YES!! Fun fact: When Audiences saw the original test screwing, Samuel Jackson dies, but when a member saw that, she said, "YOU CAN'T KILL SAM JACKSON!" Renny Harlin had to reshoot the scene where he survives. In one darker draft of the script, Mitch, Jackson's character, was a cop who took bribes from mob bosses and gangsters went to prison where he was raped, but fought back against the killers he put behind bars. Charlie's backstory was that she had an abusive father whom she killed, then joined the CIA to become an assassin.

Yeah, this film absolutely deserved to be a franchise. Gena and Sam had such amazing chemistry together, and the writing was on point.

The old man talking about the dog is one of the funniest lines ever.

I love this movie so much. Fun fact: Mitch was supposed to die, but test audiences demanded he live, so yay for test audiences for once.

"What colour is the sky on your planet?"when Charlie's handler is talking about all of his guns made me spit out my drink when I saw this in the cinema. GREAT dialogue, delivery, action, all the way through this movie.

Charlie was Bourne with ovaries before there was a Jason Bourne. This was written by Shane Black, the first modern rock n roll screenwriter. He came on the scene fully realized with his first script sold, a little experimental European art film called Lethal Weapon. Then The Last Boy Scout. Then this one which came right after the Geena Davis big budget bomb Cutthroat Island and weary audiences stayed away not knowing this was an instant classic . So, it bombed hard and went into not only obscurity, but oblivion as it has yet to experience any kind of reassessment or resurgence to finally have it's due. It has aged beautifully like it was shot tomorrow. Shane Black went on to not only write, but direct Kiss Kiss Bang Bang which was also an undeservingly unseen bomb at the time. However, this one has gotten a redemptive second life due to Robert Downey Jr. and his high profile in the MCU causing his back catalogue to get retro love. The critics got it though in real time. It's universally praised. It's also the best use of unreliable narrator before it got ruined by every lazy horrible Hollywood hack for their scripts to hide bad writing and plot holes than character motivation. Shane followed it up with The Nice Guys and it is massively underrated with a iconic comedic deft turn by Ryan Gosling doing true character work. He is unlike anything he's every done before or since. The actress playing his daughter is sublime. Defines check this one out if you like Black's writing. The action written in the movie and choreography is smart, inspired and breathtaking. Renny H who directed and was married to Geena Davis at the time showed what he could do with a smart script. Thank you Jennifer Lawrence for inventing the female action hero, the action genre, light, gravity, cold fusion, the Dobbler effect, uniformaterrarium. Other wise, we wouldn't have nice things or this cinematic masterpiece.

I love every minute of it and am glad to see it's finally getting more popular. Apparently, originally Mitch died at the end of the movie so I'm glad they changed that.

This and Kiss Kiss Bang Bang are both written by Shane Black. He also wrote Lethal Weapon. Almost all of his movies take place during Christmas 🎄

"I sock them in the jaw and yell pop goes the weasel" is one of my all time favorite lines

Someone, i forget who, once said, "If you want to double a movie's budget, just set it on the ocean". its so true. Both this and Cutthroat island are highly underrated films. I loved both alot.

The best description I ever heard of for this movie was from a friend of mine. He said "It's a Bruce Willis movie where Geena Davis plays Bruce Willis's role."

Definitely one of those that has stuck with me since when I first saw it in the 90s. One thing that always stood out was how different the main villain was from the standard of these kinds of movies. Just very sarcastic alongside his sadism, really entertaining. The "continue dying" was another line that's stuck in my head since originally seeing this.

Another good action thriller written by Shane Black is The Last Boyscout starring Bruce Willis. It's directed by Tony Scott, who directed True Romance.

"Chefs do that!" - Finnish director/producer Renny Harlin made great action movies in Hollywood (Die Hard 2, Cliffhanger, etc.), but this has always been my favorite. Harlin and Geena Davis were married from 1993 to 1998.

The Christmas light sequence is my favorite, especially seeing Geena Davis’ face as she kills that SOB. I can watch that over and over. Thanks for this reaction.

You guys are great. Especially at the commentary and intros. Love how well spoken TBR is and the way Sam waves hello. Btw Gena Davis was the heroic female lead in a Pirate movie, probably before Johnny Depp started making them. Guess that Jennifer Lawrence didn't watch many movies lol

... I'm convinced Samuel L. Jackson has been in every movie ever made.

I know a movie starring Geena Davis, Jeff Goldblum, Jim Carrey, and Damon Wayans. With these powerhouse actors there is no way Earth Girls Are Easy could possibly be terrible, could it?

At the end when TBR asks Samantha "What'd you think?" Her reply "I...LOVED that" made me so happy lol. This movie has some of my favorite dialogue. The way Shane Black writes just kills me. Between this and The Last Boyscout I think this is Shane at his best. Of course Lethal Weapon changed the game, and his later films, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang and The Nice Guys are amazing as well. He's like the Aaron Sorkin of buddy action/comedies.

Glad you guys came out with a new reaction. You're such genuine people that it brings a smile to my face. Which I need since I just found out my grandmother died.

Shane Black's movies are the best Christmas movies.

I haven't seen this movie in so long. Gina Davis was awesome. You should watch A League of Their Own.

"TLKGN" is one of my Top Movies of all time and when I saw that you posted this, well I was damn happy. My favorite reaction couple watching one of my favorite films, it doesn't get better than "Charlie Baltimore" and "Mitch". Sam Jackson and Geena Davis make a great duo , such great chemistry...I'm glad you liked it.

There's just as much comedy as there is action in this movie. I love it, it's a real gem. When Charlie catches the kid smoking always makes me lol. And i've never met anyone who didn't enjoy it.

For the record, you should absolutely watch "kiss kiss bang bang" as well, it's another Pseudo-Noire written (and directed unlike this movie) by Shane Black, which could explain why you're conflating them in your head. I heard an interview with Shane Black where he said he will read old pulp detective paperbacks and crime novels, and even though they are not usually good books they will have one good story element or twist in them that he wants to use for a script, so he finds who has the rights to the book and buys those rights for himself, that way he can use the elements of the story and not be accused of plagiarism, since as he's now the owner of the story he can adapt elements of the book however he sees fit, and since these stories are old and out of print it costs him next to nothing. "Kiss kiss bang bang" is his movie where you can see him do this the most and it really shines as a noire movie because of it. (Also, Val Kilmer is phenomenal in it opposite Robert Downey Jr and Michelle Monaghan as the leads)

Is it because I'm 52 years old and enjoy it when people love the movies I watched decades ago. I was there in Toronto at Bathurst and Bloor, when they shot a certain scene. Gina Davis also dis Cutthroat Island with the same director/husband that was an ABSOLUTE GEM!

A film with the same kind of idea but a completely different delivery would be "A History Of Violence"... Great reaction guys, saw this in the cinema in South Africa when it was released and also absolutely loved it!

I'd forgotten what an incredible movie this was! Davis and Jackson had incredible chemistry and you just want to more of them! Where the he'll was the sequel!!

The vodka they are drinking is "Finlandia Vodka". The director Renny Harlin is from Finland and he uses in his films always something from Finland.

I absolutely love this movie. Directed by Geena's then husband who also made Cliffhanger and Deep Blue Sea Written by Shane Black, who always delivers sharp and whitty dialogue, always a buddy team up movie, and always takes place during Christmas (except for the two he wrote with Fred Dekker, Monster Squad and The Predator) He also wrote Lethal Weapon, The Last Boy Scout, Last Action Hero. And wrote/directed Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, Iron Man 3, The Nice Guys, and The Predator. He was also the guy cracking jokes in the first Predator. As far as Craig Berkio is concerned, I think he is extremely underrated and you should check out the boxing movie he made with Russell Crowe, The Cinderella Man

I recently watched in interview with Samuel L. Jackson and he was asked to name his top 5 movie characters that he's ever played. Mitch was his no. 1. He said him and Geena Davis had such a laugh, such a good time doing this movie, he loved it- it's his favorite :)

Fantastic film,I remember randomly renting it out years ago and was surprised I'd never heard of it.

Fun fact (sorta, I guess?): Brian Cox in this film plays a man responsible for creating and monitoring the rise of a killer who develops amnesiac tendencies and has to be recalled. He also plays a man responsible for creating and monitoring the rise of a killer who develops amnesiac tendencies and has to be recalled in his blockbuster performance on the Bourne Identity. Later in his life he starred in a Marvel film playing a man responsible for creating and monitoring the rise of a killer who develops amnesiac tendencies and has to be recalled in X-Men Origins: Wolverine. What I'm trying to say is that maybe, just maybe, he might be bad at his job.

The director Renny Harlin had a nice run of action movies in the mid-90: Die Hard 2, Cliffhanger, this (which you have already seen on the channel) and a couple others you haven't seen: Deep Blue Sea and Cutthroat Island (also featuring Geena Davis). Other notable Geena Davis movies that you haven't watched for the channel: Beetlejuice, A League of their Own, Thelma & Louise; also the incredibly bizarre, Earth Girls are Easy.

I love the “I took lessons” part. 😂

All hail Geena Davis!🙌🏾 Every actress in Hollywood owes Ms. Davis a debt of gratitude. This movie singlehandedly jump-started female- lead action vehicles🤘🏽Thank You guys for another brilliant reaction!

This one definitely deserves more recognition, a great action movie with an absolute kick-*ss female protagonist, I looove Geena Davies in this move, and a great pairing with Samuel Jackson who is awesome as always with some great writing to work with.

jackson actually said in an interview that this was his favourite character that hes ever played

Great movie! Gena is underrated!! :)

Fun fact: "Sam Caine" is an anagram of "amnesiac." Also, Jackson has gone on the record that of all his movies this is the one he likes most. As much as I love this, I hope someday you see the French 1990 movie (subtitles beat dubbing) La Femme Nikita, the great-grandmama of all modern action movies with badass heroines. Thanks, and always remember -- chefs do that.

The only 2 things I always remembered from this film: the deer scene, and the fact that the one guy kept a gun hidden near his junk :D

" Samantha is Obviously superior" I'd agree 💯

Not only is this my favorite action movie ever.. it's my favorite comedy ever 🤣

The chemistry between Geena Davis and Samuel L Jackson is pure gold. The one liners are a chef's kiss, perfection.

Renny Harlin directed The Long Kiss Goodnight He was married to Geena at that time. Also directed Cliffhanger and Die Hard 2

An awesome and seriously underrated movie. The action is great, the comedic beats are plentiful and absolutely on point, and there's even a bit of family sentiment in there. It's quotable as hell, too. Brian Cox, for as briefly as he is in this movie, is excellent, too (as always). Davis and Jackson are, of course, great. Sam/Charly and Mitch Henessey are the comedic buddy movie duo/trio you didn't know you needed. Samantha Caine/Charly Baltimore is the strong female protagonist that so many movies today try to manufacture and totally fail at doing so. All the awesome stuff she does can simply be explained by the fact that she was trained to be a covert agent by elite experts in the government. It doesn't just happen because she's the greatest ever, she's not throwing 250 pound men with her bare hands or doing Cammy's Super Street Fighter 2 move so many modern female action characters do now, where they grab someone's head with their thighs and throw them! She uses weapons, even if she has to improvise them, she gets help from people around her, takes advantage of the bad guys letting their guard down... and, yeah, she gets her ass kicked in a big way, gets disarmed, and gets captured multiple times, rather than arriving at the end of the movie spotless and perfectly coifed. And she's all the better for it! She is an awesome character. It's a shame she doesn't get mentioned in the same breath as other great characters like Ellen Ripley and Sarah Connor.

IMO, one of Samuel L. Jackson's best performances. He was in synch with the writers. "La Femme Nikita" and "Point of No Return" are also worth checking out.

Grand editing job!!! Loved your reactions as well! I have long loved this movie!
