely done as always. :-)
Trent Reznor 😂 and Doctor who theme!! And the REM music video directing reference! This is by far my favourite review of a movie!
I mistakingly took a shitload of LSD and saw this in the theater. By myself. I was too freaked out to even get up and leave. Sure there's some cheesy parts. But a visually stunning and very underrated movie as a whole.
I was on ecstasy!! 😂😂😂
Watched The Cell in theatres -
I still think about that horse scene occasionally YEARS later.
Hauntingly disturbing film.
Loved it
Same!! 🐎😳
you play destiny recently?
“There’s always room for J-Lo”
Genius.
Please splain!?
Jafuni “there’s always room for jello” is a quote from Ghostbusters 2
It was an old Jello ad campaign
theNewBee Reviews ha. And here I was thinking you were making obscure ghostbusters references.
(Ad not in Australia.)
jimmyoats gotcha thanks!!
Where's pitbull? Newbees is comedy gold 😂
Ikr 😬
I remember when I was 8 and staying up when I wasn't supposed to, my parents were watching this movie in the lounge, me peeking from the hallway, regretted it, this movie terrified me but goes to show how good it is
God, where were you ??? I missed your puns and jokes
Work, California fires, computer problems, a lot has been going on
@@theNewBee 😫😫👌👌❤❤ keep up the good work, i hope those fires are stopped soon
@@theNewBee
Good luck and "bee" safe :)
I feel dirty....
I will never forget this film, and have no desire to watch it twice. There was one particular scene where people are watching an execution tape. There's a woman slowly drowning in a glass cell and she starts crying pathetically for her mother. The gore of this film was manageable, but that part deeply disturbed me. Too real.
Despite reviews, I liked this movie. Mainly, the visuals, costumes and music. (The costumes were designed by Award-winning Eiko Ishioka, the same woman who designed the costumes in Bram Stoker's Dracula, and it shows!) Jennifer and Vincent's acting were excellent. (Vaughn was...meh) The plot is basically an edgier Silence of the Lambs. They're almost exactly alike! But overall, I know the plot is kind of ridiculous, but it had potential, though! Kind of a let-down. The director should stick to music videos, because the "operatic" visuals and sets are badass.
Your jokes are all on-point, that's why I subbed. Love all the references, too. I busted out laughing most right here: 8:31 I dunno why. 😂 Great video! Keep it up, Bee!
Vaughn was miscast. Good call.
I know some people give this movie grief--I've personally never seen it--but you can't say Tarsem doesn't know how to create incredible visuals and worlds. My favorite of his films is called "The Fall"; it's stunning to look at and a truly mesmerizing story. The guy may have some weird ideas, but he's definitely an artist. Great review as always, NewBee!!
I think Eiko Ishioka should get alot of the credit for bringing this films look to life. If you've seen Bram Stokers Dracula and then watch the cell you can tell instantly who's style it was.
To be truthful.. I cannot stand Vince Vaughn never closing his mouth...
I have seen this movie multiple times and never noticed that until I read you comment and now I can’t unsee it 😆
I love this movie cause it's so stunning and completely weird. Nauseating and beautiful. Everyone pissed on it when it came out so I pretended not to like it for years. And now I'M FREE. GIGLI was the real nightmare.
Seriously! Gili makes baby Jesus cry
I've seen this movie a few times, but I only watched it once while on mushrooms. The movie is made for tripping and I recommend that you watch it that way. It was fucking awesome. The trip that is. lol lol
Take this advice with caution. There are some VERY dark scenes in this movie, like women getting drowned in glass cells.
Sounds fucking awesome.
I couldn't watch this movie as a kid because it was "for adults". I watched it as an adult and don't remember anything about it!
I totally can relate. I feel like I've seen this movie, yet I can't remember if I did. 😹
Loving those twizzler suits of theirs
😉😆
I accidentally stumbled upon this movie, channel surfing on cable TV. I was maybe 6 or 7 at the time. I was in awe of the beautiful visuals and in utter terror of the horrifying and ghastly actions and sets depicted. Truly a movie that never left me and to this day still sparks my imagination and shakes me to my soul.
Down in Fraggle Rock. Remember that have a whole society that depends on Bob the Builder type entities to build an infrastructure that they can eat.
So... they are parasites. Living off of the doozers while contributing nothing and even potentially causing harm
@@planexshifter the Doozers love when Fraggles eat their buildings, because they enjoy their creations having a purpose. it's canon
Loved this movie when I was little and still love it as an adult
Only found your channel a few days ago and have been binge watching your vids. Love your humor
Visually and concept-wise this is one of my most favorite movies! I just hate how rushed the very ending feels.
Another great review. I needed a good laugh and this popped up at just the right time. One suggestion, next review should be The Exorcist. I would love to see your take on this classic.
Ok. Them not actually using the "3 Stooges Hello" Gag in the actual movie... That should be a literal CRIME!
This is a great review....original (seen others on the same movie), insightful, and funny. Respect!
I definitly remember quite enjoying this movie when i watched it, enough to kinda wish they had expanded on this concept. Sadly to say when i found out about it’s sequel, it didnt do that. Hell it even really wasnt a good procedural.
I've always thought this movie was kind of fascinating, I'm glad you reviewed it
This will be up in my country at 2am... sleep can wait
Fragles? Missed opp to say a Flock of Seagulls had to die for that outfit
My heart belongs to Fraggle Rock
Dance yours cares away
Worry for another day
Let the music play-
Your pop culture reference jokes are firing on all cylinders and I LOVE IT!! Thanks for the Big Trouble Little China Lo pan joke 😆 You are a gem!
I legit snorted at LOPAN too
The visuals of the cell elevates it from its flaws. I really enjoyed this movie and the ideas it tries to exploit.
I just wished for more of the mind stuff, less real world.
@@theNewBee yep I commented before the video was over. My bad. I recently watched the nostalgia critic BASH this movie through and through and I was still a bit angry about that. New suscriber here. Wish I would have discovered your channel sooner. And I had never heard of The Fall, just watched the trailer.
Thanks for making me discovering stuff.
English is not my first language so sorry for amy mistakes.
Long live your channel !
4:53 I worked on a video shoot (P. Diddy, Notorious) where her entourage told the crew not to look at her, much less talk to her.
I keep hearing that about too many celebs. That is amazingly idiotic. They want the fortune, but the fame means interacting with people, the reason for their fame in the first place.
@@theNewBee It made things a little tense, but we had some good laughs about getting fired for sneaking a peek at her ass. Mariah Carey, same thing. They really stood out in contrast to the cool, appreciative celebrities we worked with.
I always wondered how much money it would take for me to develop that big of a stick up my ass. 😂
I want to be rich but I’d never ever want to be famous... fuck that.
I wish I dreamt in music video aesthetics like this. Thanks for another great review, NewBee! :)
Does anybody remember that movie Coma from the 1980s?
Hi I'm a new subscriber and already watched quite a few of your videos, I love your reviews and you're funny too! This was always one of my favorite movies as a child. I'm not sure if it's nostalgia or what but the visuals are amazing, the serial killer story has been done before but not quite the way that they depicted it in this movie, I often found myself somewhat sympathetic to him but also disgusted. The ability to be inside a killer's mind I think anyone who's interested in true crime. Also I thought Vince Vaughn and Jennifer Lopez had really good chemistry and Vincent D'Onofrio played a fantastically twisted killer. Thanks for reviewing this I recently just watched this myself. :)
loved your way of reviewing man... subscribing
while i wasn't a huge fan of the movie, nostalgia critics review WAS BLODDY OBNOXIOUS, i like your more laid back thoughtful review
Reminder ON 🙂
This movie was amazing. I mean really a trip.
The visuals are next level.
If JLo is the doctor that specializes in this treatment, and her patients are kids, how is it that they have a bunch of suits that fit adult men lying around?
I guess because she's not immortal and might have an accident so another doc could pick up where she left off...? Apart form that, the logical thing to do would be to produce a few suits to fit both genders so they could frequently change them for hygenic reasons. There ya go
They're actually one size fits all and ULTRA stretchy. When you take them out of the closet, they look no bigger than a toddler's onsie.
Get that mental image of a full sized man squeezing into one out of your head now Muahahaha!
Acid Roof Productions You’re a monster! Damn you! 😂
JLo wasn't the original person for the job. They interviewed others so I'm sure males have applied. They also tried to have two doctors during a session.
@@acidroofproductions9378 perv
5:01 / 11:05 Or as The Nostalgia Critic put it: "Be disturbed."
10:53 Not technically "murder."
13:15 "Pee-Wee's S&M Dungeon"
I've seen all of Tarsem Singh's movies and I'm not that enamored with him. But my God, his movie THE FALL is a masterpiece. And on reflection, The Cell is pretty spectacular looking. Worth more than twats like the Nostalgia Critic would have you believe.
And has J-Lo ever looked better?
Her ass is fantASStic in this.
This was very much more of an artsy horror rather than what ever the nostalgia critic would like
It's very much an "All style, no substance" kind of film, but sometimes that's what I want. Like The Neon Demon. Nothing wrong with "watching" a movie every now and then. :-)
Heather Whitmer if anything its a movie you need to dissect than have it told to you directly. A lot of the transformers movies are more style than substance
@@MrTrombonebandgeek I see what your saying, but I personally don't think the Cell qualifies as a film you need to dissect. Like NewBee said, there's nothing subtle about this film; in fact it screams its meanings at you at the top of its lungs. "Style over Substance" does not mean you can't be picky about the style. It's like choosing between a poster of pop-art Harley Quinn of a poster of Picasso's Guernica. They're both just posters, but do you want a trendy cash grab that appeals to it's fanbase, or something artsier. Depends on the person.
"Better play along. Or she will f-ing murder you!" 😂😂😂😂
As if i couldnt love this channel anymore!!
Awesome.. Love the Dexter reference!
reedit:Noooooooooo i didn't the original edit as you gave me the heart. Fml
Compared to McAvoys performanc in Split, Vincent's performance here is much more conveincing to me, I never heard of this movie before, but I like it already. And the religoius forshadowing is interseting too. Thanks for the Review Tom.
Noooo, just no. McAvoy was fantastic in “Split”.
This was actually a lot better than it should have been...your villain is brilliant, he's SO damn good in just about everything...JLo really surprised me, with the level of warmth she displayed....
I'm at 🎸🎸🎸🎸 out of 5...
Highly recommend to see it at least once!!
Awesome vid, as always!!
Jake Weber is in this! Joe Dubois! I literally didn’t know until recently, he looked quite different to the way he looked in Medium. This is an exceptionally surreal film, it looks incredible and Vincent D’Onofrio is amazing. J. Lo was good! It’s a beautiful film to watch, even if it was scary.
LOVE LOVE LOVE the Cell!!
I like to watch this movie, Jeepers Creepers, and Event Horizon at Halloween every year.
That way I have something for prettymuch everyone at the party🙂🤙
I'm glad that someone else also liked this movie. I love it. V.D. is very good, JLo is sexy as usual and the visuals are fantastic, some of the nature scenes in the dream world remind me of those old surrealist Smirnoff ads.
I feel like the cell was going for a nature vs nurture message here. The serial killer was probably always gonna be a little messed up and violent but they seem to hint that it was his abusive and violent upbringing that was the tipping point
Ahh, I missed this man. The constant quips and jokes are just unparalleled!!
"Is that a boat made 4 ants?!" 😂
"There's always room 4 J-Lo" 🤣
Damn that Trent Reznor slip though, made me chuckle!
Your movie reviews are awesome 😁 please do them more often if possible ❤️
Could you review The Platform?
Awesome Review and great choice of movie to do! I always thought of it as a wonderful eye-candy movie, plot-wise merely meh. Can't wait for the next one, take care of yourself!
I totally didn't know that was Vincent !! Love him 💯 Amazing actor !!
I got this one mixed up with Zoolander.
I'm sober now, though.
I loved this movie, the visuals man..whew!!
Gotta tell ya, I don’t like gory, bloody, torture, etc, movies, and shy away from watching them. However, your reviews about these movies is total entertainment! Love watching them - your comments crack me up!!!!!
What does the term "Spoiler" mean?
Yay! The NewBee Reviews is back!!
Would love the costume designer for this movie to make my prom dress
nezquick or my wedding dress! (That scene where his purple cape is pulled from the walls! GORGEOUS 😍) also really love all the body jewelry and pieces they came up with.
Boy you had fun with this one lol. I actually love the imagery of this film, its hypnotically beautiful but also vibrantly in your face.
Perfect explanation, definatly coming back here for more reviews. Thx so much!!
More New Newbie Reviews!
Plus
Love The Baby Yoda's! 🔥♥️😎
I've always wondered what this movie was about! Great review! As always! 👌
Thank you, I tried so hard to find this movie but the only thing I remerbered was the horse scene
FINALLY! Someone I trust reviews this movie!!
Plot twist, the killer took control of her mind, she is the killer.
You have an excellent sense of humor!
This is without a doubt one of the most beautiful shot movies I've seen.the pacing and color choises are brilliant.
4:23 I'm not sure why you're craving crab because I'm craving Zingers!!!
Omfg I forgot all about Zingers! 😂😋
You do NOT know how damn long I've been wanting to know the name of this movie.
where do you find these movies? it is impressive
I saw this on ecstasy. Visuals were amazing. Yeah, the real world is bland compared to the dream world.
This movie is like a surreal dream. It's disturbingly beautiful.
Omg, my insurance would NEVER
Can someone explain to me what’s going on with the space bees saying “after these messages, we’ll be back”?
I don’t have youtube premium or youtube red, never had never tried or done trials, but for some reason my Account doesn’t get ads. It’s not the phone cause I’ve had multiple phones and when I’m not logged in I get ads. So I don’t know if there’s supposed to be an add after the space bees and I just can’t see it for some weird reason regarding my account or what..?
Do you have an ad blocker? I won't be mad lol
As someone who does plumbing on a regular basis that toilet would have meant that room would never be able to fill with water
Wait wait was that bald guy the same guy that played the host body in Identity? Also please review 2003 Identity
Yes. Yes. YES!! Thank you for knowing that! How interesting that he's in two different mindshift/murderous multiple character movies. I hope he reviews Identity too!
What`s the music at the end? Me likey :)
This was the most trippiest film, I’ve ever seen, as it was interesting, in a shocking, bizarre, yet beautiful, in an acceptable, kind of way.
And for all of us who’ve watched you long enough.... we know better than to wonder what runs thru your head 🤣🤣🤣
See, this is why I keep some weight on me. You can't just sneak up and pick my fat ass up and don't think we both won't be on the ground afterwards.
You managed to get two of my favorite things into this review... doctor who and the three stooges 😂😂😂😂 great review.
OMG The jokes are HILARIOUS XD
Great review of The Cell, that was a very different and artistic movie. In my dreamworld, I am the Darth Sidious of my galaxy.
It took me like half the video to figure out but young Carl is played by the guy who played Hilary Duff's little brother on Lizzie McGuire
What's up with the boarder is that it was trippy as phuck for me when I was on shooms watching this.
You deserve WAYYYY more subs what the fuck
The ‘Ha! They took her skin!’ bit caught me off guard. I really liked the movie visually and found it quite disturbing, but the script and plot didn’t completely attract me, but I don’t find it a bad movie at all.
😧 the movie review hasn’t even started, and yet that man with the corn-drill and broken teeth already has my jaw on the ground
One of my faves. Happy to see you review it!
