Uncle Buck: One of John Candy's Best!

- 1989's Uncle Buck is arguably John Candy's second-best movie ever. John Hughes' Planes, Trains and Automobiles is probably the film he's most remembered for, and the director/star combo worked so well they re-teamed for Uncle Buck two years later. This family comedy was the biggest hit of Candy's career. Notably, it introduced the world to Macaulay Culkin, whose precocious performance led to Home Alone a year later. Looking back at the movie now, it's a too-often ignored classic, with a Candy performance that mixes humor, pathos, and even a touch of menace (aimed at the right people, of course) in a way only the late, great actor could. It's this month's John Hughes Revisited - written, edited and narrated by Matthew Hacienda.

Uncle Buck is fantastic. So many great moments from his car making that exploding sound, the principal's office, the birthday, and many others
Introducing Bug to his Gnat shaver!
the bowling scene, showing how much he cares about his niece, even though she despises him for the majority of the film
I'll admit. I've used the "Power drill look" complete with a cigar in a few situations to great success.
That last shot of him is a heartbreaker.
Same. It’s makes me want to start crying
When he's in the car with the kids after his niece runs away. 😢
R.I.P John Hughes and John Candy. Your legacies will live on throughout your great films forever.🙏
It is by far his BEST! He did some great ones, but this one was where he shared the stage with no one competing for full attention, he was the stand alone star, and absolutely owned it! That’s not a knock on the supporting cast, they were all great, but this was his film, and he owned it and absolutely killed it!
He really was all of our Uncle Buck in the 90’s. RIP John Candy
I really loved this movie, John Candy at his most hysterical. I also liked how that single scene with Macaulay at the door singlehandedly inspired "Home Alone!"
This movie reminds me of my mom I remember her showing it to me when I was probably 6 or 7 along with trains planes and automobiles and have watched them almost every year since...they really don't make them like they used to. RIP John Candy
I so miss John Candy.
Candy was my original favorite actor as a kid. Mainly for this and Plains Trains Automobiles. I even remember exactly where I was when I learned John had died and the profound effect it had on me.
Uncle Buck & Only the Lonely are John Candy's best films.
One of my favorite films ever!
Mine too, it deserves more love, and makes me miss the fabulous John Candy!
John Candy was a genius. A kind, loving, hilarious genius.
💯💯💯
Love and dearly miss the phenomenal person and talent John Candy. Uncle Buck is one of my favourite films. Just brilliant.
I miss John Candy.
John Candy was a National Treasure, both in Canada and the United States. A terrible loss. An amazing talent.
He was the greatest in Canada and the United States.
Absolute classic.
Same. It’s a wonderful film
Uncle Buck is a classic!! ❤️🧡💛
Yeah, I think this was one of John Candy's best. You really start to feel for the guy. For me, it was when he was looking through the photo album and saw a wedding photo that was folded. He unfolded it, and saw that it was him in the pic and he was folded out of sight. Man, I really felt for him in that one, and I instantly started to dislike the wife/mother because no doubt that was her doing.
That's a good one. I love the scene where he's about to take the kids to the track after Tia leaves. The anguish on his face seems so real.
Every movie he was in was great 👍🏾
I'm 25 so it's a bit odd I can call this a childhood movie. My parents never watched it, I just loved watching Spaceballs in my mom's car and Macaulay Culkin since I watched home alone a lot as well. when I saw John candy on another cover back when itunes movies were more popular I bought it. And I watched the absolute hell out of that movie. Front to back, perfection. Even not seeing it in years by this point I can remember it super well. John, there are seldom people who have your pure raw chaotic energy but at the same time a face that instantly brings joy to everyone's face. Rest in peace John, died way way WAY too young.
One of my all time favs. Candy's greatest role.
Growing up in the 80s and 90s John Candy was just a staple of my house hold. Great Outdoors, Uncle Buck, Planes Trains and Automobiles, all classics. The world fell to sh!t when he died. It definitely became a whole lot less funny.
Uncle Buck is such a great movie. It is my favorite John Candy movie. I LOVE IT
@@danbauer3669 Yeah sorry, thank you, typed faster then my brain works
It’s tradition that I watch this movie every Thanksgiving! One of the best movies ever! Classic!
cool planes trains and automobiles i watch every thanksgiving
Uncle Buck has been in my top 5 movie list since it came out. I watch it at least once a year. Great character, great story.
John Candy was f*cking beautiful. America loved and laughed and supported him and he gave us great joy and happiness. He was a sweet soul.
I just miss John Candy. That is all.
We loved that movie when it came out and still to this day it’s one of my fav John Candy joints
Absolute movie magic right there. Great film!!!
John Candy’s death was the first “I remembered where I was when I heard the news” in my life. While that was a sad childhood memory I am thankful for all the great memories he provided.
"Buck melanoma, Moley Russell's wart!"
Beat me to it. My favourite bit.
This movie is a classic!! Roger Ebert whiffed hard on this one.
I recently revisited this movie and loved it. There are so many adult jokes, I can’t believe it used to air on the Disney channel 😮😲😲
One of the funniest human beings ever.
Same. RIP to him
Candy was a gift.
Such an underrated comedy classic. Never fails to make me cry at the end 💔💔
The whole film is so lovable and sweet. Everything from the simple story to the heart on his sleeve Candy performance to the hip-hop and Chicago soul influence score and soundtrack, this is a hugely underrated classic. John Candy is an icon gone too soon and this and Planes, Trains and Automobiles are his magnum opuses. A must see if you’ve never seen it and a constant revisit for those of us who know all about this beautiful film.
I think a lesser actor would’ve made his characters annoying to the point of being hated. You can see how offensive and annoying his character might’ve came across to others in the movies, but you can also see his heart, his sincerity.
Such a great movie! I do like John Hughes' Curly Sue but no one ever talks about that movie.
The interrogation scene and Uncle Buck hitting Bug with the golf ball are my favorite scenes!!! 😍
John candy was spectacular to be one of the sweetest uncle's to babysit the kids.
I miss John Candy!
This is an absolute masterpiece. It is funny, intelligent, and deep.
Candy's best, IMO. Also, Tone "Lock". 🤣
Out of all things the younger generation has missed, one of the biggest is John Candy. Just such a sincere and nice guy. Just like Sam Kinison, we didn't know what we had until he left us. :(
I love planes, trains, and automobiles, but Uncle Buck is one of the best movies of John Candy.
Sooo funny. Candy is so good. The principals office scene is great.
They don't make them as they used it. The gem! ❤
John candys best movie in my mind
This is not only Candy's best performance but one of the best 80's movies.
What a great movie RIP John Candy.
“Wait til you see the toast. I couldn’t even get it through the door.”
I LOVE THIS MOVIE
Legit my most favorite movie ever. A timeless classic.
5 out of 5, yeah, go Uncle Buck. A real wholesome movie with some great messages
Always my favorite from John Candy!
Really good Movie!! 👍👌😊🍁♈
RIP John Candy 😔
“By the way, I’m real sorry about those bushes. I had no idea that they’d all catch fire like that. You were right, I should have never put the barbecue that close.”
The dancing scene is pure gold..Love it.:)
John Candy was one of our greatest unappreciated Treasures when he was alive. John Candy was America's Uncle Buck.
Saw Uncle Buck in the theatre, and absolutely loved it. So many classic lines, and an underlying sense of heart. An all time classic.
I think this is my favorite Candy movie and definitely one of Hughes best. I saw it again last week and that scene with the vice-principal ( saying all those wart names) still cracks me up. this movie is just brilliant in every way. like you said, it has something for everyone
This is my favorite John Hughes and John Candy movie. I can't imagine anyone else in the cast. Tia was perfect, although i can see Wynona Rider playing a sully confused teen.
John Hughes and John Candy were the Scorsese/De Niro of classic 80s comedies
Man, you make me wanna see this again! 🥰
I once saw a TV version of Uncle Buck where they cut out the part where Buck releases Bug out his trunk and hits golf balls at him, but they kept in the scene where Buck crashes the party. So the last time the audience sees Bug, Buck is coming at him with a power drill and he's never seen or referenced again.
Really put a much darker tone to the earlier scene where Buck asks Bug, "Ever hear of a ritual killing?"
They probably would've explained it as "edited for time and content". The former makes sense, the later... in context to your description of the earlier scene, not so much. 😀
Love uncle buck classic 80's comedy and John candy was at his peak in the 80's he was just so loveable
Everyone always talked about this movie and when I finally sat down to see it I regretted not seeing it sooner. It's my go too classic
The Great Outdoors is my personal favorite one Uncle Buck is a close second
Thank you for spotlighting this film which doesn't nearly get the love it deserves. Just reinforces what a great loss to comedy John Candy was.
A Classic. We went through 2 Uncle Buck VHS tapes my sister and I watched this movie so much. John Candy was my favorite of the SNL/SCTV actors of the 80s.
0:05. Let me just say how awesome it is you added that Water Tower in the intro. As an inspector of water storage tanks I can appreciate that. I own a piece of that tower. Was on the painting project in 2020 as soon as the mask mandates started. The city thought about applying “Save Ferris” back on the tower but didn’t own the rights and it would have costed them a pretty penny. Not many people know the water tower scene from the movie because it’s so short.
John Hughes were among the best comedy writers ever, and he made lots of memorable movies in 1980's.
I still miss John Candy too. His last great comedy were Cool Runnings.
Badass movie
Grew up watching/loving this movie.
I hadn't seen it in a long time and watched it recently.... this movie holds up so well. The comedy and drama are so well balanced.
OMG! This is one of my favorite movies of all times. I love John Candy 😍😍😍😍
A bit of trivia: Jay Underwood, who played Bug, was also the Human Torch in the infamous unreleased Fantastic Four film in 1994!
He also played Chip in the cult favorite TV movie trilogy, Not Quite Human.
Let's not forget the 1990's Cartoon "Camp Candy" he voiced for as well!
One of my favorite movies of all time. seriously I can watch it over and over again.
Uncle Buck is a classic one of my favorite John Candy‘s films. It’s hilarious has a lot a heart to it you can’t really go wrong with it you can put it anytime of the day anytime of the week and it’s gonna make you feel good that’s what I love about it.. Macauley Culkin is hilarious in that movie
This film was never coarse. It made so much sense why they trusted Buck. Yeah he was a ne’er do well but they knew he would protect the kids. Then again all John Candy films had that beauty. All of his characters were beyond multidimensional.
One the best movies ever
Such a classic. Still holds up today
Was just talking about this with my family last night be used my sister had an “unbreakable” moment with a Christmas ornament
If I could live in any fictional universe, I’d choose a John Hughes film.
Like, probably hanging with the Breakfast Club, but getting to shake “Uncle Bucks” hand.. I could dig it.
when people ask my favorite movie, for a decade now i've said uncle buck
John candy was always great
great movie watch it every year
Agree. I love this movie.
Best movie ever.
RIP John Candy
This is literally one of my favorite movies.
His very best. A perfect vehicle for Candy.
I love that one Trains Airplane and cars
love this movie.. john candy is a legend.
i've said it before, i'll probably say it again, i have no idea why anyone ever listened to siskel and ebert about anything.
I’ll always love this film, no matter what and whatever Roger Ebert says is pretty much something I’ll disregard, in my opinion.
Got this one fairly recently on blu-ray. Endlessly re watchable
Damn. With decent writing, Mike Epps is perfect casting!!
3:12 Winona Ryder's greatest role was as Peg's daughter Kim in Edward Scissorhands.
I really hope one day they find the original cuts or scenes from Uncle Buck and Planes, Trains and automobiles. It adds so much development to the characters
When I heard the bad review on this movie and I knew of the cast that played in it, I had to see this movie for myself. From then on I'd never listened to another movie critic ever again!
Bello zio buck,rip ❤
