@@matilda8675 IKR. I mean, yeah I know him best from one of my fav movies, V for Vendetta, and in it he plays a closeted gay man, but I never made the connection! How straight of me. 😆
Ashley I just need you to know that that cafe scene where Henry makes the joke abt Alex being a mouthful was one of the FIRST scenes they Taylor and Nick shot together on the first day of filming😭 these guys chemistry is fucking insane
It's a cheesy romcom for the gays and we are here for it. We didn't get cheesy romcoms growing up. It's not some deep movie but it had me crying because I could see myself in those characters. I felt represented. I got something I never had growing up. So no, it's not some cinematic masterpiece, but it was just what I needed.
RWRB was indeed a book before, and although it is a pretty good adaption it did make the grave error of not putting in the scene where the president makes a powerpoint titled "Exploring Your Sexuality: Healthy, but Does It Have To Be with the Prince of England?" after Alex comes out to her, which in my opinion is unforgivable
I also think it’s a crime they cut out all the side characters basically. Like even with the ones that are actually in the movie, we don’t really get any background info. They are really bland compared to the book. The book really should’ve been made into tv show in my opinion. There’s just too much good plot and characters for it to fit neatly into a movie. Although I liked the movie, the book was just so great and just so much more fun.
i just feel like the movie could’ve been the whole book 🤷🏻♀️ irdc I would’ve been sat a whole ass 24 hrs sobbing and screaming while eating popcorn/ice cream while holding the book for dear life
the scene where henry screams “my life is the crown and yours is politics and i will not trade one prison for another” had me crying, screaming and throwing up
when she said "okay macy's commercial," and then cut to her talking about the sponsor of today's video... i was about to freak out thinking that it was going to be macy's LOL, like talk about just iconic
Idc anyone says anything about Nicholas Galitzine acting but he never fails when it comes to being sad, heart broken? Yes. Gone through a divorce? Yes. Lost his job? Yes. Heart broken single dad whos recently been through a divorce lost his job and raising 3 kids all by his own? Yes. Ps: Ash really needs to get into the Studio Ghibli lore, shes gonna love it Edit: Especially my “My neighbor Totoro”
as fun as the movie is, the book just hit it out of the park for me, especially with the side characters and the character development of both Henry and Alex. it’s obviously impossible to perfectly adapt a full length novel in a 1,5 hour movie and they did as best as they could but the book is just so incredibly fun and special to me. if you enjoyed the movie, you’re going to LOVE the book!!
@@persgodiva Yesssss. Book Alex pissed me off so much. Maybe it's because I watched the movie before reading the book, but I also hated how the romantic Paris sex scene in the movie was just drunk sex in the books.
She actually DID make a slideshow about Alex dating Henry. Her main concern was if he was using government funds to go visit him (no), and taking him off her campaign.
i'm CRYING over ash thinking Henry's phone was a DS at 28:20 ... miss girl just made a secret getaway after receiving a heartfelt love confession and decided some nintendogs would soothe his soul on the way home
@@mslizzieforbesit’s the FUNNIEST shit, I swear! They’re in their we’re-friends-but-mutually-still-antagonistic phase, so Henry is just merciless in his polite, British teasing, and Alex is all flustered as hell because he had no idea he was terrified of fowl, and has no idea how to cope 😂 It’s the first time he actually calls Henry, instead of just texting, and it’s because he’s complaining about how freaky the gobbling is, and Henry is just being so droll about it, so he calls him to make him listen to the gobbling - and they won’t gobble on command, so 😂😂😂😂
When alex describes henry as white, blonde and british it kind of is a punch to the gut but it’s also because if u read the book everyone consistently compares them to each other when they’re not alike at all. Alex is the son of a Mexican immigrant and has never had life the way Henry has. Ofc henry has his own struggles but the comparison always bothered Alex because it’s very different. I can’t fully explain it bc am drunk but 1000% read the book! Its so good
the little message during the macy's sale bit was so cute. "all sales final. no coupons can be combined with sale items. goes through till new year. are y'all actually reading this? cute. i love you and i hope you are having a good day"
2:34 Seeing the absolute joy on Ashley's face at Henry and Alex being presented as enemies-to-lovers (in a sense; it's more like mutual antagonism/misjudgment-to-lovers) was so pure. I'm glad to know she's an ETL enjoyer. 🥰✨ 7:05 That extra confirmation was much appreciated. 💖
In the book, Alex goes to law school in New York to follow her mom's path of becoming a President. Henry opens up many charities for LGBTQ youth with one of its branches in New York. They live together and get married.
That's in the collectors edition of the book not many people know that detail I think it's obvious they will use that for the sequel especially with the tagline who would like another slice of cake that the poster showed when they announced the sequel.
Girl! when I tell you the book surprised me even more. I devoured it over an 8-hour flight. The writer basically thought of this alternate reality where a woman won after the 2016 debacle that happened in real life. The book is a definite recommend from me.
nicholas was in purple hearts (the military enemies to lovers that was filmed in my hometown) and it's so weird seeing him in this and in bottoms bc he really captured the military dudes from my hometown lmao
Omg that's also my hometown. I literally worked in the area and can't believe I didn't notice a film crew or anything during filming. I only watched the movie for the hometown rep but I had a hard time sitting through it haha. Purple Hearts was sponsored by Camp Pendleton and they had final say over the script which is no surprise that the movie was basically just Marine propaganda. 😐 I don't blame him for taking on the role tho especially as a relatively new actor at the time- he did a great job at making me hate his character 😅
@@ajp7968 I didn't know it was filmed there until I watched the movie 😭 but my cousin did meet Sofia Carson around the time they were filming and I was like "wth is Sofia doing here" lol
there's a bonus chapter in the book that shows their life a few year after these events (if you're planning on reading it don't read this comment). They do long distance for a while than move in together in a brownstone in new York, they get engaged and eventually move to a house in the middle of nowhere in Texas to be able to live a peaceful life. Author also comfirmed that they see them having kids in their mid/late thirties (i haven't read the book for a good year now so, people in the comments, correct me if i'm wrong.)
4:56 I'm sorry, but I cackled at Ashley's insertion of "Another One Bites the Dust" upon finding out Uma Thurman was U.S. president in this universe. 😆
Book reader here(and texan) Ellen Claremont has an accent because she grew up in a more rural part of Texas. Alex grew up in Austin. His lack of twang is realistic
Ppls expectations for this movie in the gutter when the trailer came out lol But I found it so charming & sweet, and you can tell the ppl involved had a good time & put true effort into it! It’s 100% a comfort movie and I will defend the two leads’ chemistry with MY LIFE!
Loved your OK CINEMA reaction to the paris scene. It's so rare to see a gay scene like that be as artistic and loving as this one and it honestly kinda meant a lot to see it shot and portrayed that way. They did a phenomenal job!
36:14 based on the special edition of the book, Henry abdicated a few years after they got together. The movie felt short and we needed more. Fans are bombarding Prime to do a sequel and there's been rumors going around there is a high possibility for it.
I agree that Nicholas is dedicated to his characters because he constantly learns to play instruments for his roles. Recently watched High Strung and his work with the violin is amazing for anyone, let alone someone who learned after getting the role. His goofiness in Bottoms is just another level that he isn't afraid to be the whole character. Excited for his next movie, I think coming out this year. Kind of makes you wonder what happened with Cinderella... lol but we won't open that discussion.
First, that Macy’s dig cracked me up way harder than it should have. And second, what do you get when two of your acting crushes are in the same room together? This chaos.
Additionally, if she does decide to read the book I would HIGHLY recommend getting the collectors edition of the book as it does have an epilogue chapter in Henry's perspective that does go over what happens after the events of the main story... As that is what Ashley was asking about at the end of the movie like what happens next??? the epilogue chapter will tell you! It's so good!!!
The fact that they’ve got a Persian actress/Persian character in this movie is all I need to love it so much as I do, we love Persian Rep! Luv ya Zahra! 🫶🏻🤭💕
@@pehnutbota Yep, it is mentionned in the movie when they are in Alex's bedroom and he admits that he fancies Alex "since the Melbourne climate conference, night 1" which is the same night that Alex introduced himself and got a cold shoulder from Henry
I was so totally waiting for your reaction to the Names scene 🤣 you did not disappoint, hahaha. I was gagged when i first saw that. Glad to know i was not the only onw xD.
Yes, this was/is a book, though this may be one of the only instances where I recommend watching the movie first. The book is not long, but it is PACKED cover-to-cover with content that is literally impossible to translate to film without an entire television series worth of episodes (the traditional 26), and even then they would've been pressed for time. Matthew made the call to focus the movie on the two of them, and make it a feel-good, uplifting, fairytale-like film, and he executed it perfectly. If you've read the book first, you can get distracted by thinking about what's there, what's not there, what's changed, etc. and end up not actually appreciating the movie for what it is. It is an adaptation, not a recitation. So reading the book after the film is sort of like unlocking a ton of bonus features for something you already enjoyed.
I’m excited to see Nicholas play alongside Anne Hathaway in the Idea of You in May!! It’s also based on a book that definitely feels like a Harry Styles fanfic 👀
It was the Rio Olympics, and what Henry REALLY said was, "Can you get rid of him?" Henry's explanation is mostly true to the book, with a few details left out: His father was a James Bond actor, and they were specifically visiting the cancer ward, in his honor.
Girl the way we had the same reactions throughout I'm deceased down to the I gotta go at the mouthful comment hahahah. Also I can confirm it was a great book.
I have ADHD and have been randomly remembering for months I need to register to vote and forgetting so actually thank you for the link cause I kept forgetting and not having any real idea where to start lol. I thought I had registered to vote when I was 18 but for some reason it didnt go through, literally no idea what happened but I've been meaning to register for 5 years now so :p
ash, to you and whoever is editing your videos, thank you for providing the best reaction to this film this website has offered us!! this video didn't miss, just tens across the board
If you end up reading the book, find a collector's edition copy. It includes an extra chapter epilogue. Most of the book centers on Alex's experience and pov, while the bonus epilogue is from Henry's.
SO WORTH THE WAIT!!!! your reactions were priceless. and yes it is a book!!! please read the book it is INCREDIBLE. they did a great job with the adaption but they definitely had to leave out a lot of the book bc it’s soooo dense & more complicated! also Taylor Zakhar Perez is his name and if you read the book you’ll see how INCREDIBLE of a job he did playing Alex. (we also all praise Nick’s portrayal of Henry, he does an amazing job with his emotions) but the book & first 3/4ths of the movie are Alex’s pov & Taylor used that book as a bible. Also you edited out a lot of parts/reactions that I’m guessing you probably didn’t have as much of a reaction to (which is fine!) but a lot of them happen to be like THE most important parts of the book carried into the movie. I don’t wanna say which ones bc I want you to read them in the context of the book for the first time! But this was SO fun. Taylor & Nick’s chemistry was truly insane like I felt like I needed to look away. The Paris scene was handled with such care & scenes like that don’t really exist in gay movies. And, again, T & N are delivering what was described of the characters in the book & how much they love each other when stuck in such difficult circumstances. Also glad you appreciated the phone call/text message scenes it was a great adaptation montage! Okay i’m gonna shut up now I could go on forever I love this little pink book and the movie so much. Thanks for reacting queen. 💓💓💓
I LOVED this film, but I felt so awkward realising the party scene in London was filmed at my uni instead of “Buckingham palace”. Look up University of Greenwich and you’ll see their ballroom is actually a classroom for Liberal Arts students 😂

this reaction rlly made my day!!! the excited scream i let out when i saw the notification!!! thank you for feeding us motherrrrrrr
It was the Rio Olympics, and what Henry REALLY said was, "Can you get rid of him?"
Henry's explanation is mostly true to the book, with a few details left out:
His father was a James Bond actor, and they were specifically visiting the cancer ward, in his honor.
Stop I wanted to say I love you ash literally love your personality you’re real and bubbly and I’ve loved your content for 2 years 💕💕
Girl the way we had the same reactions throughout I'm deceased down to the I gotta go at the mouthful comment hahahah. Also I can confirm it was a great book.
ASHLEY I'M SO HAPPY YOU'RE WATCHING RWRB!!!!! 🎉🎉
also the crown!!!!!!
I have ADHD and have been randomly remembering for months I need to register to vote and forgetting so actually thank you for the link cause I kept forgetting and not having any real idea where to start lol. I thought I had registered to vote when I was 18 but for some reason it didnt go through, literally no idea what happened but I've been meaning to register for 5 years now so :p
you uploaded this right before i went to lunch!! you knew!! i’ve been waiting for this reaction for what feels like years!!!
Gets me every time that Stephen Fry, known and beloved limp wrist, plays the king in this. Genius casting 🤣
I can’t say it enough: NICHOLAS IS A FUCKING ARTIST! I love him so much, and he’s always divine in every part he plays. And if he sings, even better 🩵
ash, to you and whoever is editing your videos, thank you for providing the best reaction to this film this website has offered us!! this video didn't miss, just tens across the board
If you end up reading the book, find a collector's edition copy. It includes an extra chapter epilogue. Most of the book centers on Alex's experience and pov, while the bonus epilogue is from Henry's.
This was such an entertaining video, but your pep talk at 34:45 was a lovely, unexpected note of hope when I really needed it. Thank you. 😊
Loved the reaction and your outfit, you looked like a disney princess🥺
Her saying "Come on eye lashes" and "Miguel you fucking ass" send me 😂😂😂😂
The way Miguel had very little scenes but had my blood boiling ... i couldnt 😂
SO WORTH THE WAIT!!!! your reactions were priceless. and yes it is a book!!! please read the book it is INCREDIBLE. they did a great job with the adaption but they definitely had to leave out a lot of the book bc it’s soooo dense & more complicated! also Taylor Zakhar Perez is his name and if you read the book you’ll see how INCREDIBLE of a job he did playing Alex. (we also all praise Nick’s portrayal of Henry, he does an amazing job with his emotions) but the book & first 3/4ths of the movie are Alex’s pov & Taylor used that book as a bible. Also you edited out a lot of parts/reactions that I’m guessing you probably didn’t have as much of a reaction to (which is fine!) but a lot of them happen to be like THE most important parts of the book carried into the movie. I don’t wanna say which ones bc I want you to read them in the context of the book for the first time! But this was SO fun. Taylor & Nick’s chemistry was truly insane like I felt like I needed to look away. The Paris scene was handled with such care & scenes like that don’t really exist in gay movies. And, again, T & N are delivering what was described of the characters in the book & how much they love each other when stuck in such difficult circumstances. Also glad you appreciated the phone call/text message scenes it was a great adaptation montage! Okay i’m gonna shut up now I could go on forever I love this little pink book and the movie so much. Thanks for reacting queen. 💓💓💓
im from austin, and girlll the map had me STRESSED
Your reactions are so genuine and fun! It's very refreshing!
I LOVED this film, but I felt so awkward realising the party scene in London was filmed at my uni instead of “Buckingham palace”. Look up University of Greenwich and you’ll see their ballroom is actually a classroom for Liberal Arts students 😂
