He was a Chicago cop for 18 years.

When the Duke thanked Jack at the end and Jack thanked him, Jack wasn't thanking him for the money. He was thanking him for helping him realize that his watch (his old life) had to be replaced.

Fun Fact: The boxcar scene where Jack Walsh (Robert De Niro) and John Mardukas (Charles Grodin) discuss whether or not they could ever be friends was almost entirely improvised on-set. Regarding Charles Grodin's famous line, "You ever had sex with an animal, Jack?": he was told by director Martin Brest to come up with something that was guaranteed to make even Robert De Niro laugh. Also, Robert De Niro spent time with bounty hunters as part of his preparation for this role and John Ashton said that Robert De Niro got into his part so much that he actually hit John Ashton during the fight scene on the train.

This is one of my favorite DeNiro movies ever, the chemistry between him and Charles Grodin was incredible as is the rest of the cast. I’ve been requesting it for over a year.😂👍

This film has one of the greatest retorts and rants in screen history, and who better to deliver the absolutely rhythmic and unmistakable sounds of swearing than the King... Robert Deniro.

Glad to see this get a reaction from a bigger reaction channel. I kinda feel like this is a forgotten film when it's really terrific and should be seen by everyone. Not one of the greatest buddy comedies but definitely a worthy one, and one that showed DeNiro has the chops for comedy as well as drama.

One of my favorites so glad you folks got to watch it ☺️ Edited after watching : my brother-in-law was a mechanic in the Marines during desert shield he told me ,"Helicopters are always in the process of crashing, the pilot keeps them in the air and I make sure they get to retirement but if they had it their way they'd hit the ground every time they go up!". The blade in the rear of the copter pushed the center plain of the copter in the opposite direction of the larger blade on tops spin, without the little blade the engine starts to rotate the copter's body because the small blade is no longer there to push against it and the new plain becomes the connection between the engine and blade. The small blade can be so much smaller than the large blade because the engine transfers a lot of its power to the rotation of the large blade but without the small blade even the small amount of power makes the engine and large blade move away from each other at the connection and thus... Boom. So yup! You remove the small blade the copter gets it's wish to crash !😔

Excellent film. Grodin is wonderful. Great score by Danny Elfman too.

As much as I love the back and forth between Deniro and Grodin, my favorite exchange is when the ticket agent asks Marvin, "Smoking or non-smoking?" And Marvin (with a cigarette hanging from his mouth) says, "Take a wild guess."

As someone who grew up in the 80's, it's weird to see which movies stuck in pop culture and which ones didn't. This movie was huge in my high school, everyone quoted it ("I've come too f*n far", "see you in the next life," "Serrano's got the disks! Serrano's got the disks!") but then somehow it disappeared off the face of the earth while other movies stayed famous, and I don't know why.

So to answer TBR and Sam's question about phones... My grandmother had an old fashioned rotary phone. Those had a circle dial face in which you turned with your finger for every number needed for the number you were dialing. As the dial spun around it sent the number of "clicking sounds" along the line to the phone company. The phone company could determine what number you were dialing based on the amount of clicking noises for each specific individual number. Sorry, it's hard to explain this any easier for non-rotary phone users. 🤷 When push button dial phones came out, the phone company needed a different tone for each individual number, to determine what phone number you were trying to dial, since the rotary "clicking" sound did not exist anymore.

(Yaphet Koto from Alien is great as Mosley, and Joe Palatano from Memento is also great). Seeing DeNiro in an out-and out comedy was seen as novel.....but he did do "The King Of Comedy" before this, and that movie is crazy! (A non-mob Scorsese/De Niro collaboration). He also was in Terry Gilliam's "Brazil" (in a small part). But this was a specific type of comedy: a commercial, action, buddy movie with lots of car chases and stunts. It was definitely seen as a departure.

The rear propeller on a helicopter is what stabilizes it; if it's sufficiently damaged, the chopper will go into an uncontrollable spin. The same thing happened in Blackhawk Down when the choppers got hit in the tail with RPGs.

This is the movie that Leonardo Di Caprio's dad took him to in a theater to introduce him to Robert De Niro. A couple yrs later Leo would end up starring opposite De Niro.

There are films like this, The Princess Bride, Blazing Saddles etc that are able to do 'warm fellowship' so perfectly. There's a kindness to these films that feels bigger and more rooted than Hollywood, that makes them a pure pleasure to watch.

This movie stands up to multiple re-watches, and if you do, which I hope, you will see that the Duke is extremely smart, very observant as far as character, and is being annoying to Jack on purpose. Remember that his objective from second 1 is to get away from Jack and to safety before he's killed by Serrano. He is deliberately wearing Jack down, wearing us down, and getting to know Jack's character and weaknesses. Remember too that he is not a criminal. As he explains in Amarillo, he thought he was working for a legit company and, when he found out he wasn't, he did something about it - Jack admits he was on the Duke's side until his own objective came into the picture. Once you know this, you can watch the strategies by which the Duke operates on Jack, and how, what ends up happening is that very reluctant mutual appreciation. And you'll see the Duke's own desperation build and his character become less needling and more direct after the train confession from Jack: there's a new dynamic between them now; also they're getting closer to LA, the Duke is running out of time and strategies. He can't afford the psychological games he's been playing anymore. And, clearly, after "I hope it's a nice coffee shop, Jack", Jack's wheels are seriously beginning to turn. The writing and the casting for this movie is terrific. On first watch, my sister and brother both appreciated the helicopter shooting and told me it was one of the smartest arial killings they'd ever seen in a movie. Things call back wonderfully, too: that last bit at the airport where Marvin's back is to the gunmen, and Jack is desperately telling him to look out is payback for the many times Jack did that to Marvin before, and finished with a punch to Marvin. It's a boy who cried wolf situation. There are other little character gems, too.

De Niro at his comedic best. Fantastic

This was 1988 abd Planes, Trains and Automobiles was 1987. The chicken conversation was adlibbed by Grodin. Gridin is great. See Seems Like Old Times with him, Chevy Chase and Goldy Hawn. Marvin wasTaggart in the Beverly Hills Cop films. Mosley was in Alien. Serrano (Dennis Farina) was in Snatch. Farina is a former Chicago cop (18 years). Eddie Moscone is Joe Pantalonio from The Matrix/Memento. Tom Irwin was one of Mosley's top guys, whom I knew as Angela Chase's dad in My So-Called Life. So many of the cast have been in a lot of things. $1000 bills were printed until 1969.

Rest in peace, Grodin. You were a good man.

You probably remember the actor who played Eddie as the guy that played Cypher in The Matrix & Teddy in Memento. Grodin had a big career in comedies all throughout the 80s & 90s.

Incredible ending....it was perfect. To answer their question..yes.... helicopters do work that way. The back blade stabilizes the vehicle. Without it, it would have no control and would twist out of control just like you saw.

16:15 --- this scene gets me every time. It's masterfully understated and simple.

Clifford with Martin Short and Charles Groden is such a fun film.

Love this movie. Charles Grodin was the master of hilariously reserved sarcasm and just died last year.

Underrated gem of the 1980's with a huge huge known cast in a really well written smart action road trip buddy cop style film. Loved seeing you both start to enjoy this gem

Another De Niro comedy is " The King Of Comedy " 👑. The actor who plays the part of " The Duke " was also in the movie " KING KONG " from the late 70's .

What's funny about Charles Grodin is that when he would appear on talk shows with Johnny Carson and Letterman he would sometimes treat them the way his character treated DeNiro. A really good Grodin film is The Heartbreak Kid. He also made a heist movie I liked called 11 Harrowhouse and an entertaining ghost fantasy called Heart and Souls. But Grodin is probably best known for the Beethoven films (Beethoven is a St. Bernard) as well a string of supporting roles in other films like Heaven Can Wait and Catch 22.
