My Number 1 movie of All time..they just don’t make movies like this anymore 👊🏽 Road to 100k!!
It tears me up to this day, thats why I'm watching yas both happy tears 😀😀😀😢, i also used to work with one the actors from Romper Stomper.. strange thing was we had the same first name and were born on june 21st dig that cool shit❤ u both
Watched it like 2000 times, since i was a little kid.... Best movie ever! The story, symbolism, music and general themes... A mindblowing production and piece of art.
Well, the Westy movie industry doesn't make movies like this. Fortunately, there is the Eastern part of the globe where they still make fantastic movies about heroes.
Lmfao, I was just going to comment how this is my all time number 1 film, YES!!
🤘
Hannah: disgusted by the fact that murder is entertainment
Ash: "I would actually have tickets!"
I would buy her tickets too 😂
@@justtrustash I would buy tickets there too just to see Hannah's reaction.
@@thejamppa just gagging and screaming throughout the whole thing
@@justtrustash fun fact it was free for the poor regardless of Roman citizenship, even slaves could witness the games given the right time .
Only the Rich had to pay for their Seats which helped fund the whole operation alongside the State, the Crowd was also fed the remains of defeated Animals, and Gladiator Blood was seen as a source of sexual energy
in reality death rarely occured in the colliseum, glatiator battles were actually heavily scripted and more akin to modern day professional wrestling, only 10% of people died and that was from infections after the battle.
i love how Ash is mouthing the words to all the iconic lines which im sure most of us who love this movie also do when it happens
Mate I watched this in Iran when I was 10 and I remember I learnt it when I couldn’t speak English 😂
@@justtrustash I was waiting for my favourite line from Olly reed..."You sold me queer giraffes" :-))
@@justtrustash Gotta give Russel Crowe props for the script - apparently the first draft was a trainwreck and he helped rewrite it while they were in the middle of filming
@@justtrustash you didnt speak English at 10 and get you have a British accent? That’s crazy because I thought once you’re 10 your accent is pretty much set in stone
@@philproffitt8363 C'mon, don't you know male giraffes can get pregnant too?
Omg i almost died, “they seem like a friendly bunch”
-People holding Maximus in a cage 😂😂
Hannah is right: it's about love, and loyalty, and also about strength and honor/morality, who has it and who doesn't, and even if you die for it, it's worth dying for. One of my favorite all time movies.
everything that is important to a real man
But most important, it's about the Herpies we share around the cage.
-Hannah, AD 180
well-said
Beautifully worded.
The writers felt that the early script lost energy when it became a simple revenge story. So they introduced a theme of the afterlife that the hero wants to get to. This way, Maximus' main motivation for the whole film is _a soldier trying to get home to his family_ . It's also how the hero can die at the end & yet you still feel like it's a victory.
I love that one guy burying the little toys in the sand at the end and saying "not yet . . . not yet." It's such a moment of enduring strength and love of life.
17:16 That actor actually died in a bar from a heart attack before they finished the movie. So instead of getting another actor and reshooting his parts, they decided to rewrite some parts to depict him dying in the movie. They did it partially because he was a well respected actor.
He was originally supposed to be the guy at the final scene of the movie who buries those little statues in the coliseum.
I randomly went to see this movie in the theatres in 2000. Best theatrical experience of my life. Nothing could have prepared me for this movie, I expected a stereotypical action film, and got one of the most epic movies of all time.
Same. I went before hearing any buzz. I figured it would kill my afternoon. Ridley Scott is always good.
I was transfixed.
Still on of my favorite movies.
Maximus!
This movie and 300 I both saw in theaters and didn't have a ton of expectations but was blown away.
"Brothers, what we do in life... echoes in eternity."
Gladiator is an epic Ancient Roman historic drama masterpiece. It works on so many levels: the acting is phenomenal, the story is compelling, the backdrop of the film is beautiful. It's destined to be a classic, which is a film that can be watched and appreciated with each subseqent viewing.
Also, Hans Zimmer does an excellent job in composing beautiful music that captures the tone of the film. The song, "Now We Are Free" by Lisa Gerrard that plays during the film credits is hauntingly beautiful and hypnotic. It's simply one of the greatest film scores ever made and shall be timeless for the rest of time.
This isn't a SPR level realistic war film, but it doesn't need to be! It gives all the right nods to history while being a Hollywood epic. The emperor character that Joaquin plays actually did take part in the games, staging easy kills for himself. I love this movie
@@b1gpapan3cr04
Yeah, it's not historical accurate (Commodus was on the battlefield, he was a bunch of years co-emperor with his father, he ruled 16 years, he didn't die in the arena (but he was a total asshole, that's accurate :)) ), but who cares, it's a movie, not a documentary. It is kinda a new version of The Fall of the Roman Empire (1964). But i think it's the best version that could have been made...simply great.
Main reason I love you guys as reactors; Ash’s hype and excitement takes me right back to when I watched these movies as a lad, and Hannah for her empathy and compassion for all the emotional beats that hit super hard even now as an adult
I feel you mate, this movie gives me chills and makes me feel so good and appreciate proper movies
@HappyLittleAccidentsWithAvery Strange that Cash would want Joaquin to play him after seeing him in this role. Johnny Cash isn't an asshole XD Joaquin is indeed a fine actor though!
no ash is hype and excitement is way too over the top.
"AM I NOT MERCIFUL!!!" is the top 3 quotes from this movie for me. Also, ad lib by Phoenix and the reaction by Connie Nielson was genuine
I always loved after learning about the “Good Emperors” that they all ended up being adopted heirs, over blood heirs. People chosen to be heirs bc of apparent traits and suitabIlity; Hadrian, Augustus, Aurelius and even Aurelius’ father all adopted to be heir
I always love how ash describes the horrible stuff to Hannah as if she doesn't see what's happening 😂
Hahaha so true
Yes, it's really strange.
Sometimes she does look away I think that’s why he does it
You guys are always the best reactors, had me in stitches as usual. Ash's face for the first 20 minutes. Hannah crying for the pee guy. The argument where Hannah said she's not going to the gladiator games with you so stop asking. You two have such good chemistry
Love you mate, thank you Marc ❤️
@@justtrustash Thanks mate. There's a lot of reactor couples, cute chick and a guy. You are the only guy online who is genuinely funny. I watch just as much for you as for Hannah!
then later she’s saying “KILL HIM!” 😂😂
can i just say, i fucking love you guys! when Hannah said "this feeds me well sire" i actually snorted my beer out of my nose, Hannah is absolutely hilarious (you both are), and the chemistry between you two is amazing.
This is my fav movie and since it came out, every time i watch it i cry, but this was the first time i laughed so much - what an amazing experience guys!
Oi mate you legend! Thank you for your beautiful comment honestly means everything ❤️
Hands-down...best line of any reaction channel. Hannah conjured it from a past life surely :-))
"People should know when they're conquered."
"Would you Quintus? Would I?"
Fucking gold
This movie is a straight 10/10! I saw this at the theater when it came out and it was amazing!
Mate legit, so many movies come out getting 100% on rotten tomatoes, this is one of the very rare that actually deserves 10&100%
facts @@justtrustash
So many iconic lines in this film!! Russell and Joaquin had both been in stuff before but this film catapulted them to fame.
"The dog loves him..." Back in the day Hannah, dogs were used in battle to calm the horses. They would lead them into battle, almost like herding sheep.
Wtf. Dogs were used to hunt and guard the camps. I didn’t know dogs were horse whisperer’s🤣🤣😂
Ash your so lucky to have her, she has the best personality!!
The best.
An excellent movie from 1960 is Spartacus, directed by Stanley Kubrick it goes into more depth about how the Gladiators were trained and was made without any kind of computer animation, which makes it all the more impressive.
Hannah is the heart, and Ash is the soul of these reactions. That's why I keep coming back to these videos!
The thumbs up/thumbs down-thing explains like this: back then, thumbs up meant "go to heaven" (= die), while "thumbs down" meant stay on earth (= live). In our society, thumbs up means "great, super, perfect" ... so it would have contradicted.
“This feeds me well sire” funniest thing Hannah’s ever said
Hahaha oh mate this has to be in top 10
i rescued a bullmastiff mix and when i had to put his new name on his adoption papers, the only proper name that i could come up with was "maximus decimus meridius" he lived up to the name until the day he died - the most loyal, stoic and smart boy 🖤
Good name for a good boi.
Mad respect to Ash for his serious face meaning "I'm not saying shit" when Hannah asked if Maximus family is going to get killed!
They missed the part of recalling Maxinus Vinicius. Tons of reflection to the " bread & circuses " we have today
King Arthur (2004, with Clive Owen and Keira Knightly) is similar to Gladiator in its scale and theme too, really a hidden gem, it's done really well, and it's actually the historical sequel to Gladiator, as well, grins
Damn, i really miss Richard Harris. His role in this movie and first Harry Potter movies is just astounding.
Unforgiven is another movie where Harris chews the scenery.
I LOVE how she got so involved in the movie... It was like watching the movie with my Sister or Best Friend. 👍💖😀
Congratulations you're the lucky winner of the ongoing giveaway text me on télégrám to claim your package.....✅
Guys a fun fact for you, in Rome adoption was a very serious issue (adults were adopted too) to the point that the adoptive son would have a higher status than the natural sons; Maximus (in the movie) is the adoptive son of the Caesar so it is just natural that he would be the next caesar. It was the same for Julius Caesar, his adoptive son Augustus became caesar, his natural son with Cleopatra, Caesarion, did not.
You both have truly become my favorite movie commentators. Gladiator is such an excellent film. I love seeing others connect to the story. Ash and Hannah are an unstoppable duo
This has to be his best film when he lay dieing and was walking through the wheat field back to his family it gets me every time also the score is beautiful.
That's why Ridley Scott is my favorite director. He uses symbolism and philosophy a lot in his films. The movies have memorable dialogues.
Every single time Ash that you look at the camera with that knowing look, 15:26 I’m dead. Haha. She has no idea but we all know the scenes which are about to explode to life for her. It’s so glorious.
Thanks mate for letting us all come along with the journey and picking this movie. It’s one of the best films ever made imo. I quote it often to my kids and wife. 😂
I remember watching Gladiator 3 times in the theaters, the last movie I've seen more then once at the movies, it's epic and amazing, acting, music, story, just the best!
Mate I swear you made me mad jealous saying that, I was too young to see it in theatres! We’re people crying?
Lol yeah I was 18 then, and yes the crowd and myself as well were very emotional and definitely shed tears, and each of the 3 times I saw it over a couple month period ( movies were in theaters for months back then) the theater was packed
so hype having both someone who already loves the movie on one side and one reacting to it for the first time on the other
You guys might like Marcus Aurelius, the real one. His book “Meditations” is a bit hard to get through, as it’s just his diary, but you could look up his quotes on the internet, and see how an incredibly wise man he was. His lifes philosophy, stoicism, is so great
I have never told this, but my dad made me watch Gladiator movie with him before he died of diabetes like wanting to say "goodbye" to everyone. So, that's why Gladiator is a meaningful movie to me.
I totally forgot Ralf Möller was in this movie. Such a great role for him.
This movie is an absolute MASTERPIECE.
I have to say, the friendship with Maximus and Juba in this film reminds me of Spartacus and Varo. Such amazing performances all around.
I honestly don’t think any actor could have delivered Maximus’s lines as well as Russell Crowe did. He just has a gravitas few actors have.
The fact this is your fav film just makes me like the channel even more mate. Cheers
I absolutely agree with Ash on this film. Gladiator is amazing on so many fronts. Acting, directing, production, set design, script, everything. It was a masterclass in movie making.
Bro I've got to quickly pay respects to these, what looks like, short trailers of the films you react to before the reaction. The editing is actually dope and could easily pass as an actual TV spot. Big up!
Oiiiiii cheers mate ❤️
ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED!?
ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED!?
Winner of 5 Oscars including Best Picture.
Before Russell Crowe was cast as Maximus, Antonio Banderas, Mel Gibson, Tom Sizemore, and Tom Cruise were considered. Hugh Jackman was even considered for the role, but was an unknown actor and had been cast as Wolverine in the live action X MEN movie which Crowe was considered, but turned it down.
Filming began in January 1999 and wrapped up in May of that year.
The opening battle scene was filmed in Surrey England, the gladiator training school was filmed in Morocco and finally the scenes involving Ancient Rome were filmed in Malta and lasted for 19 weeks.
Crowe sustained several injuries during filming and almost died as a result, and nearly got himself killed by the tiger while fighting Tigris Of Gaul.
“My trousers would have fallen down with all that shit in them” 😂 Hannah has such a way with words. Poetry at its finest 😭
best fact about this film; they took out a sub plot about Maximus having a lucrative olive oil sponsorship because it seemed too unbelievable. It would have actually been one of the most historiaclly accurate things in the film, some gladiators did have sponsorships and celebrity status.
Anything Ridley Scott gets his hands on turns to 24K gold. One of my top 3 favorite directors of all time.
"The Music is unreal.." ..and you can say this to every single movie Hans Zimmer made the music for. This guy is such a genius... like a modern Beethoven.
I love you two inter reacting to movies! Please don't stop. It is just not the same when you 2 are apart doing reactions by yourselves. Keep the duo!
Likewise they're an amazing duo they're like mac n cheese, PBJ, spaghetti and meatballs
the ending of this movie is ridiculously beautiful, fav ending. The way the colosseum empties and pans up, amazing
Just so y'all know Marcus Aurelius the old guy in the beginning, is Dumbledore from the first two Harry Potter movies Richard Harris I believe was his name
What can you say about Gladiator but EPIC!! Perfect script, perfect casting, perfect score ... it just got everything right!
Great reaction to a masterpiece guys.... buuuuut it makes me think of Spartacus & how I think you really should carry that adventure on!
Chris PREACHHHHH!!
You guys killed it as usual. I never thought I'd laugh so much watching this movie! What's really crazy about the writing is that they basically made it up as they went along because the original screenplay pretty much got throne out. Some scenes were written on the same day as they were shot! The bts in the blu ray is a must watch, Ash
This, Alien, Blade Runner, The Martian... Ridley Scott knows how to shoot a damn movie. Atmosphere thick as soup, all of those films. And, yeah... Joaquin Phoenix in this film... you feel sorry for him while hating him, that's some strong acting there. RIP Sir Oliver Reed. And yeah, "I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next." That's how you rent space in someone's head... forever. Short speech, but one of the best monologues.
And it's always great watching Hannah figure out the beats of the movie to come before they happen. it's what makes a great ...reactor/react vid, really, when folks pay attention and clock stuff, not *just* reacting.
One of the best aspects of watching one of your reactions that Ash has already seen is when he looks at the camera and just smiles at what she has said because he knows what's coming up. Great reaction to one of the best movies of all time. You guys are amazing!
"My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius, commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions and loyal servant to the true emperor, Marcus Aurelius. Father to a murdered son. Husband to a murdered wife. And I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next."
If you don't get chills in this scene, you're not human.
Off topic but, Hannahs hair is so pretty.
She has the best hair, the quality of it is even better 👌🏾
I don't trust people who don't get hyped up and/or teary-eyed watching this film.
At 20:07 the guy with the spikey hair is probably a Gaul, they would often style their hair into spikes with things like animal fat or tree sap when they went into battle, Gauls believed in reincarnation so he definitely didn't fear being instantly killed.
Oliver Reed in this movie is insane man, some of the best dialogues in movie history
His final role!RIP Ollie!!
I'm with you in the feels department Hannah, and I'm glad you liked it.
You guys need to watch "Dances With Wolves", you will both love it.
Another tearjerker with the great Djimon Hounsou that's accompanied by another incredible score is Blood Diamond. That one's a must-watch. It gets me everytime just like Gladiator does.
That “old bloke” is Marcus Aurelius. Arguably the greatest emperor of Rome and an anomaly in terms of how genuinely how benevolent he was. You should read The Meditations.
If you love revenge stories like Gladiator, you both should react to The Count of Monte Cristo (2002)! The actor that played Marcus Aurelius in Gladiator (and Dumbledor from the first two Harry Potter movies) plays a major character. There’s also an appearance by young Henry Cavill! It’s SUCH a good story about vengeance and taking back control of your life after you’ve been stabbed in the back.
The acting in this film is absolute perfection,Crowe could do no wrong back then,followed this up with A Beautiful mind,Master and commander and Cinderella man,all brilliant films which could easily be done in this channel
Yes! Everything you just said.
when i was younger i hated the fact that he died in the end, but now i dont understand how i couldnt see the full picture. one of the greatest movies to ever exist.
these two vibe so well off each other. he gets so hyped at epic bits and she's super in touch with the emotional bits too
Youre right Ash, its not just yours and Hannah's reaction, youre both pretty entertaining
hes killing him with a cuddles🤣🤣🤣hannah kills me🤣🤣
The world building is the fact that Rome itself is a character. He did all this for the people of Rome . At that point we he lost everything the only thing he had left was to protect the one thing he had left Rome . He was able to get back to his family.
My favorite movie of all time!! The acting, soundtrack, theatrics, story, etc! There's nothing like it. I could watch this movie every day. The only others that come close are Braveheart, The Last Samurai, Rob Roy, The Last of the Mohicans and 300.
"Rob Roy". I've been saying that for years!. The best movie no one's seen. Tim Roth received his only Oscar nomination for his role in that movie. The movie never had a chance to get a foothold since it was released months apart for "Braveheart. But like Braveheart, it's about an actual person from Scottish history (Rob Roy Macgreggor). . Stars Liam Neeson in the title role. If you go to the IMDB there are a lot of 10 out 0f 10's from viewers for this movie.
I've got my 3rd year university submission due this Friday and your videos have been keeping me sane. Love your content and energy so much! Brilliant movie and brilliant reaction ash and hannah!
This is one of my favorite movies of all time and the two youse commentary is PERFECTION! I absolutely loved Hannah’s reaction to this, she is straightforward, honest and a complete riot
You guys are great. Watching flicks with y'all is good for the soul. I'm still laughing at Ash's smile to the camera when Hannah kept asking if the soldiers were gonna kill the family. Thanks for sharing. Peace and love to you and yours.
Hannah is looking especially lovely today.
Great reaction! ❤
STRENGTH AND HONOR
Bro this is a movie that actually moves me to tears at the end. He held on just until he completed his goals, then finally rejoined his family. I'm a guy and I'm not above not showing my feelings for a movie of this caliber.
I love how much Hannah is such a gentle soul❤ when she saw the first beginnings of the arena. she teared up!!
I'm so excited for this! Probably one of my favorite movies to watch, and the soundtrack is just *chefs kiss*.
Ash’s face after, “Get on your knees, tie your hair up.” 😂
Had so Wilde 😂😂
That famous propane tank at 28:51 always cracks me up each time I see this movie😂 Keep up the good works!
37:14 HANNAH TEACHING TOP TIER DIRECTOR'S HOW TO CORRECTLY SUBVERT EXPECTATIONS!! ASH YOUR REACTION WAS PRICELESS!!! LMAO!!!
Another historical movie Hannah would love: A BEAUTIFUL MIND (2001 film) starring Russell Crowe and directed by Ron Howard. And also, CINDERELLA MAN (2005 film), Crowe and Howard again.
You two are awesome as always! You bring a smile to me every time. 😄
Must say Hannah also looks AWESOME in that shirt.
About the thumbs up thing. What I’ve heard is that the origin of how it was used in Rome during the games was that the thumb symbolized the sword. A very common battle tactic of Rome was to have a jagged line of shields and they’d March toward another army, those soldiers would get funneled in the “teeth” of the “saw” made by the shape of the formation and they would thrust their swords into the enemies’ stomach, angle it up, and drive it into their stomach/heart/lungs for a quick kill so with the tip up (of both the thumb and sword) it means you’re dead.
Another thing that is misinterpreted is the thumbs up in an upward movement, when it was more of a forward, thrusting movement as if you were stabbing. Also the thumbs down, downward motion was symbolic of sheathing your sword. It makes total sense why they changed it for the movie though as we are more simplistic and thumbs up/down is easily portrayed as live/die.
IDK if anyone told you guys but the kid who played Joffrey in Game of Thrones based a lot of his mannerisms and portrayal of Joffrey on Joaquin Phoenix's portrayal of Commodus.
I watched this really young and it had some confusing moments like the incest but watched it as an adult and got the full understanding and appreciation for this masterpiece
💯💯💯💯
What Phoenix as Commodus conveys in that scene on the bed with his Sister is that as he "Dry Humps" her he prematurely ejaculates! It's priceless!
Oliver Reed ,Proximo, died of a heart attack and that the movie was dedicated in his memory.
You want to DIE!!!! Old man!?!?
I dated a girl from Germany in the mid 90's (still friends) and understood what the German Barbarian leader was saying in the beginning scene.
One of my favourite movies! About the thumb up or down: I read somewhere that in roman times, thumbs up meant kill your opponent. Thumbs down meant stick the sword in the sand, and let the losing opponent live. Sometime during history the thumbs sign changed to mean the opposite.
I know she is gonna love it and sob like a little girl. Because that's what i do everytime i watch it
Hi Ash, this is a truly legendary movie from Ridley Scott. One of my childhood favourites. Scott has another great movie, the title is Kingdom of Heaven. It's about the situation of Jerusalem between the 2nd and 3rd crusade. I think you would love it, but make sure you watch the director's cut which was not the victim of the studio's greed and stupidity.
You are right, Ash. You guys ARE the "gladiators" that we love to watch. I've seen this film a dozen times but watching it with the two of you made it 10 times better! Thanks for another great reaction.
Can't wait to watch the reaction! Also! You got a new sub Hannah! Always gonna support my favorite reacting couple across the ocean!
I'm still waiting for Ash and Hannah to react to Equilibrium.
I know Ash will love it.
I hope it's been recommended to them or at least on their list.
Great choice
I sometimes wonder what Ash's exercise routine is. He has SO MUCH energy when watching these movies. Like a kid getting his favorite ice cream. The excitement is palpable.
I’ll let everyone else talk about the reaction and how you two are so great. I just want to say that I freakin’ love you two. You are very entertaining and beautiful people. I laugh more from your reactions than multiple other reaction channels combined. I hope the best for you two!!! Keep it up!!
Russell Crowe also stars in my favorite movie. But that's the movie where a Royal Navy captain and his doctor friend visit the Galapagos.
Just subscribed! i've been watching so many of your reactions already, haha.
Ash was so excited, like a little child. In a way, Ash is right because you guys are so entertaining but you actually analyze and digest the movies you watch while you react to it and it’s beautiful. You are interested, you pick up on the symbolisms, the parallels and pay attention to the plot and I love that.
I would love to recommend these movies:
The Sixth Sense
Mother!
The Witch
I believe you will pick up on the symbolisms all of those bring for sure!
GET INNNNN!! So glad to have you on board mate ❤️ we’ll watch those eventually on the channel mate
Hans Zimmer Soundtrack!! Very best in the Business!
