- This was a tense revenge film and Jack (played by Michael Caine) was stone-cold, gung-ho, and didn't give a FUUU about what he had to do to get information!

Ooh! I know a story about this movie! While it was being filmed, my Dad (who was a Geordie) had some leave from the Army and with an old friend, decided to go fishing from a dock on the Tyne. While they were fishing, a film crew arrived and began setting up. According to my Dad, a very over the top camp gay guy came rushing over to them and imperiously ordered them to leave. My Dad said: "Fooking make us - if you can". His mate started snarling in a truly bloodcurdling way. The film guy uttered a shocked "Oh!" and hurried away. The film crew continued setting up and a while later Michael Caine arrived. After a few minutes he personally came over to my Dad and his mate and apologised for the first guy. He explained that they were shooting a movie scene and that my Dad and his friend were in the way. He asked very politely if they would mind waiting for a couple of hours and offered them champagne in his car. This approach worked much better and my Dad and his friend polished off a bottle of bubbly while waiting for filming the scene to finish. My Dad was always impressed by what a gentleman Michael Caine was.
Possibly one of the best British movies ever made. The grim reality of life in a Northern Industrial city is laid bare. Newcastle in 2023 is a million miles away from how it was back then. Now let's look a Michael Caines finest performance.. faultless. ❤
I didn’t get why Caine’s character cried watching the ‘movie’ first time around. But on a second viewing, I realised that Doreene wasn’t just his niece…but his daughter (raised by his brother). A powerful piece of acting by Caine.
Ohhhhhh wow… I didn’t even realize!
@@OGBReacts yes! then you really understand why he goes berserk. There's also that moment later when he's on a boat, and briefly smiles at a mother and her kid. You realise Carter deeply wants to live a normal, family life. But that the gangster within wouldn't let him. He's a tragic figure in the end.
Yep, she was. In the novel, his affair with his brother's wife precluded his moving to London to work for the Fletchers (who were fictional representations of the real life Kray twins) and it clarified that he was indeed the "bad" brother. The criminal life destroyed his daughter, he realized what a failure of a person he was. Caine's acting got this across without it being explicit in the screenplay, great acting.
@@EmlynBoyle I don't agree, if anything it makes him even more contemptible and self-pitying. Caine the actor acknowledged this aspect of Carter in interviews. Jack Carter is perfectly willing to tolerate the abuse of 'other' vulnerable young women so long as they aren't 'close family'. He's scum who looks down on other scum, like prisoners who mete out violence to those they consider to be lower down the food chain. Despite this, Caine's bravura performance and charm effortlessly overcome this chilling lack of self-awareness. It's a fantastic film very much of it's time - and yet sadly we continue to see the notion of violent revenge promoted again and again in movies/media as some noble deed done by otherwise decent people...
Gateshead lad here - That car park always stunk of piss. Now there's a Nandos, a Tescos and a Sports Direct shop there.
I feel so old lol
Please watch When the wind Blows (beautiful British animation film) heartbreaking. Love you x
Every time I pass through Newcastle on a train, the theme tune plays in my head.
"They're hard nuts up there, Jack"
Roy Budd
@@alfching2499 The soundtrack CD is well worth having. Anything by Roy Budd is worth having!
Good to see someone doing Get Carter. A couple of little bits of trivia, the assassin at the end is in the train carriage with Carter at the beginning of the film. In the bar when Carter first gets to Newcastle theres an actual six-fingered man who is one of the extras. Its also hinted that Doreen might be more than Jack's niece and that there is a chance that she might be his daughter instead of Frank's
the assassin is on the train because he is following him up to Newcastle, it is actually Carter's boss in London that puts the hit out on him rather than the gangsters in Newcastle....Carter is having an affair with his boss's girlfriend, the Britt Ekland character, so his fate is sealed before he even arrives at his destination.
Carter's fate was sealed from the beginning.
The hit man was in the train carriage with him tracking him.
Great flick. More people should react to this. Very influencial and one of my faves! There was a bad remake with Stallone in 2000.
Anna is played by Britt Ekland, the physical actress for Willow in The Wicker Man. This time you get to hear her real voice, and the Swedish accent that caused her to be dubbed in that one.
One my favourite ever films even tho it's much older than me.
'You're a big man but you're in bad shape. For me, it's a full time job, now behave yourself!' Quality.
Great reaction to my favourite British gangster film. Caine is brilliant as Carter & the director brings such a stark realism to the film its hard to remember in 9 years time he'd be directing the camp romp that was Flash Gordan!
This is such an icon film for young men in the UK. Not for when it came out but for generations. Though it wasn't big enough here in the US, it's referenced in later films, music, and film making. Guy Ritchie has literally built a career off this genre of films. I remember hearing punk and SKA music reference "Michael Caine" not having a clue who that was till I saw the movie. I have friends my age from the UK who tried to "fashion" themselves as young Michael Caine's. With the dress, speak, and style.
It's truly and iconic piece of UK cinema. Thank you again Sam, for a great review and Level 5 Patron Ryan for the choice. Good job all around.
Interesting choice for a film. Caine did several films of this ilk in the 60s and 70s, and don’t forget Alfie. Thanks.
Classic movie Carter was amazing doing this movie great storytelling and storyline
Sir Michael Caine hits it out of the park in this revenge action thriller.
A remake of the same name was released in 2000 starring Sylvester Stallone with Michael Caine. Unfortunately it was not well received by Critics or fans of the original.
Yes the remake was truly awful.
It's always a mistake to do a remake of an iconic film.
They made a blaxploitation film later on with the same story (Jacks Return Home eas the original book), but it was instantly forgotten
A classic! One of my favourite Michael Caine films.
Great classic British earthy film, you can almost smell the grime and the crime, very seedy and quite believable really even though its fiction. Out of interest the boss with the beard is the great 1950's - 60's playright John Osborne, one of the 'angry young men' brigade that changed theatre at that time. Unusual choice movie and all the better for that!
To understand the full impact of this film, you have to know that for quite a while beforehand, British gangster films tended to be very much on the "light fun romp" side, if not straight up comedies. In fact, Michael Caine himself had starred in one of the best of those, The Italian Job, just two years earlier. So this movie was very much intended to shock the audience with a reminder of just what these people were like in real life. In the process, it also provides a fascinating sociological experiment, of the kind perfected by Breaking Bad. For all that Jack Carter has a sympathetic motive in finding the truth about his brother's death, he's still a completely cold-blooded, brutal thug, and you're probably going to turn on him at some point, and the longer it takes, the more you might want to examine how much simply making someone like him the story's main character can cause you to forget your sense of morality. The way he's after no less than death for every single person even tangentially involved in Frank's death, no matter how little personal responsibility they actually had for it, is just impossible to justify after a while and we're left thinking he deserves exactly what he gets, with that ending solidifying just how great a movie this is.
Good analysis , I felt particularly sorry for Glenda and Margaret , as they werent responsible for his brother's death . In fairness Jack didnt kill her , but the implication is that he wasnt bothered when his car got shunted into the dock . The only real totally ' innocent ' people were the ones killed in their car when Brumby landed on it . I also wonder why he didnt kill Kinnear and left him to the police , which is what he should have done with the others too .
@@scooby1992 I know the answer to that.
It wasn't in the script:)
A great choice, a fantastic, uncompromisingly brutal, grim look at the harsh reality of gangsters. Caine met thugs like Carter in his travels and wanted to quash the romanticisation of vicious sociopaths like the Kray Twins (Ron & Reggie). The film strongly infers that Doreen is Carter's daughter. As You said He's a "horndog".
It's also worth noting that Carter's tears are not for Doreen. They're for himself. Like every sociopath/psychopath He has no empathy, no concern for others. Doreen is his blood, but more so (to him) his property and Eric and Kinnear crossed a line. The tears may also be read has acknowledgement of His long ago lost innocence and identity. Losing his Geordie accent, picking up the Cockney patter to blend in and survive down south. Caine is brilliant. Few well known actors and certainly not "stars" would play a complete, irredeemable bastard. He is ably supported by the cream of British character actors.
It was also interesting that John Bindon was in the film and apparently he had either been a gangster or certainly had some very dodgy connections . He died quite young as was reported to be a friend of Princess Margaret , who was said to be ' intrigued ' by his party trick of balancing several pint pots on a certain part of his anatomy !
@@scooby1992 Bindon was a gangster who liked to do a bit of acting.
@@davidmcintyre998 Apparently he was also a hit with the late Princess Margaret and had a unique party trick !
Bindon died of Aids
I love when you watch older, classic movies. May I suggest Imitation of Life from 1959. I think it falls into the extremely underrated category. Or if you'd like to tackle a VERY long movie, go for The Ten Commandments. That's my favorite! 🤗
For more Michael Caine I recommend Sleuth (1972).
Wonderful watching this with you, thanks for that (and to Ryan).
This is the brilliance of watching 'older' flicks and seeing the back-catalogue of some actors that one would only recognize from their later works... it's their prior work that brings some added depth to their later roles... with a movie like this, who else would make for a better mentor to tutor a young master Wayne on the ways of the underworld. Brilliant casting choice from Nolan.
It's a surreal moment when you remember Jack Carter also worked with the Muppets.
One of my favourite films and I didn’t know it existed until when I found it in a nice Blu-ray boxset this year. Thank you for your reaction!
The opening music was a new style and amazing!
Caine said he did not like British gangster movies where they are funny and charming, Caine said he knew gangsters from when he was young and the were not funny and charming, but nasty and violent, He knew guys like Jack Carter,
Though a bit amusing that this didn't stop him from doing The Italian Job two years earlier.
THE LONG GOOD FRIDAY is another classic British film that youd probably like. With another cockney, Bob Hoskins (Roger Rabbit) as a gangster
Strongly agree, long Good Friday is amazing
Brilliant film. Almost mandatory on the British curriculum.
I would recommend Le Samourai with Alain Delon as similar (a mate of mine has the brilliant theory that the Caine lookalike in Le Samourai's famous bridge scene is supposed to be Carter).
I never seen this but it considered a Micheal Caine at his time moving from bad boy to classic actor
When the pits closed a great deal of money was spent cleaning up that beech and its a good few miles from the staithes at Blyth.
Like most reaction hosts- you watch with 2020 sensibilities, things were vastly different in the 20th century and in each decade.... I recommend you let it give you an understanding of the past and not try to force it into today's box. Enjoy and think, well- that's how it was (watching your Victor Victoria reaction- an 80s film about the 30s)
When Carter gets to Newcastle, and he goes into the Long Bar, there is a man drinking a pint and he has six fingers on his hand.
Love Michael Caine!!! Thanks for covering this movie.
As a geordie it's strange to hear the high level bridge called the iron bridge. Wicked movie, like dropped
If you're always up for a Michael Caine film, then I recommend "Water" from 1984. Apart from the fact that a few world-famous musicians perform there, you'll also get your money's worth in terms of humor... Greetings from Germany
Good Reaction to a classic British film.
The front door opened? That was back then in the Late 1960s/early 1970s, most Working Class families(especially the further North you go) were [art of a real Community where friends, family, and neighbors can pop in at any time.
MICHAEL CAINE became semi-famous in ZULU(circa 1962) but DID become famous in ALFIE(1964) all about "Swinging" London. Well worth watching:).
Another reason was most had nothing worth stealing.
@@davidmcintyre998 Yes, though that doesn't explain how my local S E London Newsvendor left his Evening News newspapers AND Moneybag out overnight on the pavement for people to buy their papers and he collected the money in the morning or how the local Council Rentman had(the equivalent of) £1,000 by the end of the day and weren't robbed or bus conductors carried cash on every journey without any problems that I can recall.
Please watch Educating Rita--another great Michael Caine movie.
This is a brilliant adaptation of a great book. The difference is that the daughter is actually the protagonist's (Michael Caine's) due to his affair with his brother's wife. Not a nice guy by any means - an archetype for anti-hero if ever there was one.
Such a classic. 2:18 A picture of *Newcastle United* our local football team. HOWAY THE LADS! 🖤🤍⚽️ #NUFC #Geordies
Mate now you've watched Get Carter next has gotta be The Long Good Friday (starring Bob Hoskins & Helen Mirren) 😊😊😊
Like you I watched this for the first time a few months ago, and have watched it again and it made more sense the second time. You pick up little details.
Although sometimes the word are used interchangeably, what the deadman is in is a coffin which has six sides where a casket has four sides. The dead man is in a coffin but that is not a casket.
This is one of like, three films set in my home town. It's this, I Daniel Blake, and then you're down to stuff like Stormy Monday.
Plus ‘GOAL!’ (2005) 🖤🤍
Classic. Uncompromising.
The ultimate early Michael Cane movie is 'Alfie' (1966), what a cad, what a movie. They redid the film starring Jude Law in 2004.
Not forgetting Zulu in 1964 .
Good review. Cool music. Cool Suit.
A much better ending than the 2000 remake.
If you lik Michael Caine, there are a few classics, The Italian Job, but one of his very first uncredited movies was he played a policeman in the Day the Earth Caught Fire.
In ended up in a couple of horror movies later on his career , Swarm and The Island and even was in a comedy with Alan Alda called Sweet Liberty .
The movie is based on the novel Jack's Return Home. There are three versions. This is the original. A blaxploitation version with Bernie Casey was made a year after this. The third and least, was a depressingly bad remake with Sylvester Stallone.
I've seen the remake with Sylvester Stallone but haven't seen this one before Michael Cane is a great actor
I think the algorithm just recommended this to me because my initials are OGB.
Hello fellow OGB 😁
The end scene on the beach is the same location used in the crash landing of the EEV in Alien 3.
You should see him in 'Hannah and Her Sisters' he won his first Oscar for that.... other 80s MUST see films: 'Terms of Endearment' 1983 Best Picture, 'Tootsie' from 1982 (Best Picture Nominee), 'An Officer and a Gentleman' from 1982, 'The Big Chill' from 1983.
Thanks for the video!! See you later!! Stay safe.😊
You should react to a movie called
The krays 1990
Starring Gary and Martin Kemp,
It's a true story about identical twin brothers
Ronnie and Reggie both professional boxers
One gay. One straight who ran London's underworld from the 50s to 1969. When they were arrested for murder
Reg spent the rest of his life in jail and Ron a violent paranoid schizophrenic spent the rest of his life in a mental institution,
Their story was later told in legend starring Tom hardy as both twins,
This version the krays 1990 is the best version of their story
Good reaction 👍
Making you watch a 70s British film about gangsters and abuse is nice of your patron 😄
There was a remake of this film in 2000 starring Sylvester Stallone, and it's one of the absolute low points of his career. The whole movie is a mess of flashy directing moves that the original film had no need of, and it completely misses the point by making Jack a fully sympathetic character who even lives at the end in a sequel hook that thankfully never went anywhere after the movie bombed. And most painful of all, Michael Caine is in it as Brumby, effortlessly acting Stallone off the screen every single time he shows up as he slips right back into this performance. It's just a shame it had to be surrounded by the rest of the movie.
Yes, a prime example of a remake gone wrong (and wasn't needed in the first place). Another similar example would be "The Taking Of Pelham 123".
BTW, if you are the Ryan that picked this one: Great choice. 👍
@@mrtveye6682 Yes, I am.
The movie implies that Doreen is Carter's daughter.
Much love for Ryans pick. Great movie, great soundtrack, and a movie unfortunately nobody seems to react (well, until now ofc 😉) too.
The 70s crime/thriller genre is so good with it's dry and gritty look and feel. There is the US stuff like "Magnum Force" + "French Connection", the French stuff like "Le Cercle Rouge" and for the British this one is a prime example.
I've always been going after great movies that no one seems to react to.
Drink up... Drink it!!
the music lovers good movie, so is the devils
I am more than twice your age and I had never heard of it before either.
#suggestion
This was an....uh, interesting Michael Caine movie. 🙄
I think you had difficulty getting into it. I can't blame you.
A couple of my favorite Michael Caine movies are, "The Ipcress File"(1965) a spy thriller, and then "Harry Brown"(2009) an action thriller. You should check them out!
It was just a little slow for the first good bit of it! But I got it overall :)
Michael Caine can't drive a car. The scenes of him driving were done with a double and good editing.
Oh wow 😂
my home city )
You could supposedly be more laisse fairer with locking your door supposedly in the UK in those days according to past generations🎩
If his brother's name is Carter then MC character also Carter🤔🎩
There was an American remake of this with Sylvester Stallone. Don't bother with it, rubbish compared to the original.
God help us when we have to watch people react to watching or listening to things as entertainment. We are scraping the barrel !
Then why are you here? Why are you on this video? Did you just so happen to randomly click my video just to comment this? Seems pretty pathetic to me.
Never heard of it?!?...Do not watch the Stallone Remake🎩
The novel on which the movie is based on in the end the character Jack winds up living but like you the director of this movie felt that there was basically no character in this movie was redeemable
