I still stand by the fact that Isabelle Fuhrmann should be a bigger and more famous actress than she is now. She crushed this role AT TWELVE and then came back at 25 and ate AGAIN in the prequel. I think she was an unfortunate case of typecasting after this movie, but she's clearly so talented. I want to see her in more dramatic roles!
Yes ! I mean she auditionned for Katniss in the Hunger Games but was preferred for Clove. I loved both Jen and hers performances but I sure do wonder how Isabelle would've done as Katniss. Also wonder where she'll be now if she had been the Hunger Games' protagonist. I sure do Hope she's happy with where She's at though !
I read that the deaf little girl wasn't originally part of the movie, but her family were neighbours of a casting person who met her and was like "I NEED to put this girl in a movie" and so she was cast just because she was that adorable 😆
It's so hard to believe that Isabelle Fuhrmann (little Esther herself) was only 12 YEARS OLD for this movie. She went all in on the character and apparently was fully dedicated to portraying her as authentically as possible. And the fact of her going back to play the character again a DECADE later and STILL knocked it out of the park. Like MA'AM! Where is the Oscar that is long overdue?
I’m not gon lie it makes me so uneasy that she was a literal child like my god. I hope that woman is flourishing! She was and I’m sure still is insanely talented 😭😭
@@AlandaParkeron your own time you should check out The Novice! she plays the lead in that and is brilliant in it. she’s also in Escape Room 2 and The Hunger Games. I’m glad she doesn’t seem traumatized from this film and is even in the sequel, but it makes me feel uneasy too 😭😭 i’m sure a lot of the third act was done by (adult-aged) body doubles though
@@tristanmovies8629Traumatized? Do you think the director is screaming in the girls face telling her to act better or something? When they're working with child actors they are very cautious to keep thing psychologically positive. If anything she probably had the time of her life with her parents on set supporting her. It's 2024. I thought everyone knew every little detail about the film making process. I guess I was wrong. Maybe there still is some room for people to be fooled by the illusion.

@@AlandaParker One of my favorite reviewers dinged the movie because the point as to which people blindly mistrusted Kate got to the point of unbelievability. I love the movie, but I have to agree. It wasn't just the fact that the husband didn't believe her, it was that NO ONE around was paying attention
Isabelle Fuhrman is so ludicrously talented. Imagine being a child, and playing an adult who is pretending to be a child, and performing it flawlessly. I wish she was in more If you want to see more of her, other notable films she's been in are the original Hunger Games movie, The Novice (probably her best performance but it's more of a drama and character piece; not sure if it would go on the channel but at the very least worth watching on your own time for sure), and yes, Orphan: First Kill
The husband (while still an idiot) had long checked out on his wife, their children and their entire union. Her substance abuse was the cop-out he needed, and Ester was the perfect buffer for him. One less “child” to raise, and a pre-built “babysitter” for his daughter. Grandma didn’t even understand her job. Family was all effed up.
"Do you need....... the orphan??" LMFAO that was so good, and yeah, that little angel would be more than enough perfection for me were it my child!!!!!
Never clicked so fast! I remember being HORRIFIED by the part where she breaks her arm when I saw this as a kid. ALSO this video being over an hour long just MADE MY WEEKEND! Thank you Alanda!!!!
This movie went so much further than I was expecting. When she keeps making moves on the dad I was in SHAMBLES! So disturbing. Like "Wtf is wrong with this child?! Why is she lik-.....Ohhhh. OK. I get it. That twist just put me in the floor but at least I get it now." 😳😳
@@ciarau12 I know! 😂 I'm thinking Oh, Alanda. Say the words "cute" and "adorable" while you can. When the movie takes that hard left turn halfway through....ain't a darn thing cute! 😂
The actress who played Max is actually hearing impaired in real life. She also plays Alice's daughter in Resident Evil: Retribution , which that character is also hearing impaired.
Life be TRASH, but you videos make things more bearable like you keep coming when I need you the most I swear😭 so excited that you reacted to this, I used to be so obsessed with this movie
You did Orphan you did Orphan!! Watching people react to this movie is one of my favorite things ever, lol. "She's cute. I'm scared though." is gold, what a way to sum up most of the movie!
My wife and I have three kids. Originally, we wanted four, but our third was such a handful. So, I get the "leaving well enough alone" comment. I couldn't imagine having another at this point
I remember subbing to you years ago. I still forget you didn’t always do horror and haven’t seen everything yet. I was excited you finally made your way to Orphan. Commenting before I even watch because I know it’s gonna be a good time as always. Thanks for posting girl!
Alanda you look so beautiful girl! The face card is flawless! And the pink ribbons are giving the extra glow up with your rose blusher color palette. Gorge!!! 🩷
Fun fact the actress that played Ester, was indeed a child actor and she reprised the role in the prequel (Orphan First Kill) years later but is in her mid 20s 😂
I just realized that Esther got off pretty easy for pushing the bully. There was snow on the ground which cushioned the impact when she hit the ground. It could have been MUCH worse if it was just grass or concrete
On the upside, one of the greatest twists in movie history. On the downside, also one of the most infuriatingly unhelpful husbands/boyfriends in movie history.
I knew you would gag at this movie, its honestly too underrated imo. It's truly sad and infuriating at times, while maintaining a sense of uneasiness throughout. Amazing movie, with a sickening twist. Also loving this hairstyle, the bows r so cute 😭💗
I’m glad you finally watched this! Watching the movie in the theaters when it came out was one of the wildest experiences of my life. 😂 The entire audience was on edge and stressed out. I remember everyone going crazy when Max picked that gun up! But this movie is amazing! The entire cast killed it but baby, Vera Farmiga is a force! That’s a mother right there.
Alanda, you are ABSOLUTELY spot on. The actress playing Ester (Isabelle Fuhrman) was absolutely SPECTACULAR in this movie! I HOPE that she got some kind of award for this movie.
*I remembered watching this movie with my mom when it first came out. Orphan is a really good movie because when we watched it in theaters the entire audience gasps of Esther's secret came out.*
Isabelle Fuhrman was incredible in the first film. A child actor successfully playing both creepy-child and evil-adult sides of this role is very impressive. The prequel adds a fascinating mirror, as she started in the role as a child playing an adult playing a child, but then came back as an adult playing the adult playing a child, getting to play both sides of Esther/Leena's dichotomy from opposite directions.
I found out later this script was auctioned and WB liked it and wanted to make it. So to those who shop their screenplays around, never give up! Orphan is an insane and intense psychological 2 hour masterpiece featuring a powerhouse performance from Vera Farmiga. It came out too soon, if a studio like NEON or a24 made it in 2024, the film would be more acclaimed.
Of the two real life cases that inspired this movie, one involved a woman convincing another woman that she was an abused underaged girl and that the woman should adopt her. The second case involved a couple accusing the little girl they adopted of being a grown woman, and it ended up being proven she was just a little girl. I'm fairly sure the couple got charged with abuse/neglect of her as well.
I hate the husband so much, you have known this girl for 5 minutes and believing and trusting her over everyone. This movie is so good, I rewatch it often
@@tajkiachoudhury6932yes and that’s the believable part but for gods sake who doesn’t think about a little more “mmm weird shit started to happen in my house ever since that girl showed up 🤔. A girl got hurt, a nun goes missing, she cuts the flowers of my still burn baby, my sons treehouse was on fire, he almost died, and my wife has been telling me that she is weird…. Nah it most be that my wife is insecure as hell and crazy 🤪” Cmon just a lot of father and therapists are portraied as super dumb in this films it’s frustrating to see but yeah it can be entertaining.
@@tajkiachoudhury6932 a nun cane to the house and said the little girl was dangerous and was found bludgeoned to death outside the home. Stop focusing on the wife, you’re just as dumb as the husband if wouldn’t suspect the little girl anyways.
I get why you kept wondering why they needed more. I feel like sometimes we all spend so much time focusing on what we don’t have, instead of on what we do have.
Just seeing you uploaded has cheered me up, thank you for your sweet messages of love, positivity and joy in your intros. Sending some hope and inspiration back your way too girl ❤
Not me gasping after seeing the JAW DROPPING look miss thing is gracing us with today. The ribbons are literally everything im living for at the moment ❤
Seeing how Alanda worries about the children in these horror movies makes me hope she reacts to The Others. I'm sure she'd be just as protective over the kids in that film to plus it was one of those films I remember watching a lot when I was younger.
Just want to say I love your reaction. They make my day every time I see the notification. I love that you’re doing this movie and the prequel is good as well.
I LOVE Mama Parker to the world and back. Max really is the most adorable kid. Your comment that Esther was an ancient vampire was soooo on point. Your instincts are just *chef's kiss*. I'm glad we all agree that the husband is a useless, smirking fool. (So was that therapist! Woman, you showed no skills!) And once again, no matter how many great reactions I watch, yours always top them all!
This movie is amazing, and the sequel is actually a PREQUEL, but even if you know the twist in the first one, the second one still has a few pretty big surprises and turns. Also, it's the same actress playing Esther, but since she was grown up, they used some camera tricks, make-up, and some really neat tricks to sell the idea that she's a little girl. It helps that Isabelle Fuhrman has a very child-like face and you never QUITE forget she's much older, but the illusion works well enough to let you buy the story for the movie's runtime. Also, Julia Styles is in it!
Also! Vera Farmiga just debuted her first single called “the crying room” with her band THE YAGAS. It’s such a good song and she ate the vocals and video! Go support MOTHER!!!!
Seeing Alanda's reaction makes me so happy i'm not the only 1 who had the reactions i had and the annoyance with the husband and grandma. All of the thoughts i had Alanda put into words😂
55:26: "Calling to be like you have a 1000 year old murderous vampire on your hands...she swam there...no boat" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Alanda, definitely watch the prequel, First Kill. It gives a great backstory! Love your channel.
You’ll love the new one , it’s actually really great! You’ll LOVE cheering for Esther in it! My baby Angel is Max’s age and staying at her moms right now so this is making me so emotional jsut seeing this angel! Ugh thanks for making this light with your laughter! 🙂
We all up in the comments arguing about who was worse Vera or the husband but when I tell you I would hex Dr. Browning with everything in me... Like I would make sure that lady never knew peace 🤧
hey Alanda, i would LOVE if you reacted to Death Proof (2007) i swear you will live for it. it’s your kind of movie. love your content ❤
I'm the husband's number one hater🏃♀
You should wActh the alternate ending to this movie, it’s just like a couple of minutes and in it Esther is the only survivor.

Another horror movie of a husband ignoring every red flag while his wife loses her fucking mind trying to convince him 💀

Because we're seeing from the villain's pov. How could you possibly see these as red flags when the wife has a history of alcohol abuse and neglect.

@@tajkiachoudhury6932yes and that’s the believable part but for gods sake who doesn’t think about a little more “mmm weird shit started to happen in my house ever since that girl showed up 🤔. A girl got hurt, a nun goes missing, she cuts the flowers of my still burn baby, my sons treehouse was on fire, he almost died, and my wife has been telling me that she is weird…. Nah it most be that my wife is insecure as hell and crazy 🤪”
Cmon just a lot of father and therapists are portraied as super dumb in this films it’s frustrating to see but yeah it can be entertaining.
@@tajkiachoudhury6932 🤣💯
@@tajkiachoudhury6932 a nun cane to the house and said the little girl was dangerous and was found bludgeoned to death outside the home.
Stop focusing on the wife, you’re just as dumb as the husband if wouldn’t suspect the little girl anyways.
I get why you kept wondering why they needed more. I feel like sometimes we all spend so much time focusing on what we don’t have, instead of on what we do have.
Babe I'm living for these looks. You have inspired me to also try and become the ribbon girlie I always thought I was
Do it it’s so fun! 🙂↕️🥰
This is not what i meant when i said girl
power 😂🤣
This was a great reaction! 👏 hope you react to the prequel to this!
You've heard of women's rights, now get ready for women's wrongs 🥰
Just seeing you uploaded has cheered me up, thank you for your sweet messages of love, positivity and joy in your intros.
Sending some hope and inspiration back your way too girl ❤
my spirits are always lifted when ever I see a new movie reaction from Alanda Parker.
Not me gasping after seeing the JAW DROPPING look miss thing is gracing us with today. The ribbons are literally everything im living for at the moment ❤
right😍 she looks amazing
Seeing how Alanda worries about the children in these horror movies makes me hope she reacts to The Others. I'm sure she'd be just as protective over the kids in that film to plus it was one of those films I remember watching a lot when I was younger.
Love the bows! Thanks for blessing us with another great video!
Every time I see CCH Pounder I just see Max’s mom on Living Single. Even Esther wouldn’t mess with Nina Shaw 😂😂😂
Just want to say I love your reaction. They make my day every time I see the notification. I love that you’re doing this movie and the prequel is good as well.
"Two isn't enough??" "Do you need...the orphan?" I'm sorry but this took me out! Only Alanda with this kind of wit
14:18 "Oh no burn it down!...Esther, isn't that your specialty?" 👀🤭
I LOVE Mama Parker to the world and back. Max really is the most adorable kid. Your comment that Esther was an ancient vampire was soooo on point. Your instincts are just *chef's kiss*. I'm glad we all agree that the husband is a useless, smirking fool. (So was that therapist! Woman, you showed no skills!) And once again, no matter how many great reactions I watch, yours always top them all!
This movie is amazing, and the sequel is actually a PREQUEL, but even if you know the twist in the first one, the second one still has a few pretty big surprises and turns. Also, it's the same actress playing Esther, but since she was grown up, they used some camera tricks, make-up, and some really neat tricks to sell the idea that she's a little girl. It helps that Isabelle Fuhrman has a very child-like face and you never QUITE forget she's much older, but the illusion works well enough to let you buy the story for the movie's runtime. Also, Julia Styles is in it!
Also! Vera Farmiga just debuted her first single called “the crying room” with her band THE YAGAS. It’s such a good song and she ate the vocals and video! Go support MOTHER!!!!
omg knew she had a band months ago love it😍
i am so happy the twist was preserved for you
Isabelle Furhman was born to play Esther I swear. She was 11 years old when she did this movie. Dope reaction girl.
This movie is the spiritual granddaughter of “The Good Son”… #HorrorHistory… Worst non-deadly Husband in Horror history.
Seeing Alanda's reaction makes me so happy i'm not the only 1 who had the reactions i had and the annoyance with the husband and grandma. All of the thoughts i had Alanda put into words😂
26:33 Max is just very smart. She saw what Esther is capable of, twice! Yeah I rather be in her good side 😅
The bows are appropriate today 😂
Thank you beautiful😍 for reaching to one of the most underrated…but outstanding horror movies. Glad you enjoyed it! Much love and support 🫶🏾😌🥰
right😍
@@myajanell2504 facts 😌
I just found out yesterday that Vera is the lead vocalist in a metal band and I am gooped!
"Like you're eating them up in your Old Navy hoodie"😭😭🤣 I used to fucking hate my old navy clothes.

55:26: "Calling to be like you have a 1000 year old murderous vampire on your hands...she swam there...no boat" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Alanda, definitely watch the prequel, First Kill. It gives a great backstory! Love your channel.
GIRL POWER became GIRL REGRET real fast 🤭
Girl, this was a RIOT 😂
The perfect video to finish my last hour of work to ❤ And your hair is so cute!
You’ll love the new one , it’s actually really great! You’ll LOVE cheering for Esther in it!
