Sorry I can't watch the review, I've been chatting online with babes all day.
Are you too, training to be a cage fighter?
😂😂😂LOOOL
saw it in the theaters with a friend. during the credits he yelled "get out of my house" and people laughed
😂🤣 Nice! He gets it
The thing about this movie is that is oddly wholesome. It was and is a movie that is just a day in the life and thats it.
I noticed the same thing. I really didn't expect that
The thing about this movie is that the area is very slow at changing with the times by about 10 years or so so it's a joke that most people miss
I kinda noticed that. I wondered what year it was supposed to take place in. Lol
@@tomcattvreacts yeah in the 80s I think
@@tomcattvreacts 2004, its on his school ID in the intro
2004 is when it takes place. The town and community is stuck in about 1994 with the farmland maybe stuck in 1984 lol. Poor Uncle Rico stuck in 1982 😂@@tomcattvreacts
🤣😂🤣
My 3 girls (plus Jason and I both) love this movie! They're always asking to rewatch it, and they hardly ever watch movies. We quote it frequently too. And Ariel learned that opening song on guitar, and will sing along.
That's something I like is how clean it is. It's not something controversial to just sit down and watch it. So fun
I don't know who said it first or when it was first said, but the best way I have heard to describe this movie is "It's like watching a fever dream."
Lol, what a description 🤣
It's a masterpiece.
Amen 🙏
@@tomcattvreacts I don't like your response. There is not religion in this film.
@@iwanttocomplain Hallelujah
@@tomcattvreacts it would be a shame if the message of the film was subverted into something which it is not.
@@iwanttocomplain Preach!
Napoleon is even better the second time
I agree, I was cracking up while editing
I had the same reaction: first time watching, I kept waiting for a plot to happen. Second time watching knew it was just ridiculous and fully embraced and enjoyed the awkwardness 🤣
@@dawndreamweaver8373 just have fun with it!
Your reaction to this movie is about the same as everyone's... which is what makes it such a classic. First time I tried to watch it, I got through maybe fifteen minutes then turned if off. Second time, a friend suggested I watch it all the way through, loved it ever since. As quirky as some of the characters were in this, they learn, grow and have a happy ending, which is part of what makes it so endearing.
There have been disucssions over the years with its stars about making a sequel, but nothing has come out of it. As you mentioned, the 'lightning in a bottle' would be hard to catch again and I think that's why it's never happened.
Yeah, it makes sense. It's way too unique to duplicate. Not to mention, they probably had all the growth they were gonna have as characters. At least growth I cared about
Forget the movie. You have the voice of an angel, sir.
THE VOICE OF AN ANGEL!
Thanks! Still think family guy did it better though, 😆
Ah yes, I too love the sound of glass in my garbage disposal. 🥰
How did you know about my other channel?

@@tomcattvreacts 😂🤣
Fun Fact: Theatrical movie debut of Ashley Jackson and Emily Kennard Dunn.
Twin Twist Fact: Both Jon Heder and Efren Ramirez, who play the lead characters in the movie, have an identical twin.
Extra Extra Fact: The movie featured one of the longest credited cast lists in movie history; all 181 student extras' names are listed in the closing credits.
Arts And Crafts Fact: Jon Heder drew all of the drawings in the movie except the unicorn. Jon Heder also helped to make the boondoggle keychains between scenes.
What Script Fact: Due to the film's surprise success at festivals and in its limited release, Fox Searchlight re-edited the film to add a five-minute epilogue at the end. This epilogue, which was filmed after the initial theatrical run, features a surprise "wedding scene" that cost about half of what the entire feature cost to make.
Power Of Editing Fact: The movie was edited in producer Jeremy Coon's apartment using a $6,000 Macintosh with Final Cut Pro. For Napoleon's dance routine, director Jared Hess had Jon Heder improvise and dance to three different songs. Hess then took the "best" moves from each song and put them in one routine, using one song.
I feel like it goes unsaid but thanks again for the trivia
You're welcome! Gives you some channel interaction as well.
Also, how are you doing? Haven't seen you in awhile.
Ops. I somehow missed the quote. It was, of course:
"Gosh!"
Go in Peace and Walk with God. 😎 👍
Doing Great, I'm exhausted because I just moved onto 38.9 acres in the country. It's been a lot of work and motivating to do something that isn't sleep is kind of hard. Not to mention I have to remember where I put all of my crap. 😂🤣😂
Who tf is Ashley Jackson?
@@kronostvxI jokingly thought one of the girls in the audience or walking by so looked her up… I was correct… lol but still counts!
I’ve seen this movie probably 3 times, and thought it was quirky, awkward, and funny, like pretty much everyone does. In the past couple days, I found myself kinda rabbit-hole-ing on reactions to it, and it’s helped me to understand its truly touching aspects. Excellent reaction and analysis, as always! Muchas gracias. Vote for Pedro! That’s my plan.
Thank you, and I agree! Reaction are really good for that. That's part of why I watch them!
I could reciite this entire movie from memory when I was in high school 😆 I used to watch it over and over just so I could lip sync it
WOW, my dad was the same way with STAR WARS
Seeing this a bit late but wanted to say congratulations on your move and the acquisition of some sweet land!!!! Best wishes to you and your family.
Thanks a lot, we are happy 😊
Best wishes to you as well
22:00 DEB IS THE CUTEST GIRL EVER 😭 MY HEART IS MELTED 💕
Growing up in the dairy country of upstate NY, I'm always surprised when reactors don't know about the FFA - also the Dairy Princess and drive your tractor to work day.
Lol, people don't know what FFA is? I had 2 cousins in FFA and where I'm living, it's huge. I plan on my daughters doing it
Great reaction- many people have seen Uncle Rico without even knowing, as he played "Lazlo" in the move Real Genious alongside Val Kilmer
Never Seen It, I know it's an 80's classic though. I'll have to check it out
I love your idea for a sequel with Kip's half-black kids! But he's a sweetie, not a predator!
My first impression was predator, but I changed my mind. He's pretty innocent. Glad you like my spin-off idea, I feel like it'd be really fun.
First time viewer here. Subscribed 😉🙂
Didn’t think I liked this on my first viewing but it stuck with me and cracks me up now…lol.
Congrats on the new home!
Thanks a lot! I wasn't sure whether I'd like it and it was a nice surprise
@@tomcattvreactsif you didn’t the first time it’s ok, it means it needs a second time (: but when you can relate…
There probably wasn't a sequel to this movie because Jon Heder (Napoleon) was asked if he would ever be open to doing a 2nd movie if it wasn't with the original director and he said no.
@@SoAaron_ Ah, that makes sense
People have been wanting a sequel to this movie but i don't think it needs it
I agree. It'd be interesting, but I think it would taint perfection
Super Troopers didn't click for me until my 30s
always loved Beerfest (same guys), and their Slammin' Salmon and Club Dread are a'ight
Lol, I've heard of it. Just don't know much about it
Some people hate it but I think this movie is fantastic👍🏼
I agree with you. I tried to get my wife to watch it. She didn't get it, lol
Yeah people call it, boring, long, stupid, and racist. They got to shut it
👏🏽
Congrats on the move! God, this movie more than any other makes me feel like time flies. I remember when it came out it was huge. I have such fond memories of the movie. I also really enjoy how many outdoor scenes there are. It adds to the bright non serious tone of the movie.
Agree, I remember when it first came out, too. Everyone kept talking about it, and I was completely out of the loop. Lol
Such an off-beat movie, I struggle to put into words the reasons why I enjoy it so much. No idea how many times I have seen it now, but whenever I see it on TV I can happily sit down and watch the whole thing all over again 🙂
This movie really surprised me from start to finish. I love that Napoleon is actually I really good guy who loves his friends and family.
Really enjoyable watch
The lady who rides the bike up to uncle rico is the actor kips real life wife
Really!?!? That's crazy!
@@tomcattvreacts yep true
Well done commander.
Thank You sir!
Kip reminds me of ed Kemper lmao
No kidding, he's super creepy. Especially at first. Lol
A lot of ppl dont get the joke behind Pedro shaving his head... it was like a coming of age thing.... he was becoming an ese.
Oh? That makes a lot of sense, lol
what??? idk where you got that idea from pedro just does shit the whole movie that’s who he is. he just decides to ask summer to the dance, randomly decides to run for class president, shaving his head because he was hot is just an extension of that imo i don’t think it was supposed to be a joke lol
@@ryennino5470 the inside jokes are a major theme in the movie.... there are too many to count, that's part of what makes it so funny. U can look it up.
Before this movie, the director Jared Hess made a short film called “Peluca” where the characters are very similar to this movie, but the central point was that one of the guys shaved their head and needed a wig. So I think maybe that’s why they put it in.
@@stickyyyyyy nah bro
Tomcat, You have the best smile ever.
Thanks😁
Stupid movie?! I assume they meant silly, aimless, or that the characters were stupid lol. And if it’s intentionally funny, is it really stupid?
I think some people only see what's on the surface and don't see the depth on the story and characters.
While I'm not a fan of jon heder this is a good movie
It really is
@@tomcattvreacts yep
He really can only play napoleon dynamite
@@Blumanisntred true
