OMG GUYSS u have to watch the movie Goal , u guys will be weeping so hard, its so good.
As a lesbian, a pisces, and an Indian, I love this movie lol
dude same except i’m guyanese, a lesbian, and a leo 😂
Ohh so you're not Lebanese 😂😂
@@Serenity113”She’s not Lebanese.” was such a funny part they didn’t show in this review watch.
@@Serenity113 As a Lebanese: She doesn't even go here!
Becks wasn’t actually in the film due to scheduling conflicts, but he was apparently very supportive of the movie and agreed to his likeness being used throughout. this is one of my favorite movies! I’m so glad you guys enjoyed it! 😃
He appears in the end in the airport.
@@couch.patati-patatathose are doubles, not the real Posh and Becks. (They for sure would have shown close ups if they had gotten the real ones)
@@maggie19104 thanks, was gonna reply the same thing haha 😄
This is incorrect. I owned the dvd growing up. If you watch the credits there's a video of them filming their scene in the airport. Also, in the dvd commentary the director discusses the shoot with them. The point was to show the Beckham was no longer the main focus of Jess' life.
Beckham showed up at the movie premiere to show his support
If anyone's interested... The scar on her leg and the story to go with it are true. It actually happened to the actress, and they decided to write it into the movie.
Oh wow that's actually very sweet of them I'm glad they showed it for her beauty and confidence instead of trying to hide it with makeup 😭❤️
Solicitor is a lawyer in the UK
There are two kinda of lawyer in the UK. Solicitor and barrister. The latter is the one allowed to represent people in court. The other is everything else. I think. It's my understanding that barrister is more elite.
Posh and Becks DID film their scene in the movie. People no longer watch credits because of streaming but the credits for this has the entire cast and crew singing the "Feeling Hot Hot Hot" song. There's a clip of Beckham and Posh in the airport singing as they filmed their scene in the airport. The director also discusses filming with them in the dvd commentary.
Best part of the DVD extras is director Gurinder Chadha, her mom and aunt making Aloo Gobi, I'm not a fan of cauliflower but I make it at least once a month after watching the short.
It was a rite of passage to play Bend it like Beckham on the tiny roll in tv on the last day of school each year - basically our whole class could recite it word for word by the end
I grew up in South Africa, and we also watched this movie in school - our teacher thought it was a great message on perseverance, following your dreams, friendship, multiculturalism, the challenges of cultural expectations, and changing perceptions. Gems like this movie are truly universal! ❤
Bryce had me CACKLING the whole of this reaction 😂😂😂
Joe running towards jess like: “Jesss”! 🏃💁♂️💅💅✨😌 Lol
It's not the easiest catch in the movie, but the younger man who stayed at Jess' house, during her sister's wedding, was a potential arranged marriage for Jess. He was the hugest slag throughout the movie, but he got visibly concerned when Tony announced he and Jess were getting married.
I died at “Is Joe gay?” and “This is inverse ‘Challengers’.” 😂
The name of Joe's actor is Jonathan Rhys Meyers and he played Henry VIII in the TV show Tudors.
*Vikings* and *The Tudors* - Created by *Michael Hirst* from *Bradford.*
*Keira Knightley* stars in *Official Secrets* (2019) filmed in *Bradford.*
*Parminder Nagra* stars in *King Girl* (1996) filmed in *Bradford.*
Many many more of the cast have also filmed in *Bradford,* however *Jonathan Rhys Meyers* isn't one of those people.
@@danielgardecki1046 are you arguing he wasn't in Tudors or wasn't in Bend it like Beckham. Or just stating random facts?
@@randimarsh3596 I'm stating random facts connecting The Tudors, Vikings, and most of the Bend it Like Beckham cast to Bradford the world's first UNESCO City of Film.
@@randimarsh3596 The same goes for stuff like Game of Thrones, Peaky Blinders, Downton Abbey, Happy Valley, Emmerdale, Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit, Harry Potter etc...
They're full of people who have filmed stuff in Bradford.
In the last 30 days, multiple more people from Harry Potter and Game of Thrones, a lot of which are Oscar and BAFTA winners, have been filming at least 4 more productions in Braford.
@@danielgardecki1046 so are you saying none of the scenes filmed in Bradford for Tudors had Henry the VIII in them? The main character? Cause that was Jonathan Rhys Meyers as well as the coach in Bend it like Beckham is also Jonathan Rhys Meyers. I'm confused why you commented this on my comment?
Strop comes from the word stroppy meaning grumpy.
Solicitor is the same as a lawyer.
"Barristers and solicitors".
The moms in this movie are absolutely iconic 🔥
The 2 moms are probably my favorite characters
And the dads are absolute sweethearts
@@mountainbikemayhem1833 The two Indian moms (Jess' and Titu's) were fine as hell. Jess' mom had those pretty ass dimples.
Im from Leicester which has a really big asian population and half the guys I work with (I work in engineering) are sikh and I SWEAR TO GOD their weddings are insanely amazing. Same for Hindus too to be fair and Muslims. They are elaborate as heck. Absolutely love a work wedding invite hahaa
Watched this so many times growing up! So nostalgic!
You really do have to watch Bride and and Prejudice, it's Bollywood Pride & Prejudice with Elijah from V. Diaries as the Wickham character. Lol
It's NOT bollywood..... it's a Hollywood movie with indian focus..... I would rather they watch actual bollywood movies and not these cringe american/british attempts
Nah the movie wasn’t that good tbh
NO NO, as an Indian, that movie is cring. Don't ask them to watch. 😢😢 Watch an actual Indian movie..
Seconded!!! love that film
I love Bride and prejudice
40:46 You left out the reaction to her team mates helping her with the sari and then a complete dead pan reaction to Jules' mum when she saw the girls hugging outside the locker room.
Our guy's okay, right? Sending my well wishes on to our 3rd guy...feel better soon man.
Jess was Dr Neela in ER, and her sister was Kalinda in The Good Wife
Ohhh Kalinda!!! That's right, gorgeous!
Omg! Never connected that the sister was in the good wife!
y’all definitely need to watch Stick It, I think y’all would love it!
Yes omg!!
*Whip It!* is a really fun movie with similar themes to this but with roller derby. Starring Elliot Page, Drew Barrymore, Kristen Wiig, and a lot of other people you'll recognize.
Whip It is so excellent!
Yes!!! Such an underrated movie!!
oh my god yessssss
That’s a shout! Good time watch for sure 😊
46:25 Bryce is killing me this episode 🤣 that’s how they get ya! It’s always the effeminate Irish ones that lull you into a false sense of security 😂 it’s a trap.
Growing up in an Indian town this movie was my favorite and everyone would put it on for birthday parties lmaooo
Jonathan Rhys Meyers was in The Tudors, Vikings and August Rush
*Vikings* and *The Tudors* - Created by *Michael Hirst* from *Bradford.*
*Keira Knightley* stars in *Official Secrets* (2019) filmed in *Bradford.*
*Parminder Nagra* stars in *King Girl* (1996) filmed in *Bradford.*
Many many more of the cast have also filmed in *Bradford,* however *Jonathan Rhys Meyers* isn't one of those people.
He was also in Mortal Instruments: City of Bones, Vanity Fair, 6 Souls, and From Paris With Love
And Match point! I like that one
I love his singing in August Rush! ❤
I love Rob’s little devil horns throughout this reaction 😈
Yes, been waiting for this one! Such an underrated movie. 🧡
this movie was my childhood 😭
It was Bryce's imitation of Joe's run for me😭
In England lawyers can also be called solicitors.
It's lovely to see a very young Jonathan Rhys Myers in this. He later played Henry the 8th in the "Tudors". ( n he's Irish).
Rob's british accent 10/10 😂
YOOOO I am so glad y’all watched this 😭 this movie is a huge childhood favourite of mine, and for YEARS I have been checking CZcams for reaction/commentary videos to it and coming up with nothing. I’m so pleased that the first reaction I saw was from a channel I like, glad y’all enjoyed it too. Also when I was a kid I printed out the full script of Bend it Like Beckham and filmed a reenactment of the movie using my Bratz dolls LMAO
They did kiss after the macth but like in a celebration way 😂
I was so obsessed with this movie when I was younger. So I was really happy that we watched it multiple times in school in english class 😄
For us Americans, Hounslow is a suburb of London. It’s still accessible on the Tube. Heathrow is close by. It’s one of the towns with a significant population of people of Indian descent. This would be a local team. Pretty solid. Not yet pros.
Losing it at 37:05 Bryce’s chomping 😂
Rob doing a British accent 90% of the reaction was my favorite. 😂😂
Jonathan Rhys Meyers 🤩😍 he was one of my first crushes hehe
One of my favorite movies growing up as a young lesbian lmao. I just showed it to my 12-year old niece last week and she loved it too! She’s been yelling “GET YOUR LESBIAN FEET OUT OF MY SHOES” at me for days now lol.
Loved this reaction! Just a couple of points for context: 1) a “solicitor” in the UK is a lawyer (trial lawyers are called “barristers” though). A lot of British Indian families place high value on education & academic achievement, and encourage their kids from a young age to pursue careers in law, medicine, dentistry & engineering. So basically Jess’s parents wanted her to become a lawyer. 2) When that girl called Jess a “p*ki”, that is a deeply offensive racial slur, up there with the n-word. Joe could relate to her on some level as during the “troubles” conflict between the Uk (mainly England) and Ireland, Irish people were heavily discriminated against & called slurs as well. 3) the reason they had to go with the same date as the final for the wedding was because Indian weddings are HUUUGE and there are very few venues available that are big enough, so wedding dates are often determined by venue availability. I went to an Indian colleague’s “small” wedding which had 600 guests. It’s common to have over 1000, and festivities last for days. Indian weddings are so much fun, but they really are an endurance sport 😂. 4) more of an observation - since this movie was made, it’s been amazing to see how much the women’s game has grown in the UK. The women’s league is now super popular, they are selling out large stadiums, the players are getting good money (not as good as the boys, but a LOT better) and amazing endorsement deals. The women’s premier league matches are covered in the news & sports pages alongside the men’s. It’s been so great to see the growth!
Yes! I love that you guys are getting to this movie, I wish more reactors added this movie to their lineup
Thank you so much for taking the time to react to this, barely any on YT which should be a crime. I grew up on this, watched it so many times. Showed it to my friends. Super underrated.
I love this movie one of my faves as a teen. It's so funny, when youre not raised in that culture you just dont get it. Those over the top reactions are actually so true to real life, like when Jess and Jules were just laughing and got mistaken for kissing, something that small can call off your siblings marriage, playing football as a girl can get you shunned as a family from the community, at that time and sometimes even today. Its so true to what so many of us went through
So many big budget British movies (harry P, James bond etc) are catering for an intl audience including americans its genuinely quite strange watching americans watch an actual british movie that is so VERY british.
None of the original Harry Potter movies had any Americans in them, the sequels Fantastic Beasts are a completely different story though. I do agree it is refreshing seeing American watch these kinds of British movies!
This is one of my comfort movies. I absolutely love this movie. ❤ so glad I got to see your reaction to it!
Keira Knightly was good in *King Arthur* (2004), with Clive Owen, Mads Mikkelsen, Hugh Dancy, Ray Winstone, Ioan Gruffudd, Ray Stevenson (playing my favorite character in the movie), Stellan Skarsgård, Joel Edgerton, Til Schweiger...holy sh*tski, I forgot what a stellar cast that movie has. And also, an excellent director, Antoine Fuqua (Training Day, The Equalizer, The Replacement Killers). Highly recommend.
second this! love this movie!
The way I just screamed in my room seeing that you guys reacted to this!! I haven’t seen this in years upon years. I am so glad you guys have such a diverse channel!!♥️♥️
Thanks to Bryce and Rob! ⚽ Wild to fathom it's been nearly 22 years since I saw in in the cinema. Cheers to writer/director Gurinder Chadha.
Apparently Gurinder Chadha (the female Indian director who wrote and directed this film) has said later that she really wanted Jules and Jess to be gay, and to have a romance. However, much like Jess in the movie says to Joe 'allowing me to play football is a massive stretch for my family, I can't bring you home as well', she felt like this story was pushing a lot of boundaries with the Indian community at the time, and didn't want people to reject the central premise of the movie (I.e. the football plotline) because they were angered or upset by homosexuality.
Personally I like it better this way anyway. I like the fact that they have tom boyish girls playing a “manly sport” and are really close friendship and they aren’t lesbians. I feel like it would have been incredibly cliché.
@@austinlarrimore6542 Yeah, exactly. Plus wouldn't that defeat the whole storyline of hobbies not equalling sexuality? They straight up say "just bc i wear trainers and love football doesn't mean I'm a lesbian"
I never really like movies to do with sports in general but this one is an exception for me I like how they used a different culture like south Asian family and what there expectations were for her to be in life and how the family grew to accept and let her do what she loved great reaction
Rob just can't resist constantly mimicking the British accent I love it ☠
Jess' sister is the mom in the Hulu show Under The Bridge, made me cry so bad
I am DISTRAUGHT zuff didn’t watch 😭
He would have loved the mosquito bite juicy juicy mangoes line for sure
@@maggie19104 And all the hot guys.
im swedish and we read this book for my english class and watched this movie lol so fun that you guys are reacting to it
This was a book??
@@grasshopperye3593 if i remember corecctly i think they wrote the book after the movie lol
Also fun fact, “Nessun Dorma,” the very famous aria from Turandot that gets used for Jess’ final goal, ends on 3 emphatic “Vinceros!” It’s Italian for “I will win!”
I will never forget seeing this in my college movie theater for the first time. The concerned GASPS and “get ups!” that erupted went Jess got hit were hysterical. We were so into it.
Then at the end, when Jess initially refuses Joe and it goes to black, we yelled “that’s it!?!… *scene change* “OOH.”
It’s really interesting to see how acceptance of women’s sports has changed.
Rob, Joe was played by Jonathan Rhys Meyers.
He stared in TV series "Vikings", "Dracula ", "The Tudors", & the miniseries "Elvis" and films "Michael Collins", "Velvet Goldmine", "Titus", "Alexander", "Match Point", & "Mission: Impossible III".
Wasn’t he in august rush too?
@@austinlarrimore6542 He sure was.
Joe had no right to be so damn fine
Chile, even these guys had to give it up for the first time he showed up at Jess' house and Pinky opened the door and he had that smolder...a damn smoke show!🔥🔥🔥🔥
such a huge movie in british culture, still referenced to this day!! iconic
17:46 UM HELLO??? DID NO ONE CATCH THAT? BRYCE?? WHAT DID YOU MEAN BY THAT?? sir i feel like that was more than just for the movie reaction 😭😭😭 all jokes ofc
Juliet Stevenson, the actress who played Jules' mom, has played a lot of super serious roles so it's fun to see her playing a silly character like this
This and Nicholas Nicklby are the roles I know her best in. She played both of them so well.
Mrs. Elton in Emma (the Gwyneth Paltrow one) is where I know her best from but it's Truly, Madly, Deeply where she really impresses. Watch that if you want your heart torn out and ripped apart. 😭😭
@@terned8893 I've seen Truly Madly Deeply - amazing film (and as someone who was recently widowed, I've been thinking about it a lot lately) ❤
Bend it Like Beckham was nominated at the Golden Globes - Best Picture Musical/Comedy.
Should have won.
A Solicitor is a name for a lawyer.
I accidently stumbled on this movie, flipping through the channels years ago! I love it so much I've lost track how many times I've watched it❤😊
I love this movie! I love Keira and Parminder and the soundtrack is so good!
Yessss boys lovin the nostalgia from these reactions 🤙🏻
I hadn't watched this in years, until last night (when I watched in preparation for this reaction haha). Forgot how much of a good movie it was! And I was vibing so hard to the music 🎶
I never see anyone on YT watching this movie - thanks so much for the reaction! It's one of my favourites, it's so campy and hilarious. A real time capsule of life in England! Also those casually racist things Jules' mum said are defintely things people said in real life T-T
My sisters and I still quote the mosquito bites to mangos line to each other haha
In Denmark we also watched this movie in English class in school. Don't quite remember when. Used to have it on DVD.
Rob, I especially like your reactions, because my reactions are also like yours! Your reaction to this was good!
instant like for reacting to this sporty girl movie gem. next do Blue Crush, the sporty girl genre died too early :(
Great reaction guys, had me absolutely dying laughing 🥰
could you imagine if they watched to wong foo..that'll be amazing to see these guys react to it haha
OMG, not enough people react to this movie.
BROOO this movie is my childhood, I love it sm, esp as an Indian born in England 🙏🏽🙏🏽 I’ve been waiting for someone to react to this 😞‼️‼️
The movie was so relatable. My mom was also soooo against girls playing sports, I nearly quit after three years of being nagged about playing a ''boy's sport''. I ended up actually quitting after 7 years but I'm picking it up again. Even though we never had good changing rooms and they always gave us the worst fields and prioritized the mens teams, playing football was the best thing ever tbh.
32:43 Haha he’s got the moves
I love this movie. My dad and I would watch it together.
34:58 In Britain a solicitor is a kind of lawyer. If you guys do reactions to clips of British shows, Would I Lie To You (or WILTY) often has a comedian Bob Mortimer who was once a solicitor, meaning lawyer or legal advisor.
Love y'all's reactions! This is my dad's favorite sports movie
It's quite sad that this movie really pushed Keira Knightly's career forward, but really didn't do the same for the actress that played Jess (Parminder Nigra)
Omg I fucking love this movie… this film got me into football(soccer) and of course my crush for Jonathan Rhys Meyers 😂😂😂
No football for me but definitely a crush on Jonathan hahaha
A solicitor is a lawyer and Indian weddings can be really long 😂
Ohja football teen series was very popular in europe in germany we had a book seties of 7 books made into 7 movies later 😅
I saw this at the movies when it came out 😊❤
Great reactions! A gem of a movie 🍿⚽
guys, thank you for this.
this film is a core memory for me. i was a tomboy and was a massive football fan of man utd. and becks in the 90s. my heart broke when he got married to posh spice 😅 i laughed along when you laughed at jrm (i felt the same then). i feel like he developed as an actor and defo is a bit underrated. he was great in 'the tudors'. he was also in 'match point' with scarlett johansson.
My family went to see this in the theater, good times.
The guy who played Joe was King Henry in The Tudors and also played Dracula.
I loved this movie when I was little Def the reason I did soccer growing up 😂❤
Rob repping that Man U shirt
Every time i start loving rob more, i am always reminded that hes a manc and as someone who has bled Liverpool red for 3 decades of my life ... its one of those... he's a 10 but he supports utd 😁😁
You guys should react to St Trinians!! One of my fave british movies! Packed cast too!!
We loved this movie in my family- my sister and I were brought up playing soccer, and we watched our VHS of this so many times. Getting to see Mia Hamm play live once was a huge deal to us. I'm honestly a little sad they didn't go for Jess/Jules over Joe, but it's still fantastic.
Parminder Negra (Jess) is best known to American audiences for "ER", and the actress who played her sister Archie Punjabi is well known for "The Good Wife", while Jonathan Rhys Myers (Joe) tends to be known for "The Tudors" (as Henry VIII), but he's also memorable for being in "August Rush" with Keri Russell and a young Freddie Highmore- also Robin Williams.
Since you mentioned wanting a sequel, I'll share my crack wish that's-never-going-to-happen-but-I'll-repeat-it-in-the-hopes-of-manifesting-it: "Ted Lasso" doing a spin-off about Richmond's women's team and Parminder reprising Jess, as their coach.
Since you mentioned seeing Keira in "P&P" (2005) at the start, I'll also echo someone in your comments who recommended "Bride & Prejudice" (2004)- both it and "BilB" were written and directed by Gurinder Chadha, and it's a Bollywood-inspired take (so there are multiple songs) on "P&P". It's not perfect, but it's really enjoyable. (I think the other recommender also mentioned Daniel Gillies, aka Elijah from "TVD", is in it)
I watched this movie so many times as a child 😂 i didn't even know beckham was a real soccer player i thought he was just made up for the movie 💀
This is a movie that is literally never shown on tv and I don't get why - it was huge back then when was released in cinemas literally made an unknown Keira Knightly into a star overnight and it certainly should have of young woman who played Jess the other lead but criminally Hollywood didn't utilise her skills and she only in the end got minimal exposure in comparison in America. But yeah this was and still is a classic, just big shame you never see it on tv.
i remember watching it in school years ago😂 i think we even had an exam about this movie😅 totally forgot about it until now
Wait what ?! Haha dang
A solicitor is basically a lawyer 😂
Great movie and reaction. The actor who played Joe starred as Henry VIII in the series The Tudors. 😎 I hope you took the time to watch the end credits where the cast and crew is singing and dancing to Hot Hot Hot!🕺🏼😉
I love this movie! It’s so cute and charming
I love Bend it like Beckham. It's a fun movie
One of my favorite movies!
