I find it hard to believe Doug did that and didn't expect people to now want that XD
It's a bad movie, but you got to hand it to them, this is probably the most successful con in American cinema history. Literally EVERY kid in America thought this was a movie about a talking Kangaroo, and that's why it was so financially successful. They fooled everyone with the advertising because the mirage scene with the rapping kangaroo was the only thing in every single trailer. It was a massive con, but it worked great and I gotta give them props for that.
100% accurate.
We were all played for fucking fools.........................
In the same way I thought Snow Dogs was gonna have talking dogs in it. I was a fucking fool when I was younger.
Frisbee Snow Dogs was funnier than this
which was EXACTLY what snow dogs did!
AND I HATE BOTH MOVIES FOR THIS LIE
and least the sequel actually had more fantasy sequences
This movie actually won the 2004 Kids Choice Award for Best Fart.
That is the only award it has on Wikipedia.
Real sht?
Ah 2004 the best year of all.
I heard it was also nominated for even worse than the Star Wars prequels. Only to be beaten by son of the mask.
Either they let a bunch of brats come up with the awards or the adults who were doing it were acting like brats... Either way, the fact that this anus turkey was given any credit is a sin against the human race...
Jonathan Wright Holy crap its true!!
This was supposed to be a Mafia movie? Did Shark Tale take notes outta this?
That explains a lot.
Nope
Wouldn't be surprised if that were the case.
Atleast Shark Tale was tolerable
do the creators of this movie realize that getting kicked in the chest by an adult kangaroo can easily kill you due to the large claws located on their hind legs which are designed to disembowel opponents.
Just the kinetic force alone is enough to cave your chest.
They could not figure out a cheese sandwich
Death is funny that’s why they made a movie so bad it makes people kill themselfs
The movie is in a realm where no one can die unless they kill themselves which is why we never see most of the characters again in the film
It's not a real kangaroo
Man, I was so pissed when I saw this as a kid. I expected the freakin' kangaroo to speak the whole movie, but nope.
mattomoros Same
mattomoros same
I had just suppressed all other memories from the movie so I could continue with my life without major mental scarring.
Omg me too lol. The commercials made it seem like that.
And he was barely in the damn movie
"Slay the maiden and save the dragon."
Okay, that was probably the best line screw-up I've ever heard.
Definitely wasn't a screw-up.
Then Doug owes you $10
Mista G Not Mista J I
ShiningSpear How is it not a screw up?
He was referring to Louis as a person that screws things up all the time because the job went south. But it is a running joke in the film that this particular mafioso has speech problems. @@robbiewalker2831
"I once knew two mice. They fell into a bucket of Cream"
Best line spoken.
I don't get it.
@@hongxiuquan69 Me either.
@@hongxiuquan69 I think Catch Me If You Can
Nah the best line goes to a kangaroo repeating chicken blood in what is claimed as a family movie.
"The lesson is never fall into a bucket of cream!"
I got this in my stocking at eight years old. When I put it in to watch it, I was so uncomfortable I shut it off. I handed it to my parents and said “this is not for kids.” I was so mad at Saint Nick for getting me the wrong movie that my parents told me that there’s no such thing as Santa Claus.
This story is freaking wild
you poor child
Man that must have been a sucky Christmas
Wow....that really sucks....
😮
Gotta get back. Back to the Outback
Back to the Outback, Kangaroo Jack
Wacha!!!!
this movie is a guilty pleasure

Long ago in a distant land, I, Cukabura, the shapeshifting master of darkness, unleashed UNSPEAKABLE tourists, but a foolish Kangaroo Warrior stepped forth to oppose me.
I feel bad for all the actors who agreed to a completely different film and then had a cgi rapping kangaroo crammed in
BadPeople1100 doesn't mean what they worked on wasn't shit
BadPeople1100 can't say I have
Danny Hatake it was a thing
I know, I think the Mafia stuff could've been interesting, in a "so bad it's good" kinda of way.
“I’m a hairdresser” I think it’s meant to imply that he has really steady hands so he’s confident he won’t miss
Fair enough
And without any context, this made any regular joe understand it as "I'm a sissy" back in the day.
I took it as a joke that he worked in a very unintimidating field, but f*k you, I've got a shotgun
My elementary school teacher would actually play this movie on Friday if we behaved.
Interesting fact; this movie was actually based on an urban legend about two Bosten college students on spring break in Australia and they put a Boston Red Sox jacket on a kangaroo.
Good to know.
The farting camels scene won a Kids Choice Award for best animal performance in a film, and they actually brought the actors out on stage riding them.
I don't wanna live in this planet anymore
Did that actually happen?
This kind of shit is why aliens don't talk to us.
2003 ladies and gentlemen.
Just goes to show you; kids are horrible.
this is a joke right ?

Damn it Doug.
I specifically remember seeing a commercial when this movie came out and thinking "wow that sounds really stupid"
This movie came out in 2003.
I was 6.
AllIntensivePorpoises I think I saw it back in ‘03 and course I was a kid. I’ve gotten smarter than that
Same, and I was just born
I was -3
I was nearly 2. I didn’t see this movie until I was 15.
I wasn’t even born yet, and I distinctly remember thinking “god that sounds stupid”.
This movie feels like a mix between an adult mafia drama and a 2000s CGI kids talking animal/creature/cartoon character film.
That’s because it was filmed as a rated R film. The Kangaroo was very liked at screen testing and then they added more of the kangaroo and made it rated PG.
Christopher Walken didn't say the line wrong, "I have no doubt you would slay the maiden and save the dragon." He's saying that the two main characters are such fuck ups that in that medieval situation they would do everything wrong.
He also slayed Natalie Wood
@@oliviaeiler7595 except he didnt. You people are sick
You're thinking of Robert Wagner.@@oliviaeiler7595
To be fair on the "I'm a hairdresser" line, I think I know what they were trying to do. He was expecting him to say that he does something dangerous for a living that requires bravery, but instead he says he does something completely ordinary that doesn't require any kinda bravery. Which means him acting so courageous is something natural that he just has. Basically the idea of a hairdresser showing that he has balls enough to stand up to a gangster is more impressive and leaves a much bigger impression then, say, a cop doing the same thing. Still doesn't make the line good. But at least there was a point to it.
James G That doesn't make any sense though. Anybody would feel tough if they had the gun in that situation. There was no bravery with that action.
Even as a kid, I knew that was the point, especially when Louis warned him not to answer.
Maybe they were trying to do a shared universe with Adam Sandler's "You Don't Mess with the Zohan"
I thought it was "I have nothing else to live for, I'm a fucking hairdresser!"
Scissor skills?
I like how the _Kangaroo Jack_ review starts with "Start Halloween Right".
For some reason, the Kangaroo rapping and the kangaroos chanting "Chicken Blood" has me laughing VERY hard.
Were they high when they thought of that line
Did I mention this won a "Best Fart" award at the Kids Choice awards?
I just figured this out, I do not believe they actually did that category.
There's a "best fart" category ?.. Yup mankind is messed up [flies to mars]
Eren Yeager Don't know actually
Garotão Abobado That's why NK wants to demolish us.
Tigrus879 if this isn't a joke, then how did we get here?
Initially the film's screenplay was titled "Down and Under" and was described as a mafia comedy in the style of Midnight Run.[2] The film was shot in Australia in August 2001, however when the producers saw test footage they realized that the film as it was cut didn't work.[2] Inspired by early test screenings and the marketing campaign behind the recently released Snow Dogs,[2] the production shifted the marketing focus away from that of a mafia comedy movie to that of an animal picture. New footage was shot including replacing the animatronic kangaroo with a new CGI one and getting him to rap and the film was edited to be much more family friendly.[2]
IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW.
And from IMDb: "Trailers for the movie emphasized the tacked-on "talking kangaroo" scene, which gave audiences a false impression that this was a family film involving a talking kangaroo. Posters also emphasized the kangaroo. The misleading publicity is often credited with the film's achieving the #1 box office spot on opening weekend; industry observers said later that if the film had been more honestly portrayed as what it was, as a gangster comedy with fairly adult humor, it probably would have failed. The film had dismal reviews from critics and considerable backlash from audiences who felt they had been tricked. There was a direct-to-DVD sequel that was more in line with what was promised by trailers, as it was an animated family comedy. "
Wait how does snow dogs tie into this...did they just repeatedly use the beach dream sequence in the adverts to make it look the dogs talked I expect that kinda shit from the makers of Kangaroo Jack but not Disney especially since a comedy about a guy trying to learn how to use huskies isn't that hard to sell to kids who love dogs
The movie was originally PG-13 and the "Chicken Blood" line was originally "Chicken Shit", which would have made more sense as a line.
ZuperNEZ
Wow, their attempt at making the line more kid-friendly actually made it way worse. "Chicken Shit" sounds like something a schoolyard bully might say, "Chicken Blood" sounds like the beginning of a satanic ritual.
This movie doesn't seem very "kid-friendly".🤨🤨🤨
Maybe that was the intent 🤔
Cause it wasn't originallyy suposed to
The movie may not work as family-picture, but it definitely works as a comedy aimed more towards adults.
A lot of live-action "kids" movies around that era weren't really kid friendly, they were more family movies than anything.
But, but, farting camels.
How did Doug manage to tear that Samurai Jack picture so evenly in half?
He must be a hairdresser
The magic of editing
Printer paper like that is really easy to tear evenly if you go top to bottom. I think it’s how it’s formed. If you try tearing it from the sides, it’s a mess.
You should review Hotel For Dogs
Marty Mcfly yes!!!
Marty Mcfly this comment needs one thousand up votes immediately.
yeah
Yep
Marty Mcfly ii
You owe us a Samurai Jack retrospective now, Doug. And an apology for what you did to that poster.
The part about the talking kangaroo commercials, that was an understatement. I remember every commercial pushing that so hard, you would think the whole movie was just that one scene. I remember one where a kid finds a Kangaroo Jack DVD and says, "Whoa, Kangaroo Jack! This guy can talk!" because they REALLY wanted to push that one minute scene for some odd reason. I don't even believe he talks ever again throughout the whole movie.
To be honest, the animated spin-off isn't that bad.
the animation does look good
I have more fond memories of watching that one over this.
the animated spin off is better than the live action movie
That is a sequel not a spin-off.
That's because it has the advantage of being animated.
up until the very day i watched this i thought this movie was about a hip hop kangaroo
jesus those trailers were misleading
It was a great and terrible marketing scheme. We ALL thought it was about a hip hop kangaroo. Everyone. Even the people who were told it has nothing to do with a talking kangaroo. They'd just say "But the commercials are so CLEARLY about a hip hop kangaroo!" and they'd watch it anyway. And then they'd say the exact same thing, but infinitely more disappointed.
@@TOSkwar22 The movie was financially successful because of those trailers. I'm wondering if Warner Bros. could get sued for false advertising.
I needed this today.
saaaaame
ikr
Hey zamination you watch nostalgia critic :O
I don't think there is a person alive who DIDN'T need some
yes
"I new two mice, they fell into a bucket of cream"
Love Rob's Walken inpression
I remember when I was a kid and the trailer had the rapping part and I really wanted to see the movie because I thought the kangaroo could talk. I was never so dissapointed in my entire childhood.
I'm pretty certain that the actual "Kangaroo Jack" plot of the film was inspired by an urban legend where a couple of tourists run over a kangaroo with their car. They of course decide that the most logical thing to do is to prop it up against their car, and have it wear one of their expensive jackets. The kangaroo is only stunned, and not at all happy to be given the "Weekend at Bernie's" treatment, so he kicks one of the idiots over and hops off--still wearing the jacket--which of course has the fool's car keys/wallet/other valuables you could possibly think of.
Very informational

What makes me upset the most is that Bill Hunter was in this movie, one of the best actors in Australia! Sad that he passed away in 2011 :(

Sebas7710 he needs to get rid of the hate and disappointment he’s about to feel with pain. I mean, imagine you were told by accident that you were going to watch samurai jack, but then a friend of yours corrected himself by saying you’re going to watch Kangaroo jack. How would you feel?
Sebas7710 exactly
Nice.
BUT THERE IS A 6TH ACTION:Reviewing Kangoroo Jack
SAMURAI JACK SEASON 6 CONFIRMED
The trailer for this movie got me soo bad as a kid. Kept waiting for the talking kangaroo to show up.
Stryker1500 Same
Yep. I still remember the disappointment I felt when I found out he only spoke once and it was during a hallucination. And I was always a pretty easy kid to please when it came to movies.
Stryker1500 For some reason, I never quite fell for that enough to be disappointed.
I was easy to please.
Stryker1500 I never saw the movie but I always thought Kangaroo Jack was about a talking kangaroo...
Same. Felt like the worst rip-off.
God, it's like a combination of Scooby Doo and Garfield. Call it Scarfield. Of the mental variety.
Scarfield sounds more like what would happen if an obese feline played Tony Montana.
Don't you mean Garface?
This town is like a great big lasagna just waitin' to get eaten
Mashup of Scooby Doo and Garfield sounds about right. It indeed did turn up a field of doo doo.
Tai Wind hahahha
I remember this airing on commercials all the time. My school played the first 20-30 of the movie before the bell rang and never saw the rest. I understand it was the opening and they were building up to the star attraction. Little did I know.
It was a few years ago, I finally found out the dancing talking Kangaroo shown in all the commercials was only in one small scene during that one guy's dreams.
I was in total shock that everything we saw was a lie. I feel angry to the deceiving marketing. I feel sorry for all the kids that went to the theater to see a dancing kangaroo and it turns out was the movie was nothing but those two bozos.
The animated sequel looks alot better because it looks like what people wanted to actually see, a movie focusing on a dancing talking kangaroo.

Someone tell me i'm not the only one who wants him to review samurai jack
Yeah, Even when I clicked on this video fully aware of the title, I still rather see the NC review Samurai Jack.
I want too
TBH It'd be really nice to see him do more reviews of some nicer films or "Okay/Harmless" films again. And I'd kinda like "Was That Real?" to come back xD
He seemed so hyped about it too
Mighty Raccoon Because Naruto is poison.
This movie always confused me, beacause...you know, I thought a talking kangaroo was the main character
Doug...every story in my life worth telling started with the words “Louis and I.”
I used to see this movie all the time when I was younger and I always rented it in Blockbuster
I'm so sorry
I had NO IDEA what I was smoking to be in a phase to even tolerate this film... and I've NEVER smoked.
Angel- Movie and Marvel Maniac. It still better than the sequel
Angel- Movie and Marvel Maniac. Blockbuster is now just a Memory
All I remember from this movie is the scene where the chubby guy falls down a trash can and the part where the kangaroo eats a fireball.
That's all you need, really.
I'm really surprised they didn't find a place for Michael Shannon's "I WILL FIND HIM!" line from Man of Steel in here. I was waiting for it.
KC reviews I was too.
Critic dropped the ball.
Funny thing is, this was gonna be an R rated crime comedy movie similar to Midnight Run. It was originally called “Down and Under.” The producer saw potential as a kid movie. That’s why they added the extra kangaroo scenes. Jerry O’Connell and Anthony Anderson said they were shocked that a lot of the adult humor was cut.
I watched this when I was younger and I forgot pretty much everything about this movie except for the Kangaroo rapping. Now I see why.
I'm half Australian/half British, but currently living in America. During my time here, I've met some people that have completely ridiculous ideas about what Australia is like. I am 105% sure that this movie was made exclusively by those people. My soul hurts...
Even before all that, there was Rescuers Down Under, and before that there was Steve Irwin, and before that there was Crocodile Dundee. And before that, there were regular Australians. Now at least you gave us Hugh Jackman, and for that we thank you.
could both of you gvie me details of how is austalia. i have been wanting to write an australian character, in a thing of comic book esque i have wanted to write some years ago when i was in middle school (i procrastinate), but i wanted details about it. question one, is a female character who can turn into any animal, ANY ANIMAL who at first was afraid of animals and her nationality is australian racist right? if it is, then i will change her nationality
Ian R. Nava Huber Erm I don't see how that's racist. And Australia is very different based on which part you live in, so I can't exactly give a definite answer to what they're like
Meanwhile in Australia: what dickheads made, this

One of the writers worked on Venom (2018). Probably explains the lack luster and generic story in that movie, but at least it was a kind of funny movie. Yes... VENOM IS A MUCH BETTER COMEDY THAN KANGAROO JACK!
A child’s funeral is a better comedy than kangaroo jack.
Venom's a comedy?
@@hongxiuquan69 It's believed that it was meant to be a horror movie but was made PG-13 to attract a wider audience. It still has moments of levity through Tom Hardy's frazzled performance.
It’s a sad day today because the writer of this movie died from suicide because of quarantine. R.I.P Steve Bing 🙏
I despised this movie as a kid for tricking me into thinking it was actually about the kangaroo. I remember wanting to walk out when I realized the real kangaroo couldn't talk, and being embarrassed that I made my mom pay for it and watch it with me. It betray me and make me fed up with this world.
They didn't keep their promise. They tricked me and I don't care anymore.

Well, maybe because CGI has come a long way since then.

i watched it in cable. the latin american dub voice acting is actually good. not enough to save the movie, but makes it watchable.
I know right? LatAm dubbing makes a lot of stuff 10x better! (I'm mexican)
But still... this was just waaaaay beyond watchable for me.

Amazing how This movie is called Kangoro Jack, since the Kangoro Jack only appears in five minutes in the entire movie.
Between this and Snow Dogs, I remember being very confused rewatching both movies years later and seeing that the animals never actually talk outside of dream sequences and the rest is a forgettable movie.
TheZman64 WHOOO LET THE DOGS OUT
WHO-WHO-WHO-WHO
TheZman64 what's Snow dogs?
That still upsetted me.
Remember watching them in the first play specifically for talking dogs and kangaroos going on adventures while humans where in the background.
The chicken blood thing is legitamately terrifying
legends say if you look into a mirror and say chicken blood three times kangaroo jack appears
It is. I was creeped out.
Maybe the "Chicken Blood" scene was what Dante really saw at the 11th level of Hell, but he found it so terrifying that he replaced it with a guy shoving grapes in his nose and constantly shouting "Bloopity! Bloopity! Bloopity! Bloopity!" just to ease the pain of his readers a little bit.
Now that I think about it, imagine the baby Arnold Schwarzenegger shouting "Momma", the Bloopity guy, and Chicken Blood Kangaroos all appearing at the foot of your bed at night.
kangaroo Jack should’ve been as a violent mafia film instead of a family friendly kids film.
the title names for the film should’ve been called "Death Down Under" or "Devil in the Outback"
NOT "Kangaroo Jack" 18:18
No joke, the scene at 13:34 legitimately made me laugh out loud.
I just realized how many of these reviews I've watched and never looked at the comment section before
That is most wise.

I thought it was Green Hornet but whatever. Either makes good reviews. I'm just hoping he gets around to 2017's "The Mummy". Even I have a review of it partiaclly scripted for when I finish learning video editing. It's horrible.
I haven't seen it yet, but please tell me you aren't comparing it to just the Brenden Frasier one, but also the original Karloff mummy, which from what i can tell it was trying more to be like
7:29 OMG IT'S SHIA LABEOUF
This is the movie version of "Kang fu" for the Amiga cd32
I remembered watching this with my cousin when I was a kid. Throughout most of the movie I kept asking her, "When's the kangaroo going to start talking?" That was the only reason why I wanted to see it :/
Me too
same! XD
The marketing was the only reason this movie was a hit. It was like, some kind of trick that hypnotized kids into seeing it.
I only remember the kangaroo
Much like Snow Dogs, the filmmakers figured that "Hey! If we lie to the kids, we can trick them into coming." There's no other reason that these movies made money. The trailers were like the game Aliens: Colonial Marines. Just a real misleading pack of lies.
Yeah. I admit, I saw this movie as a kid. I was expecting a movie about a talking singing kangaroo. (I loved that kind of thing as a kid) What I got was a gangster movie with a normal kangaroo, and the talking singing kangaroo was in only one scene that turned out to be a dream. I walked out of the movie feeling lied to. That was the movie that taught me not to trust trailers.
Yeah. My cousin saw Snow Dogs based off the trailer (I was too much of a cynical prick to see it but I was actually right not to). What he got was a movie about a dentist and the talking dogs was a dream sequence. Sound familiar.
They did that in the trailer to Snow Dogs? OH. I never saw the trailer, I watched it in the theater only because of the title and because I had nothing else to do that night since the power lines were down in my neighborhood. Snow Dogs wasn't disappointing from that perspective.
This movie is the perfect definition of false advertising. I was one of those kids that really did thought this was about a talking kangaroo. Finally saw it in middle school and was heavily disappointed.
Knowing how your 1st viewing went, makes this so much funnier than it already is
As an Australian citizen, born and raised in this really fucking hot country, I can safely say on behalf of my entire nation with undisputed authority;
This movie sucks arse.
Also an an Australian I too agree.
Wait... Kangaroo Jack is not about a rapping kangaroo??? I have an old DVD of this from when I was younger and literally all I remember about it is the rapping kangaroo. I thought it was like an Alvin and the Chipmunks kind of thing where a person helps an impossibly talented animal rise to fame??? I have no recollection of any of the crime drama part of the story
Chromaggia I could have sworn that he fought a wrestler while rapping and I also remember that in the beginning of the movie the kangaroo was being chased by someone.
Raman Handa the second level of hell
neither did I until this review, it's that horrendously forgettable
Same
Mandala effect
Not gonna lie, Estella Warren makes this movie bearable.
She is just drop dead gorgeous in this one.
I actually liked this as a kid. *shrug* I was a kid. >.>
You and me both
Aw, man. Nostalgia Critic! You passed up a perfect time for a "Scary Slow-Mo!"
..."Chicken Blood! Chicken Blood! Chicken Blood! Chicken Blood!"
I was really hoping he would do that, like he did with his Goofy Movie review.
Rapping dog
Rapping chesire cat
Rapping shark
Rapping kangaroo
It never ends
muskatDR and a smashmouth singing donkey as the cherry on top
muskatDR rapping Cheshire Cat?? Where the hell did that come from?!
muskatDR Rapping chicken blood
ZooTycoonLord That's from "Carebears in Wonderland".

I watched this all the time as a kid and I never realised how much this lacked in kangaroo screen time....
20:08 anybody notice how he uses a sub machine gun with a shotgun sound effect and pump?
What is this? Shadow the Hedgehog?
A FAMILY PICTURE...........
I love the way Malcom whispers.
5:18 Oh hai young General Zod
