Fun fact about the hysterectomy line: It wasn't in the original script. The (male) writer wrote the "that time of the month" joke in, and both lead actresses and the (female) director were so annoyed about it that they almost cut it altogether but instead Florence improvised the sarcastic response. The director did an interview saying “It’s like, if you’re gonna make that joke, I’m gonna unleash Florence Pugh on you. She’s gonna Yelena you," which is just (chefs kiss) perfection.

[@marinaatkin1581]

That's great. One of my favorite parts of the movie and honestly a great way of showing how Yelena handled that trauma as opposed to Natasha

[@Rmlohner]

The original script had Yelena never having any kind of reconciliation with her parents, until David Harbour himself had the idea that Alexei could prove he really did care about her by remembering her favorite song. The filmmakers loved the idea so much that they sprang for the rights to use American Pie, and added it to the opening sequence (so if it feels kind of awkwardly shoved in, that's why).

[@rebelxoswald]

the line "using the only natural resource that world has too much of, girls" is so disturbing, it's stuck with me and still disturbs me ever since my first watch. it made dreykov even more just disgusting as a villain, like this isnt a villain like loki or winter soldier or even thanos, this guy was just pure evil based on his manipulations and sociopathic lack of empathy, his uncaring ideology and his actions in abusing and using these girls who were abandoned, orphaned, or taken by him. he didn't care he just wanted weapons to use and abuse for his own ends no matter the cost to those girls as long as it benefits him. i'm glad there's no way to sympathize with this guy and if someone did i'd be worried about them, the only "villain" they designed for us to sympathize with in the story is antonia/taskmaster who isnt even a villain but a victim of dreykovs abuse as well.

@@JoePizzeria007 I think that's a little reductive. The film suffered from a pre-viz 3rd act that didn't quite manage to maintain the tone and intrigue of the first act in particular, and I can see why Taskmaster fans had a bone to pick with this interpretation of the character - even though I think it ultimately worked for MCU Natasha (especially how it links back to the 'Dreykov's daughter' line from the first Avengers movie). There's also the 'too little too late' element, which I personally think is a weak argument because we all know why a Black Widow didn't happen sooner (*cough* Perlmutter *cough*) and the film is also part origin story for Yelena, but I can see why a lot of people felt this way.

And as much as they try to play Alexei off as sympathetic, he's a guy that turned these two little girls over to the Red Room happily, and clearly knowing exactly what was going to happen to them...hard to get past that. All that said, watching ScarJo and Florence Pugh together is pretty much the most delightful thing ever.

Yelena didn’t want Natasha to come find her, even though she sent the photos which made Natasha decide to go find her, Natasha asks her why she would send the photos if she wanted to be left alone, Yelena doesn’t answer the question…. A lot of things happened in this movie in order to further the plot even though a lot of it doesn’t make sense. At the end when Yelena falls off of the station… Natasha reached down and grabs a random parachute… where the hell did this parachute come from? The writing constantly doesn’t make sense because the whole thing was made up on the go without consideration for the whole narrative or situation. They potentially kill an entire prison full of inmates and guards without a consideration even though Natasha’s biggest MCU arc has been about not mindlessly killing. Natasha blows up an entire room by detonating a bomb right in front of a little girl and somehow the girl survived. The murderous mind controlled widows engage in hand to hand combat even though they are always packing a sidearm. And the production seems amateur and rushed. They spent 200 million dollars and the cgi looks terrible. Dune only cost 165 million and it’s one of the greatest looking movies of all time.

I've watched you guys off and on but I find the more I watch the more I enjoy your reactions. Just wanted to say appreciate the work you put into this and thanks.

[@Slim574]

The differences in reaction at 2:35-2:40 is hilarious. Steve's like "Yeah Action, sweet!' Nikki can't keep her face outta her hands. Lolol.

[@TheRomansReact]

Always great to see you both react with no expectations and good insight. This was a very good movie.

[@djb9734]

10:46-10:49 I loved Nikki's reaction to what Steve said 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@thatonecreepydoll5527]

The face mask technology was used in Winter Soldier when Natasha was pretending to be a member of the SHEILD council!

[@matthewmcshane399]

The lady who was taskmaster was also the lady who was camille in quantum of solace

[@leonielovemusic]

"if our daughters fight like this.... Omg" Me and my two older Sisters did. Admit not with these skills. But definetely with the same passion 😅😅 Still love them though!

[@NikkiStevenReact]

Just so everyone is aware, there won't be any reactions to Hawkeye... there isn't time in the schedule for it and it's already been started and will continue off camera.

[@Cameron5043]

Understood, but at some point, when you're done, take a few minutes somewhere and let us know how you liked it! 😊

[@NikkiStevenReact]

@@Just-Saiyan we both really did not like the first 2 episodes. Watched it like a month ago and struggling to hit play on episode 3.

[@nyghtmoon]

Hawkeye is amazing. The first couple are a little slow but then it takes off.

[@Selixinho]

The main titles scene was amazing!!

[@kbaylor123]

As rough as it was, I loved your reaction to the opening sequence and credits Mama Bear. Made me cry more than when I first watched it!

[@danielruiz8259]

1:17 Steven reaction to this moment was so funny

[@MikeySkywalker]

The suspense with which these two watch movies is palpable and I envy it.

[@ZaberFangAT]

They've used the face switching mask before, in The Winter Soldier, as well as a few times in Agents of Shield (which I know isn't canon, but they use elements from canon). I think it's also shown up in another movie, but I can't remember where. Taskmaster is a villain (male in the comics, but I'll go with 'she' for the sake of the movie) in Marvel who has 'photographic reflexes'. Basically, she can copy any physical feats she sees, as long as they're physically possible for her. Hence, she can fight like Captain America or Black Widow because that's technically humanly possible. She couldn't copy for instance Captain Marvel''s flight or Hulk's strength.

[@MetaphorUB]

Y’all are just the best! Nikki’s reaction to children in danger mirrors my own.

[@michelledion8847]

You guys have the best reactions and nikki getting emotional with all kid content melts me everytime. I am with you girl! This was a GREAT movie,hands down I really loved it.

[@clairedeeley9265]

Love you guys! As a girl mom myself, I love Nikki's reactions as a parent ❤

[@Jdubayou]

If you haven't already watched them you guys should definitely do reactions for the last few episodes of Hawkeye.

[@slowbass]

Hey how about stop spoiling stuff? 🙄

[@Jdubayou]

@@slowbass Literally how is this a spoiler? I just asked them to do reactions. Please use your brain

[@slowbass]

@@Jdubayou "do reactions for the last few episodes of Hawkeye." Use YOUR brain, How is this subtle in any way. C'mon

[@Jdubayou]

@@slowbass He literally said in the video that he has already seen the first 3 episodes. This is in no way a spoiler, you aren't very bright.

[@slowbass]

@@Jdubayou You are everything that is wrong with the internet nowadays. Keep making excuses why you are not a complete piece of trash. Byeeeeeee

[@leti2299]

Just finished watching and YAAAY!!! Thank you for posting this rn, I really needed this. Love y'all!!! And I loved the reaction as always🥰

[@SpookyKnickers]

The minute I saw the thumbnail I knew 100% Nikki was going to lose it in the opening credits. Only movie where I’ve ever cried like 5 minutes in

[@dwarfchron801]

So happy you guys enjoyed this!! Some people nit pick at it way too much. And how could anybody not absolutely LOVE Yelena?!?!

[@daverowe03]

If you liked Yelena, you have to finish Hawkeye! It's not the best show but has some great moments and great tie-ins with other stories. I'm curious what Nikki meant when she said she has her own opinion about Hawkeye.

[@crescendyr8438]

The disrespect to Hawkeye.... unforgivable.

[@kbaylor123]

Florence can do no wrong in my book 😆

[@erictheredish]

I just found your videos. I don't comment but you guys are great. I watch your videos even if I've seen the movie just for the reactions. Keep it up.

[@barkingsquirrel1751]

Loved this reaction video Nikki & Steven. I liked the energy both of you gave in watching this film. I can totally see Yelena stepping up in the "Black Widow" role where Natasha left off. With the new "Black Widow", new "Captain America", Shang-Chi, Scarlett Witch and the rest of the remaining usual suspects making up the new "Avengers" lineup, the MCU just keeps rolling along!!! Keep it going you two!!!

[@FireWolf583]

Fun fact: the joke about Natasha posing when she fights was improvised. Scarlett and Florence threw it in there and the director loved it so much they kept expanding on it throughout the movie.

[@taylors1974]

Definitely finish Hawkeye, it gets so much better, and Yelena shows up. Yelena became my favorite marvel character right away, she is so funny and just radiates little sister energy. Florence Pugh was PERFECT for this role.

[@ShogunAutoworks]

Yall melted before the hard part even began. Tip, dont go see Sound of Freedom ;) and DEFINITELY dont watch it and then rewatch Black Widow the next night, like we did. ;) The feels remind us we are human, and that we care. Embrace it.

[@jholmes553]

*** Sees an armored tank plowing through the street, destroying everything in its way *** Reasonable people: "Woah, that's too much destruction." Nikki: "I need that." Steven: "Just get out of my way." Nikki: "Wait, do they make that in Red, y'all? I need it." And that's why I love this channel.

[@trafalgarlawsgurl21]

I loved this movie!!!!! I already loved Natasha's character, and now with this additional backstory and the inclusion of Yelena made me love her even more I just wish we could've gotten this movie sooner I'm still happy we finally got it

[@JacobdeFries]

4:40 I agree with Steven: "show, don't tell" is way more impactful. Also, gotta watch Hawkeye now.

[@007MoMoney]

It was cool to see Natasha use that mask from The Winter Soldier to disguise herself again. The opening intro is my most favorite part of this movie.

[@tazm2480]

"its not working shooting the shield why would you continue to shoot the shield" EXACTLY

[@stevedooley6061]

"HOW DARE YOU!" I love Nikki 🤣😂😅❤👍
