CONSPIRACY THEORY (1997) | FIRST TIME WATCHING | MOVIE REACTION

[@Cadinho93]

According to Richard Donner, Mel Gibson improvised the opening scenes in which his character expounds his conspiracy theories to a succession of passengers. Also, thank God finally somebody reacted to this movie and I am glad that it was you, Cassie.

[@kpiperjr]

Right? I've been suggesting this movie to several reactors, and nobody does it. I eventually started to figure it must be one of the movies that gets blocked all the time.

[@paulpolpiboon9535]

This!

[@menelikiii5004]

Lol considering recent events that makes sense

[@mcfcguvnors]

@@kpiperjr cos most reactrors steal content ( off You Tube that has no edits or cuts or pauses _ they wait for some other mug to do it 1st , theres actually little need for the smeg screen or the constant cuts Keyser soze scene is intact full non copyright & thats a 7 minute scene - yet every reactor ruins it . Cassie gave herself away when she said brainwashed in the opening scene = shes already seen it as all of them have ( its how you get the edit & scenes right to not miss vital plot or dialogue ) . This is not like MOST female ractor channels , she isnt trying to get a modeling contract ,or sell some crappy make up ,she seems like a stay at home mum who just used the oldest trick on You Tube . I hate 99 % of these people & i tell them straight but shes a nice person & apart from the awful promos she does a good edit , just need them scenes longer but then others would steal them n just paste themselves over cassies live stream feed :/

PointlessHub has a hilarious video about how insane this movie is, I highly recommend it for anyone who likes the film.

There was a behind the scene moment after filming this movie, where Mel Gibson asked Julie Roberts for a ride to another set. A camera was setup in the parking lot without her knowing and when they pulled up to a truck, she turned to see the driver and freaked out. The driver was Danny Glover and right away she knew they were on the set for “Lethal Weapon 4”.

Since it seems not many people get the reference, the Warner Bros cartoon clips that keep showing when Jerry is having episodes and is given "gravy" is a cartoon called 'Chow Hound' where a dog uses a mouse and a cat to do his scam of convincing home owners they need a cat to chase a mouse he plants and is given the reward the cat gets in the form of pet food, steak and so on, and the dog's constant complaint is "What, no gravy!?" before he slaps the cat and mouse. By the end, when the dog gets his big score and eats a whole butcher shop he buys, as he is on the hospital table very fat and unable to move and two steps away from a heart attack, the cat and the mouse show up and remind him "We didn't forget the gravy." and basically force feed it to the dog. Dark stuff.

Nice reaction. It's been suggested to do Bird On A Wire (1990) and I concur. Payback is really cool. Mel has been doing lower budget films the last number of years, one of them being Boneyard, apparently based on a true story. Mel played an unorthodox Santa Claus in a film called Fatman (2020). Just a few other ideas for some cheesy fun. "Patrick Stewart is the bad guy?!" Yes, finally as a bad apple lol.

There’s a wonderful outtake from this movie where Julia Roberts’ character is driving somewhere, and as her car is at a stop sign, she’s surprised to see not Mel Gibson, but his Lethal Weapon co-star Danny Glover. Julia, very surprised to see him said “Is this a scene from Lethal Weapon 4 we’re shooting?” (Or something to that effect)

I also clipped words out of magazines and made little messages with them on my dresser.

I was watching to see how she'd react to seeing his name in the credits. She flipped out at seeing Richard Donner's name so I figured the reaction for Stewart would be even bigger. Then she started googling and I started hoping she'd be distracted when Stewart's name came up - and sure enough, it happened. So then I started watching to see how she'd react when Stewart appeared. But when he did, it was all backlit silhouettes and close-ups on his eyes and shots from awkward angles and his voice was mostly muffled/garbled. But still, I thought maybe there was enough for her to recognize or at least suspect. But nope, nothing. When she finally realized, though... yep, there it was. I knew there would be something akin to a "Jean-Luc as a bad guy? Nooooooo". Mostly because that was MY reaction when I first saw this movie.

She missed the Captain’s credit whilst looking up Donner!

Omg! I am glad you discovered this movie. I have seen it so many times. This movies is amazing! ❤

The horse farm used is in Lionshare Farm in Greenwich, Connecticut. The facility is owned by United States Equestrian Team member Peter Leone-who coached Julia Roberts through the scene at movie's end, where she gallops her horse across a field while Mel Gibson's character looks on longingly from a vehicle driving on a nearby road.

"Jonas has no affiliation...", made me laugh :) If you're into historical dramas, there's an old British miniseries with Derek Jacobi (as the titular roman character) called "I, Claudius" from 1976... it has various actors that might be recognizable by many such as Sian Phillips, John Hurt, Brian Blessed aaaand... Patrick Stewart as Sejanus, Emperor Tiberius' right hand man. By the way, maybe others have mentioned, the movie playing in the theater where Jerry hides is "Ladyhawke" (1985, also from Richard Donner), a pretty good film with Rutger Hauer, Michelle Pfeiffer and Matthew Broderick. Also, check out "Payback" (1999) for a grittier and harder character by Gibson :)

Two great actors playing off each other. So cool.

[@miorandmior]

You just do not have writers nor actors of this calibre today. Julia Roberts, as always, was sublime here. And Mel? What else can you say. You can feel his pain.

I really enjoyed your reaction to this well done and underrated film! I hadn't seen it in a very long time and forgot how good it was.

[@stephanieblackmore1461]

The part when Julia Roberts is half crying/screaming “Somebody Help me please!” Always chokes me up. It was the first time I’ve ever gotten a chill from a movie

[@LovelessDogg1]

If she doesn't like seeing Patrick Stewart as the bad guy in this movie, wait until someone suggests the movie "Green Room" lol 😂

[@Big_BadaBom]

Serpico was a cop who was killed by other cops if im remembering correctly and i think they made a movie about him.

[@jerryreding7369]

Actually, Serpico is still alive, he's 88 years old. He was a whistleblower about police corruption in the NYPD in the 1960s-1970s.

Al Pacino was the lead in Serpico.

Cassie, you mentioned wanting to react to The Manchurian Candidate. Please make sure to add it to your list and make sure it’s the original version with Frank Sinatra and Lawrence Harvey. Such a classic!!

This is one of my favorite movies of all time (and no, I’m not a conspiracy theorist 😉). I watch it every couple years and it is always great. I think it is possibly Mel’s best role. It is not easy to play a person with those extreme mental issues and he does it SO well. And Julia and Patrick are great as well. I just love it.

[@ghostofyourmom]

Yeah, the guy doesn't believe the Holocaust was real, and thinks Jews are behind everything. Of course he played this role well; he wasn't actually acting. Lol

"Jonas has no affiliation with Jean-Luc Picard or Professor X. NO AFFILIATION!" Ha!

Serpico is a NYPD officer who's true life storie became a box-office hit, starring Al Pacino, you'd love the movie.

[@Yelnats87]

I'm truly shocked you said you're watching Slow Horses! Truly one of my favourite tv series here in the UK atm. Just a pleasant surprise, as it's a great sleeper series... I don't even know many Brit's that have watched it! Kudos indeed! 🤙 Gary O is epic in it!

[@backgroundMASCAL]

watch "Edge of Darkness" from 2010 ,also starring Mel Gibson. It will blow your mind.😉

[@xenontouchstone]

You really should watch Mel in Bird on a Wire, with Goldie Horn, its in a similar vein to this.

[@bobblebardsley]

Conspiracy Theory is a solid 8/10, anyone who rates it lower is either plain cynical or else they didn't understand it. Yeah parts of it are kinda crazy but that's literally the title of the movie. From the initial premise, they made something very strong, the love story is complex but actually makes sense, and the ending puts you through all the right emotions without feeling like it just pulled the rug from under you. I haven't watched it in full TOO many times, but definitely more than once, and I love it. Mel Gibson and Julia Roberts at their peak.

[@mofosoto]

Great choice! I don’t think anyone has reacted to this one yet

The sad part is that Jerry is real. MK Ultra was declassified and real. They made several Jerry's.

@@DogsofWar90 Chaos by Tom O’Neill was a fantastic book going deep into the Manson/CIA relationship.

Payback is another Gem of Mel Gibson , the 90s had these sort of low budget less known movies that were amazing , sadly you don't see similar movies nowadays

[@ChrisStockley]

You should check out Safe House, an underrated gem with a wonderful performance by Patrick Stewart.
