RRR movie reaction please
I would say the basic description of this movie is if you took the movie groundhogs day and mashed it together with war of the worlds
Stranger things video is probably doing the best
Props to your husband, Tyler. He has good taste. :)
Natalie I think you should watch See with Jason Momoa I'm pretty sure you would really like it
This is one of the most underappreciated movies I've ever seen. Literally a video game brought to life.
Bruh the credit song. "I need to know now, if you'll love me again."
EPIC
Well, manga/novel, but yes. Conceptually similar to respawning in a game for sure.
in so many ways this pic displays the lack of an appreciation of a classical education - this is Cassandra for Aeschylus' Oresteia from 2,500 years ago - how much have we missed by not reading Greek Tragedy?
BINGO!!!!!!!!!!!! There's even spiritual elements to this film. it has it all!!
Underappreciated? Huge hit. Most folks love it. Heh.
This is one of those movies that everybody expected to be really mid-tier but blew everybody that saw it away with how much better it was than we thought it would be. So happy to be reminded of how good it is from a fresh perspective! Glad you watched this 😁
Edit: holy shit look at all those likes. Just for a little old opinion of mine. Thanks everybody :)
The problem was they did a horrible job at marketing it when it came out.
Yeah, for me it was hyped up, and when I watched it, expectations were surpassed.
Yes. The movie did really poorly at the box office because it was poorly marketed. I remember seeing a preview for it, I believe before Star Trek Into Darkness, so I remembered that I wanted to see it. Otherwise, I'd have given it a pass.
Yeah, I had low expectations for this film, the same as I did with The Fifth Element.
"Bruce Willis in a SciFi movie?!? It's gonna suck."
"Tom Cruise in a SciFi movie?!? It's gonna suck"
The only two times in my life that I'm ecstatically happy about being horribly wrong...
The manga it was based off was even more bonkers, but it was really good
This was the last movie my wife and I watched together before she died. Though I thoroughly enjoyed it, she was as tremendously enthusiastic about the movie as you are. I’ve watched it every year on the date (or as close as possible) that we originally saw it and I get to remember Alison gripping my hand and getting excited during the tense and thrilling moments, which was basically the whole movie to be honest. I’m glad you enjoyed it so much and were so invested in the movie. It brought back some great memories.
- edit
I thank all of you and appreciate your well wishes and condolences, however, the main gist of my comment was to express joy. It was a happy memory and I wanted to thank Natalie for evoking it.
thank you so much for sharing that 💜
This comment hit me right in the feels, Barry. I'm sorry for your loss.
Bless you Barry
Made a grown man cry. Much love bro
Funny how I've seen comments like this on other major reactors' videos in the last couple of days. Notice how there are literally no specifics here - it's all generalisations. Could it be true? Yes. But I doubt it.
10:27 Tom was actually a big reason the exo-suits look so good. He pushed for them to be fully practical and functional, and while they aren't actual combat suits, the actors had to learn how to move around in them constantly on set.
Tom's a real legend, maybe there's something to this scientology thing...............nah XD, still a legend
@@stonedmountainunicorn9532 lol😂 yeahhh not something I’d recommend but hey... guess it works for him😂
yep, as much as i hate Tom Cruise as a person, he's a skilled actor. he becomes such a likeable and believable person on screen.
@@NahYoureTheTube I don't hate him as a person either. Poor guy is just mentally ill and badly brainwashed.
@@dabearsfan9 I watched a video about him and his ex-wife, and how she almost pulled him away from Scientology, and they started getting loser as a couple. The cult sent people to try to break up their marriage. In the end, they successfully kept him. I like his movies, but damnit if my feelings about him aren't complex.
Just wanna shout out for Bill Paxton here, who played Master Sgt. Farell in the film. Always a star, a character actor, a sometime leading man, and a MVP of film in general. May he rest in peace (1955-2017).
From Weird Science on, he was always a welcome presence on the screen for me.
Same here, one of my favorite actors
One of the all time greats! RIP
I remember getting a notification on the day he died and how much his death impacted me personally. I remember sitting down and rewatching *Aliens*, *Edge of Tomorrow/LIve. Die. Repeat*, and *Twister* in tribute on that day. Though I obviously didn't know him except through his acting, he is one of those actors I always get a kick out of seeing in a movie no matter the size of his part.
And a director! FRAILTY is a disturbing film but it was executed brilliantly. The performances are excellent.
Many actors-turned-directors use their acting experience to really get the best out of those they direct. Paxton was one of them.
THE GREATEST GAME EVER PLAYED was also a well-crafted film.
Gone too soon, Bill. Miss your work!
I love this movie, but my favorite scene by far is Cage trying to roll under the passing truck and misjudging the distance. I laugh every time I hear that squeal and crunch and see Farrell's confused expression.
This is definitely, for me, one of the funnier parts. You just end up imagining how many times he had to die before he got that timing just right.
No joke. And every time, Farrell is looking at his body like, "What the heck was he trying to do?" 🤣
Same. I remember watching it first time in theater, most of the audience burst out laughing uncontrollably.
I was ROLLING when that happened.
The tears in his eyes when he sees her alive at the end, and she's her lovable hardass self brings a smile to my face every time.
This is one of those rare movies that came out of nowhere and became one of the best of its genre, completely blew my expectations away
My favorite shot in the movie is when it cuts from Rita's lifeless face to her alive again during training the next day, and she catches Cage staring at her. The way it's edited just really captures the surreal sadness of seeing her die over and over.
Also really like all the little nods to the source material. The whole movie's such an unexpected treat.
Yeah and you could tell she understood that look
I hadn't rewatched this until Natalie's Patreon commentary and I forgot that it's just perfect.
can give a timestamp?
...source material?
@@cybergeek11235 The Japanese light novel "All You Need is Kill". I read it when I first heard about the movie. It's fairly good.
I love how they get you in the end, when the stakes change. It goes from "Nothing matters, just do it again" to "This is it, all or nothing."
The editing is what really makes this movie. Instead of just starting over at the beginning every time, it shows snippets of how Cage gets to where he is - like showing his failed attempt to save Kimmel, then getting hit by that truck, and then succeeding - it really works great for the pacing, and makes the film not boring to watch, but entertaining.
I remember when this first came out, the marketing was absolutely terrible, and if I'm not mistaken they even changed the name from "Live Die Repeat" to "Edge of Tommorow" in the middle of the release window... it absolutely blew me away at how well done it was and is one of my favorite movies of all time now. Fantastic writing and visual storytelling. Glad you finally watched it!
It’s the other way around. It was titled “Edge of Tomorrow” and then they changed it to a more literal title “Live. Die. Repeat.” Super lame. I liked the original title.
@@WoWGirl6 is it not still edge of tommorow though?
Live. Die. Repeat. was the tagline for the marketing campaign. It was constantly repeated in the films's trailers. It also took the majority of the space on the posters with the actual "Edge of Tomorrow" title really small. This made many people mistook the title for Live. Die. Repeat. So much so that on home video, the covers show the title as Live. Die. Repeat./ Edge of Tomorrow to make sure that people recognze the film. However, the official name always was Edge of Tomorrow.
@@WoWGirl6you’re wrong lmao. It’s called edge of tomorrow now. It was originally live die repeat
Both wrong: the original title was "All you need is kill" after the Japanese manga it's based on.
This movie is so good. Apparently there's been theories of how long he was stuck on the loop. In the book that is based on (ALL YOU NEED IS KILL) the character had 160 iterations. But in the film, people theorized that he's been in the loop for 100 days, 1000 days, or maybe 100 years.
Kill not killed
I've thought about this a lot, and once even tried to work out the math but I got lost in the "assumed" repeats. I wouldn't be surprised if it was a couple of years, he had to figure out the full pattern of every area of the base multiple times, not to mention the amount of time he spent trying to figure out a way off the damn beach.
@@DC3328 there, I fixed it.
@@riolkin yeah it's difficult to really pin point how long he's been in it.
Same with Groundhog Day. How long did it take Phil to learn the piano, and become a doctor on top of memorizing everything in the town in that town on that day? And that was after his earlier dark phases and naughty phases.
Fun fact, Emily Blunt's sword is just a modified helicopter propeller blade. She just picked one up in Verdun and went to town.
Also she uses a sword because she got tired of running out of ammo
Commando pro vs. Scavenger
She's like Lily, the unstable super mutant granny in Fallout: New Vegas.
@@Scott_ForsellLMFAOOO
What really interested me about this film is that it combines the novel it was based on (the Japanese book All You Need Is Kill) with the World War II operation it also served to commemorate (the D-Day landings). It was even released on the 70th anniversary of those landings.
Also, 'Operation Downfall' was the name of the planned WW2 invasion of Japan. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Downfall
There's also the battle of Verdun which is a reference to WW1.
It's wild how slept on this movie is. One of my all time faves, and went in with zero expectations.
What I really enjoyed about this movie was the fact that they only focused on repeating certain things enough to keep the story moving, like the scientist when he finds the dam. And the way Cage knows enough about the place where they find the helicopter.
Sup V?
Yes the editing in the movie was very well thought out, it kept it engaging
I genuinely love how you came into this movie with very little info about the premise. Seeing your realization that its a time loop movie was amazing.
Sarcasm I suspect.
Because she pre watches the movie! Duh!
@@stevesparks2001 exactly. It's so obvious.
I watched this movie out of curiosity, boredom, and a "this could be interesting" mentality. I was most pleasantly surprised and blown away, recommend it to anyone with a pulse. Even heard there's a sequel in the possible works... must. temper. anticipation!
Same when it comes to this movie. However, I don't see how a sequel is even possible or would be anywhere near as interesting/awesome as this was. I'd be hard pressed to even attempt a watch of such a thing. 🙂
21:18 I love how this training montage plays out. They try to memorize every move to survive - which obviously doesn't work - and eventually just have to become good enough to survive on instinct alone.
A lot is talked about the premise and action of the movie, which is great, but Tom Cruise's acting is just great in this as well. Very emotional at times, funny at others. :)
Definitely one of my favorite performances from Tom Cruise. He's usually a badass from start to finish in his action movies with very little change character, but this movie his character has a very big arc and Cruise pulls it off very well.
Tom Cruise’s acting in a lot of things is very good, yeah he has his traits but so does Meryl Streep but otherwise his acting is good and he’s committed.
@@DP-nl4uq Wasn't trying to say his acting in other movies is bad. He just gets the chance to show a bigger range in this movie than in a lot of his other movies.
Tom Cruise doesn't get enough credit for his comedic chops. I've found that in many of his more recent movies - including the "action" ones - he throws in a lot of self-deprecating mannerisms and comedic moments at his own expense. He's very good at it, and it's made the Ethan Hunt character from Mission Impossible WAY more accessible when compared to the first two movies. It vaguely reminds me of the way Harrison Ford used to play Indiana Jones - like he's always in over his head.
Cruise gets a lot of crap for the whole Scientology thing (rightly, I think) but I really love the quality he brings to action movies. He allows his characters to be vulnerable and to look scared, which is far more interesting and engaging than characters in other action movies who barely seem phased by the situations they find themselves in or throw out a quip in response to immense carnage and violence
I've always been partial to the theory that Cage needed to be there when the Omega died to steal it's power. if it had been bombed like the general would've done, it probably would've just reset and moved on like normal. Cage taking the power from the Omega is not only redemption for him, but also humanity.
This is a movie based on a Japanese novel, and as a fellow Japanese, I am proud that you enjoyed it.
Kudos to the director for re-editing the film into a very interesting movie, even though the content is slightly different from the original.
The fact that people can enjoy the concept of Japanese games, where even if you die, you can try the same stage again, I think it's proof that Japanese games are loved all over the world.
Also, I am very grateful to Tom and Emily for starring in this film.
Saw this at the theater. Went in not expecting much. That might be part of why I really liked it. Blew my expectations out of the water.
The ending is so perfect when you remember that up until that point he had to answer the question "What do you want?" with something relating to saving the world or needing her help, but now the answer to the question eludes him and he then realises that he's finally free.
I like how when the shot cuts, it goes straight into the chorus of Love Me Again. She asks what he wants, and immediately you hear the lyrics:
"I need to know now
Know now
Can you love me again?"
It doesn't promise anything about their future, but it hints at what he's hoping for.
It's also interesting she says "What do you want?" when she can tell he's a Major. He outranks her. When he's just a private, she says "Who said you could talk to me?"
my favorite part was when tom cruise said “it’s edging time” and proceedes to kill all the aliens with his stare
I was disappointed with that part tbh, because I was hoping for a different kind of edging...
I did love it when he edged all over the aliens...
My favorite part was when these jokes were mildly amusing. Too bad that's not the case anymore
@@chairmanofthebored6860 username checks out
How can someone not fall in love with her character? She's strong, smart, beautiful, bad-ass, and has a sassy attitude. She's like the perfect woman, lol. I think it's because of how strong she is through the movie that when she's dying and she holds out her hand to hold Cage's hand as she dies it was such a touching and sad scene. It was like the first time you get to see her vulnerable. But I really love that ending, how he goes onto the base as an officer and everyone is standing in attention and saluting him, treating him with respect, but when he approaches her, officer or not, she still gives him the same attitude he knows from her, and that laugh at the end he gives was just the perfect response. That bit of attitude probably melted his heart, lol.
I honestly wasn't expecting much from this when I went to the theater to see it, but it was packed and it was WAAAY better than I expected. I only went because I actually like Tom in most movies and knew it was based on a light novel and I love the theater environment. It was a good night. 🐾🐾🍻
Natalie's enthusiasm and positivity in this video lifted my spirits 😊
Came out of nowhere for me. I randomly put it on knowing nothing about it. Not even that it was based on a manga. Blown away by it, got a couple of friends to watch it after that.
Same
Not based on a manga. Originally a 2004 novel. Turned into both a movie and a manga which were released the same year.
this is one of my favorites movies ever and it's SO underappreciated makes me insane! so happy to have this reaction
The reason Kage reset further is that the Alphas can reset a single day, whereas the Omega can reset two. Think of it as the Omega having a longer backup to change the events that lead to its death. Or having different levels of save states. Because Kage got the Omegas blood, he hijacked the time power from it, making it die for real. If he didn’t; if they just bombed it or something, the Omega would have reset two full days (back to when Kage was in the helicopter) and anticipated the squad attack. Glad you enjoyed the movie!
This makes me think of playing a really hard video game where you basically have to just learn all the patterns perfectly to progress, but you have only one save point that's in a really annoying spot.
"Let me solo her" in a nutshell.
Like right before an unskippable cut scene. I'm looking at you, Final Fantasy games!
Ah yes, for me it was quicksaving on Doom Ultra Violence on the extra levels back in the day! 20 Cacodemons, no health and the perfect run required!
YES! That's EXACTLY what it's like! When I saw the movie, I kept thinking "This reminds me of something, but BESIDES Groundhog Day! WTF IS it!?"
Yep. As I always like to say, this is my favorite video-game movie.
This is one of those movies that exceeded my expectations. I enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would
Natalie and Edge of Tomorrow sounded good. I was not prepared for how perfect a combo it was.
I remember watching it in the theaters in 2014, and I had to tell everyone about it. Edge of Tomorrow still ranks among the best movies I have watched.
Saw this at a dollar theater bc it wasn’t in mainstream theaters long bc it bombed but I heard so much about how good it was. It was easily my favorite summer film of 2014. Could not recommend it enough.
-love when reactors are really enjoying what they’re watching it comes through so strong
Do you mean are* enjoying what they're watching?😅
@@noahb336 yes. But also if they hate it that too. Lol I will edit it
@@DP-nl4uq haha no worries😋
@@noahb336 stupid typo autocorrect
Exactly what happened to me. One of the last dollar theater movies I watched before they got bought out and stopped existing. That was the beauty of the dollar theater. You went and saw movies that you didn't expect to be great, so when one was, it was an amazing time.
So glad you watched this unaware of the Groundhog Day "twist", I was totally blown away too lol. Everybody else apparently knew from the trailers or something, but since I initially had no interest in seeing this, I had no idea.
I knew from the manga.
It's a book adapted to a manga and the movie is also adapted from the book I think.
I don't know the original content but I think the movie is 99% great I just don't like the happy ending, in the manga it's a really bitter ending.
And I think that having the protagonist "pay" something in exchange for mankind salvation is so much impactful.
This is one of those rare movies I go back and re-watch now and then, It's just so well done. Great reaction Nat!
If you liked the movie, it's actually based on a book called All You Need Is Kill by Hiroshi Sakurazaka. It's a pretty fast read at ~200 pages and you could probably finish it in a sitting. The Edge of Tomorrow takes a bunch of liberties to adapt it for western cinema, so reading the book is still pretty fresh and rewarding despite still having the same core story. I've reread it a few times and highly recommend it.
Yeh, it is more violent and gory, and ending is sad.
This is one of my favorite movies and it's criminal how underrated it is. This deserved a lot more love at the box office than it got.
This movie represents the best of what action movies should do. It's a shit load of fun, not really a heavy thinker, but still has a lot of heart. Groundhog Day is one of my favorite Bill Murray movies, both because its hilarious and because of Bill's growth over the film. It's serves an even more fun premise in an action film like this, paying off some dark comedy through various deaths.
The director is Doug Liman who directed the first The Bourne Identity movie. I don't think Natalie watched those yet, so that should definitely be added to the watchlist. He also directed Mr and Mrs Smith, and American Made (also with Cruise). His first movie was Swingers which would be cool to see a reaction to as well.
Edge of Tomorrow is one of the most underrated scifi action flicks ever. It deserved more than what it got at the box office and I'm sure it's going to become a cult classic in the years to come.
Such a great movie. Totally underrated. One of my all-time favorite sci-if films.
This and Oblivion were two that were much better than I expected. I think I only got around to watching this one a few months ago because I heard others talking about it. And Oblivion popped on my radar because the song for it was showing up on my relaxing work playlist.
Oh yeah Oblivion is great 👍🏼
Gotta add my vote for Oblivion as well. Tom Cruise is really good at picking SF movies to be in. Other than being another under rated movie starring Tom Cruise, it's completely different but just as good in a different way.
Oblivion is one of my favorite movies!
I think that " The Last Samurai" is one of the films from Tom Cruise that is listed in the top 3 favorites for me that are stand alone singles. Someone with PTSD and a drunk suffering from DT's. Learning the ways of your enemies and coming to love the culture and the mystery widow. (spoilers). Tom really stretched his acting chops. Musical score and cinematography are 10/10 and have won many awards.. Top of the line acting by all. Ken Watanabe, Koyuki ( first film? stage actress)
The music for Oblivion is as good on its own as the movie itself is. Incredible score and song.
I love that you loved this! One of my favorite Emily Blunt films. She played Rita perfectly. Very few actresses could have pulled it off as convincingly. Girl on a Train is one of her best performances. Definitely recommend!
I thought Emily Blunt was beautiful in Young Victoria, but it wasn't until this movie that I had a huge crush on her. She absolutely kills it.
This movie was a rare win for Hollywood in adapting a great source material in the right way. It was fresh, exciting, funny, and a proper crowd-pleasing action flick.
Nat, your reaction is exactly what I needed today. This and The Last Samurai are my favourite TC movies.

Minority Report too
Hands down the best sci-fi movie i have ever seen. One of the few rare ones where the plot and the story are paramount and the most important and the CGI are only a background to that. Usually its the other way around - flashy CGI scenes with more plotholes than swiss cheese.
It was one of the few movies that made me sit on the tip of my chair and bite my fingernails as the stakes got higher and higher at the end.
Agree with everything, except I never understand why people blame CGI for bad writing and direction.
The CGI artists always do an amazing Job with what they are asked to do. The CGI in this film is great. It doesn't take a background, it works amazingly well WITH the story. Not to mention one of the best creature design & seamless VFX work. Just like in many mainstream blockbusters.
The biggest difference is that the writing and direction are actually done well here. We need to immediately stop blaming "flashy CGI" as part of the issue for bad writing and blame bad writing and direction on it's own.
CGI don't even need to be mentioned along with it. We don't mention lighting or set design or make up along with it right? CGI is just another element like that.
@@southindianboi9050 what i meant is that most of scifi is made specifically FOR amazong CGI and except that it usually lacks a compelling story. And even if it doesn't, CGI is usually the primary selling point. Not the case here :) story is primary and CGI is secondary, thank god
@@Keria666WHY I get what you're saying. Many use CGI as a crutch to hide/distract the audience from seeing their bad writing.
I love Groundhog Day and to see such a cool take on its concept was amazing. Great reaction - as always!
Most Tom Cruise action movies are awesome. The Mission Impossible franchise is my second favorite in all of movie franchises. I also really like Knight and Day.
THANK YOU! I’ve been telling people for years how good this movie was… I’m so glad you enjoyed as much as you did! Loved Tom’s characters arc as well and even though it was repeating it never got tiresome ….they kept it fresh throughout!
Yet another Tom Cruise movie that I thoroughly enjoy. Tell ya what, the man's belief structure is... not something I agree with, but damn, I can't think of a movie he has done (where he is the main or one of the main actors) that I didn't enjoy or enjoy greatly. And I am even counting that train wreck Mummy movie :D
Totally agree
The only Cruise movie that I wasn't impressed with was Valkyrie. Not a bad movie, by any means, just not my cuppa, you know?
Okay, I forgot about Eyes Wide Shut, which in my opinion was really bad.
He was right calling out anti depression drugs and not working and depression having nothing to do with a chemical imbalance 20 years ago and now this is accepted mainstream science due to peer reviewed data.
Why do people keep bringing up his beliefs every time when he's in talk of being an actor?
It's pretty nice to watch something with someone who has so much life in them. Your reactions are fun thanks for sharing
Loved Groundhog Day and I loved this. A definite classic!
5:24 natalie's acting here is incredible 🤣🤣
Was that acting, or did Tyler film her in the morning when she was waking up?
lol
@@NatalieGoldReacts Today is the two year anniversary of the final episode of Agents of SHIELD. I think you ought to get into it, even if it's just a bit at a time. It is a show that absolutely got better with age. Many people couldn't handle the long haul but it was so worth it. Have fun with it. Go in blind and spoiler free before someone ruins it.
I love seeing people react to this movie. One of the best action movies ever.
I love this movie, and your reactions are so satisfying because you get invested in what you're watching. Had lots of fun watching your video; thanks! :)
I'm so glad you enjoyed this. It is one of my all time favorite movies. Just an awesome story.
What a pleasant surprise, its certainly an underrated movie!
I've grown to appreciate this version in the years since it came out. The story it was adapted from had a much darker ending.
This movie was based on a Japanese novel named "All You Need Is Kill." The author was literally inspired by old-school video games where you had to memorize your timing on each stage in order to beat the game. Each time you ran that game, you got better and better until you beat it.
yesssss so glad you loved it
Honestly one of the best sci-fi action movies ever made, so glad you liked it!
Bill Paxton was nothing short of amazing in this movie. Endlessly entertaining even repeating the same day over and over.
One of my all time favorite movies. Glad that you enjoyed it.
What a great reaction, I love how excited you where during this movie.
Love this movie! So glad you chose this one!
One of your best reactions Natalie. I loved that one.
Glad you reacted to this, one of my favorite Sci-fi movies honestly
What's cool about this movie is that even if you predict his arc, predict where things are going, which you certainly did, this movie still surprises you, is still unique and is still a badass, beast of a movie. Also, great love story with a badass and beautiful Emily Blunt. Also, a great rag-tag crew with Mr. Bill Paxton (wish he would have been in the final leg)
This is one of my most watched movies of all time. I can’t stand Tom Cruise as a person but he is a really great actor. The editing and the pacing of this movie are perfect.
History note: "Operation Downfall" was the name of the operation to invade mainland Japan in WW2 (but the atomic bombs convinced Japan to surrender instead)
So parallels: Operation Downfall was the operation that didn't happen, both in this movie, and in WW2
And "Downfall" is also the title of the movie dramatization of the last days in the Führer's bunker.
("Der Untergang", it's the one with the often intentionally mistransated meme scene)
This is actually based on a Japanese novel called "All you Need is Kill" by Hiroshi Sakurazaka (later turned into a comic). I was really nervous when I heard about the film and that it was going to be Tom Cruise in the lead role but I was pleasantly surprised! The book isn't very long but I highly recommend it if you enjoyed the film.
This is one of those so good type of movies that you kinda wish there would be a sequel; but then it would automatically be cursed with being able to do as well as the first and not trying to repeat common themes.
There is one movie I personally haven't seen too many reactions to, but it's definitely worth seeing at least once. "The Forbidden Kingdom"
Reminds me of the "Star Trek: The Next Generation" episode "Cause and Effect" from 1992!
Such an awesome movie, watched it so many times at release because i just loved every bit of it. Happy i got to enjoy it one more time with you. Keep it up!
One of the best action movies of the past 20 years. So glad Nat got so much enjoyment. It ends SO WELL!!
I watched this on a flight from the US to Germany back in 2014, and damn near died trying not to wake the whole plane up with historical laughter. Not sure what the folks around me thought of my strangled giggling...
This was such a pleasant surprise! One of my favorite underrated movies ❤️
I literally jumped off my couch when I saw this in my feed!! So excited to see your reaction to my favorite Tom Cruise film!!!
15:10 "This is awesome!" That's what I said!!
Yes!! New Natalie!!
This movie has to be one of the freshest cinema experiences i've ever had, and i could never figure out why more people didn't like it at the time or went to see it...
Watching Tom Cruise doing action is a pure spectacle and thrill ride, he commits 200%. You should treat yourself more often! The M:I movies are the gold standard for action nowadays, especially the latest ones.
This movie is criminally underrated.
Happy you enjoyed it!
I still can't believe there hasn't been a sequel. Maybe since TGM exists tom will finally do one.
What would the sequel even be. What would the plot be? I dont think the book or the manga had a sequel either right?
My point is he refused to do Maverick until the story was right, even though there wasn't a need for a sequel. The setup for a sequel here could be similar 🤷🏼♂️
Both Tom & Emily are waiting until both the story & the time are right.
Goodish news for you then. There's a script in the works and the director of this one is signed on for it. No telling if or when it will actually happen but progress is being made.
This movie needs no sequel. It’s impossible to top it in a satisying way
I love this movie! Surprisingly funny, full of action, extremely interesting, wonderful science fiction and a touching story. Thank you Natalie for your reactions. Hugs to the husband.
Wow, you made me love a movie I already love, even more. Really enjoyed your video!
Very underrated movie. I’ve seen it more than a few times, and I still enjoy it every time! Great reaction too. Loved your “battle is the great redeemer” comment at the end. I’d never thought of it that way.
Thanks Nat! Big thumbs up! One of my favorite movies from the last 10 years. Also one of Bill Paxton's (Sergeant Farrell) last movies. Always kind of sad to see him here. If you want to try more Emily Blunt in a sci-fi setting, I suggest 'The Adjustment Bureau' with Matt Damon. They are really good together, very sweet. I would guess you'll cry a little in that one.
Hi Nat 🙋
Im from Brasil, not only your reacts are funny, i can re-watch the movie that i like and see the perspective of someone of another culture, and i practice my understanding of English from someone who speaks the language naturaly 🇧🇷🙂
I was pleasantly surprised by this one too. Good movie! Lovely reaction.
A year later and I finally watched this movie last night.
I just HAD to come here and see how you did because I was an entire MESS!!
I was screaming, looking away due to the scare jumps, laughing, confused… I think I even stopped breathing for a bit.
LOVED THIS MOVIE!
"This has been the best most satisfying character growth ever" - Natalie is finally ready for anime :)
Love this movie, loved this reaction too :)
More tom cruise would be great (Collateral? Interview with the Vampire?)
Great stuff Nat :)
I think the Mission Impossible films are an absolute must
Late to the party, but man, this movie is probably the best one of TC, at least for me. Usually we see TC as a badass already in the beginning, but with this character arc and also his connection with Rita, it was so satisfying. I was so glad I did not know anything about this movie, didn't see any trailers and the novel itself. The thing I regret is not watching it in theatres because I was watching Godzilla (2014) instead (which I don't regret). I have already watched this movie a couple of times, glad to know you enjoyed it too XD
