This movie came just before the explosion of "reality TV" and very much predicted the level of lies and intrusiveness that "reality TV" was going to take us. And it absolutely has.

There were "reality TV shows" as far back as the 60's with shows like "This Is Your Life." Granted, it wasn't as scripted as this era of reality TV but they certainly only presented the most dramatic events even back then. And, true, we are recorded by at least a 100 different cameras everyday of our public lives but we constantly ignore the one camera looking directly at our face that's attached to our black screen devices. My phone camera has been capturing me as I type this comment.

😳Hooo-leee shit that was intense. Not gonna lie, the way they reacted made me judge my own morality. I mean yes, they're right; it is very cruel what they did to Truman.

I hear you. It's similar here in Europe (both eastern and western). By the time people finish high school they are so desensitized due to ruthless competition, watching Game of Thrones, getting cheated on by your significant other, seeing how salesmen, bankers and gangsters are held in high regard, so you kinda expect people to f you over... Makes me curious about what Vietnam is really like, what behavior standards prevail, what sort of content is consumed... And it makes me sad about what we've done with ourselves... The wind, one brilliant day, called to my soul with an odor of jasmine. "In return for the odor of my jasmine, I'd like all the odor of your roses." "I have no roses; all the flowers in my garden are dead." "Well then, I'll take the withered petals and the yellow leaves and the waters of the fountain." the wind left. And I wept. And I said to myself: "What have you done with the garden that was entrusted to you?" (Antonio Machado)

So what do you think of “society”? Do you think it’s a bigger cult? We are all brainwashed and fed lies all our lives. I realized when I was 16 that everything is made up.

@@WHADATBOYNAMEIS It is way more common than you think. There is a tool called the Bite Model, which is used to measure the level of control of different religions and other groups. The Bite Model does not actually use the term Cult, but it is used to determine if an organization is toxic, with the intent of helping to fix that organization. Most people consider a high score on the Bite Model a good indication that a religion is a cult, and I think that is a healthy way to use the term cult. Members of my old faith would disagree and feel hurt if they were called a cult, but the level of toxic control, the attacks on ex-Members (mostly ostracization and attacks on reputation rather than violence but that happens) as well as the financial exploitation of members in both getting them to fork over large amounts of money and time and the lies used to get them to provide free labor to the church.

[@vixenwinters6375]

Well, I can honestly say I've never seen anyone cry during this movie. Let alone sob uncontrollably. Another genuine, heartfelt reaction, ladies. What a cool and touching display of empathy. You've become some of my very favorite reactioners to watch. Your reaction to Gran Turino might still be my very favorite

[@capncrunch2338]

So glad to see this notification. It’s one of those films that I love seeing first reactions to! Thank you both 😁

[@samanthatomcat]

I remember feeling the same way when I first saw the Truman Show. I cried so much. It's a beautiful movie and such a tragedy, but I love how it ended. And I love how we don't get to see what happens to him after he leaves the studio, because no one else does. It's none of our business and he can go live his life how he wants to!

[@colconn57]

Probably the most amazing reaction I've seen to any movie. All of you ladies do such a great job. I guess the whole Idea of movies is to extract all sorts of emotions from us. But to see you two react this way just shows me that there are some amazing actors and directors out there. Oh and Greetings from Vung Tau!!

[@BarryHart-xo1oy]

The reactions of the two women,particularly Hella,were quite moving-it’s certainly one of the strongest reactions to a movie l’ve ever seen on KZbin.

[@YoureMrLebowski]

49:17 "...he's about our age, i guess." -Hella Jim Carrey was 36 years old when the Truman show was released in 1998. 🙂

@@sinther1 under 25? who knows.

[@CoolFrozenYak]

When I watched this long ago, I hopefully began looking around for signs that I was a Truman show. I feel that some of us could really use a reset on life like that. And everyone would know what you're capable of, so finding a good job doing what you like shouldn't be too hard? Super stylish glasses Hella!

[@XiomaraThaGoddessMeow]

I’ve watched this movie a million times, but I still cried with you guys 😭💚✨

[@liliebilie]

The part where Truman talks to his friend and his dad comes back also made me cry as a kid (that's when I first saw this movie). It made me feel so disgusted. I also cried so much at the end of the movie when Truman is on the boat. I still cry at that part as an adult 💔

[@jonkee2842]

You girls were so smart in the beginning of the film when you kept saying that sounds like a commercial, is she trying to sell something?... Because you figure out the premise of the movie before you truly realized it!

[@beokayian5378]

This movie will definitely mess with your head when you think about all the ramifications of what his life was and what it will be in the future. "We accept the reality of the world with which we are presented" is such a deep thought and THE quote of the movie. The very reason Truman didn't know that anything was fake. Everything he was taught from the time he was born and the outside world being hidden from him so he would never think that everything around him wasn't real. This is one of my favorite movies to see people react to seeing it the first time and the whole concept of how we perceive everything around us. Great reaction!

18:56 LMAO I love that her reference for what Mt. Rushmore looks like is Team America lol

[@velinion1]

19:55 crossing fingers has two meanings. One (kinda a school kids thing) is that a promise made with your fingers crossed "doesn't count" - you can act counter to your promise, since hour fingers were crossed when you made it. The second meaning is good luck - "I'll cross my fingers flr you" or "keep your fingers crossed" is saying "wishing you good luck" or "hope you have good luck".

[@SavageSarcasm]

I love how emotional you both got during the movie and how quickly you got the concept of it. I can't wait to see what Jim Carey movie Tien and Hela watch next.

[@nsasupporter7557]

Jim Carrey is the best entertainer of all time, anybody who thinks otherwise is stupid literally

[@melchozap1580]

I love this reaction, because in that last scene in the movie, all that impotence, all that sadness, anger, human desire of liberation... what can one do but cry? What a beautiful movie

[@Grenn1471]

People cross their fingers when making promises they don't mean. Basically, it was showing that she was lying during the wedding. Once Truman leave, I think he's got quite the lawsuit on his hands.

[@LordGrokken]

Billions.

[@TurntBucket]

Crossing fingers is also what you do when you are making a wish too. So when he said he would cross his fingers for her it was a play on the double meaning of the gesture.

[@PhilBagels]

The studio, the producers, the sponsors - they all owe him a hell of a lot of money. And a whole lot of people need to go to prison for a very long time.

[@bigdream_dreambig]

23:05 "That's it?!? Like, they just got up and walked out? Say _nothing_ about that? You guys are bad acting!" 🤣

[@NoelMcGinnis]

Since Hella cries easily, I expected to see a few tears in this reaction. But this movie absolutely destroyed Hella. I never cried watching this movie myself, but found myself with tears in my eyes because of how devastated you two ladies became. Tien looked angry enough to get violent at some points. I almost feel bad for considering this one of, if not the best, reaction I have ever seen. Bravo ladies. Please don’t ever change.

[@suokkis]

I can understand her. When I saw the movie first time, i wanted to punch Kristoff, and those actors for putting him through something like this, just for a show and for them to cash in. Even when Truman was the unknowing star, was he ever even going to see a single dime of it? Can you imagine the lawsuits he can put forth after he left that studio. He is going to be a rich man, but he will also be known everywhere he goes to... He can now travel, but he will probably try to find some place where he and Sylvia can settle in peace.

[@Sindrijo]

Genuine people react very strongly to injustice.

[@waynepolo6193]

I just want to say, I think you guys are good people. The world would be a better place if more people could have the same level of empathy, and care, and concern that you ladies show for each other, as well as the characters in the movies you watch. We should all be so lucky as to have friends like you.

[@andrewmccormack4295]

I adore you two Ladies,I've seen a lot of reactions to The Truman Show but this one is by far the best of all of them,outstanding,I didn't like seeing you two getting so emotional/crying during the movie but you did quickly pick up on a lot of clues during the film.Looking forward to your next reaction..

[@ezekial7028]

I've never seen anyone get so emotional to this movie, I understand it had emotional parts.

[@marksawicki3595]

These girls watch movies the way they are meant to be seen, as if the story, the events, are really happening and you see the injustices, the horrors, the unfairness and evil that one man can inflict on another. Hello I was so into it that she had to remind herself that it was just a movie, and one should as they come back to reality when the movie is over. I must say that I was really shocked at how strongly they took it and how angry they got, but I love them all the more for that. I really wanted to hold Hella and Let Her Cry on My Shoulder or even beat on me if she needed to if that helped her out. All three of you ladies are amazing to watch and I really enjoy every reaction you post. Hugs and kisses ladies. ❤❤
