Me and all the chicks in the theater was in tears, lost my dad 1 year before this movie came out and it hit so many nerves...my 5th fav movie of all time
Nice reaction and thoughts! I don't usually get emotional watching films but this one definitely got to me as well. It isn't obesity but I did see myself in Charlie's shut-in living situation, working from home, saving all of my money, etc. The movie was a little heavy handed with it's messaging... a little more nuance would've helped imo. Thomas was a pretty nice portrayal of an earnest young man, excited about being a part of his church... as I was. I still am a Christian, just haven't been a weekly service goer for awhile. To my knowledge Mormons are the only ones who go door to door, so I'm not sure who the director was aiming for with the 'New Life' church.

Love your reactions, Cass. Others have commented before on your thoughtfulness and honesty as you reflect on what you've seen, and those really help your videos to stand apart from those of many others. As a quick point that someone should make: Brendan's last name is actually pronounced "FRAY-zer" (i.e. not the same as Frasier). He's mentioned it in some videos or interviews as I recall, since it's apparently a common misconception. Keep doing your thing! :)
The first video I saw was when you published your reaction to the red wedding of Game of Thrones. I've been following you ever since, I don't know how many years. Greetings from Mexico
Brendan totally deserved the Oscar man. I hope Hollywood calls for him more, he's such a talented person. Martin Scorcese got him into Killers of the Flower Moon but we need more :D
I watched the movie Pi on the tail end of an acid trip about 15 years ago. The other people I was with "oh HELL no"'d on out of there in the first ten minutes, but I was transfixed by it and I have loved Aronofsky's movies ever since.
Yeah, I listened to Brendan Fraser talking about his experience in Hollywood. I really think Brendan deserves the best in life, and that Hollywood executives have a LOT to answer for. I saw this in the cinema, and there were only two other people in the theater. We were all trying to hide our desperate crying. It was such a powerful performance that I left the theater in shock and with so much sadness that it took a few days for those feelings to subside. It is truly painfull, heartbreaking that the world is full of Charlie's, Ellie's, Liz's, all isolated and alone in their pain and suffering...I hope society changes.
The TV movie "Sweet Hostage" from '75 had a similar idea as this one. An escaped mental patient kidnaps a teenager with the goal of elevating her thinking from a dysfunctional state. By doing so, giving his tormented life purpose. He's not the type of guy who's had a history of being well-received, and the movie tries to make the audience more sympathetic to his lifelong struggle as a complicated, misunderstood soul.
I love your reactions. Going with one of the themes of this film -- you always seem honest & genuine. It never feels like you're playing it up, and that's why I subbed. As for your question -- I think Thomas is a just flawed character (like many others in the film). He doesn't realize the harm he could do to Charlie with his words. I don't think it came from a place of malice, but instead perhaps a selfish desire to be able to say that he helped Charlie while on his "mission".
These kind of stories always make me think of this classic song from the 60's. I guess everybody can relate to being misunderstood at times. >>> ua-cam.com/video/_2sz_YwwwQ4/v-deo.html
Blast from the Past, Bedazzled, and The Mummy (1&20. Turns out, Ellie was the whale, and Charlie was Ahab. Both Ahab and Charlie died because of their whale. Both Ellie and Moby were called evil, and both launched attacks at their respective chasers and then left. Funny that the movie ends at the beach, since they talk about exploding the definition of self." Did you know that dead beached whales, if left alone, actually (literally) explode?
Thomas (IMO) was experiencing a crisis of faith. I agree with Grapevine's comment that on the surface, Thomas may not view himself as thinking he is better than Charlie... but deep down he probably thinks that Charlie's "choice" in who he loves is irredeemable...unless Charlie can disavow his past behaviors and "choices", and embrace the beliefs that Thomas has learned throughout his young life. I think Thomas is wrestling with two incompatible ideas: acceptance and love vs. sin and damnation. At the same time, Charlie is living in his own hell, and suffering for his choices, but mostly because of his inability to forgive himself for how his selfishness (at realizing who he is, and trying to find happiness in that understanding, but doing so in a way that harmed his family both old and new). In the end though, Thomas succeeded in his mission by inadvertently helping Charlie connect with his daughter and find that moment of redemption at the end of his existence. I'm not sure if this stream of consciousness makes any sense, but it's what's swirling around in my head at the moment.
i didnt like thomas at all and in my view he was only there to show that his daughter means well with people even tho shes not able to show it in the nicest way, probably to protect herself and probably due to her suffering she thinks she knows better for some people what they need in these situations, and due to HER forgiving her dad, even tho she didnt voice it early or barely at all, she knew his parents wouldnt care about what he did so she took his problem away for him, i guess i could go on and on but thats it for now xD.... great reaction as always
Tbh, I could still see the movie playing out almost exactly the same without Thomas. Your right, he was basically just there as a character who basically plays the audience.. coming into this family completely oblivious to everything so that someone can explain certain stories(for him but also for the audience to hear) and so other characters can develop more in the story..
@@matttheman9740 Thomas was definitely a plot device (which I don't even think is bad tbh), but I think he was also a way for the writer, Samuel Hunter, to explore his relationship with Christianity, as he grew up in the faith
@@noellethomas2589yeah i think Thomas is a nice addition because it poses interesting questions about how people dedicated to their faith try to walk the line of being “tolerant” but still trying to do what they see as “helping” people. But their reasons for wanting to help are often rooted in an intolerance for the person’s attributes or behavior. Clearly Thomas does not “hate” Charlie in a traditionally homophobic or fatphobic sense, but he still thinks Charlie is “wrong” and needs to be corrected, which basically means he cannot help Charlie coming from that angle. Thomas is basically the representation of everyone in Charlie’s life with good intentions whose only advice was ever “You would be happier if you weren’t yourself” And like with Ellie’s personality, it’s something that is hurtful to others but coming from a place of what Thomas truly feels as love.
Just started watching. I don’t love this movie but I’m glad you are still doing these Oscar movies. Not that the Oscar’s are terribly important but it’s nice to have some variety amongst reactors.
I love your takes, but I get the feeling that you believe people that big want to be that big and it's solely on them. Most obese people are obese because of things in their lives that drive them there.
Here’s the thing about Charlie: he’s a wonderful person, but a very shit father. They say multiple times that Charlie hasn’t seen Ellie in 9-10 years which means that he never made an effort to see her until now. Even if he tried to get her mom to let him see her, he never contacted her directly until now. Charlie never cared to contact Ellie, even though he had her contact in his phone, until he found out that he was probably going to die by the weekend. Basically, Charlie only wanted to see Ellie and decided contacted her himself because he just wanted to see her and maybe connect with her before he dies. At one point while he has an argument with Ellie’s mother, he says “I need to know that I have done one thing right with my life” basically insinuating that he only wanted to see Ellie for his own benefit of not dying with the thought of never seeing her on his conscious. He selfishly only wanted to connect with her and care for her right before he died so that he won’t die with that guilt. It was all for his own benefit. If he had Ellie’s contact all this time, why did he never make an effort to contact her? Yeah her mom doesn’t want him to see her, but Ellie is already rebellious and he didn’t care about her mom’s thoughts on her being her this time around. I would act exactly how Ellie acted and maybe even worse if I were in her position. Sure, you can label her as ‘cruel’, or ‘awful’, etcetera, but she was simply acting on what she knows- protecting herself. Her defense mechanism is built off of years of heartbreak and rejection building up a wall so thick and solid that nothing can get in or out of it. I’ve been in a very similar place to Ellie, and i’ve never been the same since that person left me. It haunts me at night and there’s not a day that goes by where I don’t think about it. Ellie was perfectly understandable and I truly do love her. Especially because I can relate to her in a way that i’ve never related to a character before. She is so beautifully imperfect as we all are, and I think her flaws define what makes her different. I’m very protective of Ellie because I get her. I understand her. I want to give her a hug and just love her because she’s never received love. You see the way her mom treats her too, she clearly gets her attitude from her mother. Not only has her father rejected her, but her mother also. She may have stayed, but she treats Ellie like shit and is an emotionally-abusive alcoholic. Ellie is something her mother and Charlie made out of love which makes her mother feel angry now that Charlie left and left what they made. When her mother started changing, Ellie did. Nothing was ever her fault. She’s learned everything from the way she speaks to how she acts from her parents, as all kids do. Being neglected isn’t easy and i’m surprised she hasn’t tried to (TW) kill herself yet. I’ve been through a lot of similar things and jesus do I have issues. She’s such a beautiful,y crafted character and I can’t help but feel like she’s real; like I need to protect her and show everybody else who calls her nasty things and don’t understand her who she really is and make them or at least try to make them understand her like I do. I’m sorry for this painfully long essay-like comment, but I just feel the need to defend a person who is so clearly hurt in unimaginable ways. I could write a fucking english paper on this movie and Ellie’s character.
I think a lot of people are hard on Ellie because the movie goes out of its way to almost never give her a warm moment. Its only at the end. I agree with you but the movie really shadows her good side and I think thats why people get the impression she's evil. (Also I don't know if calling that love he has selfish is completely fair because I believe all love is selfish. No one would do it if it didn't give them something. Plus I think it fits with his character that he needs to see he has finally run out of time to get the wakeup call. Always ignoring issues is what led him to become as heavy as he was in the first place, and probably why he married a woman when he was gay. He doesn't seem to accept problems until it's too late. He's a good person overall but negligence seems to be in his nature)
I'm happy to see love for Ellie. I was also in a similar situation; my mother starting cheating on my disabled father when I was about ten, then after two years of bare minimum contact with her where she spent most of her time on the phone with her boyfriend, we just completely lost contact. My father began abusing me in every way you can define abuse, and the funny thing is that I held (and still hold in many ways) more visceral anger towards my mother than him. I still have this maybe childish notion that she should've known, and she should've saved me. She never explicitly knew about the abuse (at least I don't think; many years of my life are a blur), but I suppose it's easier to hold myself in that place of anger and suffering than learn how to let it go. We were reunited out of necessity a few years ago, and things are still not good for me or her or our relationship, but she's housed me and paid for my therapy and given me time to process everything. This movie did wonders for me in terms of working towards forgiving my mother. I watched it with her, and in the very emotionally constipated way she talks about feelings, she apologized and told me it wasn't my fault. She had done so multiple times before when I would break down and write horrible things to her and tell her I wished she would just die (that scene in the film destroyed me but made me feel so seen), but this time I could receive it with a bit more understanding. I still can't make sense of how a parent can still care about their child after leaving them like that, but it's also never that simple. My mother sent me money like Charlie did with Ellie, and my father had his part in making me feel like my mother was the enemy so he could obfuscate his abuse, much like what was implied with Ellie's mother. Abandonment seems to be one of those things you have to experience to really understand. It's a decision on the part of the parent that seems so innocuous- they're just simply not there anymore- but it leaves such deep and long-lasting wounds. I give people a little grace because of this and because of my shared mindset with Charlie. It's still hard to see people agreeing with Ellie's mother when she says Ellie is evil- a moment that is one of the most heartbreaking for me. One seemingly very simple lesson I got from the film that I've been told for a long time but never really internalized was that you cannot change the past. What has happened, happened, and if you don't make peace with that fact, you will be stuck in that horrific misery of events already taken place for the rest of your life. Even if Charlie didn't deserve forgiveness (an opinion I do not exactly share), Ellie did. She deserved to be able to move on from the hurt he and her mother caused her. Just like we deserve to be able to move on from the people and events that hurt us. Holding onto all that anger and grief isn't going to do anyone any favors.
Brendan Fraser actually moved me to tears in this. Despite what he did with leaving his wife and kid I felt so bad for him when he was trying to make amends and she was being so horrible to him (with some justification too). Just the fact that he wouldn’t even pay health insurance so he could keep all his money back from his daughter was so nice. In the end he was willing to give up his own life to try and improve hers.
Me and all the chicks in the theater was in tears, lost my dad 1 year before this movie came out and it hit so many nerves...my 5th fav movie of all time
I have to ask. What's #1?
I was balling my eyes out when it was over, and I NEVER cry. If This Movie didn't make you cry even a Little bit, Nothing will.
I was crying so hard at the end. This was an amazing movie!
Nice reaction and thoughts! I don't usually get emotional watching films but this one definitely got to me as well. It isn't obesity but I did see myself in Charlie's shut-in living situation, working from home, saving all of my money, etc. The movie was a little heavy handed with it's messaging... a little more nuance would've helped imo.

Epic prediction. "She's not gonna like this" one second later: "No, I don't like this!"
I thought brenden carried the movie and Hong chau as the nurse was great.

MY FAVORITE part of the movie, is when the MOM comes in and tells her daughter to SHUT UP !!!!!!! 😁😁😁😁😁

Fantastic reaction to a phenomenal movie, can't wait to continue to watch your channel beautiful.
I found a perfect mystery movie for you, it’s called “The Last of Sheila” and it’s very fair play
A far as I can tell, this movie is about not being judgemental, and the test is whether you are judgemental towards the flawed Christian guy.
These kind of stories always make me think of this classic song from the 60's. I guess everybody can relate to being misunderstood at times. >>> ua-cam.com/video/_2sz_YwwwQ4/v-deo.html
Little detail: Fraser is pronounced like razor. 😉
Wait is this Cass? Holy hell long time no see
A normal blood pressures reading should be below 120/80 his was 238/134

Brendan saves this movie.
I've cried. The daughter is an awful person.
I've watched it five times, hoping my mind would change.
Nope
I didn't think I would want to watch this movie again. It was an unsettling experience viewing it in the theatres.
