It’s nothing short of divine how your dogs sense your emotions and respond accordingly.
Oh shhhhiii… RIP J’s tear ducts. Thanks for playing.
I love your dogs man.
They are so aware of your emotional state at all times.
Even if it's just a sad movie instead of real life circumstance, they stop to check in with you.
You're a lucky guy.
It’s one of those movies, that no matter how many times you watch it, you cry every time!
Hurts bad to watch
You nailed it, sir when you said, "your family just left the room." Great reaction. Thank you, Sir.
Another fantastic Clint Eastwood film, and one that broke hearts. Won Hilary Swank a Best Actress Oscar, and Morgan Freeman his long overdue only Oscar win. Clint Eastwood is nothing short of a legend, especially if you hear his incredible survival story back in his enlisted days.
I mean, the story is taken from a book already written. It’s not -that- amazing of Eastwood.
@@tempsitch5632 Haters gonna hate, js.
@@jeremyc4893 Sorry, I tried translating, but Google doesn’t speak preschool. Go get your adult/guardian to help you.
Most films are from books. That does not make the films any less impressive.
@@StinkyGreenBud Two stupid things to say ? That’s greedy. Just say one dumb thing at a time.
One of the hardest movies i've ever seen. One of the more beautiful.
Franky seemed pretty much dead when we first met him. Running on routines and regrets. She breathed life into him. Helped him to care again. To love. Enough that he was willing to face damnation to take away her pain. This movie lives in some very deep chambers of the heart. It's one of the best films i've ever seen.
It’s called perfect technique and timing, that’s why she is knocking them out quick.
It said she’s from Theodosia, Missouri. I actually grew up near Theodosia, Missouri. I, too, felt like trash. Parent’s credit so bad they started using us kids’ social security numbers cuz they couldn’t even have a light bill in their name. Electricity always shut off. Surrounded by a lot of other people living the same way. Trailers with moldy carpet and uneven floors, with the neighbor cookin meth. Just sad. Some of these small towns, man. They’re just full of tragic tales and people who almost never had a prayer from the very beginning. And that shit just becomes generational. I’m not just talking about folks living paycheck to paycheck or having struggles. That’s normal. I’m talking about parents who are a mess and take it out on their kids. Be good to your kids, folks. They’re gonna remember every time they had to suffer because of your bad choices. Just sayin.
This is probably my most favorite Clint Eastwood movie. Million Dollar Baby and We Are Marshall are the first film's I ever remember really getting to me. 😞
Every time Morgan Freeman narrates a movie, he earns a freckle!
He was willing to do whatever it took to help her. And then he was willing to take care of her himself forever.
I’ve been longing for someone to react to this movie, gets me every time
There are a few reactions you can find, if you haven’t already searched and watched them.
This film had me in tears for most of it. It just speaks to so many people who strive for something greater for themselves despite their circumstances but also how cruel life is...hits you like a bag of bricks
Margo Martindale (her mom) is one of the greatest character actors around. She was on Justified for a season and was Emmy nominated. She may have won. I don’t remember. Her IMDB page is packed with great performances.
Love your reactions
This is such an excellent movie. Clint Eastwood is epic and so is Morgan. Hilary Swank also killed it in this movie. The level of sadness in this movie is off the charts.
"It wasn't fault. I was wrong to say that."
"You damn right. I found you a fighter. You made her the best fighter she could be."
"I killed her."
"Don't say that. Maggie walked through that door with nothing buts guts. No chance in the world of being what she needed to be. It was because of you that she was fighting the championship of the world. You did that. People die everyday, Frankie - mopping floors, washing dishes and you know what their last thought is? I never got my shot. Because of you Maggie got her shot. If she dies today you know what her last thought would be? I think I did all right."
Fun Fact: Boxing and kickboxing champion Lucia Rijker, who also played the part of Billie "The Blue Bear" in this movie, was Hilary Swank's boxing coach.
Basic Training Fact: Hilary Swank underwent a serious training schedule to prepare for this movie. She gained nearly twenty pounds of muscle due to the workouts.
Music Enthusiast Fact: The song played on the bagpipes at the beginning of the final fight is The Rising Of The Moon (1866) and is an Irish rally song about the underdog Irish Army as they rebelled against the British in 1798.
Authentic Battle Damage Fact: Hilary Swank contracted a bacterial infection from a blister she developed on her foot during training for her role. The infection was so serious that she almost had to be hospitalized for three weeks. Catching the infection in the nick of time, she instead chose to take a week off for medicated rest and didn't tell Clint Eastwood or the other producers of this movie about the injury, because she didn't believe it was in character.
Thank you.
Those facts were fun.
Gertrude Laronge ...You're welcome. 😁
Go in Peace and Walk with God. 😎 👍
@@BigGator5 and also to you.
Thank you for the info.
When we saw this in theater my wife was having her monthly blessing don`t know cried harder.
It was heartbreaking watching you enjoying the movie until she got hurt, me knowing how the movie ends I just knew it will hit you hard.
Same. I'm so glad his puppy dogs were there to comfort him.
The wide crazy eyes during "oooh boy I can't say nothin nice bout this bitch."
I bet if JL wasn't wearing those headphones we woulda seen the steam comin' out of his ears. 😅
Such a fantastic movie. The writing, the acting, the directing, the camera work... everything. You know any movie that engages you so much that its hard to watch, has done its job well. Great reaction as usual.
The fact you quick to say “He ain’t shit” just does it for me. Love your honesty ❤️❤️
One of the biggest heart breakers. Clint knows how to make it hurt for sure.
Great reaction.
F the family for sure.
I predict J will conclude, "Great movie, but I will never watch it again."
Oh hell, this movie makes me so emotional.
This is my first time watching this film and reacting to it as well, and all I can say is 😢. Every perspective of this film except the boxing brought up the level of toxic environment that I grew up in my family. My brother passed away 3 years ago and he was a Navy Veteran. He endured similar circumstances and the hospital scenes were extremely difficult to watch. My father is just like the mother, greedy and abusive. Sadly there are some people you can and cannot trust even in your family. Thank you so much again for your genuine reaction 🫶🏼
So true. I relate.
Sorry you had to experience that bs.
You deserved better.
We both deserved better.
Amazing we're still alive.
That German boxer ain’t sheet.
I don't have to say this was another banger (in more ways than one) of a reaction, but the "she is hittin' them girls with that slave master hand" line took me OUT 💀
This is one of those movies that I watched expecting to get nothing out of it and it ended up giving me everything from it.
Absolutely love this movie and breaks my heart everytime.
I love and hate this movie, they all did such a great job acting and directing.
Dude your little rant halfway through had me in stitches, I hurt myself laughing LOL!
That face you pull at 39:36 was such pure hatred i love it. I remember feeling the exact same way when I saw this movie for the first time. Kudos to the actress because she plays the part so well it elicits actual hate
What a wonderful person that was who sent you those REALLY special things. Terrific.
@JL Yup your humanity is lovely to see. It is why the community you are the FACE of is so wonderful here. Never be afraid to show your emotions Sir it is why many of us fell in love with the channel. THANK YOU to the EOM staff and your amazing patrons.
I enjoyed your reaction to this movie. My mom passed away 10 days ago. She was a huge Clint Eastwood fan. Her favorite movie of his is Mystic River. It is a powerful movie and the best work Sean Penn, Tim Robbins and Kevin Bacon have ever done. I cried watching this with you and I thank you for that. I haven’t cried since my mom died. Your sweet and human reaction to this movie is exactly what I needed so thank you. I had a very long and good cry and I feel like a weight has been lifted from me. I apologize for going on for so long. I just wanted you to understand that your humanity and humor helps a lot of us out here. Now, please do a horror movie or a comedy next! Lol I recommend The Gentlemen. It has a stacked cast and is full of action and comedy. Thank you!
Oh no… 😬
My dogs are my pillar, as well, lol. They always know, and only want to make you feel better.
"my blood. my darling."
Yeah. I watched this twice.
Hilary won her second Oscar for Best Actress in a Leading Role for this film. Her first was for Boys Don’t Cry
Man, I knew what was coming and prepared myself for it but damn you, you got me tearing up! Lol when Drogo came to check on you I totally lost it! I could hear him saying “It’s okay dad, don’t cry.” What a sweet boy!
Eastwood & Freeman are a fantastic movie duo. This was a great movie that I never thought would take a turn like it did. Great reaction & commentary!
Three thoughts:
•There is a very big difference between living and existing.
•Every child deserves a parent, but not every parent deserves a child.
•Covid would have been much easier for all of us if only Morgan had been narrating it.
Stay safe & love big💖
Winner of 4 Oscars including Best Picture.
I've watched it a few times, it's a great film. I've said it before, but I just love your dogs. They try to be there for you the best way they know how. Pure devotion.
Loved your reaction. Glad your dog checked on you to make sure you were okay. 💔
I've been on this planet long enough to know a good man when I see one. YOU Sir, are a good man.
To be honest with you I was so furious with this movie when I first saw it because it seemed deliberately designed to break my heart and it felt sadistic, but having experienced some devastating personal tragedies since then I've come to realize the very intimate truth the story tells. And as far as the film itself goes, Hilary Swank gives an Oscar winning performance and I've adored her ever since her Oscar winning performance in my friend Kimberly Peirce's film BOYS DON'T CRY.
"I got to stop watching these sad movies!"
- scratches "A DOG'S PURPOSE" off my list for J's possibilities -
I may be too hyped for this.. already feel bad for JL and the copilots tho. But I freaking love this movie. Especially morgan freeman getting that last K.O. on poppa doc
He ain't no fighter. His real name's Clarence.
Damn this movie. This is on the short list of movies I can only see once!!
Omg. I almost forgot what an incredible movie this is and how insane it was watching it for the first time. Love your reactions and those sweet pup pups looking over your emotional well being
Your commentary had me rolling once again Haha. "What's tha B****** address we gonna go find her." made me spew my water out.
Been worried about this guy all weekend for this one!
DAMN dog! I'm SO envious of your boxing gloves sir. It's Sugar Ray, all day!!! Also, thanx for doing this movie. It's a hardass film, but so well made, and so powerful.
I love seeing those babies in the background! ❤️
That’s an awesome package of mail, too! I can see why people love you!
I have watched about 50 Clint Eastwood movies and I can tell you this is my favorite/best one. This film won the Academy Awards for Best Supporting Actor (Freeman), Actress (Swank), Director (Eastwood) and picture of 2004.
41:09 awwwwwwwwwwwwwww i have 2 dogs and i know how it feels when one or the other just pops up out of wherever, just to say hi and get a bit of lovin, and give some too definately the bright part in my life, i love them, yours look adorable, i have chihuahuas cause i cant afford to feed dogs as big as your dogs, but my chi will give just as much love as any big dog, good movie choice, its in my top 10 favs, i almost died the first time i seen it
I was just thinking to myself, there’s nothing to this kid! Then comes a winning quote out the gate: “If he fart he’ll fall down” 😂💯👏👌🥳👊👊
Here we go! Sorry to put you through this, J, but it’s such a great movie!!’
Cheers to all the EOM fans and creators! His unboxing was really precious and touching and made this reaction so much more
Here's a recommendation for another Morgan Freeman movie. Its not a tearjerker! An Unfinished Life. With Robert Redford and Jennifer Lopez. I love it.
Hugs to you and the pups so glad you have them.😢
Yep, this is definitely a "one time only" kind of movie. Watching this edited version with JL is the ONLY other time I've watched it. Hilary did such an amazing job and deserved every award she won for this part. The other major award-winning movie of hers is, Boys Don't Cry. I think my favorite movies of hers is, Freedom Writers, based on a true story.
Maggie's mom just moved to the top of the ain't shit and petty lists
I held my tears in until your baby kissed your tears away. This is devastating I have to actually watch it myself
Humble fan request: if you haven’t already seen it, would you consider doing a reaction to The Whale? I personally really enjoyed it and it won some academy awards. If you know nothing about it and choose to give it a shot, please go in blind! Thanks for doing what you do, really appreciate you and your channel!
Your babies love you so much. I love that they come check on you and care for you so much. I was laughing so hard about you saying that after her opponent bounced off the ropes it bounced her back into her soul. I also laughed ungodly hard when you said she hit her with that pimp hand. It’s such a tragic and sad story and she even tried to go out on her terms. Everyone in this movie gave an amazing performance.
The boxers's gloves, were timely given this watch.-Ernie Moore Jr.
I cried like an idiot, the first time I watched this movie. ❤😢
This is in my top 10 all time best movies. Love it! 😢
My favorite moment of this reaction is at 31:15... Mo Cuishle's mom made you growl in anger. And ur poor puppy was so scared by that 😃
If you need Clint to make you laugh - Any Which Way But Loose.
If you want Clint and Morgan deadly serious cowboys - Unforgiven.
Hugs to the co-pilots.
Make sure you have your co-pilots and tissue ready ❤️❤️
14:21 - 😂😂 that’s the quickest addition to the ain’t shit list I have seen. The sister was not even in the movie yet lmao.
Margo Martindale, who played mama, is a terrific actress.
you know its good when you see "clintwood" in any capacity i dont think he ever had anything to do with a bad movie period, not to mention hillary swank, morgan freeman and others,,,,,,,,,,
Much deserved Oscar winning films, along with the stars
Honest reaction sir. I have watched it almost a dozen times and it still gets me.
This movie always chokes me up, but I held it together until you said, "Your family just walked out the room." I'll never watch this the same way again.
Another incredible Clint Eastwood film! I think I've only seen it once, but man...that ending effed me UP. I couldn't believe it when I first saw it. That was NOT what I thought would happen.
That final scene in the church should have gave Clint the Best Actor Oscar
I love how the dogs keep checking on you
This was a tough one to get through. First time I saw it, it looked like it was going the way of a typical boxing movie, such as the first Rocky, then the turn it took and the way it ended, well, it wasn’t to be expected. Love the reaction. This is the thing some of us love about movies, it’s a reminder of how fragile life can really be and to always live life to its fullest. You’re a good dude, take care of yourself. See ya on the next one, find a comedy.
when your dog came to comfort you, I lost it...
If you haven’t seen them, check out the Titanic, Saving Private Ryan, and Green Mile reactions on the channel. They are the MVPs of those videos, too.
Morgan Freeman won an Oscar for this movie, but I get the impression that it was sort of a half hearted apology from the Academy for not giving him the award 10 years earlier for The Shawshank Redemption (He lost to Tom Hanks for Forrest Gump) when he REALLY deserved it.
Shawshank Redemption and Morgan's performance in it are very well remembered to this day. Almost no one remembers Million Dollar Baby, nor does it have the huge following of Shawshank.
This movie is so underrated. Sending love and hugs ❤❤
16:00 Same with our h.s. wresting squad. Our varsity could outlast nearly everyone around us. They had 1 hr practices; ours were 2.5 hrs. And coach had this one way of practicing certain moves/strats in which he would pair about 4 us up with a varsity guy and swap us out on them, giving us breathers but not the varsity guy.
Mo Cuisle means my pulse, taken also to mean the pulse of my heart or my darling in Irish. 😉 and JL, your pronunciation was great. You’re welcome here anytime Sir!
You can choose your friends but not your family... as well, you don't have a choice who you'll end up with in life's house
with... but you DO have a choice on what window to throw them out of.
Straight up, this was one of the finest movies ever. Super reaction J Man. Morgan Freeman can narrate just about anything! He could narrate a Pepsi commercial and it'll give you goosebumps 🤯! He's a real OG. And Hillary Swank 🤯! She's like our generations Meryl Streep!
Ive seen this movie one time and i cant bring myself to watch it again. The ending is so sad. But that speaks to the actors in this film and how well they did.
Thumbs up not only for this reaction, but also for your sense of justice that made you say all the things about her ******* family that go through the mind of any decent human being when watching this unfortunately very realistic movie.
This is Hilary Swank's second Oscar. Please also watch her first Oscar, Boys Don't Cry (1999).
You know, when I watch other reaction channels I feel like I'm just watching somebody else watch a movie, when I watch you I feel like I'm watching a movie with you.... Weird I know but as a single dude it's kinda nice...
Ohh honey! I'm so glad you picked one of the movies off that freaking tremendous list I'd sent you. I know you're going to enjoy this as much as i did. I've watched it multiple times due to the basic boxing history and mine. Just so you are aware~her opponent whose ring moniker is "The Blue Bear". THAT IS who trained her for this role AND over her career she has held many boxing belts. She is now retired for several years. SHE IS a true legend among the women's boxing circle. SHE IS one of the women in the boxing world that I always did and do to this day look up to. After watching this, look her up and check out her record.
😉💙😎🥊 #NYGenXBIKERLady
Your dogs are so sweet when they see you cry. ❤❤❤
My favorite boxing movie. your dogs showing you love was really nice to see
Get your tissues ready Jay, and have the comfort puppies close
The right kind of frank review for the right kind of movie.
Your dogs are like mine. My dog will sense me crying while watching a movie and comes over and wants to help. 🐕
