Can’t speak for everyone, but as a black dude in his mid-40s from NYC, this movie is a classic. I’ve never heard anyone in the hood have a problem with this movie, cause RDJ’s not making fun of us, he’s making fun of the actors that take these kinds of roles. We’re in on the joke, we’re not the punchline. That’s why the actual black actor’s there, to say “aha see? We know this is ridiculous & we’re calling it out in the movie”. It’s fine to laugh at funny shit without worrying if it’s “problematic”. Black people are smart enough to know when we’re actually being insulted. This wasn’t it. Even black comedians I’ve heard on the topic, also commend RDJ for this role. Jamie Foxx, Deon Cole, etc. This movie’s one of the highlights of RDJ’s career, not a negative. He killed this role.

Precisely. There is a scene in "Kramer vs. Kramer" where elevator doors open, and Meryl Streep's character is supposed to look devastated. To "help" her, Dustin Hoffman has been reported to have slapped her across the face without warning, right before the doors opened. This was brought up during the height of #metoo, but nothing came of it.

I hate when people think this movie couldn't be made today because of RDJ in blackface, or that there is even anything wrong with the blackface in this movie. The blackface in this movie isn't offensive, because black people aren't the butt of the joke. Historically, blackface was used to show black people as stupid and uncivilized; here, it's being used to show how dumb extreme method acting is. And this movie absolutely could be made today. Society's attitudes haven't changed that much since 2008.

Take it from me, a disabled person - I don't get all worked up when I see an abled actor playing a disabled character. For better or worse, it's part of what the movie trade is, so take it for what it is. RDJ really didn't get any backlash - other than award nominations. Sometimes things aren't what they seem, & taking immediate oppobrium isn't really necessary. Anyways, as I say, that's all said with a good heart, no offence intended.

The inclusion of that seems to have changed since 2008. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I’m inclined to believe that when this movie was released, the MPAA didn’t include that as one of the depictions worthy of note when writing those lists under ratings; they probably didn’t consider it as part of their rating criteria at all.

Everyone makes this movie about "blackface". Please allow me to bring up others before this. Dan Aykroyd in "Trading Places". How about Eddie Murphy doing white face as a Jewish man in "Coming To America"? Blazing saddles blatantly exposing stupidity. It is comedy and parody. It is only negative or "racist" when people make it stupid or for their own purposes. PS racist is a stupid term there is only one race homeo-sapien. Everything else is an ethnicity based on geographical evolution. Hence Hitler was not racial cleansing but Ethnical Cleansing with his campaign. One race. A real racist would simply hate humans you know murderers and such. This will garner some hate but also hopefully raise some intelligence and conversation about the truth.

This movie is hilarious girls. I saw it in real time inside the theaters. I don't know a black person that doesn't love this movie. I miss times like this when we could all just laugh. Everybody loves rdj - before and after this movie😆. My favorite part of this reaction was when you guys could not control your laughter at the most ridiculously funny moments. Thanks.

I'm amazed there've been so many movie reaction youtubers who didn't instantly recognize Tom Cruise. The weird suit that gives him giant hands is insane. Other hilarious moments: - when Tugg throws his briefly "adopted" Asian son (his other one) off the bridge, there's a little kid version of a Wilhelm scream - Sandusky first asks Kirk Lazarus if he really dated Jennifer Love Hewitt and he said that was just media/tabloid speculation-she was the hot girl who was Sandusky's date to the Oscars

25:15 That is Tom Cruise. After his infamous interview with Oprah where he was acting weird, he got this role some time later and people seeing him in this role got him a lot of goodwill. Also coincidentally he based the character on Harvey Weinstein.

You saw all this "problematic" stuff in this movie? Yes? You're still here, right? Still alive, still able to function? The world is still going around, life is still happening. Just a little perspective on "problematic". You had a good laugh, and nobody died... well except for the director.

@@RuntotheMovies Hannah didn't seem to be offended by anything. She gets that it's just a comedy, but it did seem like her buddy was acting like she was offended. She should take a leaf out of hannah's book and just roll with the punches. Not to take things to heart. It's only comedy.

@@TheRetroManRandySavage exactly. This is just a KZbin video. Folks should learn to not take it to heart and be offended by someone with a different worldview. The number of people in these comments who are triggered by this reaction video is staggering. Like someone more eloquent than I said in an earlier comment, the Anti-SJW crowd are the real "snowflakes." Both Hannah and Abby enjoyed this movie a lot. They cringed, but had a great time. It was fun to film and fun to edit. The only part that's not been fun is having to police this comment section. The vitriol that idiots hurl in the direction of two of the most intelligent people I know is staggering. At no point in the filming did either Hannah or Abby act offended. They were shocked, which made for an excellent reaction video, and they were delighted to be right about it being Tom Cruise in the suit, but they weren't offended at any moment. The only folks offended are the keyboard warriors leaving mean comments on this video. I actually considered taking the video down, but decided against it. I'm not going to have a small number of imbeciles dictate what content we publish on our channel.

And the award for "Best Child Yeet" goes to... Tugg Speedman!" I have a couple of "issues" with this film. 1. If "the camera wasn't even rolling", how did Access Hollywood get the footage? 2. Kirk Lazarus sis not actually undergo "pigment alteration" surgery. It was a publicity stunt for the film. After his revelation at the end of the film, he becomes very white. Despite these, this is one of the best comedies ever made. Just brilliant. Is there anyone who wouldn't pay to see "Satan's Alley"?
