Oops, Gibson was a mistake, we knew it was Brooks and we meant Brooks, just a brain fart or vocal error or whatever you call it 😂
That happens to me, but now I can just say it was a senior moment, a small perk of getting older..lol
Just the concept of Mel Gibson directing Blazing Saddles ... even more N-words and Bart is the bad guy.
PLEASE REACT TO THE NEW JOKER MOVIE WITH Joaquin Phoenix
Alien 1979 movie by Ridley Scott a Classic
Then the movie Tropic Thunder YOU WILL CRACK UP! FACTS 😂😂😂
THANK YOU 🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️
6:30 If you lived in the 80s you'd have gotten the joke.
If you watched a haunted house, then you should include I'm gonna git you, sucka
Fun Val Kilmer Singing Fact 1: The songs that Val Kilmer sings in the film are actually performed by Kilmer himself and were featured on the film's soundtrack released in 1984 under Kilmer's character's name Nick Rivers. Fact 2: While portraying Jim Morrison in the 1991 film “The Doors”, Val Kilmer actually did all his own singing. Critics were full of praise for his very realistic portrayal and convincing singing.
That car was a Pinto. It had a bad reputation of exploding when hit from the back. 🤣🤣🤣
At the same time there was a reputation for Firestone tires exploding. There was a skit on some comedy show. Someone was killed in a Pinto with Firestone tires that exploded. The investigators marked it down as a suicide.
@@dongilleo9743 LOL!
Just the 1978 model, there was no protection between the bumper and the gas tank. Thankfully they changed it. But by that time the damage had been done, I owned a 1982.
"How did they come up with 'skeet surfing?'"
During the publicity tours for “Airplane!” the Zucker brothers and Jim Abrahams came up with a game to see which of the three could get the most outrageous “lie” put in print. The agreement was that if one of them started telling a lie to a reporter, the other two were obliged to back up his story 100%. One interviewer asked them about their leisure activities in Southern California, Jim came up with “Skeet surfing.” The reporter asked “how do you keep the guns dry?” and other incredulous questions, but they stuck to their story, and it made it to print.
I love the names of the French resistance, especially Deja vu, "Have we not met before, Monsieur?"
Latrine!
There was no post-credits scene, but did you notice that the credits were full of some...unusual entries? Also, the story Hillary tells about her and Nigel on the island was a spoof of the movie "The Blue Lagoon" (1980).
The original was 1949 with Jean Simmons and Donald Houston.
@@ajivins1 If I remember correctly, both films are adaptations of a book. I believe the 80s film was more faithful to the book. In any case, it'# the 80s f?lm that Top Secret is spoofing, but I appreciate you sharing the info that there's an earlier version, since I don't think most people know that.
@@ajivins1 Long before the band KISS, obviously.
Her glowing boobs are a spoof of E.T. 🤣
Correction: ZAZ never saw blue lagoon or even knew of its existence.
You see the Ford Pinto was noted for having a design flaw that left the gas tank vulnerable to leaking and possible fires from even minor collisions. The owner of the bookshop was played by Peter Cushing who had a long career in film but is best remembered by recent generations as the commander of the death star in the first "Star Wars" film.
The CGI Moff Tarkin from Rogue One was made possible because they had a full cast of Cushing's head, produced to make the giant eye prosthetic in that scene.
he's always Baron Frankenstein and Van Helsing to me...
Another funny movie with a young Val Kilmer is Real Genius. I wouldn't call it a spoof, but it really cracks me up.
Real Genius was a great movie, I think it was one of Val's best!
Unless you are a nail in a railroad tie.
I love Real Genius!
@@davidintel I have seen a medical device commercial currently that I think has the actor who played Ken. I haven't tried to confirm it yet. (and no, it did not involve Jell-O. or popcorn.)
@@CaptainFrost32 =)
It wouldn't surprise me. lol
It took me like 30 yrs to get that “he’s just a little horse” joke 🙃
"Is this the potato farm?"
"Yes, I am Albert Potato."
Val Kilmer and Michael Gough (the scientist) would be re-united in _Batman Forever,_ where Kilmer played Bruce Wayne/Batman, and Gough played Alfred.
Gotta add Real Genius to your list! Val kilmer’s first lead role as a super smart college student 😂
I hope you enjoyed THE Greatest underwater saloon fight in cinematic history 😋😎🤣
I also know a little German..... 😉 It's a shame you didn't get the Pinto joke lol but relevance is often lost as a film ages.
So happy to see you check out my favorite work from the writer/ director trio of Zucker/Abrahams/Zucker,
I love this movie ❤❤❤
EDIT: The amount of stuff happening in the background (a ZAZ trait) requires multiple viewings imo.
Fun Fact: The Swedish bookstore owner scene allowed the reappearance of a digital Gran Moff Tarkin (Peter Cushing) in the recent Star Wars films because they scanned the facial cast of Peter Cushing (RIP) that they made for this film.
I was going to say that, they accidentally found Peter Cushing’s face mold, which they used as the 3D digital model.
I'm sure the saloon fight inspired Brad Pitt's fighting in 'Snatch'!
@@Nanashicae *mould
"mold" is something completely different and "having face mold" would be a serious health problem.
@@Muck006 It's the same word in American English. The difference is mainly context.
With the cow "milk" and the ballet sequence, this movie wouldn't even dare get a PG today without angry parents. LOL!
6:32 is a joke that most wouldn't understand unless you were older when this came out, as Montgomery Ward isn't around anymore. Being on this mailing list pretty much guaranteed that your mailbox would be packed with junk mail/catalogs/flyers.
I'm trying to think of something today that this would relate to. Like posting someone's e-mail on porn sites, or signing them up for Scientology.
There is a bunch of stuff from current films of the time. If you have not seen The Blue Lagoon, or the Goldfinger car crushing, or not familiar with East Germany and the Berlin Wall, etc. It is all in there and a lot more.
I got a bullet in the leg coming over the wall in '81, my Dad hated me!
@10:48 The joke is: in a good restaurant a waiter offers you the cork to the wine bottle so you can smell it to approve (wines react with corks and you’ll know with one wiff if it’s gone bad). Here, it was a screw cap bottle, which means it wasn’t a good wine to begin with.
It was Ripple, a well-known cheap wine at the time.
The weirdest timeline ever, 40's Nazis, 50's rock, 60's East Germany, French Resistance in Germany??
One underrated joke that not a lot of people get is Hillary and Nick discussing the meaning of their names. She says her's means something like boobs that defy gravity, but then he says that since he's American his name doesn't mean anything and that his dad just came up with it while "he was shaving". Hilarious 😂😂😂
You always have to watch an Abrahams/Zucker movie a few times to hear the jokes you missed while you were laughing. It took me four times to realize that in the exterior shots of the plane in _Airplane!,_ the plane was a jet but it was making propeller sounds.
@@TXKafir The propeller sounds were kept in as the original movie that the script was built on was meant to be in a prop engine plane, not a jet. Having the background noise of the props instead of a jet just sells it instinctively.
All the castaway scenes are references to the movie Blue Lagoon that came out around that time
I had completely forgotten about that movie until I saw it referenced in this movie. Hopefully it won't be too long before I forget again. LOL.
23:55 - random trivia - the Swedish book keeper is played by Peter Cushing, in Star Wars he played Grand Moff Tarkin. To do the 'big eye' joke a cast of his face had to be made to fit the fake big eye over his face. Years later to bring the character of Grand Moff Tarkin back in CGI for the movie Rogue One that cast was found and scanned so his face could be remade in a computer. That's the connection between Rogue One and Top Secret.
Déjà View went on to be the butler on "Downton Abbey" but I've been calling him Deja View for almost 40 years.
With regard to the plot, this is a spoof movie but it isn't a spoof of spy movies. When Elvis Presley's star was rising, everybody wanted to make a quick buck off him. So they got him out to Hollywood and he made a bunch of low-budget movies all with the same plot: A singer gets involved with the wrong people and has to sing his way out of it. This is a spoof of those movies. That whole subplot with Nigel and Hillary was a spoof of a movie called _The Blue Lagoon._ That was hilarious in it's own right.
My friend and I saw this in the theaters when we were 15 and died laughing. When it came out on video I had a slumber party and we watched this movie and my friend who was a German exchange student got pretty offended. The two Germanys were still split at that time and it was a source of a lot of pain. I felt kinda bad and had to laugh about it in top secret....😬
Edit: she also said they're not actually speaking German.
I lived in the American sector of Berlin at that time, and yes, this film had hardly anything in common with the reality of that time. But it is still very funny.
Most people don't know that there's a big link to Elvis Presley in the movie, Val Kilmer played the part of a little boy who kicked Elvis in the shin in It Happened at the Worlds Fair, many years later he would play the role of Elvis in a biopic Elvis, most of the songs in the movie are variations of Elvis songs,Val Kilmer turned up looking to get the part in the movie dressed up looking like Elvis.
Top Secret was one of my favorite spoof movies, another one is the Hot Shots movies specially the 2nd one "Hot Shots pt. deux" .. one thing that I noticed here was a couple of times there was a joke being said that one of you was talking over and missed it completely, like after Hilary explained what her name meant and when he told her his name she asked what Nick meant and he replied "It was just something my father thought of when he was shaving", one of my favorite jokes and one of you talked over it but I don't know if you actually didn't hear it but I heard no reaction to it so I think you missed it.
One of the things I have noticed about a lot of reactors is sometimes they make a joke about something they thought was funny and use to many words and talk over a whole sentence and miss it completely and it happens to be an important or funny line. it's like some reactors think they need to say something every 10 seconds cause it is a reaction video, lol.
but I do enjoy watching you guys watch films I grew up watching. 🤟
That throwaway line about his name is one of my favorites. And his delivery is perfect!
When Nick finds the elderly scientist doctor, it's a future Bruce Wayne and Alfred.
The secret agent Cedric who ended up as a compacted car, is Omar Shrif. He starred in the classic epic award winning period drama...Lawrence of Arabia, based on a true story about Britain's involvement with the Arabic nation. It's one of those classic epic films...I love that he decided to be in this ridiculous slapstick surrealistic comedy with a then unknown Val Kilmer
My favorite moment...scene is where it turns out Omar Sharif survived his encounter with a car crusher...
This movie spoofs the old 50s-60s war time movies.
Some of the scenes are direct references to scenes from specific movies.
One that I think I remember that comes from this that you cut out is him escaping on a motorcycle and he jumps it in the style of, I think, "The Great Escape" (you should watch it).
25:40 is spoofing the movie, "The Blue Lagoon", with former supermodel Brooke Shields.
Not just war movies, but the Elvis movies too.
28:53 I think you might have missed the line where Hillary says 'i know it all sounds like a bad movie' before they broke the fourth wall.
We used to watch this movie over and over again as kids! We wanted to make our own slapstick movie. You have to watch this a few times, because there is always something going on on the background or a joke you miss…I believe if you’re going to attempt to do slapstick - go all out! This is a cult classic!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I'm 45 yes old and tis is classic comedy 🤣
Keep Rockn
Please watch the first of the Zucker Brothers comedy films 'Kentucky Fried Movie' it's absolutely hilarious, totally un-pc, and has a brilliant parody of Bruce Lee's film Enter the Dragon in it (so watch Enter the Dragon first😀). Another great reaction guys.
I love that while watching this ridiculous spoof with oversize gags in it, you unironically drink out of a gigantic juice jug. Bravo.
(FunFackt) :on top of train, man in white coat is famous OMAR SHARIFF..from LAWRENCE OF ARABIA
I know the Halloween season is over but another spoof movie I think you'd enjoy is Mel Brooks' Dracula: Dead and Loving It! It stars Mel as Van Helsing and Leslie Nielsen as Dracula :) Some other spoof movies I think you'd enjoy would be Johnny English, Hot Shots, Get Smart! (Which itself was once a spy spoof tv series co-created by Mel Brooks & Buck Henry), and possibly even Kung Pow: Enter the Fist.
Val Kilmer really can sing. That's his real voice in the songs (recorded in a studio separately of course)
There are so many wonderfully surreal moments in this movie. Still, my favorite gag is the Janitor's Closet" one. Simple, understated and hilarious.
If you got some good laughs and enjoyment out of it, that’s really what counts. It’s easy to see why Weird Al considers this his favorite. How silly can you get? I can understand parts not hitting with some people, but it has some of my favorite spoof gags. Even just something absurdly making sense like opening the janitor closet and finding the janitor standing inside gets me.
As is generally the case, if you’ve only watched a ZAZ or Brooks movie once, you’ve probably missed some peripheral jokes going on.
Its amazing how many ppl probably aren't aware of this movie. I've recommended it plenty 😅
Your generation won't get many of the jokes us older folks are still dying over. The movies from WWII and the Cold War, Elvis movies and on and on since most of those things had become public domain in the 60s and 70s. The older actors in AZ&Z movies are all from the ranks of the heroes in the aforementioned dramas. In Top Secret! The man with the mustache pretending to be shopping from the peddler is Omar Sharif. Another lead role romantic lead.
I struggle so hard with this movie
I grew up watching the guy who played Nigel - in the Scarlet Pimpernel . So seeing him in this glitches me so bad that it's alomost painful to watch. But it was fun watching your reactions to this.
All of the island stuff is a takeoff on the movie "The Blue Lagoon".
Look, up the Pinto Gas tank explosions of the early 1970's.
You guys would just lose it watching "There's Something About Mary" a comedy starring Cameron Diaz and Ben Stiller. From the eighties!
Later than the 80's.
Anyone recognize Ian McNiece as the blind street vendor?
24:38 the real trick is catching the book in such a way that it looks like it is being tossed up.
The “little German” part always reminds me of the trouble that the producers of Willy Wonka And The Chocolate Factory had trying to find little people in early-‘70s Germany.😨😱
loved the reaction... :D Underwater scene was amazing but you guys think that was awesome... Check Buster Keaton's General and see the train stunts they did back in 1920's... Man, its still flabbergast me today.
They had to wait so long for the trains to turn up to do them as well!
I'm not sure if anyone mention this, but Top Secret isn't a Spy Parody, but a Multi-genre Parody movie. The first scene; we are parody not only music like The Beach Boys, but the whole of the Beach Teen movies of the 60s. The movie is also doing a parody of Elvis Presley movies. One of the reasons why they rewrite 'Love Me Tonight' into a Marcy Ad. Kilmer also does his best Elvis during that scene. The overall theme is 50s and 60s War movies, as well as the whole spy parody. The scene of the island; is taken from the Brooke Shields movie, The Blue Lagoon. So you see; this isn't only one type of parody, like movie like Airplane, which parodies the Airport and Disaster films of the 70s. No; this parodies many movies types. All of it very clearly written; even the dumb jokes pay off big.
Between this, and Real Genius. really put Val Kilmer on the map. Also; Kilmer did all the singing himself. The soundtrack is actually under his character's name of Nick Rivers, but it's all Val.
Airplane definitely went more for verbal humor where this one was more visual.
This is a weird example where a comedy was meant to be 20 years earlier and got delayed, but still hilarious. It makes fun of the Beach Boys and Elvis Presley, and by the time it came out the kids of their fans were the ones watching it.
I'm waiting for the day when someone sees this for the first time and simply assumes that Skeet Surfing is a real thing that people do, because 'Murica. "Oh, this must be something they do in Texas."
The amazing thing is that island scenes that resemble blue lagoon where done without any knowledge of blue lagoon.
I think this is the hidden Zucker Abrahams Zucker masterpiece. I adore Airplane but I think this movie is just slightly better..
They put more effort and care into the underwater fight sequence than some more recent spoof had movies in their entirety.
Zuckers & Jim Abrahams did Airplane, Hot Shots, Naked Gun, Top Secret.
This movie is Grand Moff Tarkin’s last movie, Peter Cushing is the backwards man with the large eye and that was the first scene filmed for Val ever.
This movie was made around the same time as Airplane, and the Zucker brothers did admit that where Airplane had a decent plot backed up by the slapstick and comedy, Top Secret was pretty much the other way around. It's just a movie full of gags strung together by a very thin plot. One of my favourite movies though!
Has to be the most flex comedy out there. The lengths they go to for a joke.
Great job, guys. This might be the best reaction version of "Top Secret"
Man, Blazing Saddles and Young Frankenstein would’ve been rather odd if directed by Mel Gibson. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
normally - you might smell the cork with a bottle of wine. He smelled a screw top cap. that was the joke
The backwards part is the best.
I used to not think so, but I’ve reversed my opinion on it since then. ynnuf dna evisserpmi yrev yllaer s’tI
Montgomery Ward.. defunct department store and mail order business. If you were on their mailing list youd get a lot of junk mail catalogs. Mail order was the Amazon of the pre internet era. It was funny in 1984.
The 'algorithm' of the day, suggesting everything that they wanted you to buy.
There were a couple specific movie references you missed because of how old this is.
One very specific one is the scene where they were stranded on the beach. It's a reference to a movie called "The Blue Lagoon" It was one of the big hit films in 1980 and had a lot of controversy attached.
It would be interesting to see your reaction.
The 'boobs glowing' thing and the sound is a reference to E.T.. It's not enough of a joke to make it worthwhile to go watch that movie for it, but that's where it comes from. Not that E.T. is _bad,_ it's pretty awesome, but, if possible, get the _original_ and not the _sanitized_ version where police don't have guns 'because it's a kids movie'... yeah, right.
Let's remember that in that time the best female tennis champion was Martina Navratilova, one of the first lesbian public figures that came out of the closet.
You can watch Prince do the same move with his guitar onstage at the George Harrison tribute. Epic!
So glad you found this.
I'm also hoping you find Young Doctors In Love. You might not be able to get your jaws off the floor after that one.
The 20 min joke had you guys fucked up.
This movie is my #1 favorite comedy movie of all time.
Ford Pinto's had a rear crash issue.
Yes, you are wrong about Leslie NIELSEN 😄😅 I love this movie, I'm so glad you watched it! 😄
you guys are very funny and play well off each other. No doubt you'll get 10 k soon
An absolute must-see with Val Kilmer is the movie "Heat". (Robert DeNiro, Al Pacino, etc)
You guys didn't get the "It all sounds like a bad movie" and the fourth wall break after that
Great choice!!
The end credits on these spoof movies are always full of jokes, if you read and pay attention to them.
Have you guys watched "Blues Brothers"? LONG, long time ago and I'm not sure that you'd appreciate the musical score . . . I just thought I'd throw that suggestion out there.
Take care!
I'm not sure who wouldn't appreciate the music. It's amazing no matter how old you are. ✌🏽
The island scenes with Nigel are a spoof of the Blue Lagoon, starring Brooke Shields.
Naked Gun and Airplane are great movies, this movie is a very distant 3rd. Just my opinion.
I love this movie. It was so long when i seen it last time. I'm so glad you guys watch it and did reaction to it 😃
Bet you didn't know Val KIlmer did all his own singing in this movie.
“I’m sorry Nick, I’ve tried everything, I talked to the American Embassy, I just can’t bring my wife to orgasm.”
😂😂😂😂😂
Cool trivia....Val KIlmer did all his own singing.
I know this is silly and suppose to be but Val Kilmer actually did a good job portraying Jim Morrison in the doors movie . He can really sing
Simply a comedic masterpiece.
the scenes of Hillary and Nigel on the island are a parody of the movie The Blue Lagoon starring Brooke Shields.
5:42 that woman is the mother of either the zuckers or abrams.
Mel Brooks...not Gibson people are gonna roast you hard for that one lol. great reaction. I love that people still find this movie and like it. 'Airplane' is definitely the best of the spoof films with
'Not Another Teen Movie' being second ( you two should absolutely watch it.) and this one is third for me.
19:00 Obviously they "dont leave any marks" ... because it is A HOLLYWOOD MOVIE, where there is no blood and no marks from any physical violence.
the glowing boobs are a spoof of ET
the island scene is a spoof of the movie The Blue Lagoon
The scene in the Swedish bookstore is reversed because the Swedish language sounds as if someone were speaking in reverse (Swedes, no offense ! :))
Ripple was the cheapest wine you could buy. Bums drink it. Flavored fortified wine.
You have to watch "Stir Crazy". If they re-made it, they should cast you two as the leads lol.
This and Airplane are two of my all time favorite movies.
The feet seen running....then dancing! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
The island scene is a spoof of Blue Lagoon.
At about 17:00 there’s a photo of Cher on the wall of Nick’s jail cell. She and Val Kilmer were dating at the time.
LOL the prop room gag went right over your head;)
