The credit for BLAST FROM THE PAST goes to Bill Kelly for writing the story (i.e. all the scenes from the film) and to Hugh Wilson and Bill Kelly from writing the screenplay (i.e. all the conversations of the film) 👍 Hugh Wilson went on to direct this film he wrote 😂
The funniest two lines in this entire movie are “Eve, the psychic pimp” and “Oh my lucky stars… a Negro”. I was born in 1984 the rural areas of the Midwest and when this movie came out I was taken aback and then laughed so hard. Each delivery being so innocent (like me at the time) yet so funny.
Brendon is so underrated. The fact that he could so believably carry such ridiculous movies and make them sweet, like this and Encino Man, and even George.
I couldn't agree with you more! The perfect example is the scene in George of the Jungle where he is out running with the horses and all the women are swooning and the guys are off to the side and say "I wonder what it is about women and horses" :-) he just has this way of bringing an innocents and charm to everything he does.
One Brendan Fraser movie I have not seen anywhere in this comment section is 'Airheads' with Steve Buscemi and Adam Sandler. Another is 'Encino Man' then one that got bat reviews, but Cassie might like is 'Dudley Do-Right'.
Oh, man. Carly missed out. This would have been a perfect sister reaction. This is a super-fun film that has actually aged pretty well and has a stellar cast. Thanks, Cass.
Cassie, if you liked this, you will LOVE "Bedazzled" with Brendan and Elizabeth Hurley. Same type of comedy, and Brendan's portrayal of multiple characters is one of his best acting jobs ever. Please please please put that on your list! I promise you will love it as much as you loved this one. Wonderful reaction by the way...as others have said below, Brendan and Alicia's chemistry is off the charts.
The true hidden talent in your videos is your editor. He knows the movies just like your audience does and doesn't miss any of the good moments of the movie. Most editors just use the reactors reactions, your editor uses the flow of the movie plus your reaction...your editor deserves much credit to the success of your posts. But Im sure you knew that already.
You're absolutely correct. Cassie's editor makes it look easy, when, in fact, it's not. You can tell when you watch other reactors and the poor editing jumps out at you.
On one channel, they were doing "Casablanca", and the scene where Captain Renault exclaims "I'm shocked, shocked to find gambling..." was completely cut out! Cassie's editor would never screw up that bad!
And the original BEDAZZLED with Dudley Moore and devilish Peter Cook is my favorite version but, you're right, Brendan is excellent in the remake. I hate doing without either devil, though - see both.
One of my faves is SCHOOL TIES. It’s a drama, not a rom-com but Brendan’s 1st-ish movie and his acting, even then, was sooo great! (Also has a roster of very famous, albeit young, actors.)
I was 19 when this came out, and part of the promotion of this movie was a swing dance competition to be part of the big swing dance scene, and a lot of my friends participated in the competition. So this movie gives me all the warm fuzzies for the memories alone.
I miss the 90's swing dance craze so much! I was about 17 when this came and my crush taught me how to flip like in the scene and i was so sore the next day but it was _worth it_
16:01 CLUELESS REFERENCE!!! Eve mentions being stuck in San Fernando Valley without a clue...In Clueless, Cher is stuck in Sun Valley, a neighborhood in the San Fernando Valley region 😍
My favorite scene is when Brenndan is sitting in the rain and Felicia walks up, and He says, "My father, who is a scientist; says that everything is a miracle..." Such a great outlook.
22:38 I think that the ocean scene was so tender because its Adam's first real interaction with Mother Nature. As he walks to embrace it with open arms you can see the waves coming toward him to do the same. 🌊🙋🏻♂️
@@martinboyle9163 Yes, Peter Cook and Dudley Moore. Dudley became such a solo star with "10" and "Arthur" that people forgot how good they were together.
Coming from southern Alberta in 1990s I watched this movie..... I have been telling everyone how important this movie was.....I'm glad someone from my homeland is spreading the good words!!!!
Brendan was so underrated as an actor, because these movies are a little silly, but his acting is so great in all of those movies. It was so great that he got a chance to show off his acting in The Whale and the result is we'll be getting a lot more Brendan Fraser.
The writer & director of this film also gifted us with WKRP in Cincinnati. So happy you enjoyed this forgotten gem. Carly would love this too. I don't think any of us would mind a double-dip reaction on this movie.
OMG! I just remembered that Hugh Wilson also wrote and directed "Rustler's Rhapsody"! Cassie MUST SEE that one. (If nothing else, so she can see Tom Berenger in something other than "Platoon", lol.)
3:27 I love the "ooh boy" as he quickly walks to the television. My grandfather would do the exact same thing if there was big news, or he'd go to the window if something was going on outside.
I love that it works because he’s so honest in this portrayal. If he mugged for the camera and played it for laughs I don’t think Adam would have worked, but Fraiser plays him with such vulnerability he not only gets the laugh but tears too.
Thank you so much for watching this movie. It is one of my all-time favorites! I knew you'd like it, too. You did an excellent job reacting to it. I'm still smiling that you enjoyed it so much.
This is definitely a movie that holds up with repeated viewing. I love this movie! He's done so many movies, I've not seen them all but some of my favourites that you haven't said you've seen are Encino Man, Airheads, Bedazzled, Journey to the Centre of the Earth and Inkheart. I don't know if you've seen Dudley Do-Right, it's pretty much the same tone as George of the Jungle, and it's also based off a cartoon. So it's kind of like they made Dudley Do-Right instead of making a sequel to George... It's goofy as all hell, but if you like George of the Jungle and haven't seen this... give it a try.
This is a very Cassie movie! Great reaction! Great cast I Luv Christopher Walken. Brendan & Alicia are great together! Thanks for watching this movie! Luv ya Cassie ❤💛🍿
Ahhhhh!!! I love this movie! And you're right about the little details. Adam's astonishment that Troy had a computer that can fit IN THE HOUSE. The way the mom bounces her knees with the dad when he's testing the elevator for the first time. The way she snatches the mug out from under the dad when he keels over, so that it won't spill. Adam's suit jacket matching the blanket on the bed when his dad says goodbye.
Has it been 24 years? I was in my 20's when I saw this movie. We all watched movies in the theatre. It was either a date, or simply hanging out with friends. Such easier times. We no longer "hang out" anymore. Now its Facebook and Instagram
Man! I wish I could dance like that! 😲Went to my 20 year class reunion and while setting with friends that I haven't seen in 20 years we all pointed out the high points of our memories. A buddy of mine told me he didn't understand how the teachers allowed it in Jr. High.... but I used to just go out on the dance floor, press my face into the shirt-fronts of the young ladies and leave them with a path of sucker-bights across their bossom! (I was that short! -My face was right in their chests.) I told him, "Well.... I can't dance!" Minutes later, I was on the dance floor of our reunion swinging with two women. I had one in each hand and was spinning them 'round, back and forth. It made quiite a scene and many others on the dance floor stopped to watch us going at it! When I came back from the dance floor, face wet and dripping in sweat, my buddy spoke up, "Thought you said you couldn't dance!" I shrugged my shoulders and tipped my head to one side, "Well," I told him, "I couldn't dance back then!" 😀A bit later in the night, I came back from the dance floor and told my table full of friends, "Ya know, with my epilepsy and these strobe lights, you just might see some real good break dancing tonight!" That old buddy of mine, now a physician, his eyes lit up, his jaw hung open and he gasped, "Oh! Heck yeah! We just take you out on that dance floor an'' spin you 'round!" He and I howled with laughter but the joke went over the heads of all the others. --Pulsing music and flashing lights are 2 common triggers for epileptic seizures! 🙂
Since you loved this movie so much; may I suggest another one of Brendan’s movies (if you haven’t already reacted to it) called BEDAZZLED starring him and Elizabeth Hurley! It’s another fun Rom-Com that I’m sure you’ll love just as much as this one!
In 1986 I left home to join the Army. Went from Ft. Benning straight to Germany. Got out there, married a local. Had kids. Went to work for German companies. Lived in Poland for a while. Stayed there until 2002. When I came home for the first time , THIS was the movie my brother showed me. Yes ... The Answer is "Yes"; Everything in this movie is Freaking true.
This movie is hilarious from beginning to end. Great characters, great acting, beautiful story, romance and just wholesome. I love seeing the actors almost break character in the scene where Brendan is running around the social worker and her coworker. You can see her and Alicia almost die laughing lol. Oh and the scene where he's dancing in the living room and then bumps Troy off... my grandma got a kick out of that scene 😅. Love it! Sissy Spacek and Christopher Walken were just sweet and awesome. Nathan Fillion is another fine actor. He's always a delight to watch. This movie is just plain awesome.
Excess Baggage is definitely an overlooked Alicia Silverstone film. She and Benicio Del Toro are currently in the film Reptiles together, and seeing them work together once again almost 30 years later is just an awesome treat. The chemistry is still there! Perhaps we will get to see her and Brendan work together again one day as well.
Has Carly seen this one? If not go watch it with her.... And your right. Had no business being this WHOLESOME of a movie that makes you smile. It always reminded me of PLEASANTVILLE that way.
The crazy thing is the other Brendan frasier film called Encino man could also have been called blast from the past because that was another classic 90s film where frasier plays a frozen caveman who gets dug up by teenagers
This is one of several movies that really showed how good an actor Brendan Frasier is, and I'm sure it's one of the reasons why he's had a recent cult following that demanded that he get back into acting, because he's brilliant, endearing, guys want to be him, and the ladies want to be with him.
My grandmother had one of those starburst wall clocks. It was the freaking loudest ticking clock I have heard even though it was down the hall in the front room it would still keep me up all night.
Another great Brenda Frasier movie is Bedazzled. He play so many different versions of his character in that film. What he does in it is amazing! Love that movie
Literally my favourite Brendan Fraser movie. The enthusiasm to which he attacks lines like The Sky! The music and comedy hits exceptionally well also. The soundtrack is amazing too. I actually felt jealous seeing you react to it.
I love the tiny parts of the movie: sissy spacek and Walken are amazing. He talks about the “multisex mutants of the urban wasteland” and she get stressed and runs to the kitchen to clean. Then when Fraser see the sky for the first time and no one can see what he sees… except the little girl who goes I see it (the sky). Foley parroting back to the angry state lady after her car is hit “it is important to stay calm”. Just really well cast, and you want them to be together.
Brenden Frasier is such an incredible talent. The Mummy series is great, but this is really my favorite movie of his. I am so glad to see he had a comeback recently. (edit: I hope your reaction gets other channels to check it out. I would also watch a second watch reaction from you for this one 🤣)
You MUST, MUST, MUST watch, “Late For Dinner”! A 1991 hidden gem of a movie. There’s a kind of similar vibe. It’s more adult, but just an absolute joy of a movie!!! ❤❤❤
THIS may be THE "Popcorn in Bed" movie of "Popcorn in Bed" movies. It is a completely ridiculous Rom Com. Good with chicken soup if you're sick. Walken and Spacek seal the deal.
I LOVE this movie. And my dad was from Christopher Walken's generation, so one day when he was pretty old, I brought the video over and we watched it together, and HE loved it. I'm glad you liked it too.
I got so excited when I saw you reacted to this movie. It is one of my favorites and not many people have reacted to it. I love all your reactions this is probably my favorite. I love how invested you got in the story. Brendan Fraser does such a great job in this role. You can really believe his character is experiencing everything for the first time. Alicia Silverstone is great in the opposition she's seen too much. The way they played off each other was so great and made the movie spectacular. I can't wait to watch your next reaction. Keep up the great work.
I swear, this is like the third time I've watched Cassie's reaction. Mostly because I love the movie, for all the reasons everyone else has said. But wow, Cassie's intensity toward the end, is infectious...."See it, see it..." It's that sort of reaction that draws me in, as that was somewhat my own feelings, at the time I first watched it.
Loved this movie, I don't know what it is with Brendan Fraser and his co-stars but he had the most amazing chemistry with them. This is, as others have said, very underrated. Thank you for the reminder of this awesome film. Great reaction as always.
An undervalued gem of a movie. Surprisingly few people even know about it, but perhaps it's getting more views since Fraser won the Oscar this year. Another one of his you might enjoy is "Bedazzled" (2000). I think you've already seen "The Mummy" (1999), but if not, that's a fantastic movie (skip the sequels tho)
Brendan Frasier is such a gem in this movie, I've watched it countless times and fall more in love with him each time 😭If you want more Brendan Frasier movies I highly recommend Bedazzled and Mrs. Winterbourne. The latter is more of a rom-com drama and not many people know about it but its very cute :)
Great choice! Another Brenden Frasier movie that seems to be a sleeper on UA-cam is the 2000 version of "Bedazzled" with Elizabeth Hurley. It is a hoot. Good job on this one. It's a very cute concept, the irony of which is recognized by someone whose dad had a bomb shelter in the backyard in the 60s.
The detail work here is incredible. From the matching interior (a set) that they create for Eve's Craftsman house, to Adam referring to "Larry 'Yogi' Berra" because that's how Yogi (who almost never used his given name) was listed on the baseball card. Also, I met Alicia Silverstone at the premiere party, but I was too awestruck to make any real conversation. Still pretty cool, though. (The studios cracked down on premiere and party-crashing after 9/11, which must have been a bummer. I had moved on by then, anyhow.) You've seen Joey Slotnick (Melker) before, in "Twister" and honestly his film career never really took off, but he was all over TV for a while.
This movie is so fun. I also really like Alicia and Christopher Walken in Excess Baggage (1997). Not wholesome like this, but still a fun romance. So glad you enjoyed this!
I love this movie, I'm sure you will too, it is delightful. Sissy Spacek is perfect as always. She is probably best known for Carrie (1976), and I recommend you watch the in the biopic Coal Miner's Daughter (1980) she does her own singing as the Loretta Lynn. I think for another movie based in the Cold War Era you would enjoy is Matinee (1993).
This is such a charming little under-the-radar film. I remember it was on cable all the time when I was younger and I always watched to the end. Everyone is great, but I really loved Dave Foley (of "The Kids in the Hall") as Alicia Silverstone's friend Troy - he's so great as the "voice of reason." lol
A few months ago I thought about this movie and was hoping so much you'd find it yourself. It's just such a lovely feel good movie and Brenden Fraser absolutely kills the part. Looked so much fun to film that role. I'm glad you enjoyed it!
When you watch it again - at the end when you see Eve's reflection in the window as she watches Adam's dad in the backyard, look carefully at what she is doing with her hands... Most people miss that detail. :)
For sure! I was 12 years old in `62. Riding my bicycle to our local shopping center where they had fall out shelters and Geiger counters with assorted food for survival was an eye opening experience . Yet I love this movie and also remember those times.
This reaction was worth it just for Cassie seeing Nathan Filion. Cassie, if you loved this, you would love "Tammy and the Bachelor" with Debbie Reynolds & Leslie Nielsen. On the Street Where You Live is another reason why you should watch, "My Fair Lady". Cassie, you are so sweet. Keep 'em coming!
The difference between this Cassie and the Cassie who watched 'IT', is like day and night. Great job Bright Angel, I hope you'll share more RomCom films with us in the future. Because they always make you laugh and smile - and your smile, you make life more beautiful.
They should do a sequel to this movie, Blast from The Future or something with the same cast while we still have them. I was one of those begging you to watch this and now you have and I am so happy with your reaction that I have to watch it again with you. Your response to Nathan Fillian was priceless and also the ocean scene.
My dad's favorite singer was Perry Como, the guy they were listening to in the car in the beginning of the film. I am older now and he has passed away but my parents were exactly from that era that Adams parents were from so this movie is one of my favorite ones.
It is so great every time you recognize classic movie references. You’ve learned so much in the past few years. On The Street Where You Live is from My Fair Lady which although archaic in its paternal foundations is still a great movie and worth watching if you haven’t already.
I love this movie. I love the change that Alicia's character makes. I love Sissy Spacek's character as well. Brendon is great. Also try Mrs. Winterborne.
I'm so glad you mentioned Mrs. Winterbourne! It never comes up in Brendan Fraser suggestions, but I've always thought it was a sweet movie. I even have it on DVD.
My wife was a Director of Nursing and took care of Sissy's mother. She said that Sissy was one of the nicest people she ever met. Not all of Hollywood is hateful and stupid.
Wonderful reaction Cassie. This would have been perfect for you and Carly to watch together. I adore this movie, and it's my favorite Brendan Fraser role. Though for next Spooky season, you should watch him in Bedazzled. He plays several fun characters in that. Another Alicia Silverstone movie for you to watch is Excess Baggage. Christopher Walken plays an Uncle type to her, but he's not as sweet as in this one. It's a fun movie made before her career tanked.
Can I just say this is a FANTASTIC sound track for this particular point in time! That small window when Swing music made a huge comeback but still mixed with the early grunge era. From this particular era you can put together a pretty epic mix tape: Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, Everclear, Offspring, many, many others!
I'd been struggling for years to remember the title of this movie. I remember just loving it and then it kind of faded away and disappeared. Thanks so much for the review and reminding me why it's such a great film.
This movie is so underrated, Brendan and Alicia have great chemistry, and Christopher Walken is awesome, as always!
Don't forget Sissy!! She was great.
@@susanalexander6721agreed 👍
The credit for BLAST FROM THE PAST goes to Bill Kelly for writing the story (i.e. all the scenes from the film) and to Hugh Wilson and Bill Kelly from writing the screenplay (i.e. all the conversations of the film) 👍 Hugh Wilson went on to direct this film he wrote 😂
Where is your sister ? Miss her for this !!
This story always gets my vote for Follow-Up Tale. See them 30 years later.
The funniest two lines in this entire movie are “Eve, the psychic pimp” and “Oh my lucky stars… a Negro”. I was born in 1984 the rural areas of the Midwest and when this movie came out I was taken aback and then laughed so hard. Each delivery being so innocent (like me at the time) yet so funny.
So you're beginning to understand why some of us who are older love Brendan Frasier so much.
I saw The Whale recently. It’s sooo not this. It’s dark and depressing, but Brendan’s performance is Oscar worthy.
While they're different kinds of movies, I love School Ties and With Honors.
@@mage1439airheads was good . I always liked him ❤
Encino man!!!! Wheezing the juice.
@@adamb5436 NO, Wheezing the juice!! lol

Okay, no. I'm definitely watching it right now.
Absolutely! Bedazzled is amazing. BF is a great actor, but I don’t think he was ever appreciated as much as he should have been.
Yes! It's hilarious! And actually some wise moments in it
@@lisaspikes4291At least he’s making a comeback with Doompatrol and the Whale. He was even going to be in that Batgirl movie but that got canned.

Most editors just use the reactors reactions, your editor uses the flow of the movie plus your reaction...your editor deserves much credit to the success of your posts.

You're absolutely correct. Cassie's editor makes it look easy, when, in fact, it's not. You can tell when you watch other reactors and the poor editing jumps out at you.
Editor shout out, YES!!!
*That's half the reason I think Popcorn in Bed is the best at this.* Psst, the other half is Cassie (and Carly) who keep it light and honest.

Troy is Dave Foley, former member of the Canadian comedy troupe Kids in the Hall.
This movie, The Mummy and Bedazzled were some PRIME Brenden Fraser movies for me back in the day.
And the original BEDAZZLED with Dudley Moore and devilish Peter Cook is my favorite version but, you're right, Brendan is excellent in the remake. I hate doing without either devil, though - see both.
See The Whale 🐳
His movie "With Honors" with Moira Kelly and Joe Pesci was good too.
Dont forget Monkeybone 🤣

There's something meta about ultra wholesome Cassie watching ultra wholesome Adam and being absolutely enthralled with him 😂
Was thinking the same thing. Lol
This movie reminds me of Cassie. The epitome of wholesome. Great reaction.
16:01 CLUELESS REFERENCE!!! Eve mentions being stuck in San Fernando Valley without a clue...In Clueless, Cher is stuck in Sun Valley, a neighborhood in the San Fernando Valley region 😍

If you loved Brendan Frasier in this? You need to see Bedazzled with him and Elizabeth Hurley.
Bedazzled is a riot. Hurley was SMOKIN, and Fraser had quite the ensemble of characters!
Yes! Definitely!
I like Bedazzled, and the original is just as funny! 😂
YES!!!

So so glad you loved it! As soon as I saw it coming up, I knew it was perfect for you!!! You should totally watch it again with your sister! 🥰❤️
YES! For the love of God and all that is holy, please watch this with your sister!!!!
Please wait until Carly is in town for a rewatch. I would love to see a reaction video of the two of you!
What they said! It’s worth a second,third,fourth watch etc etc and she would love it.
I would definte tune in for such a rewatch.
Brendan was so underrated as an actor, because these movies are a little silly, but his acting is so great in all of those movies.
It was so great that he got a chance to show off his acting in The Whale and the result is we'll be getting a lot more Brendan Fraser.
I agree with you. His role in the movie The Whale was outstanding. I bet that he would be awsome in another drama movies.
You will love the chemistry between Brendan and Alicia....
I'm glad you liked it. This is one of my favorite movies. Because in a cynical world, this is just so very, very sweet.
Thank you for the watch.
The writer & director of this film also gifted us with WKRP in Cincinnati.

Since it's that time of year, I'm going to recite the greatest line ever... "as God is my witness, I thought turkeys could fly."
Police Academy, too.
I NEVER saw this movie before, or even heard of it, but even just the edited version, I loved it. Your reaction was priceless.
Brendan was perfect for the part. He played it an authentically wholesome way.
"There's a song that Mister Como sings..." I love references to Mr. C.
3:27 I love the "ooh boy" as he quickly walks to the television. My grandfather would do the exact same thing if there was big news, or he'd go to the window if something was going on outside.
Brendan Fraser is a National Treasure. I love this movie so much.
"International Treasure"
(Hi, from Oz)
I love that it works because he’s so honest in this portrayal. If he mugged for the camera and played it for laughs I don’t think Adam would have worked, but Fraiser plays him with such vulnerability he not only gets the laugh but tears too.
Thank you so much for watching this movie. It is one of my all-time favorites! I knew you'd like it, too. You did an excellent job reacting to it. I'm still smiling that you enjoyed it so much.
a charming little 90s feature that can bring a smile to your face; cast is great, and always found Walken to be hysterical 😂
Think Cassie's ready for Mr. Walken in "The Deer Hunter" ?
@@kurtfrancis4621 Or "Brainstorm?"
This is definitely a movie that holds up with repeated viewing. I love this movie!
He's done so many movies, I've not seen them all but some of my favourites that you haven't said you've seen are Encino Man, Airheads, Bedazzled, Journey to the Centre of the Earth and Inkheart.
I don't know if you've seen Dudley Do-Right, it's pretty much the same tone as George of the Jungle, and it's also based off a cartoon. So it's kind of like they made Dudley Do-Right instead of making a sequel to George... It's goofy as all hell, but if you like George of the Jungle and haven't seen this... give it a try.
This is a very Cassie movie! Great reaction! Great cast I Luv Christopher Walken. Brendan & Alicia are great together! Thanks for watching this movie! Luv ya Cassie ❤💛🍿
Blast from the Past and Bedazzled were my favorite movies for a while. Young Brendan Fraser was awesome.
One of my favorite movies. Never fails to make me smile 😁
Me neither, I especially love that whole dancing scene 😁
Ahhhhh!!! I love this movie! And you're right about the little details. Adam's astonishment that Troy had a computer that can fit IN THE HOUSE. The way the mom bounces her knees with the dad when he's testing the elevator for the first time. The way she snatches the mug out from under the dad when he keels over, so that it won't spill.

I shrugged my shoulders and tipped my head to one side, "Well," I told him, "I couldn't dance back then!" 😀A bit later in the night, I came back from the dance floor and told my table full of friends, "Ya know, with my epilepsy and these strobe lights, you just might see some real good break dancing tonight!" That old buddy of mine, now a physician, his eyes lit up, his jaw hung open and he gasped, "Oh! Heck yeah! We just take you out on that dance floor an'' spin you 'round!" He and I howled with laughter but the joke went over the heads of all the others. --Pulsing music and flashing lights are 2 common triggers for epileptic seizures! 🙂
Since you loved this movie so much; may I suggest another one of Brendan’s movies (if you haven’t already reacted to it) called BEDAZZLED starring him and Elizabeth Hurley! It’s another fun Rom-Com that I’m sure you’ll love just as much as this one!
This Movie was Amazing, the Whole Concept and Script was Genius and Original, and how a guy who’s never interacted with a woman had so much Rizz😆👏🏻
Manners, competency and being freaking rich go a long way with women...
@@fredfredburger5150 in this Present day, women don’t want Nice guys😞
This one is great but honestly bedazzled is an unbelievable underrated movie and it’s so funny 😂. You two have to watch it together!!
2 of my favorite movies
Bedazzled is really cute, and it made me fall in love with the song change your mind by sister hazel.
Wow, I've completely forgot Nathan Fillion was in this movie! And yeah, it's really a great one, glad you enjoyed it
In 1986 I left home to join the Army. Went from Ft. Benning straight to Germany. Got out there, married a local. Had kids. Went to work for German companies. Lived in Poland for a while. Stayed there until 2002. When I came home for the first time , THIS was the movie my brother showed me. Yes ... The Answer is "Yes"; Everything in this movie is Freaking true.
This movie is hilarious from beginning to end. Great characters, great acting, beautiful story, romance and just wholesome. I love seeing the actors almost break character in the scene where Brendan is running around the social worker and her coworker. You can see her and Alicia almost die laughing lol. Oh and the scene where he's dancing in the living room and then bumps Troy off... my grandma got a kick out of that scene 😅. Love it! Sissy Spacek and Christopher Walken were just sweet and awesome. Nathan Fillion is another fine actor. He's always a delight to watch. This movie is just plain awesome.
Excess Baggage is definitely an overlooked Alicia Silverstone film. She and Benicio Del Toro are currently in the film Reptiles together, and seeing them work together once again almost 30 years later is just an awesome treat. The chemistry is still there! Perhaps we will get to see her and Brendan work together again one day as well.
Has Carly seen this one? If not go watch it with her....
And your right. Had no business being this WHOLESOME of a movie that makes you smile. It always reminded me of PLEASANTVILLE that way.
when he experiences rain for the first time is one of my favorite movie scenes
I clicked on this video SO fast. This is such an underrated film. Saw it when it first came out. It's so sweet. Glad you enjoyed it
My family & I have enjoyed this movie for many years. It's for sure so well cast, especially Sissy Spacek and Christopher Walken!
The crazy thing is the other Brendan frasier film called Encino man could also have been called blast from the past because that was another classic 90s film where frasier plays a frozen caveman who gets dug up by teenagers
@user-yz1id7wc7q"No squeezing the juice."
This is one of several movies that really showed how good an actor Brendan Frasier is, and I'm sure it's one of the reasons why he's had a recent cult following that demanded that he get back into acting, because he's brilliant, endearing, guys want to be him, and the ladies want to be with him.
One of the most underrated jokes of the whole movie is Adam thinking Eve speaks French because the first word he hears her say is "shit."
My grandmother had one of those starburst wall clocks. It was the freaking loudest ticking clock I have heard even though it was down the hall in the front room it would still keep me up all night.
This film brings me back to the good old days with my beloved parents…this was my dad’s favorite !
Another great Brenda Frasier movie is Bedazzled. He play so many different versions of his character in that film. What he does in it is amazing! Love that movie
Literally my favourite Brendan Fraser movie. The enthusiasm to which he attacks lines like The Sky! The music and comedy hits exceptionally well also. The soundtrack is amazing too. I actually felt jealous seeing you react to it.
I love the tiny parts of the movie: sissy spacek and Walken are amazing. He talks about the “multisex mutants of the urban wasteland” and she get stressed and runs to the kitchen to clean. Then when Fraser see the sky for the first time and no one can see what he sees… except the little girl who goes I see it (the sky). Foley parroting back to the angry state lady after her car is hit “it is important to stay calm”.
Just really well cast, and you want them to be together.
Brenden Frasier is such an incredible talent. The Mummy series is great, but this is really my favorite movie of his. I am so glad to see he had a comeback recently. (edit: I hope your reaction gets other channels to check it out. I would also watch a second watch reaction from you for this one 🤣)
You MUST, MUST, MUST watch, “Late For Dinner”! A 1991 hidden gem of a movie. There’s a kind of similar vibe. It’s more adult, but just an absolute joy of a movie!!! ❤❤❤
THIS may be THE "Popcorn in Bed" movie of "Popcorn in Bed" movies. It is a completely ridiculous Rom Com. Good with chicken soup if you're sick. Walken and Spacek seal the deal.
I LOVE this movie. And my dad was from Christopher Walken's generation, so one day when he was pretty old, I brought the video over and we watched it together, and HE loved it. I'm glad you liked it too.
I got so excited when I saw you reacted to this movie. It is one of my favorites and not many people have reacted to it. I love all your reactions this is probably my favorite. I love how invested you got in the story. Brendan Fraser does such a great job in this role. You can really believe his character is experiencing everything for the first time. Alicia Silverstone is great in the opposition she's seen too much. The way they played off each other was so great and made the movie spectacular. I can't wait to watch your next reaction. Keep up the great work.
“THE SON HAS SPOKEN!!!”
*chanting “Leave my elevator alone… Leave my elevator alone…” 🤣🤣🤣 That killed me!
This is one of my all-time favorite movies! You should watch Pleasantville with Tobey Maguire. Also an excellent movie from this time
Awesome movie. Tobey Maguire was the perfect casting for it.
I swear, this is like the third time I've watched Cassie's reaction. Mostly because I love the movie, for all the reasons everyone else has said. But wow, Cassie's intensity toward the end, is infectious...."See it, see it..." It's that sort of reaction that draws me in, as that was somewhat my own feelings, at the time I first watched it.
I got so excited seeing this about to premiere. It's one of my favorite movies of all time.
Loved this movie, I don't know what it is with Brendan Fraser and his co-stars but he had the most amazing chemistry with them. This is, as others have said, very underrated. Thank you for the reminder of this awesome film. Great reaction as always.
An undervalued gem of a movie. Surprisingly few people even know about it, but perhaps it's getting more views since Fraser won the Oscar this year. Another one of his you might enjoy is "Bedazzled" (2000). I think you've already seen "The Mummy" (1999), but if not, that's a fantastic movie (skip the sequels tho)
I didn’t know he won, but I’m glad to hear it! The Whale was amazing!
"Street Where You Live" was written for the musical "My Fair Lady".
Brendan Frasier is such a gem in this movie, I've watched it countless times and fall more in love with him each time 😭If you want more Brendan Frasier movies I highly recommend Bedazzled and Mrs. Winterbourne. The latter is more of a rom-com drama and not many people know about it but its very cute :)
Oh, Cassie's going to love this little comedy!
In Germany the Film is called:
Eve and the last Gentleman
Great choice! Another Brenden Frasier movie that seems to be a sleeper on UA-cam is the 2000 version of "Bedazzled" with Elizabeth Hurley. It is a hoot. Good job on this one. It's a very cute concept, the irony of which is recognized by someone whose dad had a bomb shelter in the backyard in the 60s.
The detail work here is incredible. From the matching interior (a set) that they create for Eve's Craftsman house, to Adam referring to "Larry 'Yogi' Berra" because that's how Yogi (who almost never used his given name) was listed on the baseball card.
Also, I met Alicia Silverstone at the premiere party, but I was too awestruck to make any real conversation. Still pretty cool, though. (The studios cracked down on premiere and party-crashing after 9/11, which must have been a bummer. I had moved on by then, anyhow.)
You've seen Joey Slotnick (Melker) before, in "Twister" and honestly his film career never really took off, but he was all over TV for a while.
I missed this movie when it came out. Saw it for the first time a couple of years ago and thought it was great. An underrated gem IMO.
Sometimes when I'm gloomy, I go on youtube and watch just the ocean scene. Finally seeing somebody tearing up like me, that was special.
The sunrise scene from Pride and Prejudice is good for that as well.
I love this movie so much, and am sure that you will also! Can’t wait.
This movie is so fun. I also really like Alicia and Christopher Walken in Excess Baggage (1997). Not wholesome like this, but still a fun romance. So glad you enjoyed this!
I love this movie, I'm sure you will too, it is delightful.
Sissy Spacek is perfect as always. She is probably best known for Carrie (1976), and I recommend you watch the in the biopic Coal Miner's Daughter (1980) she does her own singing as the Loretta Lynn.
I think for another movie based in the Cold War Era you would enjoy is Matinee (1993).
My wife and I have loved this movie since we first saw it in the theaters way back then. I am so glad you liked it!
I used to watch this all the time growing up, without ever actually realizing that it's technically a romcom.
Brendan is one of the best actors to watch. The whole film is well done with notable actors. A happy ending. A touching story and a fabulous reaction.
This is such a charming little under-the-radar film. I remember it was on cable all the time when I was younger and I always watched to the end. Everyone is great, but I really loved Dave Foley (of "The Kids in the Hall") as Alicia Silverstone's friend Troy - he's so great as the "voice of reason." lol
Agreed. I love the sass he puts in the line "Can he skate around your block? A couple of LAPS?"
Brendan is always a pleasure to watch! A few of my favorites are Encino Man, Mrs Winterbourne, and Bedazzled. ❤ ~Caroline
Definitely Mrs. Winterbourne!! Cassie, please watch it with Carly if you possibly can. You'll both love it!
Yes this is a must, Mrs Winterbourne is one of my favorites!!!
A few months ago I thought about this movie and was hoping so much you'd find it yourself. It's just such a lovely feel good movie and Brenden Fraser absolutely kills the part. Looked so much fun to film that role. I'm glad you enjoyed it!
When you watch it again - at the end when you see Eve's reflection in the window as she watches Adam's dad in the backyard, look carefully at what she is doing with her hands... Most people miss that detail. :)
She has an engagement ring! Thanks for pointing out that. 👍
This is one of my favorite movies. Has a lot of nostalgia value for me, having grown up in the Cold War era.
For sure! I was 12 years old in `62. Riding my bicycle to our local shopping center where they had fall out shelters and Geiger counters with assorted food for survival was an eye opening experience . Yet I love this movie and also remember those times.
This reaction was worth it just for Cassie seeing Nathan Filion.
Cassie, if you loved this, you would love "Tammy and the Bachelor" with Debbie Reynolds & Leslie Nielsen. On the Street Where You Live is another reason why you should watch, "My Fair Lady".
Cassie, you are so sweet. Keep 'em coming!
This is the definition of a true feel good movie. Glad you reacted to this, it was fun to watch.
The difference between this Cassie and the Cassie who watched 'IT', is like day and night. Great job Bright Angel, I hope you'll share more RomCom films with us in the future. Because they always make you laugh and smile - and your smile, you make life more beautiful.
They should do a sequel to this movie, Blast from The Future or something with the same cast while we still have them. I was one of those begging you to watch this and now you have and I am so happy with your reaction that I have to watch it again with you. Your response to Nathan Fillian was priceless and also the ocean scene.
My dad's favorite singer was Perry Como, the guy they were listening to in the car in the beginning of the film. I am older now and he has passed away but my parents were exactly from that era that Adams parents were from so this movie is one of my favorite ones.
I really miss movies like this. We get very few of them nowadays.
Whenever I see this movie I always think Pleasantville. They came out around the same time and both very memorable. Is that on the list somewhere?? 😊
I love this movie. Brendan Fraser has that goofy charm, and the chemistry between him and Alicia Silverstone is palpable. Dave Foley is terrific, too.
It is so great every time you recognize classic movie references. You’ve learned so much in the past few years.
On The Street Where You Live is from My Fair Lady which although archaic in its paternal foundations is still a great movie and worth watching if you haven’t already.
I love this movie. I love the change that Alicia's character makes. I love Sissy Spacek's character as well. Brendon is great. Also try Mrs. Winterborne.
I'm so glad you mentioned Mrs. Winterbourne! It never comes up in Brendan Fraser suggestions, but I've always thought it was a sweet movie. I even have it on DVD.
My wife was a Director of Nursing and took care of Sissy's mother. She said that Sissy was one of the nicest people she ever met. Not all of Hollywood is hateful and stupid.
Wonderful reaction Cassie. This would have been perfect for you and Carly to watch together. I adore this movie, and it's my favorite Brendan Fraser role. Though for next Spooky season, you should watch him in Bedazzled. He plays several fun characters in that.
Another Alicia Silverstone movie for you to watch is Excess Baggage. Christopher Walken plays an Uncle type to her, but he's not as sweet as in this one. It's a fun movie made before her career tanked.
Can I just say this is a FANTASTIC sound track for this particular point in time! That small window when Swing music made a huge comeback but still mixed with the early grunge era. From this particular era you can put together a pretty epic mix tape: Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, Everclear, Offspring, many, many others!
This is one of those hidden gem movies. 😊
I think you're the first I've seen react to this. It's just fun. Great reaction.
I've been watching you react to movies for a couple of years now and I think this is the first time I could actually see the enjoyment in your face.
This was a pleasure to watch this in the cinema and I hope you enjoy it.
I'd been struggling for years to remember the title of this movie. I remember just loving it and then it kind of faded away and disappeared. Thanks so much for the review and reminding me why it's such a great film.
