  • How do you show support in your friendships? How many times did you fist pump watching RRR?
    Licensed therapist Jonathan Decker and filmmaker Alan Seawright are reacting to RRR - it’s bromance therapy! The internet’s best bromance reacts to cinema’s best bromance. While the movie is an adrenaline-filled spectacle, the relationships have a lot of substance. Jonathan talks about support, vulnerability, and even conflict in friendships and how RRR portrays healthy male friendships. Did you see the bro-montage? Alan talks about how the movie shouldn’t work but why it absolutely does. It’s a genre-bending masterpiece. And Raju and Bhemm’s bromance brings up memories from their bromance…

    One thing I've noticed with gen Z is a lot of straight guys are super comfortable with being affectionate with their straight guy friends, and no one is "shocked" by it. I'm a millennial and there were sprinklings of straight male affection but there was always a "joke/humor" aspect to it. With Gen Z, there's no laughing/joking, they'll just flat out hug and say "love you bro", and it's normalized and it's AWESOME.

      100% agree. It makes me sad because I am a male millennial and I feel somewhat out of place around so many male people (probably why I always cherished the company of female friends more). Most of my male peers reach out for the handshake first and when I go in for the hug they often feel reserved and taken aback a bit or at least surprised; some got more relaxed with me over time, tho which feels like a nice thing to achieve with a friend.

      this I would chalk up to as an issue of marketing, cultural distance(Labrinth of Pan flashbacks), and unfamiliar history. lot of Asian history gets glossed over in the west due to lack of expected interaction, which is sad.
      at least until you remember the fundamental problems with Asian cultures that they would force you to comply with or be considered a "poor customer." The west has it's problems, but at least there is a history of confronting social issues. In Asia it's a story of generational trauma to suppress for social cohesion.

    As someone who saw this movie in a packed theater, I can confirm that the theater was going insane periodically throughout this film. The theatrical version is also in the actors' spoken language as opposed to the Netflix version, so there are no awkward mouth movement to audio moments. It is SO WORTH IT if you can see it in a theater. There's also an intermission, which was greatly appreciated in a 3hr film that never slows down.

      I heavily endorse John and Alan to review the legendary film DDLJ, even if it is just to gush as SRK's acting!
      In all seriousness though, DDLJ is a really fascinating take on the romcom genre, as its a movie not only about a blossoming romance but also of family values. Something that made it quite unique at the time was how in an age where most Bollywood romances ended with eloping (aka running away from the strict parents that naysay against the romance), DDLJ was one of the first to actually push for family more than just a romance...the entire second half of the movie is SRK's character infiltrating the wedding of his love interest with the sole purpose of gaining her strict father's respect before officially asking her love interest to marry him.

    As a South indian- I'd like to say that the combination of strong masculinity with healthy emotional states, kindness and sensitivity towards the people around them, and the respect towards the women- is prevalent in all our Indian heroes - whether they be freedom fighters, folktale heroes or religious ones. For example- Rama referenced here in the second half of RRR, is said to have the same temperament - a healthy combination of masculinity and sensitivity. It's interesting to see how our ancestors have prioritised these personality traits.

    my brother got married last year
    and probably one of my favorite memories happened at the reception
    me, my siblings, and cousins all watched rrr not long before the wedding and we absolutely loved it
    so of course we decided we were going to try to learn the naatu naatu dance and do it at the reception
    we didn't put much planning into it, most only knew the basic moves, but it could not have gone more perfectly
    just like the movie, my cousins were dropping off one by one (cuz that dance is exhausting), and it ended up just being me and my brother left. i was a dancer for a really long time, so i was absolutely in my element, but i could tell my brother was getting exhausted.
    i decided to drop off to let him have his moment (it was his wedding after all)
    the high five we did once the song was over might've been the greatest high five of all time

But especially in the US, there's such this intense homophobe backlash, men aren't allowed to be friends with each other.

    I strongly related to the bromance in RRR.
    In 2017, I went through a really bad breakup, and one of my now best friends went through a similar situation. We both admitted we felt sad and weak, and didn't want to be in that dark place anymore. We started meeting on our university campus center at 6AM, running laps around campus, and having breakfast together. We'd go to the gym some time mid day between classes, study together, and of course, help each other get back out there. One of our friends described us as "the most intense bromance she's ever seen", and that's something I'm pretty proud of.
    I'd say that to this day, he is the most important friend I have ever made.

    I think the melodrama works because it COMMITS. It doesn't go a little bit and then fizzle out.

      I think that's the key here, it's being committed to taking the lunacy and melodrama and the feels super seriously without a hint of irony to it. It's exactly why Lord of the Rings works because it so overdramatic, but it works as great fantasy storytelling because of how it commits to it and takes itself seriously...compared to the Hobbit which had so many tonal whiplash problems that it was harder for people to enjoy the movies like they did with LOTR.

    the guy that represents fire is so, so hot, and I do think its great that people are starting to normalise affection between straight guys. As a gay man, I've often defended straight friends that had that showed affection to other straight guys or even me, I once told a guy that "Just because you're to scared to show how you feel don't crap on others that are more comfortable with their feelings." and he was like "but it's so gay" "trust me I'm gay, I know gay when I see it and this isn't, would you like me to show you what is gay?" it was the first time I felt good about making someone run away lol.😅

    I think the lack of subtlety works because everyone commits to it with their whole chest. The actors never seem uncomfortable in their skin as they say cheesy things, they never pull back on acting out every emotion with everything they've got. And this transcends the actors - no one halfassed this movie. The cinematography is clearly highly skilled, the editing had thought put into each second onscreen, even the costume design went all out. For the Naatu dance scene, the costume department had to create two different pairs of suspenders so they could be stretchy enough for the little suspender dance, but firm enough to handle the motion in the rest of the scene. All those dresses were lovingly designed and sewn in high quality materials to be then danced around in in a dust pit.
    Subtlety is neat. It's like desaturated colors. It's easy to make things look good with subtlety.
    But there is an art to doing something with so much deep sincerety, so much conviction and confidence AND skill, that subtlety is not needed to gloss over anything anymore. It's replaced with unbridled joy and beauty that comes from a piece of media basically going "Look at me! I'm giving it my all!"

      It's also because of cultural context and how in Indian culture the aspects of religious and spiritual symbolism and iconography in conjunction with mythology is a commonplace. The movie Bahubaali which was done by the same director is a historical epic and has the same aspects of non-subtlety. It's the reason why most Bollywood and Tollywood films have this aspect of non-subtlety.

      @@stanleycurtis2381 I mean that explains why the movies are made like this, but not why it works on an audience that completely lacks the cultural concept, you know? Every movie has a certain home advantage in the culture it was made for, but RRR transcended the need for that and appeals to an audience that is usually raised on "subtlety is better" and lampshade hanging.
      And this success in a different culture, where the audience completely lacks the cultural priming to accept the lack of subtlety as a common element in their media, is what I'm trying to explain here.

  • @FeaturingRob
    @FeaturingRob 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +225

    A couple of things that I think really helped with the film:
    - Ram Charan (Rama Raju) and NT Rama Rao, Jr. (Bheem) are friends in real life but have never worked together prior to this film. They are both leading man heroes in Indian cinema and usually, there is only one hero per film. Rajamouli approached both of them with the idea, and they liked the idea. Incidentally, the name RRR came from the initial press release that the three men would be working together, and since the project didn't have an official name it was dubbed RRR as all three men had "R" in their names...and every country where it released finds a three-word phrase of R sounding words for the title (in English, Rise, Roar, Revolt).
    - Rajamouli is kind of the James Cameron/Steven Spielberg of India...every film he has made seems to build his toolbox and his imagination further. His prior film 'Bahabuli' Part One and Part Two really show this. You guys should see these...even if you don't do a Cinema Therapy video about them.
    There is a part of the storytelling that I do want to comment on, as most people don't. The two characters are very much based on historical characters, but Rajamouli imbues both men with rather religious/spiritual symbolism.
    - Rama Raju, rather unsubtly, is given the costume of Ram or Rama from the epic story, The Ramayana, at the end during the final battle. Rama was an avatar of Vishnu, King of the Gods, who led a war against Ravana, king of Lanka. He also had a wife named Sita.
    - Bheem is a little less obvious...for him, you go to The Mahabharata. The main thrust of this epic (which is twice as long as the Bible), is a war between the five Pandava brothers and the Kavaura brothers (100 in all) over who has the right to rule Bharat (India or the world). The second oldest Pandava brother is Bheema. Bheema is the strongest of the brothers, and they really paint Bheem as being, with the tiger capture, extremely strong.

      Bahubali is pure melodrama, from start to finish. It also has some amazingly powerful female characters (I would not want to be on the wrong side of Sivagami!) and some deep universal themes, like love, ego, hubris, betrayal, vengeance and loyalty. And that cliffhanger at the end of the first movie!! Holy smoke, I was on my feet screaming "What?! WHAT?!" at my TV!

I do think that Rajamouli is such a visual director that he has a meaning for it.

      I'm just starting to realize this about myself too! I had a few crushes on friends growing up, but every time I pictured myself being in a romantic relationship with them, I always immediately recoiled at the very thought. So for the longest time, I couldn't figure out why I developed feelings for said friends in the first place. And I think now, it's because I wouldn't mind close, intimate, familial bond with friends, exclusively without the romance/sexual associations. It's tough to seek this though, because the last thing I want is to give the wrong impression, and especially since most of my friends are very romance-driven, or love romance more than I do, so it's hard to connect with them sometimes.

      Rule 4: Don't take Song lyrics subtitles literally, they translated lyrics as it is which messed with metaphorical nature of the songs and seems cheesy with subtitles.

    I've seen about 50 or so reviews of RRR by westerners, and have to say that it was universally true that they were all very much from Western cultural values and attitude (tho it didn't stop them from thoroughly enjoying the movie). They loved the "bro-mance" aspect of this, but still felt uncomfortable at the relationship being that out there but not gay. The US in particular has moved to a point where straight men touching each other or expressing fondness is seen as weird. Also, on the superhero aspects: Indian movies are an extension of story-telling in Indian society which goes back several thousand years. It's meant to be more of a fable, a moral example, rather than superhero. Ordinary people who do extraordinary things when required. Lord Ram, the central figure in the mythological Hindu text Ramayan, is supposed to be the example of a perfect man and perfect king.
    Being realistic is something that's beside the point. It's also not really true of any Western movie, either, but I guess Indian movies are held to different standards. There are a lot of "Indian physics" comments and to me it sounds like the same people who objected to poetry that didn't rhyme and paintings that were impressionist or surreal for not being realistic. Actual realistic movies would be very boring, painful and pointless (the meet cute wouldn't happen, the marriage would end in divorce, blah blah). Cinema is meant to be story-telling, a morality fable, and joyous entertainment. At least Indian cinema strives to meet that goal (failing spectacularly quite often). I can't speak for Western cinema.

Honestly, most western cultures have such an insular, self-aggrandizing image of their world being superior to others in the world: a view that I vehemently deny and find abjectly unacceptable. As someone who’s familiar with general history of India, I totally understood the mythological significance that this film encapsulates. Heck, it’s a fantasy of history that does extremely well, grounded with a historic time period! This is the perfect embodiment that masculinity and femininity has that most films in the West miss out of the water!
      In all honesty, I fell in love with this film by all means! Truly a testament of Indian cinema, and a perfect introduction to Tollywood/Bollywood films as a whole!

The real people it was based on were around 400 years apart I think but the director and his dad who created RRR wanted to imagine if they got together and fucked shit up. The Indian head bobble is something you'll see NTR doing in the film, essentially just a different culture and way of showing you're listening.

    I'm aromantic and asexual, and I've never felt so accidentally seen by a film and video! In my experience being aroace, friendships are so incredibly important to my life, and because of society's focus on romance, growing up I often felt as if I wasn't allowed to love my friends or treasure my friendships as deeply as a romantic relationship. It's representation like this (even if not intended for the aroace community), that helped me learn more about myself and openly love my friends more deeply

      I'm asexual/panromantic - acepan?? - (and in a straight passing relationship) and I 100% agree that my relationships with my friends are really really important.
      There is so much emphasis on getting married & having kids that it can make use aces feel unseen or even broken, so I really love that this film shows such a strong friendship between two cishet men without doing the typical "but totally not gay" thing seen so much in other (mostly western) media.

    the reason why this style works so well is because it's rooted in the tradition of story-making for the region. i grew up watching these movies, and it never occurred to me that these were "melodramatic" as much as just a different form of storytelling. it also just reminds me in my work as an actor, i've had teachers say audiences accept the reality as you present it, so if that reality is grounded in you, it doesn't matter the type of output, they accept your story. as much as western audiences are not as used to this style of storytelling, they are fully taken into the world because it is rooted in the storytellers' realities.

      OMG. I'm a non Indian American as about as "white bread" as they come but because of streaming platforms, I've discovered Bollywood (or Indian films) in the last 6-7 years and what a revelation it's been.
      The fact that song and dance numbers are just part of almost every film just makes total sense.
      When I saw Main Hoon Na for the first time (my first real Bollywood film), I felt like I'd never seen a movie before. I was like, "Now THIS is a movie!"
      Apparently Hollywood, in its early days were big into music, song and dance numbers but that kind of faded off to just movie musicals or normal films.
      But Bollywood saw those films with songs and dances as the normal type of movie compared to one's without. And they created what became an entirely unique art form.
      I mean try to imagine ANY Indian film (the ones with item numbers which is the majority) without its item numbers and it's hard to imagine.
      In India, they have they're James Bond style movies too, but they're gonna have song and dance numbers! 👍

    I was introduced to this movie by my friend being like you gotta watch this ONE scene. Well about an hour later, we were basically speed running the movie through "the highlights" and watched about half of the entire thing. THEN we had the opportunity to see it on a big screen which was absolutely fantastic, and I left with immense energy and tear streaks on my face, and also shock that we'd be in the theater for three hours because it felt like 20 minutes had gone by it was so fast paced.
    I know you guys didn't get to touch on it a lot, but as fun and wild as this movie is (actually reminded me more of the Mad Max: Fury Road), there is a lot of strong emotion and terrible circumstances that the movie is set in. We actually recommended it to a Canadian friend and she couldn't do it because of the upsetting violence of it all. Not to give away spoilers, but there are really heartbreaking deaths in this movie too. It led to a discussion about how different countries and cultural backgrounds lead to whether sex/romantic scenes are better/worse in movies than over the top blood, gore, and violence and what movies parents allow children to see because of it. Perhaps an interesting topic for the Internet Dads to discuss?

    “This movie has a 97% on Rotten Tomatoes.”
    “That’s not high enough it should be 112.”
    I think this movie is the best movie ever made in the specific way that Die Hard is the best Christmas movie ever made.

    I just watched this film and it completely blew me away - one of the best movies I have seen recently! The story and characters and action and filmmaking and the MUSIC - it's awesome and I am so happy to see that you are showcasing it on your channel!

    I watched this movie as soon as I finished watching Cinema Therapy and loved it! It's definitely over the top, but so much fun to watch.

    I have been watching cinema therapy and enjoying your videos for ages and never expected to see this movie on here !
    - the dancing synchronicity was not done in vfx, they did just dance it in real time. They gave 17 takes for the director’s satisfaction. The director even did a ‘break down of a scene’ and explained how the song was shot
    - the actors don’t sing, we have ‘playback singers’ that sing and the actors only lip synch

    I love the song that plays for most of these scenes. It's called Dosti, you can read some the lyrics but it's all about the powerful deep friendship and I love it ❤

    This movie really was a masterpiece. The masculinity portrayed in this movie was literally perfect.

      Definitely the ideal version of masculinity that does not demean or belittle anyone! Definitely one of the greatest films in history, as it does reconcile with history!

    this movie's so good that as soon as it was over i immediately wanted to watch it again. I didn't because it's 3 hours long but i'm on a quest to make all of my friends watch it because they deserve to experience it

    I've said it before and I'll say it again, the subtitles on your videos are an absolute delight! The "InteRRRnet Dads" bit in this one was definitely appreciated 😂
    Also, I love your collective love of movies, it always makes me want to watch films again with a different perspective.

    never heard about it but I want to watch it immediately !!!!!!! I had a small crash with my best friend last week. We took 2 days to calm down then we had a conversation filled with cries, laught, respect and love. When I was young, when people hurt or disapointed me , I would just disapear and never talk to them again. I still had that desire but I fought it and I'm deeply grateful I did ❤

      Definitely watch it.
      Rule 1: Watch on big screen,
      Rule 2: Watch with friends/family not alone.
      Rule 3: Choose audio language wisely, either choose Telugu (Original) or Hindi (Better for English people because of English dialogue kept as it is unlike Telugu one), U can watch it in English dub if u hate subtitles, but it is not good dub, Only Hindi dub is good nothing else,
      Rule 4: Don't take Song lyrics subtitles literally, they translated lyrics as it is which messed with metaphorical nature of the songs and seems cheesy with subtitles.

    I really love the bombastic nature of Promare~ it's one of the most beautifully animated talk on bias and perspective shift and THE SOUNDRTACK omg. The passion of the characters for the people they love is amazing.

    This is the greatest video you guys have put out to date (and your content overall sits at an 8.3 out of 10). I love when y'all broaden my horizon with international films. Thank you for what y'all do.
