MRS. DOUBTFIRE (1993) Movie Reaction! | FIRST TIME WATCHING!

[@OGBReacts]

So what I’m getting from the comments is to watch: Hook, Dead Poets Society, Good Will Hunting, One Hour Photo, Jumanji, and Death to Smoochy, (and more)? 👀 Guess it’s time to go on a Robin Williams streak!

[@sister1976]

Yay!! 😁😁😁

[@spiritdancer36]

I would love to add for consideration The Fisher King Directed by Terry Gilliam to that list. People for some reason forget about Mr. Williams performance even though it was up for numerous academy awards and he was nominated for best actor. It’s seriously amazing, it is easily in his top best acted roles.

[@sister1976]

Yes yes yes to Fisher King! ❤

[@lrc4263]

I will say this on EVERY “Mrs. Doubtfire” reaction video. I LOVE that the “Stepdad” Stu was not portrayed to be a bad guy. He is a good man and loves Miranda and the kids! One of the few movies in history that doesn’t make the stepdad out to be the automatic bad guy. Not only that, but the film focuses on DANIEL’S flaws, and how he has to learn to improve himself. And I also love that it doesn’t end with him and Miranda getting back together. It’s real life.

[@notavailable8201]

He actually was supposed to be that though the type to ship them off to military school. But the actor playing Stu made a nice proposition for Stu's character saying it would hurt Daniel more if Stu genuinely loved the kids and was a nice guy

As a child of a bitter and violent divorce… that final line always hits me. “If there’s love dear… those are the ties that bind… All my love to you poppet… you’re going to be all right” it saddened me that a film character had to say that to me and no one in my actual life did… but it still worked.

[@trentb3148]

When she says that the kids miss Mrs. Doubtfire, she means that they miss all the things Daniel was willing to do in character that he was unwilling to do as himself. He refused to hold onto a job, he refused to discipline his kids (which was especially to his son's detriment considering his grades), and he refused to work with Miranda on anything. Even when he says they should go to therapy, he completely refuses to take any responsibility for his fuckups, and shifts the blame onto her. And honestly, the more you think about it, the more fucked up thing is that Daniel would and could do all those things but simply didn't until he was in character. It's easy to sympathize with Daniel because Robin Williams is so charming, but honestly, the more you watch, the harder it is to blame Miranda for despising him. He seems to go out of his way to turn the kids against her. I mean, obviously she has her own faults, but I think they do a great job of presenting it as a two-way street.

[@VelkanAngels]

Yeah, we followed the development of them both, but Robin's character in particular. His talks with Miranda as Doubtfire made him realise that the divorce hadn't come out of the blue. When she had tried confronting him with the hardships she was having, he would find ways to joke about it without addressing her concerns or frustrations and she had been trying to stick it out for a long time. Like when she told him she cried herself to sleep sometimes. He understood more and more why things went so wrong and grew as a character as a result. None of this registered with me when I watched it as a kid, I had to re-watch it as an adult.

[@hildajensen6263]

Yeah. Who know what would have happened if Daniel had been willing to shoulder his part of the non-fun responsibilities as an adult sooner.

[@hettbeans]

I'm going to Jewsplain this incredibly terrifying joke - "I should never buy gribenes from a mohel, it's so chewy" - gribenes is chicken cracklins and a mohel is the guy who performs a bris (circumcision) and so the implication here is that the gribenes is actually foreskin.

[@rbrainsop1]

The thing about this movie is, the older I get, the more I understand Miranda's point of view. When they first divorced she was genuinely being crappy when she didn't go for shared custody, and was depriving him of even what little time he did have with them. But by the end, I totally get the judge's decision. I mean, look at it from her perspective. You get a divorce and then find out that your ex husband has been dressing in drag in order to deceive you, gain unauthorized access to your home and children, not to mention intentionally sabotaging your relationships, physically attacking and then nearly killing your new boyfriend and essentially spying on you from inside your own home. No matter how charming we find him, he just stomps over her boundaries like they're nothing and then makes her out to be the bitch for not putting up with it. She's made out to be the villain in this story, but when we step back from seeing the story through Daniel's eyes, he's far more of a villain than she is. Sure, she acted selfishly at times, but it was the usual getting divorced drama and all the hurt and pettiness that comes with it. But outside of a movie world, he would be in jail for what he did to her. The thing that really kills me, though, is he is just bending over backwards to accommodate her as Mrs. Doubtfire in order to get and keep the job. And while no divorce or break-up is entirely one sided, I can't help but think that if he had been willing to put in even half that amount of effort when they were married, she probably would have been more willing to work through things and they may not have gotten divorced in the first place.

[@erikawilliams9558]

Um....i still think she was in the wrong a lot too and I've gotten older. Maybe it depends on your own relationship experience?

[@rbrainsop1]

​@@erikawilliams9558 Maybe. I don't personally have any particular relationship experiences that speak to this. But I'm probably more of a Daniel, but my mom is a Miranda, and as I've gotten older and we've gotten closer I've started to see all the ways that me and my dad have added to her burdens (and then made her feel like the bad person for complaining, because we were the "fun," chill ones). I absolutely agree that she was being selfish and petty in the beginning, especially when she wouldn't even let him have all of his limited time with the kids because she had a busy schedule. That's terrible. In what other ways did you see her being in the wrong?

[@mnomadvfx]

Do you actually think this represents a common, or even rare real life outcome for divorce? The more common outcome is exactly the same in the beginning with a vengeful mother depriving the father of access and the father becoming increasingly depressed and bending further and further backwards to accommodate the mother just to gain access to his children for the little time she allows. This film is a microcosm of what every father in these situations would love to do and dares not. Why? Because the courts favor mothers from the outset. You may have come to understand Miranda's point of view with age, but you don't understand at all about Daniel's point of view and never can for the obvious reason that you will never be in that situation because: Chaching! The courts will favor you.

[@rbrainsop1]

His main flaws where he couldn't keep a job, hard for many struggling actors much less voice actors with morals. And he didn't try to take anything seriously basically it was like being married to a teenager at all times. In the beginning something like that would be fun. There fun attitude runs off on you puts you in a good mood makes you smile or laugh. But eventually it's time to get serious, some times you cant just laugh your problems away, so if its time to be serious and hes not doing it, then she gets frustrated, and when it happens again and again the frustration builds, having that old bag snitch living next door constantly calling her while at work pulling her out of important meetings naling her look bad in front of important clients and other important people in her field of work or simply the other partners of the company. Everyone talking behind her back about how such a beautiful respectable woman would be married to such a child. It all adds up so even if he's a great guy, he's not the kind of guy for someone like her.

[@Threeleebird]

He takes seriously the things that really matter to him, like his children. The problem is not that he is not as mature as she is, it is that they are very different. Daniel likes to be the funny father because he knows that makes his children happy. Miranda wanted a man who saw things her way and shared her opinions, Daniel was not that person, but they both love their children. Considering that, there was no reason for her to give him the penance of not letting him see them until he had a job and a stable home. He is not violent, he is not an alcoholic, and he treats children very well, he knows how to take care of them and at the very least, his priority is to spend as much time with them as possible.

[@joshuagross3151]

@@Threeleebird That's not her choice. The moment you take an issue like this to court, you cede partial control to the state. A stable home and income are standard requirements for guardianship in most states already, even if you're their mom or dad. By disobeying the conditions of the court, he prompted a more serious response. If Daniel wanted things to go differently, he should've tried working with Miranda instead of stonewalling.

Robin Williams range is unparalleled. He was actually the first Tom Hank's. He could do both amazing comedy and drama at an extremely high level. But so much talent comes with a price. He will be missed.

[@mnomadvfx]

Uhhh, I'm not sure how you managed to even put Tom Hanks and Robin Williams in the same wheelhouse there. Tom Hanks has played somewhat comedic characters, but only because they were written that way - he's not a comedian doing drama acting, he's a drama actor doing somewhat comedic acting roles, and they are usually more incidental than purposeful. Like with Forrest not realising that the way he acts/talks in ignorance can be funny, or his character Viktor in The Terminal with the whole 'lost in translation' vibe being funny before he learns English. A better way to put it is that Tom Hanks's characters offer more situational comedy rather than intentional comedy. Robin WIlliams on the other hand was first and foremost comedian through and through, he just happened to be astonishingly great dramatic actor too.

[@subtlesraf]

robin williams' talent had nothing to do with his death. he had lewy body dementia, it is only diagnosable after death at this point in medical history. it was not mental illness that contributed to his death. there is a documentary about it that his wife, neighbors and close friends had much to do with, as well as specialists who investigated the cause of his passing and the progression of the disease, it charts his final days and his decline in health and traces it back to when it first began presenting and was both concealed by robin and misdiagnosed by doctors. it's hard to watch in some ways. but it's what really happened. it's called 'Robin's Wish'

Which you should, but also realizing how messed up it is for him to dress up and still go into a home he himself isn’t welcome. But this movie makes you realize it isn’t for nefarious reasons. He just hasn’t ever been away from his children.

Absolutely. And while I agree with u & support anyone with mental illness…that’s not exactly what happened with Robin? He knew something wasn’t right & sought help for dementia-like symptoms, which was causing his anxiety & depression. They were pretty sure he had Alzheimer’s (turns out at his autopsy, it was Lewy body, which is similar to Alzheimer’s) so that’s why he ended his life. I guess that’s still a mental illness, but it’s a little different? He was depressed bc of Lewy body & it taking his identity. Regardless, so so so sad.

This movie is the best example of "just toss out the script and let Robin Williams do his thing."

Unfortunately, some of the other Robin Williams movies of the mid-to-late 90s veered too heavily into the schmaltzy category.

Hey Same. I cry every time the judge hands out the sentence. Also when he explains divorce to kids it up there as top level writing.

Hi Sam. Glad you saw Robin Williams as a human. Seen the movie so many times, but it has a nice mix of his cutting up, the voices, and angst. Usually leave longer messages, but this rude clerk keeps ringing the doorbell. I told him I had to retrieve more money; who knew dinner would be $140. Not from that place anymore; I'll be broke. :)

[@Jbr2005]

Just realized that Robin's character started out with a job he didn't want to do because it was immoral for kids, and he ended up in a role that was the opposite where he could teach kids good things. I guess he always wanted to be a children's entertainer. The bit with the dinosaur lines confirms this.

3:54- she's actually being very careful. If some bunny tried to eat my mom's flowers, it would learn how to fly from a kick start. For some people flowers are just as much of a pets as cats and dogs are and are valued as much.

[@shaystizzy]

Such a great movie. I do love Sally Field. I heard you mention Tom Hanks at the beginning of the video. Not sure if you've ever seen it, but The Burbs is one of my favorites of his.

[@moonqueen92]

I believe this may have been the first Robin Williams movie I watched as a young child and was instantly hooked! Me and my siblings would watch this on the reg back when video tapes were a thing haha he has sooo many fantastic movies of different genres (he's an incredible drama actor too) but I will suggest the movies "Jack" and "Jumanji", favourites of mine when I was a child. Get ready for RW to become one of your favourite actors/comedians :) RIP RW

I loved this movie as a kid so much, lmao. I'm so glad to see you enjoyed it! :) It's so cool to get to see someone watch these things for the very first time. You have so many amazing movies ahead of you! Thank you for sharing your reactions with us, I look forward to every video!

Thank you so much!

Hey Sam, this is one of RW best movies. First time I ever saw Robin though was in an episode of Happy Days when he first played- Mork, which he was so great...they put together a show of his own - Mork & Mindy. It was just one of those many wholesome 1970's shows that I grew up with. Robin was a shooting star of Tv-Film and stage. He was one of the very few I could actually watch do a Comedy show on HBO whom I could just give a pass on the cussing cause his mind ran at 1,000 mph! He was sharp, smart, and a deep thinker. I know others have named some of his movies, to me I really have adored him - The Night at the Museum films. (Stay far away from-- What dreams may come! It was bad and just really depressing!😒) Glad you enjoyed this one, it is a Comedy classic. And Sally Field has always just been such a top notch actress. A few of her best films to me is-- Not without my daughter, Eye for an Eye, and Kiss me goodbye.

[@hainstol]

one of my favorite Robin Williams' performances and movies in general is the Bird Cage

[@tomyoung9049]

I'll spare you the huge list of Robin Williams films but look forward to you discovering his talent on screen. This is such a fun, sweet movie. I will give a vote for Good Morning Vietnam to put on your list.

[@JMac7395]

I understand Miranda's personal need to divorce Daniel. However I don't understand why she didn't want to share custody of the kids. Daniel may have been a bad husband but he wasn't a bad father. I think Miranda was purposefully depriving Daniel of the kids to make him unhappy, just as she was unhappy in their marriage

[@curtismurphy6206]

He may not have been a bad father but he was widely irresponsible.

[@that.ll_do_pig]

@@curtismurphy6206 not a reason to keep kids away from him.

[@notavailable8201]

That and she could've at least not have mentioned the divorce in front of the kids on their sons birthday could've waited till the next day or when they was asleep to discuss it

[@kateiannacone2698]

I will speak in Miranda's defense here. It seems like this was building up for a while. And I don't think it's so much that she didn't want to share custody as that the court awarded her custody because Daniel didn't have a stable home or a steady job. It wasn't that she was actively trying to keep the kids from him. She was certainly being inconsiderate of their time together, but I don't think she was actively trying to keep them from him at first.

[@cryingtomatohead8626]

@@that.ll_do_pig That's actually a completely valid reason to keep him away from the kids. Being a good guy doesn't excuse you from exposing your kids to dangerous situations.

[@fingolfin897]

I'm glad this is the first Live Action Robin Williams movie you're seeing, it's his best (imo)

[@christopherlundgren1700]

The Robin Williams catalogue is DEEP. There's quite a few that are not so great, or just really weird, but his best films are incredible. Some of my favorites in chronological order: Good Morning Vietnam, Dead Poet's Society, Awakenings, The Fisher King, Hook, Good Will Hunting

[@DavidB-2268]

No one ever mentions Survivors, with Walter Matthau.

As a child who lost everything when my parents divorced… This movie means the world

[@JakandNic]

Robin Williams was the most incredible person. The world didn’t deserve him. God bless him. Definitely need to check out his filmography, Jack should definitely be a must watch x

[@orangewarm1]

Comic genius. Funniest, most talented guy in the western world when he was alive.

[@JRBOOLERS]

You've committed a crime against yourself by depriving yourself of the amazingness that was Robin Williams 🙌🙌🙌👌👌👌🤣 Jumanji next please 🙏 the original

[@OGBReacts]

I KNOWWWW I'll be better now haha

[@skyhawksailor8736]

You should watch one of Robin Williams' best movies, Good Morning Vietnam, based on the real life American Soldier. Funny and moving.

[@nickperkins8477]

Another great Robin Williams movie is Good Morning Vietnam. It’s the first movie for which he was ever nominated for an Oscar, and an early look in movies of how versatile he was at acting comedy and drama.

[@OGBReacts]

I actually reacted to Good Morning Vietnam as well!

[@mcgilj1]

I never understood this when I was younger.. But what I've found I really truly enjoy about this film. There is no just real evil mustache twirling bad guy. You can see all sides. And even the new guy dating isn't some sleazy I hate kids guy. At the end of the day? Stu even isn't a bad guy.

[@erinpauley9047]

The Birdcage!

[@benjaminrupe5930]

Man of the Year w/ Christopher Walken, Laura Linney and Lewis Black is a great Robin Williams movie that doesn't get enough attention, as is Bicentennial Man with Sam Neil and Oliver Platt. World's Greatest Dad, written and directed by Bobcat Goldthwait is dark, strange, funny and sad all at the same time..

[@nancyomalley6286]

I don't wear heels either! Even my dress shoes are FLAT!

[@davecondreay]

the robin williams film Patch Adams is a MUST. it's a true story and super funny, Also RV

[@moquips]

Robin Williams is best known for his comedies, but his more serious roles are great as well. "Good Morning Vietnam!" has a bit of both.

[@DAM89]

Dead poets society, Awakenings & Good will hunting, three great Robin Williams dramas

[@Otokichi786]

Good morning Tovarich, "Moscow on the Hudson"

How many of you watched this as a kid and saw Miranda as the villain but when you grew up, you then understood both sides of what Daniel and Miranda are going through?

This is easily the best MD reaction on KZbin. You really get the humour :)

This was the first PG-13 movie I ever saw in theaters, long before I was 13. I didn't understand everything but do remember enjoying it immensely at that time. Still do. I'm 35, so this movie came out when I was seven.
