Coach Carter (2005) MOVIE REACTION- FIRST TIME WATCHING

[@larrycanupp411]

I teach 8th grade ELA at a public school in Phoenix and had a tough day. I needed to watch this to make me feel like I could (still) be the kind of teacher the coach is. Tomorrow is another day.

[@MrGameonthis]

Keep up the great work Larry!

[@lexsodz]

You got this man! You are the modeler of the youth and they need you even if they don't know you! I am so grateful for all the 100s of teacher I've had in my life... from grade school, to university, to career, to family, to personal development and to movies including Caoch Carter!

[@wealldead]

Nothing but love brother you got this

[@Buccubus]

Saw Coach Carter instantly clicked!

[@matthewmoody255]

Same here 😂

[@PrincevincentiusEL]

FR FR 🙌🏼😅

[@tech4172]

Ditto what a Great Movie

[@bobhowell9377]

Me too

[@ashleyhartwell1799]

Yup! Lol

[@3YearsApart1613]

It's so true how important parents are to the success of their children. A coach Carter is rare, but the love and discipline of a good parent will set kids up for success.

[@jmurda8533]

except for the innocent one that got slaughtered by its mother. But yeah

[@MaRodney]

Just like Remember The Titans, this is a definite feel good movie based on a true story that will get you in the feels...Gridiron Gang is a definite next!!

[@texasboi42]

gridiron gang and radio

[@lazydk2654]

Try Glory road.

[@slanetroyard92]

I was 13 when this came out and even back then I agreed with coach Carter. You say that the community is behind your team and yet they're not thinking long term about the teams situation. Say that the kids do get into good colleges but don't preform well in the classrooms. Bad grades means that they can't play, that happens and they'll lose their scholarship and last I checked college is very expensive. College doesn't Cottle kids. It gives them a sample of the real world and they don't care if your a great athlete. People in sports towns need to stop treating their high athletes like they are in Varsity Blues before they end up in prison or worse dead in the streets.

[@rick1984]

This movie still makes me cry till this day. It's such an amazing inspiration. I remember when this movie came out watched it in theaters i was only 12. Being a big basketball guru I knew what what these guys felt when they lost. But reading the ending. They didn't lose nothing. Definitely a gem and will never get old! Rich whaaaa???

[@MrMetamorFitness]

When Cruz gives his speech about his greatest fear. Damn 😭

[@zackzaharko89]

This is a fantastic inspirational story. Samuel L does an amazing job per usual. Glad you enjoyed!

[@lalalalisa41]

Still to this day, one of my favorite basketball movies. So inspirational and emotional ❤️

[@BigTomReacts85]

My kids school doesn't have a GPA minimum for sports or band/choir, but my boy knows if any class goes below a C, he is sitting out of Concert Band until those grades come up. LOL Great reaction, bro!

[@TexArizocan]

His school doesn't have a minimum GPA?

[@rangeljrjess]

One of my most favorite movies of all time without a doubt. Thanks bro. Keep'em coming.

[@nucl3arboNg]

Before doubt? That before an odd way to say "without" 😂

[@rangeljrjess]

Hahaha yeah stupid phone. Tryna tell me what I meant to say. I meant no doubt.

[@shellymarquez9320]

This hits close to home for me, as I am from Pinole, next town over from Richmond, but, my Grandma grew up in Richmond and went to that high school when it was called Richmond Union High School! The principal who was portrayed in the movie was the principal at Pinole Valley High a few years before this when my younger brother was there! Let’s say, my brother knew her well!🤣🤣🤣

[@tekkamanviper2783]

the front shot of the school at 2:28 is Loyola High School thats in LA, i live about 12 minutes from there

[@ronaldleesantiagoalvarez789]

A coach that gives life lessons while playing the game is a treasure to love.

[@dmhkillah8195]

Football: varsity blues (1999) any given Sunday (1999) the replacements (2000) Friday night lights (2004)

[@mikewarker4445]

Friday Night Lights best football movie ever, also Remember the Titans and the original Longest Yard w Burt Reynolds much better than Adam Sanders version

[@dmhkillah8195]

@@mikewarker4445 I completely agree

[@jackfinnegan917]

Friday night lights would be a great reaction

[@TheJoshestWhite]

Friday Night Lights yes please

[@sonnystaton]

This is in my backyard. Hilltop mall in Richmond was the hangout for us in Vallejo back in the day.

[@NOxSPLOOSHxPLANE]

Is Coach Carter based off a true story? It is based on the true story of Richmond High School basketball coach Ken Carter, who made headlines in 1999 for suspending his undefeated high school basketball team due to poor academic results. The story was conceived from a screenplay co-written by John Gatins and Mark Schwahn.

[@Berto2K]

Blew my mind when I saw Rick Gonzalez (played Timo Cruz) on Law & Order: Organized Crime now as a regular cast member. Such a talented actor.

[@Ninja_Tude]

And Arrow on CW before that don't forget

[@Berto2K]

@@Ninja_Tude had no idea, never watched it!

[@laticiadavis8627]

This is definitely OK ne of my favorites I get emotional when timo says the quote about our biggest fears,and when he went to coach Carter after his cousin got ahot.

[@bryanprime3438]

One of my favorite basketball movies

[@rhysagrey]

2:49 I never knew you could sing Devin 😅 Dont think I didn’t hear that soul in your voice 😏

[@fe-real]

Listen! I loved this movie so much when it first came out. Had the OST CD and played a hole straight through that thing! It was skipping like crazy by the time I was through with it! 🤣

[@ddvjbh]

Sports movies are actually really good. I remember the I used to love Sunset Park. Please add that to one of your future polls. I hope more people would like for you to watch that.

[@jraykotheanomaly2365]

a very underrated, feel good movie.... reminds you that there still might be hope for the human race.... great reaction

[@liarzdice]

This is going to be good! One of those movies I've rewatched several times.

[@QUICKSCOPEmrJ]

My favorite reactor watching one of my favorite movies, lets gooooo!

[@danlincoln8987]

Outstanding sports movie, coach Carter changed their lives

[@Sactown15]

This came out when I was in high school. God I feel old

[@TexArizocan]

I know I'm late to finding this reaction, but I'm glad I did. This is one of my favorite movies, and loved this reaction

[@ianblake815]

Really a hidden gem of a film 😁

[@JessiexWx]

adore your reaction so much , how at the beginning you were not really liking/vibing theirs team vibe ect. and the more and more the movie progress how you became visibly more and more into the movie , pause your facial expression at the beginning and at the end of the movie , totally two different emotions , love a movie that can do this to ppl , never fails to feel inspired and amazed at how beautifully the story line & characters (based on real story & people) progresses✨ .. anyways all that to say... , I love your reaction and this movie so much !! x W

[@S_047]

Devin uploads, I click. One of the top reactors on yt.

[@The_Bleeze]

Another absolute classic basketball movie based on a true story you gotta check out if you haven't already: Glory Road.

[@bigb2494]

Great reaction. Glad you got to Coach Carter. Another great movie inspired by a true and is Denzel Washington's directorial debut is Antoine Fisher.

[@BobbyG716]

Always enjoy reactions man. Love this movie. It's a shame not many movie reactors have done a reaction to this film.

[@RafaelGarcia-ov9uk]

This is one of my all time favorite movies. I watch this with my kids all the time. One movie I would highly recommend is McFarland, USA, with Kevin Costner.

[@danielabeckham7397]

Yes!!! No one ever talks about this movie but I cry like a baby every time when I see Danny at the end 🥹

[@jessequiroz321]

I love this movie growing up in Richmond does a good job showing what it’s like

[@aldo1871]

yesssir 510

[@caseydavis1338]

Another Fire reaction!!!! Love the channel

[@thearchitect8637]

Excited to watch this for the first time with you

[@megadriver23]

Coach Carter wasn't a softie he was hard tough sincere what kids need In there life

[@matthewrobinson2831]

Fact this is based on a true story. I wish more teachers cared about students too go to these lengths too see them succeed in life

[@joellenglass2344]

They made their opponents work in every game, especially the last one! They worked for that win!

[@Ninja_Tude]

You don't have to win every game if you leave it all on the court.

[@RiveBassCovers]

He didn’t really work for free. The movie was set in 1999, so $1,000 was probably a good, decent payment. Also, Carter had the store going on, so he was set in terms of money

[@renegilbertson9737]

My brother was on the team broke his shoulder stayed 8 months in retraction love this movie a+ Richmond California we're I'm from

[@UpYourArsenal]

Love this movie - glad to have seen the title when skimming through your list.

[@aldo1871]

i live 3 blocks from this high school! such a good movie

[@MomIFrewUp]

Devin you need to check out Moneyball, an amazing movie about baseball that is more about the Manager aspect of sports rather than the playing aspect

[@flysus4011]

Great movie and great reaction keep up the hustle 💪

[@LukeKhaing]

Need more coaches like him today.

[@lousweirdworld5347]

One of my favourite films dude

[@mariolazri2897]

Sometimes i rewatch this film. It's a little pearl.

[@mikemath9508]

i was 16, girlfriend was 15, we got dropped off to go see a movie. i forget which one she wanted to see, but it was sold out for that day, so instead we just went with whatever was showing next, which was Coach Carter. me and her walk in the theater and it's FILLED with black people (we're white) and she clings to my arm. I lead her a couple rows back to where we can sit next to each other, she puts up the arm rest and leans against me good movie, I'd never heard of it before or after. she's long gone but I still have coach samuel l jackson in my heart. also the audience was really loud

[@docsportello1334]

Always a good one DG!

[@jjlew48]

Like watching movies with the fam! Side note you looking buff asf bro!

[@tech4172]

Same here almost like another Movie night but besides Movie night now we get Reaction night plus i get to see if they would like too watch the whole movie ;)

[@CrashCourseFarm]

Remember when parents held their kids accountable and held them to higher standards.... we need to get back to this in schools ... not what we have now ... I always loved this movie ... Dangerous Minds is another great movie

[@LukeKhaing]

This is why I'm not suitable to have kids. A whole different generation. I'm use to the discipline style and holding everyone to high standards.

[@PantoniStrikesBack]

I don't know what happens with Octavia Spencer... it doesn't matter if the movie is good or bad. She's always amazing (even in the smaller roles) and I love to watche her. Also... great movie. Cheers!

[@dmhkillah8195]

Love this movie! Excellent pick!

[@Ninja_Tude]

Love this movie to this day!! And looking around, we need this messaging more than ever. This should be a required film study in middle schools or Something..!

[@kevinjaypattie8438]

All I’m saying is… gridiron gang!

[@redrews3]

You dropped bars in this reaction. 🔥💯

[@basktbalG]

Thank you!!! I still watch this movie constantly ❤❤❤

[@3YearsApart1613]

If you liked this movie, I would love to see you react to "Finding Forrester"

[@patriklanzen]

Isnt that Cuba Gooding Jr's son..acting aswell. 👍

[@primoguerrero7928]

I just rewatched this yesterday! Awesome movie

[@ABKMorgan]

Glad you watched this, brilliant film.

[@BasicBodThor]

Right up there with Remember the Titans with my favorite sports films

[@shadokitngaming7699]

A couple of great based on true story movies you gotta see are The Impossible, Ford v Ferrari and 13 Lives. If you've already watched these, I'm new to the channel so I'm still watching everything lol

[@alonzopharell7397]

They lost but they didn't lose Devin G great quote 👌

[@Jogbiggesthreat]

You gotta watch “Hurricane Season” it’s similar but shows true events about when Katrina hit New Orleans

[@Dj-sd1xq]

Excellent film, classic like Remember the Titans.. also if you want an epic Hockey Film check out Miracle it’s based on a true story and underrated.

[@josephwilliams3250]

Really great movie unbelievable story didn't know when i first saw it Ty crane is so pose to be Tyson Chandler who had a great NBA career

[@TripleBMike]

Having kids is unpredictable. But I believe it's worth it in the end!

[@michaelriddick7116]

Devin you need to react too "Lean On Me" with Morgan Freeman" :) 🙏 #FreeMrClark!! 👍😎👍

[@DonkeyPunchPrime]

Oh man Varsity Blue an Glory road you gotta put both of them on the list!!

[@brennenbjorgan1867]

I wish so bad I had him as my coach

[@bigpancho22]

Devin G don’t miss in his reactions

[@brennenbjorgan1867]

I recommend glory road another great baseball film based on a true story.

We need a gridiron gang reaction from you

You got a nice singing voice bro I see u!

[@ButteredToast32]

Not much for sports but this is a damn good movie.

[@jasongilbert2379]

This is such a Great Movie!!!!

[@BigBWolf90]

You want another good basketball movie check out Glory Road. "You and I know that this season will be the highlight of these boys lives." "Well I think that's the problem. Don't you?" Yeah that is a problem, they're STUDENT athletes. Their academics come first so they can have something for the future if their dream doesn't work out

[@JessiexWx]

this movie so so good! and inspirational , one of my favourites for sure! , some gen z kids should watch and get inspired by this ( and not make it a political debate like they love to do ) & really get the message and meaning of priorities in life..

[@Ninja_Tude]

We should look at just adding it to the curriculum with silm studies etc in middle school

[@puneetsinghpuri5052]

Dang..dev can sing...cool

[@Chels677]

Gridiron gang next

[@jimbigboystoys4077]

Very inspirational movie! But you all realize that Coach Carter’s methods would never fly anymore in our entitled, sensitive, pansy ass, everyone gets a trophy society we live in now. SAD but TRUE.

[@thenintenosayian9553]

I'd really recommend the movie Greater. Really good football movie and it's free on KZbin
