Daniel Iger I'll give the kid credit for at least forming his own opinion about the movies, even though I don't find his objections reason enough to dislike them and also because I haven't seen them myself yet. Been dying to see Hoop Dreams.
12:30 When Ebert wrote his review for "Everyone Says I Love You" he wrote this: "It would take a heart of stone to resist this movie." Ebert's expression in 12:56 sums his response up.
"Who's coming with me?" "You had me at Hello." "Show me the Money!" Can you think of any other movie that's pumped MORE catchy one-liners into the public lexicon than Jerry McGuire?! It's crazy!
Daylight is no masterpiece but as far as disaster films go, it’s pretty great. Good concept, great set pieces, very claustrophobic. And some pretty heart breaking moments. I think they hated it just cause it’s a 90s disaster film. Not very open minded.
I liked Daylight and agree with your points but the best 'action thriller' of that year for me was Strange Days, I also liked Eraser while most people hated it lol
I saw JM in a theater and hated it. Wish I saw ESILY on the big screen instead. Roger highly recommended it and I can understand why. After watching it again on UA-cam tonight, it's even better than I remembered.
@7:40 "The Black guys always die in service to the others" Wild. Thank you, Gene; I think we saw some changes in movies eventually . . .people do listen to critics and such an observation plants seeds that producers and audiences take notice of. Gene has good point; OJ the servile Black guy dies in The Towering Inferno and The Cassandra Crossing. Mario Van Peebles dies in Jaws IV and the audience complained and they used an alternate ending. ❤
I agree with them that though Everyone says I love you may not be Woody Allen's best as it does not have any novelty in terms of plot, its a great mixture of romance, comedy and musical. Its breezy and charming with some really likeable characters. And its held together by some really good performances. Allen, Hawn, Roberts, Norton, and Barrymore whose track was the funniest. But all in all this was a good movie where everybody turned a cheerful and enthusiastic and lively performance. Maybe the track of Roberts and Allen was not played as well or extensively as it should have been. But again Allen gave it the perfect ending. Contrasting his fate in love with that of his daughter in the movie.
blendedbananas it's the only character woody Allen can play. I'm sick of it too, 30 movies of the same character, a nervous writer with issues about sex.
@14:40 Pan & Scan was HELL! I don't miss the VHS pan & scan Days At All! I never Ever want to see another Pan & Scan movie ever Ever again unless it's a spoof of that era. TVs are rectangle, as opposed to square, now and we're safe.
It’s funny Gene said that Stalllone should quit with the action movies and here we are 23 years later and a new Rambo movie is being made. I think Stallone will be running over bad guys in a souped-up scooter in films before he passes. He’ll invent a whole new genre: the geriatric action flick.
Stallone's entire career is undercooked and disappointing. He occasionally exhibits his considerable talents as an actor and director in the best rocky films but that's it. Most of the time, he appears in cringe inducing comedies or B grade action films. He could have been the next Clint Eastwood, an expert craftsman behind the camera who gracefully aged his action persona. Instead, Stallone pumps himself up with HGH and undergoes numerous plastic surgeries in order to play roles that were appropriate for him when he was 35.
I think Ebert's off on wanting two movies out of Jerry Maguire. I think it works, and certainly endures, *because* it played two stories at once. The one thing that separated the original Rocky from its worse sequels was that it wasn't strictly a boxing movie: it was a great love story built around the idea of a great boxing story. These movies succeed based on how well they interweave both stories at once. Maybe Jerry Maguire wasn't as good as Rocky, but there haven't been very many movies since that do it as well as either.
The love story is essential to Rocky because it exhibits the humanity of the character. Without it, you would have just had a protagonist who is little more than a two dimensional mug. I am not the biggest fan of Rocky but I will admit that the relationship between Rocky and Adrian in that film is more convincing than most movie romances.
Two best Tom Cruise movies: Risky Business and Toby Maguire in large because of the two female leads (Rebekah and Renee). Had real screen chemistry with both of them. Compared to the total lack of chemistry with his wife in Eyes Wide Shut.
Gene never liked another Woody Allen film after Bullets over Broadway. Wonder how he'd feel about some of the recent films like Match Point, Vicky Cristina Barcelona, Blue Jasmine, etc.?
According to this article, Amazon is sitting on the movie and may never release it. But not because it's a bad movie. pagesix.com/2018/08/29/latest-woody-allen-movie-may-never-see-the-light-of-day/
+Cliff Slatterly were you alive and of movie-going age then because Jerry Maguire was such a huge hit when it came out, it was pretty inescapable for a little while there. The others I could understand not seeing cause they kind of came and went from theaters rather quickly although they've all popped up on TV, Daylight used to come on USA like continually.
The kid didn't like microcosm? I was 14 when that movie came out and I loved it! That kid was an idiot if he got confused about which bugs they were or what was going on.
Wow! Big Night, Shine, Fargo, Secrets and Lies, and Lone Star in one year (I haven't seen Breaking the Waves or Bound.) Last year we did have American Fiction, The Holdovers, and Past lives--and then Barbie and Oppenheimer, a two truly over-rated movies. Can Oppenheimer compare with any of the 1997 movies? How many people have watched Oppenheimer more than once? How many have watched Big Night, Fargo, or Lone Star more than once? Fro me, all of the latter are already classics.
We're Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert alive in 1996 and are they alive in 2018 when they reviewed Jerry Maguire, can Tiffany Hunter mention the 1996 movie "Jerry Maguire" starring Tom Cruise on the Home Hunter show on ABC 15?
Best woody allen movies in no particular order: Annie hall, sleeper, crimes and misdemeanors, Manhattan, blue Jasmine, shadows and fog, what's up tiger Lily, love and death, midsummer night's sex comedy, Hannah and her sisters... Everyone says I love you has no laughs. Siskel is right, Roger is wrong. ( I know blue Jasmine didn't exist yet)
I think Roger Ebert has it right. The singing is really musical. Goldie Hawn is an amazingly great singer. She stars the tune and not herself. Lady Gaga cold take a lesson. I think it's just that Gene Siskel is, himself, not very musical. The tunes are great, and the choreography is amazingly imaginative.
Siskel & Ebert are my people. Forever a fan.
Me too.
XRJ92 so am I! I wonder what they would think about films now.
Absolutely, As much as we miss Gene and Roger they're both too good for today's society.
That’s why we’re all here! 😃
I wish we could have gotten more "Siskel & Ebert slam dunk on kids" segments. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I saw Daylight in the theaters twice. I loved it.
they were way too hard on it. its ok i really liked it.
Critiquing the kid's critique of their critique. That's golden.
Daniel Iger I'll give the kid credit for at least forming his own opinion about the movies, even though I don't find his objections reason enough to dislike them and also because I haven't seen them myself yet. Been dying to see Hoop Dreams.
Best thing ever!
@@Xayjohns have you seen it yet??!!!??
Jerry Maguire is one of those movies where I enjoy watching the performances more than following it's plot
*its
That's a great way of putting it. Haha
Daylight was fun and underrated, why everyone totally hate it
Siskel destroyed that kid. LMFAO!!!
Homework for everyone see Breaking the waves a great film!!!
It is a good movie, though it's kind of weird.
Miss these guys
Miss them too.
@@sha11235 Same here.

LOL look at Ebert's face when Siskel says he doesn't like Everyone Says I Love You. I would have the same face. That movie is perfect.
I'm not sure that Siskel likes movies at all? He gives thumbs down to some of the greatest flix i've ever seen.
"Really?" .... "Aw Gene, come on" hahahaha
@@IgorsDen Think I was talking about 12:30
"Oh Gene, come on..."
The most amazing thing about watching this in 2022 is Ebert telling the viewers how to film a quality selfie.
"Who's coming with me?"
"You had me at Hello."
"Show me the Money!"
Can you think of any other movie that's pumped MORE catchy one-liners into the public lexicon than Jerry McGuire?! It's crazy!
“Help me help you”
Star Wars, The Wizard of Oz, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Ghostbusters, Die Hard, Mean Girls, Clueless, The Big Lebowski
Jerry Maguire👍🌟🌟🌟
Daylight👎🌟
Everyone says I love U 👍🌟🌟🌟
Lmao they totally buried that kid at the end
Daylight is no masterpiece but as far as disaster films go, it’s pretty great. Good concept, great set pieces, very claustrophobic. And some pretty heart breaking moments. I think they hated it just cause it’s a 90s disaster film. Not very open minded.
Daylight sucked.
watch it again. you'll see that im right
I agree. I'm such a junkie for action movies weather it be in the 80s, 90, 00s or today. I love turning my brain off every now and then.
I liked Daylight and agree with your points but the best 'action thriller' of that year for me was Strange Days, I also liked Eraser while most people hated it lol

"Maybe his action picture days are numbered" Oh how wrong they were!!!! I wish he'd lived to see Stallone now!!
Leone now in Orange is new black, Robert's husband here was in Prison break and Heroes.
I LOVED Jerry McGuire
Who's your muthafucka Jerry!!!!!!???
Got it on VHS
Jon Michael Halsey ok braggart
Jerry McGuire, a sappy cheesy load snoozefest and I hated how people made so much of the "you had me at hello" line at the time.
You had me at snoozefest, idk why but I have that feeling if I ever felt like actually watching it
Funny how Gene thinks he might not do action flicks after this.
Once again! Gene hits bulls eye with Woody's movie. I also am tired of Allen's nebbish character in all his movies. I say *_move on_* 15 years ago.
blendedbananas it's the only character woody Allen can play. I'm sick of it too, 30 movies of the same character, a nervous writer with issues about sex.
@@MrDruism I agree!
I love Daylight nonsense disaster movie formula as the story Siskel tells about the candies😂😂😂

Woody Allen did go through a slump, but then he got good again. Now he's back to meh.

Thumbs up!
I love Rex Harrison’s performance in MFL
hahaha the revolving thumb
I just saw jerry Maguire the others don't impress me at all
20:09 - 'Jerry Maguire':👍👍, 'Daylight': 👎👎, 'Everyone Says I Love You': 👎(S)👍(E)
Never saw any of these movies.
Cliff Slatterly
I did.
Which ones?

+Cliff Slatterly
Jerry McGuire (I thought it was okay) and Daylight (which was borderline passable, but the dumb factor edged it out for me).
Well, don't bother with Daylight. Piece of shit. The Woody Allen film is good and so is Jerry Maguire.
The kid didn't like microcosm? I was 14 when that movie came out and I loved it! That kid was an idiot if he got confused about which bugs they were or what was going on.

why they just read that lil dude on tv, doe?
I thought tom cruise and cuban Gooding jr.had very good connection and chemistry as co -actors playing there respective characters.

Gene and Roger are both dead. Gene died in 1999 and Roger in 2013. Where have you been-on Mars?
My brother hated Hepburn in My Fair LAdy simply because her singing voice was dubbed (by Marnie Nixon)

11:56.
I’ve heard of the Wachowski Sisters but who are the Wachowski Brothers?
Gene is right about the woody allen film here.
Funny that Cuba Gooding Jr. played a football player here, later on he played a real one who got away with murdering two people.
Ebert got 5 right. Bound and Big Night weren't nominated
"You haven't knocked Stallone" lol man I can't believe all the turds Stallone made in the 90s. What the hell was he thinking?
Copland was great though
@@pjay213 I have seen parts of Copland. It's good. Didn't Stallone gain 35 pounds for that movie?
As my grandmother used to say, "A girl's gotta eat."
Tom Cruise and Rene Zelwegger, 2 incredibly good looking people. It makes me sick.😁
I think Roger Ebert has it right. The singing is really musical. Goldie Hawn is an amazingly great singer. She stars the tune and not herself. Lady Gaga cold take a lesson. I think it's just that Gene Siskel is, himself, not very musical. The tunes are great, and the choreography is amazingly imaginative.
I think they were way too hard on that kid. Seriously, what kid is captivated a 3-hour long documentary?
Only Siskel & Ebert could find a nice meaningful way to say this kids review is dumb
I thought Everyone Says I Love You was corny as hell and it's sad because I love the actors who played in it.
Daylight was garbage.
I prefer Bully Maguire.
I don't think I've ever even grinned during a Woody Allen film. His movies are just so fucking corny and lame. Weak sauce, one after another.
I like Take the Money and Run and Loce and Death.
Fargo was crap and Bound??? Seriously??? The Red Violin was by far the best film in 1996
The kid was right Hoop Dreams was boring
God Jerry MaGuire is the worst fucking movie I have ever seen in my life. Did Tom Cruise secretly write it himself?
