Guys if you have not already watched it please consider being the first channel to react to An Officer & a Gentleman with Richard Gere. Such a great movie, a love story, a buddy movie and a military movie all in one. Gere plays a man who joins the Navy to better themselves and get a pilot licence but he has to make through some of the toughest training there is. Also it has one of the most iconic endings.

This is a great movie about Spirituality, belief in God and how powerful his words and the Bible are!

People used the Lord's words in vain while lying to people! and pretending to spread the word of God!

God, the Son, Gods spirit and that is when the people start to mock. adding or retracting from Gods Holy book or try to make it how you see fit is a deadly sin and it will never end well for anyone misusing it caused a war and even after that war and people burned the bibles, still someone wants to misuse the bible for his own gains. this is why religion in itself is not the problem, its the people whom take advantage of it is. having faith based just around words is worthless, walking by faith is everything that is what this movie is about. it was not inspired by the islamic faith either people been memorizing the torah/bible even before the quran was made... if you would have seen the end of the movie you would see that the Bible is placed next to the quran next to other religious books etc. having faith in the Holy trinity was never based around books, so everyone can have faith even those that can,t read, are blind or otherwise challenged could come to the Faith.. so not sure what the ''lol'' at the end stands for but oh well.

By the end of this movie and hearing that prayer, I was in tears of joy and reverence. Revitalized. I had forgotten and moved past the weeks events. This movie will forever hold a special place to me, even though its just a movie. If you have an understanding of how God can work, this movie is top notch in an example of it. Not to mention He used the movie to get me out of a spiritual hole. I have watched it many times and still choke up when I hear the prayer. Thank you for taking the time to write it for us!

Jesus Christ's parables in the New Testament are warnings and lessons about rewards and punishments that will be given to the Goats and the Sheep depending which path we choose, is it the narrow or wide path? Our free will, our choices will determine " How " we are chosen . There's no get out of Jail free card on Judgement Day , We may pray for Forgiveness but Forgiveness does not equate to Salvation , Our fate is in our hands " we " choose how we will be chosen by God by the way we live our lives. Those who have chosen to follow him who he has sent Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior are on the narrow path and have Chosen Wisely . Peace

As someone that has been fairly religious my entire life, I know of scriptural references of Prophets being protected until they finished the task appointed to them. And the idea the Eli is a warrior Prophet of God tasked with delivering His word back to His people is incredibly powerful. We don't get too many religion based action films and this one was really well done.

You two identifying with the cannibals is great fun! From "that's us!" to "aww hell no".

Very Powerful statement Tony, there was a disruptive person in the theaters when we went to watch this so I couldn’t have caught what you saw looking back it you are correct.

Apocalypse means few bullets. Few bullets means no firearms training. No training means that when it comes down to it, the goons shoot like stormtroopers. Eli, on the other hand, can hear the gunshots and bullets landing, and can simply shoot at where the bullets are coming from. In this wasteland, his blindness actually gives him a significant combat advantage.

@-Bill.

Жыл бұрын

The Apocalypse would mean mostly low quality reloaded bullets using shitty propellants and misfiring primers - guns would jam every few rounds even if perfectly maintained. I think he would have more of an advantage because of the brightness of the terrain. That white sand would probably be dangerous to your eyesight similar to snow and glaciers. Lack of proper nutrition would also probably render nearly everyone night blind.

Up until that point he only smelled something rotten.

The end always makes me cry when I watch this. Such a powerful and beautiful closing.

2:54 : "I love going into these movies with absolutely no knowledge, completely blind." A fitting statement for this film, I feel.

Some of the earlier scenes are great when you know the twist, like when he opens the door to the hanging man jump scare and doesn't react. I personally think he was given a level of sight by God when needed, when he grabs things directly and fights, but he earns it each night by reading and memorizing the Bible while blind. You'll notice he was a lot more clumsy when they were camping. I love that he essentially becomes an Apostle but that all religions are represented in the end.

An absolute classic of a film

I like how when you find out Eli was blind the whole time you rewatch it and actually start to notice all the signs. Before that shootout in town, Eli uses Echolocation by clicking his tongue a few times to know how many men are in front of him. He also clicks his tongue again before he shoots the cat in the beginning of the movie. Before he fights those hijackers he steps back under the bridge so their movements will be louder and make an echo in a confined space. Since one was using a chainsaw that made it better for him.

I laughed way too hard when Steven said "I love going in blind" at the 3 min mark. Great movie and reaction. Thanks again you two.

I watched that movie on my religion classes. Yeah, our priest showed us a few movies (as on many religion classes in Poland). Unfortunately we haven't finished it at school, so I watched in my room after all lessons just to cry at the end. It was a brilliant movie: amazing pacing, great soundtrack and THAT plot twist! It's my favorite movie ever since that day!

Such a great movie and one that never gets old. He smelled the dudes because they had no soap which means no bathing, so their BO was atrocious and strong. He could hear the birds so well because the world is dead silent so any movement is loud af.

I love the message this movie has about faith. It even outweighs a fairly significant plot hole the movie has. I'll put it below so anyone who doesn't want to know doesn't have to. The actual Braille bible is about 60 inches thick and is usually printed in about 30 volumes. Smallest number of volumes I've seen is 16.

37:21 When she said he was "feverish": He's septic. Shotgun wound from earlier got infected & spread through the rest of his body. He died as well. I love the fight scenes in this movie. None of the shaky cam jump-cut stuff. Also the score was composed by Atticus Ross (before he joined Nine Inch Nails officially)

One of my favorites! I did my first essay in film school on this (and Inception).

No way!!! I'm excited for this! One of my all time favorite movies. Denzel is amazing!

YESSSS!! Thank you so much for this reaction! Been waiting on this one of Denzel from you guys!!

This is one of my favorite post apocalyptic movies. This reaction popped up on my home page and caught my eyes making me want to see your reactions. I also just want to say I love Nikkis' hair, it looks great. I always enjoy seeing women with cool hair styles like that.

Epic movie, and great reaction as usual! I’d humbly suggest 2004’s “Man on Fire”, a very different Denzel movie. You’ll love it.

They've already seen it. If you've WATCHED the video, they mentioned the cinematography was similar to Man On Fire.

I love this movie, can't tell you how many times I watched it. However one little fact always gets me. A complete bible in braille would be about 40 books and weigh about 90 pounds

I haven't even started the video yet but I just want to say I know this is going to be awesome because I love this movie! I'm so happy to see you're reacting to it. Love your videos, you guys are great.

yeah the twists are great! I also loved how it was in braille at the end and I kinda think the mom could read it but it was her way of standing up to the villain by denying she could read it. it's like he got the thing he was after, but it was denied him.

You should watch "The Road". It stars Viggo Mortenson. It also deals with a wasted, destroyed earth but never explains how it happened.

That said, it’s also a movie that utterly will rip your heart out. Then stomp on it over and over, and then try to shove it back into your chest. The Road is so good at what it does, I’m not sure I could recommend it, especially since Nikki is so dang empathetic. PS: It’s very likely the Earth got hit by a killer asteroid like the one which killed the dinosaurs.

Yeah, I'm not so sure Nikki could handle The Road. That's one movie I have only watched once, as it was just too hard to get thru. The acting and everything else was phenomenal, but It's just so heartbreaking. Much like Precious.

The music at the beginning is my favorite. So visually interesting as well

I like this Denzel marathon. All of his movies are bangers. My fav of all time is probably: “Roman J Israel, Esq”

Between this and the Equalizer films, nerds would call Denzel "Chaotic Good" ... My personal favorite of his is "Fallen". It's a supernatural crime thriller. Highly recommended. :)

Same. One of my favorite Denzel movies!

I'm so happy I've seen this so many times I can just focus on your reaction

He used the bow to give him "the ol' corndog". lol I love this movie. I remember watching it back when it first came to video. I love your reactions. You mentioned you wished they would move out from under the overpass in the first big fight with the bandits. This was maybe the first tell, looking back, that he was blind. He lured them out of the blinding sun into the dark where they had less of an advantage over him. He also wasn't lying when he told George and Martha that he didn't see their 'no trespassing' sign. His blindness is also why he didn't want anyone seeing the book. They'd realize he was blind and try to use it against him.

MORE DENZELLL!! MAN ON FIRE, FLIGHT, TRAINING DAY, MAGNIFICENT SEVEN

If there was ever a film that i feel deserved some expanding it would be this. Eli's story is finished but id love some Graphic Novel or something leading up to the War or Eli finding the book. The visual art is fantastic, everything from the bleak gray world to the the town set, the ambient theme is amazing and would fit easily into any end of the world film/show/game and I love the subtle world building that gives you just enough to have an idea of what happened but still have you wanting to know more. Im a sucker for the Post Apocalyptic genre. (The Book of Eli honestly reminds me alot of Fallout 3 visually, the Grayed out world and rubble landscape especially)

Congratulations on 300K subs guys ❤️ my favourite reactors on youtube foSho

I watch this film at least twice a year since it was released. The first time you watch it it is amazing and from the second viewing on it is a gut kick that at some point leaves you in tears.

Deja Vu is another super underrated Denzel movie 👍🏽

You guys should check out Fallen! Denzel plays a detective fighting an uncatchable serial killer. Great movie!

I second that!

i have discovered you a couple days ago. My wife works from home and has laughed out loud at your reaction to Nobody. I fell in love cause your reaction is genuine, and while my wife is working reacts to yall so its a double feature... Great reactions, keep it up. life time fan

On my first date with my now husband we saw this movie. We both loved it and I knew he was my kind of person ❤

Trying to grasp that concept he was blind the entire time is still hard watching it again

Hence God bejng the one giving him the ability.

I first watched this movie on a cruise ship. I watched bits and pieces of it cuz it played on the TVs in our cabins. It wasn’t until we got back home that I realized that it was a new movie. Bought it a couple of months later. It was actually my first Blu-ray.

What’s great about this movie is when you rewatch it, there are signs everywhere that he’s blind. He’s fighting movements the way he feels around things. It really is an awesome experience the second time around.

Great character study. Denzel is always excellent.

How ironic that Steven started off this reaction by saying, "I love going into these movies completely blind..."

Thanks for watching one my favorite movies that nobody knows about. Saw this in the theaters when it came out. We couldn't stop talking about scenes in the movie on the way home. IMPRESSIVE!
