I broke my neck when I was 18 years old wrestling. I’ve been in a wheelchair ever since. I’ve seen this movie once. I’ve never had the courage to watch it again,so I decided to watch your reaction. I could not help but cry, but I also wanted to thank you. I like watching you guys very much and wanted to support you. And while watching, I realized you were also supporting me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for giving me my courage back.

And let’s not forget Hillary Swank. Damn she absolutely nailed this role

This movie had no right to be so emotional. You really connect with each character and you feel their heartbreak. One of Clint's best!

Winner of 4 Oscars including Best Picture.

It’s crazy to think that there are still people who don’t know who Hillary swank is. What a phenomenal women. From her early years doing lifetime family movies to karate kid part three and so forth. She grew in her career. Great actress.

You mean The Next Karate Kid, the fourth one.

In my opinion this is one of the greatest movies ever made. When Clint directs as well as acts then see it. You know it will be a masterpiece

I remember thinking when I watched this movie "This isnt the greatest movie Ive ever watched in my life, but its the most powerful." I dont really know how else to describe it except powerful.

This movie makes me cry, every single time. It’s so deep and it hurts so much. It’s a true testament to the human spirit and just how life is so unpredictable.

Fun fact.. The boxer she faced is one of the best kickboxers of all-time time in real life. And she is also in the Black Belt Hall of fame. Her name is lucia Ridjker. This movie is epic.😊🥊

They should watch "Trouble with the Curve." It is another good Eastwood movie!

They filmed some of that in my old neighbourhood.

The child with the cute doggie who would indeed be happy if you bought him a house, is Clint's real life daughter.

I’ve seen this movie countless times and it never fails to make me cry in the end. Clint Eastwood did an amazing job with this film. The music which was also composed by Clint Eastwood is just so sad and beautiful too. It’s just pure art

This movie is one of the best illustrations showing poverty as a contagious disease and a mindset. You guys absolutely nailed it, even before the intro. Can't wait to watch the rest of your reaction.

Mo chuisle is pronounced ma hushia. In the movie AND in Gaelic on some level it means my darling. BUT its LITERAL translation is MY PULSE ok? THIS translation is actually from from a longer phrase...A chuisle mo chroI. THAT translation is Pulse OF my heart. I was not just engaged to somebody whose family was Irish decade ago. But my first husband who had passed on~his grandmother was a first generation Irish immigrant here in the US. Sooo...while he was alive I DID hear this a lot in reference to her grandsons. I was also honored enough to have her say it to me. She started calling ME that once WE started dating in our teenage years because she welcomed me right into their family even though I wasn't an Irish girl. When it came to his mother, I was introduced to her from Day One as THIS IS Mom and Connie. Constance was her husbands name so that was his nickname. I ALWAYS called her MOM up until her dying day just a few years ago, even though me and my first husband had eventuality divorced. I was lucky enough to "keep the family" as the expression goes. I had two brothers from that family, and a few years ago one passed on. Out of MY Irish family~it is only me and my younger brother Brian left now. He was the youngest in the family as I am in my family. HE stated dating his wife AS his highschool gf~his first crush. They've been married OVER 30 years now and I've got a niece and nephew AND a grand niece from my nephew. Monica his wife ALSO got the honor from his grandmother to be called this expression. Believe me IF someone who is Irish... especially an older Irish relative says this to you? It REALLY means something culturally because for them it's not something that's said flippantly. Rest in Peace Bobby #NYGenXBIKERLady

I love this movie so much. Clint Eastwood in one of his most touching roles, Who woulda thought the western hardass, would become the grandad we all wanted.

Clint Eastwood is a master of filmmakers. His movies... his latest movies are just a masterpiece one after another. I love it so much.

The first time I watched this movie, my mom watched with me. She’s never watched it again, says it’s just too heartbreaking. It’s such a good movie and I’m so proud of Maggie for telling off her family. Good reaction. Really enjoyed it.

This and The Green Mile are movies that once was enough for me just way too damn depressing but forever etched into my mind whenever they are brought up.

@bettybaby63

I cannot watch the green mile again. My daughter was about the same age as the daughters…gutted me.

I love it when the plot of films subverts sub-genres. We're all sitting there watching this film thinking we're watching a Rocky story, expecting that Maggie's going to end up champion of the world (or at least go the distance). Then the stool incident occurs and we realise this is nothing like Rocky. It becomes a heavy drama that we may not have even considered watching had we known beforehand exactly what kind of film it would be. By then though, we're too invested to walk out.

I heard Anthony Mackie say once that Morgan Freeman bullied him on set…and he still did after the movie came out lol

Two other great movies with Hilary Swank are Boys Don’t Cry and Conviction.

I didn't see the big deal when the movie one Oscars. I figured, how good could a boxing movie be. Then I acually seen it and that twist blew my mind. Movie deserved all the Oscars for sure.

The Next Karate Kid is the first thing I ever saw Hilary in, used to be on Disney Channel quite a bit. Have loved her ever since ❤

Such a phenomenal movie. It was thought that when Frankie was getting the syringe for Maggie he also got one for himself because he did take out two. Hilary Swank won an Oscar for best actress with this film along with the movie Boys Don’t Cry. That one is a great film as well but soooo emotional. Especially since it’s based on a true story. Thank you for another great reaction.

My father in law and me used to train boxers and mma fighters. There is nothing like it that I have ever experienced. You are with people who put there sense of self on the line and you see so many highs and lows and egos dont last. As my father in law would say, the bag dont lie. In the ring and on the mat you cant hide who you are.

Lucia Rijker, ' the blue bear' was a professional Dutch boxer and kickboxer 🥊

This movie pulls at the heart strings for sure. It won 4 Oscars... Best actress, best supporting actor, best director, and best picture. Hillary trained like a legit boxer, multiple times a day, 6 days a week for this role. She put on 19 lbs of muscle (you can tell as the movie progressed, and whereas the director only wanted her to put on 10 lol). Just an all around great movie.

Great movie. A instant classic but definitely had me wondering who was cutting onions

Get ready MY boys! AS a former boxer in the underground circuit on Long Island and NYC as a teenager for a short time as a super welterweight...this IS an absolutely amazing and perfectly accurate. For the record movie, her opponent IS a real boxer AND a multiple international belt champion Lucia Rijker aka The Blue Bear AND she is who trained her for the role. The Blue Bear ALSO trained Randy Rouser to box, the Blue Bear is Dutch and Gen X like me, she's both 1967. Also she sustained injuries in this production AND like a real fighter with our broken bones~Hillary Swank pushed through them. The Blue Bear is ranked number 4, her record is 17-0 in boxing and 34-0 in kickboxing. The 2024 Silver Gloves Champ Female Intermediate (13-14 yrs) belongs to a 13 year old girl from MY tribe. She won under what's known as a RSC, Referee Stops Contest. She just won her first 3 boxing matches in Toledo Ohio at the 2023 Women’s National Boxing Tournament where she is now the USA Boxing number one ranked boxer in the Heavyweight division in the United States. KEEP YOUR EYES OUT FOR HER~OUR GIRLS NAME IS BETH SMOKE AND YEAH SHE BRINGS IT! IF this is what she's bringing at age 13, trust me I DO believe she'll be at The Blue Bears level by her 20's cuz Beth started fighting when she was around 8 yrs old. I am from the Bear Clan and she is from the Wolf Clan. 🪶✊🗽💜🦅 #Taino #Mohawk #NYGenXBIKERLady

Clint Eastwood is the GOAT!

The scene where Clint breaks down in front of the Priest just breaks me.

Another really good Eastwood film that has flown under the radar is “Richard Jewel” (2019). Great acting and a true story. Highly recommend watching

Watching reactors get smacked in the face by the second half then this movie makes, is always interesting to me. Great reaction.

The pug!!! So cute!

This movie was so emotional OMG 😭😭 love the video Octokrool stay motivated dream big 1 mill on the way

Perfection...from top to bottom. Another great movie from Mr. Eastwood.

I saw this movie when it came out. I was only nine, and didn't always understand what was going on or why characters did this or that, but I still loved it. Now, twenty years later, I love it even more. Clint Eastwood's character went from wanting nothing to do with Maggie to caring for her to selfishly keeping her alive even though she wants her suffering to end to finally, finally letting her go. Maggie's arc is heartbreaking, too. The scene where she realizes that her toxic family only sees her as a cash cow broke me even when I was a kid. Truly a wonderful film, and I'm glad you guys reviewed it.

Fantastic movie. Glad you guys liked it. And thanks for your great reaction.

Clint Eastwood and Morgan Freeman make this feature to inspire despite the harsh realities we deal with. 🥺👏

Loved this movie. Saw it in the theater, and at the end, nobody spoke or got up to leave. A rare, wonderful communal experience that doesn't happen anymore. Since cellphones ruined everything,, I watch movies at home where I can get more invested without distractions.

The trifecta, of Eastwood, actor, and director...Unforgiven, Million Dollar Baby, and Gran Torino. ( And yes a Perfect World, with kevin Costner playing a villian, and Outlaw Josey Wales..honorable mention). But the above three..are decades of doing it all. And perfect films!

No puedo volver a ver Esta película. Ya la he visto dos veces en mi vida y me ha destrozado el alma. Es desgarradora 😢😢😢

Boys Don't Cry is probably Hilary Swank's best performance. Based on a true story that happened down the road from me when i lived in Nebraska.

This movie is legit in my top three favorite movies of all time and that's saying a lot... The story in the chemistry that the cast has is amazing

I agree!

Hilary Swank was in a movie with Tommy Lee Jones called The Homesman (2014). It's a western historical drama set in the 1850s Midwest and directed by Tommy Lee Jones, about three women who have been driven mad by pioneer life are to be transported across the country by covered wagon by the pious, independent-minded Mary Bee Cuddy (Hilary Swank), who in turn employs low-life drifter George Briggs (Tommy Lee Jones) to assist her. It's a good one.

One of my favorite movies ever. Someone pointed out that Morgan Freeman takes a bunch of time in his letter to Frankie’s daughter to tell a story about him beating up a guy to defend Danger 😂

True Romance, Reservoir Dogs, Best of the Best, and Blood of Heroes will end your summer in a bang.

Anthony Mackie doesn’t play the asshole in We Are Marshall. By the way that’s a must see if you haven’t

Excellent but heartbreaking movie. Much deserved Oscars for Best Picture, Best Director, Lead Actress, Supporting Actor. This was Hillary Swank 2nd Academy Awards win, she got her first for the lead in Boys Don't Cry (1999), based on a true story.

Excellent

Great story. But absolutely heartbreaking.

I remember watching this movie in my high school literature class!

Geezus! Papa Doc STILL taking punches to the face.

If you wanna continue in the boxing theme, I suggest Diggstown with James woods and Louis Gossett jr. very good film.

If you listen to Morgan Freeman closely he always talks about Maggie in the past tense. I think that was his clever way of trying to warn you for what is about to come.

Better see eyes filled up at the end. What a story

Clint recently seems to like playing grouchy. Narrow-minded, old men who through circumstances have their outlook expanded. He does a great job. You feel these characters are real and that the changes they go through are genuine.

Love this movie!!

How are you doing my favorite brothers! Great reaction choice. This movie was phenomenal!👍🏽

Great reaction. I cry every time.

She was so talented & sweet! Her family was so sickening to me… such an ungrateful mother. When she said “Ain’t your fault the way I heard it, but.. YOU LOST. Now won’t lose rest on what you got left..” while putting the pen in her mouth… you didn’t even BOTHER watching your child at an important moment in her life & you expect her to sign over all of her assets to you. Smdh! The nerve

My darling my blood 😢😢❤

Extremely underrated movie 🍿

The little girl in the truck with the dog at the gas station, she is Clint Eastwood's REAL daughter!

Glad a few people are finally getting around to this masterpiece. Far better than Gran Torino. And that is a great movie. But people incorrectly suggest the wrong movies in the beginning.

Stallone was a beast on the speed bag

Chris, either you did something with your beard; or you've been working out, man. Either way, you're looking good! This movie is so good and heartbreaking. I'm looking forward to your reaction!

Brilliant movie 🎬!

This film is pure depression fuel. Great reaction bros! 👍🏿

no piece of pie

A film that is so depressing how can anyone watch it more than once? Once was certainly enough for me.

Have you guys ever done the dollars trilogy? Some of Clint Eastwoods earlier movies and what made him a household name and big star. Please react to it.

Guys you really need to react to Heartbreak Ridge....Clint Eastwood movie that you will have a ton of fun watching!

They should do The Passion of the Christ next.

when I first watched this I was in denial the whole movie

🎉😮

This movie brought up the discussion of euthanasia practices and the legality or ethical reasoning behind it. Movie actually caused a lot of backlash in the media.

you ,guys, should react next to hardcore henry...a movie that took like 2 mil to make,that`s like 2% of what costs a modern hollywood movie to make

Damn, all I have to see is 20% of this movie and I'm still a blubbering idiot at the end. Mystic River is another great movie directed by Clint Eastwood. It's based on a novel by Dennis Lehane, who also wrote Shutter Island, Gone Baby Gone (directed by Ben Affleck, also with Morgan Freeman, Michelle Monaghan, and Ed Harris), and The Drop (with Tom Hardy and James Gandolfini), all great movies, Gone Baby Gone in particular. Mystic River also has an all star cast: Sean Penn, Kevin Bacon, Tim Robbins, Laura Linney, Marcia Gay Harden, and more.

Loved your reaction as always. You should check out society of the snow. It's a great movie and I would love to hear what you have to say about that one. If you do watch it I recommend the original language with subtitles, the acting was amazing

You guys have to watch. Edge of tomorrow with tom cruise

This is a fantastic film. Good pick boys

Helluva film with a stacked cast - if you're not crying in the last act you must have no soul and I don't want to know you.

Also when is the smiling friends season 2 marathon reaction coming?

I always wonder with movies like this, how much did Hilary Swank learn. I’m no expert fighter but she looks like she could look after herself. Interesting how much the movie training would transition to real life.

I love your pup ! I have a fawn pug & a black pug & they are the reason my life is so bitchin' ❣

If you liked this, you really need to watch The Journeyman….its a boxing film that flys way under the radar

29:10 this always hard to watch... One single punch with such big consequence

I love MUGGWHI 😂🎉🎉!

Every which way but loose baby!

I know yall don’t really like sequels but the Dirty Harry sequels are definitely worth it

Can you guys watch the new Beverly hills cop movie its so awesome

Hope you guys react to super troopers 2 soon.

the equalizer 3 next

Another amazing boxing movie you boys should give a go eventually: Southpaw. Jake Gyllenhaal, 50 cent, and forest Whitaker 🙏
