    my favorite bit of trivia about the making of this movie is the fact that the actor (wolfgang bodison) that played 'Dawson' was reiner's personal assistant and never acted before this film. reiner had trouble casting for the Dawson role and went with his instincts and decided to give the role to bodison. he was phenomenal on his first job :)

    Kevin Pollack adds so much to this movie. This is my favorite movie of all time. Also, if no one has said it yet, the lawyer in the bar telling someone he will make him go blind on paperwork is the writer Aaron Sorkin. There is a mistake in the movie that I can't unsee now every time I watch. When Jessup is leaving to go to his base and gets stopped by the mps he is wearing a tie. Later in the same scene he isn't, then it comes back.

    Loved your faces during the crucial scene...😄😄 Nicholson did 10 days work and was paid $5 million. Jack Nicholson kept up the same intensity in every take. He was on the set when the other actors were being filmed in their shots in the courtroom, feeding them his lines off screen. He played his role exactly the same off screen. Rob Reiner took him aside and said that he could keep some of his intensity for when he was being filmed but Jack explained 'Rob, I just love to act...: and did it the same way over and over and over.

It's a movie I think that most people don't know but it's a very good drama with an incredible ending. You really owe it to yourselves to watch it even if it doesn't get voted on, because like I said a lot of people are just unfamiliar with it. I think mostly because the title doesn't really evoke a strong reaction thinking it might be boring but it's not. A really good watch.

    What makes this movie more realistic for me is it shows the truth of serving so many young men swear oaths and sign their lives away for the belief they are serving something greater than themselves but far too many of the people who end up controlling their fate don't have any intention of living up to those same oath's. Too many officers believe the men they are entrusted to command are less important than them and their careers so are more than happy to abuse their authority and power in order to !make themselves look good at the expense of their troops quality of life mental health time with family or even their lives.

    I saw this movie a few (good) times when it first came out, and I had Jack Nicholson's big courtroom diatribe locked into my brain after only a few (good) viewings. I've been able to repeat the entire thing without effort for thirty years now, it's like muscle memory at this point. But this reaction video is actually the first time that I noticed that the cinematographer was Robert Richardson, who has shot several Quentin Tarantino and Oliver Stone films. He has a distinct lighting setup where a very bright white light will shine down on the tops of actors' heads. Funny how I never spotted that before.

He plays a washed-up alcoholic attorney who gets a case that could turn his life around, but he’s woefully unprepared for a complicated case against a very powerful law firm. Like I said…one of the greatest ever made.

    Marine veteran here. This is one of the few military-themed films I enjoy. The story was great. The conviction on Unbecoming unfair, but not unexpected. The representation of the Marines in this though is probably the closest to the reality I experienced in the Corps. Kevin Bacon's military alignment was really good. I've known several First Lieutenants (and Captains) that were Keifer Sutherland all day. (Even a few butterbars like him, which brings back some comedic memories.) I took a Sergeant board in front of the 11th Marines Regimental Commander who, had he personally advised Jack Nicholson, I wouldn't be surprised. And I spent my last two years in the Corps at HQMC at Henderson Hall in Arlington, VA so the landscape was extremely familiar. All-in-all, Sorkin, the producers and director did a really nice job at creating a realistic environment.
    Full Metal Jacket on the other hand, is a travesty on the accuracy scale. R. Lee Ermy is fantastic and, as a former DI, he knew his role perfectly. But everyone else in the film is awful and the entire second half seems to have been written and directed by someone who hadn't spent 30 seconds around an actual Marine. It's as if they watched a bunch of Hollywood military film garbage and decided to one-up them all in ridiculousness. It's not even a case of poetic license; it's closer to recruiting a commune of hippie conscientious objectors from 1967 to write the screenplay and deciding, "Yup, they'd know better than anyone." So as long as you keep that in mind and take it purely with a truckload of salt, you'll be fine and it'll pass as entertainment. Lots of people really like it, but I've never known a Marine who likes anything about it, aside from Ermy's character.

    Hey, fellow Tucson people! So glad to be able to watch your reaction to this masterpiece. I worked at the Century Park 12 (later 16) in the early and mid nineties when it was unrivaled for movie presentation in Tucson - Even had one 70mm projector. It was so awe inspiring to see Jack Nicholson's face cropped at the wrinkled forehead on one of those massive parabolic screens in one of those 4 giant domes that anchored the facility. We employees saw all the new movies on Thursday night after midnight before their Friday debuts (not make sure the film was spliced and built up properly, ostensibly) and those parties were the single biggest fringe benefit to working there. I also worked Jurassic Park, Lion King, Beauty and the Beast, Pulp Fiction, Wayne's World, Star Trek: Generations, Casino, Natural Born Killers, Batman Returns, Mission Impossible (1996), and countless others.
    I wonder, did you two ever see movies there? It's now demolished in favor of a Yaqui Casino, of course. Also, did you know that before the Century Park, that property (Fairview off of Grant) was the Tucson 5 Drive In? I saw the Theatrical Re-Release of Star Wars there in 1978, having seen it the year before during its first run at the old El Dorado next to Park Mall at age 5 (Park Mall and El Con were the only malls at the time). Anyway, there's something indelible about seeing that grand starscape, those crawling credits and the desert planet below framed in the starry desert sky with "A" Mountain and the Tucson Mountains on the horizon. Of course, I would never go back to those speakers clipped to the half-rolled down window, not once we got THX Dolby Surround Sound in those domes.
    But enough about Star Wars. Love your channel, so proud to be represented by you in the "reactor space".

      Oh man, we miss Century Park so much! We saw SO MANY of our favorite films there for the first time! That was our go to theater! So glad you found us!
      Had no clue that was a Drive-in before. We only went to De-Anza back in the day! Thanks for the history!

    Great reaction guys !!! I'd like to suggest another courtroom thriller "A TIME TO KILL" based on the John Grisham thriller novel. Stars Matthew McConnahey, Samuel L. Jackson, Sandra Bullock, Ashley Judd, Kevin Pollock, Charles S.Dutton, Donald and Kieffer Sutherland plus many many more. This movie for decades, as a father....You must ask yourself. "What would I have done?" Equal memorable courtroom dialog as what we just watched. McConnahey Bullock and Jackson at their best acting EVER !!!!

    Some other "military court-room dramas"....
    Hart's War - Bruce Willis, Colin Farrell
    Conduct Unbecoming - a British movie with mostly British actors (Michael York, Richard Attenborough, Trevor Howard, Susannah York), but including American Stacy Keach, and Canadian Christopher Plummer.

    The number of courtroom films are legion. Some of the best include: Witness for the Prosecution (1957), To Kill a Mockingbird, Inherit the Wind (featuring an acting dual between two of the greatest actors in screen history), Adam's Rib, Twelve Angry Men (1957), Anatomy of a Murder, The Caine Mutiny, and A Matter of Life and Death (aka Stairway to Heaven),

    @salserio6727 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Military films...
    The Last Detail (another Jack Nicholson classic)
    In Harm's Way (Starring John Wayne, Kirk Douglas, and many others... one of my favorite post-Pearl Harbor movies)
    The Final Countdown (Kirk Douglas, Martin Sheen... a great military movie with a sci-fi twist.)

    You are sensitive, smart and really reacted during all the highlight moments. Thank you.

    My recommendation is not exactly a courtroom movie, but I'm sure you're gonna love it : Courage Under Fire.

    I'd consider this up there with movie like Rain Man and The Firm as 1 of Tom Cruise's best acting in movies and also best movies. Speaking of The Firm, did you ever watch that Tom Cruise film? Crimson Tide is another movie that immediately comes to mind as far as incredible acting and high stakes tense drama.

    Stay tuned for the follow up movie "A Few Good Men Part II". Col. Jessep seeing what a good lawyer Danny is hires him to represent him for his trial. Danny successfully plea bargains the case down to 6 months probation and conduct unbecoming an officer, which results in Danny finally earning himself those steak knives. Col. Jessep after finding himself court martialed teams up with Harold and Louden to open a hot dog stand on the streets of Washington.

    If you want to do another great and pretty accurate court room drama. Watch “The Rainmaker” it’s an adaptation of a John Grisham novel of the same name starring a young Matt Dameon and Danny DeVito, and Jon Voight. It’s so good.

  • @redddawggg
    @redddawggg 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I can't remember when was the first time I watched this one. Came out in '92? So I was prolly fifteen.
    Great Movie!!!! Sorkin is phenomenal.
    That 'handle the truth' line. It's gotta be top five in most recognizable quotes eh?? 😂
    I like that two attractive leads could interact as professionals without falling in bed together. Not very common for Hollywood.
    Favorite war movies? Hurt Locker, Jarhead, Thin Red Line. Some of my favorite war movies!!! 🤘🏾😝

  • @kenyattaclay7666
    @kenyattaclay7666 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    A few interesting tidbits about this movie, this was actually loosely based off of a true story. However in real life the victim didn’t die & there were 10 Marines who carried out the Code Red. 7 of them took plea deals & three actually went to trial. They won at trial and they actually stayed on active duty. It’s believed that the Downey (the white Marine) character was loosely based off of one marine who was from Maryland who was found murdered a year or two after this movie came out. His murder was never solved & was featured on Unsolved Mysteries.

  • @Markus117d
    @Markus117d 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    He didn't want to transfer the marine, Because that would just be moving a "weak link " elsewhere in the Corps. He wanted to fix the problem not sweep it under the carpet so to speak, But obviously it's not a good way to go about it and because of the marine's underlying health problems resulting in a death & resultant coverup, Brought the whole edifice down...

    Two comments. In all the reaction shots in the courtroom during Jack's testimony, Nicholson gave a full throated performance each time. Also, the base doctor should have been asked if he had 6 fingers on his right hand.

    If you guys want to react to more great legal thrillers from the '90s/00's then you should check out the John Grisham movie adaptations - The Firm starring Tom Cruise, The Pelican Brief starring Denzel Washington & Julia Roberts, The Client with Susan Sarandon & Tommy Lee Jones, A Time To Kill with Mathew McConaughy, Sandra Bullock & Samual L. Jackson and The Rainmaker with Matt Damon & Danny Devito.
