BIG FISH (2003) Movie Reaction - FIRST TIME WATCHING 

And more Tim Burton has arrived! This time a film that I have been wanting to watch for a while now. Ewan was so great in this role and he stole every single frame he was in with his infectious smile. The creativity and heart that I found in this movie was so inspiring and just made me feel so happy. I loved every second of it! Thanks for watching and have a great day! :)

A Big Fish story is a story that gets more elaborate the more it is told. Basically, a guy catches an 18in fish but as he tells & retells the story the fish gets bigger and bigger 'til the fish is 6ft long and it took him almost 5 hrs to reel it in. This is what the son assumed the dad was doing but realized that while the stories were exaggerated a little they weren't exaggerated as much as he thought.

Glad someone finally did this - I love the part when the son goes on his quest and finds out the truth...his funeral is one of those sad/happy moments

Finally someone who reacts to Big Fish. All other "reactors" tend to just view the same old movies, but not you! Thanks a lot! More people need to watch this one!

One of Burton's best. Really captures the magic of storytelling. The son's story to his father at the end always gets a tear 😢 and the funeral is so beautifully done.

I said those lines to my dad. "Your embarrassing yourself dad and you don't see it" and I just watched this today and at the end the emotion was uncontrollable. My dad is getting older and we fish everyday and this shit hit me so hard. Like the shaking kind of crying damn I need to take this time and enjoy every damn sec.

Karl the Giant was actually a real actor not special effects, though they did use forced perspective to make him look a lot taller than he actually is. His name was Matthew Mcgrory and he held the Guinness Record for the Tallest Actor Ever. Sadly he passed away two years after making this movie of heart failure.

It’s about time someone reacted to this wonderful film. I’m early and so happy to see this.

The giants name is Matthew McGrory, he passed a few years back. He had a small career in film, mostly leaning towards the horror genre, but he definitely has chops, given his physical limits

So many brilliant Tim Burton movies, but I've always felt that this is definitely his Magnum Opus.

Fun, endearing, and an instant classic the moment it came out. Also one of my father's favorites. Fun Fact: The joke with the elephant defecating while Edward daydreams was unscripted. The filming crew found it hilarious, and quickly zoomed out to get the whole thing.

God, I love this movie. It may not be Burton's most famous film, but imo it's his best.

Finally someone reacting to this

Danny Elfman was Oscar nominated for his score of Big Fish. He should have won but Lord of the Rings won everything that year. The incredible impact of the movie's ending rides on Danny Elfman's ELEVEN MINUTE continuous orchestral cue flowing like a river all the way to the movie's end credits.

Tim Burton's Forrest Gump. Great movie, quite underrated

So happy to finally see a reaction to what I believe is a very underrated film. In my opinion, it is Tim Burton's best film.

I had trouble identifying the actress who played Josephine until you said it was Marion Cottiard. She played Miranda in THE DARK KNIGHT RISES.

Great video! I think Big Fish is one of the greatest films of the 21st century. This is Tim Burton’s mastery as a filmmaker and storyteller on display. I highly recommend you seeing and reacting to the 2014 Tim Burton film, “Big Eyes”. It’s quite a story and it’s based on a true story. I’ll say no more.

You're right, this movie deserves a higher rating. I'm afraid a lot of people just didn't get the message of this movie.

IMO, this is Tim Burton's masterpiece. I'm pretty sure it's better than every single movie he did before, and every single movie he's done since is far inferior.

I loved this movie! All the stories the father told were true but he added stuff to make them interesting. The giant would represent someone he met who was larger than life. The conjoined twins were just twins but he might have said they were together because they were so close to each other they were like one. It's all how you interpret it. Love at first sight can seem the world stops. Everything had a meaning. The nude woman in the lake was his temptation to be unfaithful to his wife. I've listened to people tell me stories that I think to myself how much are they making up to make it more interesting. It's a movie.....go along for the ride.

Hey @RolyPolyOllieReactions thanks so much for reviewing this movie. It's one of my favorites and also one of the few that'll make me cry like a little bitch, LOL. Thank you for taking me back in time!

Thank-you! This is one of my top 10 favorite movies, ever, and you did a wonderful job on your reaction.

So glad you finally watched this.. I love this movie.. An Absolute Gem..

I love watching reactions to Big Fish. Every single one ends the same way

I never saw this movie when it came out. I had no interest and when my friend made me watch it I was in aw. I’m not trying to make myself out to be a tough guy but I guess I kind of am and I cried through the last 40 mins of this movie. It immediately became one of my all time favorite movies. It’s beautiful. So I guess I’m a tough guy with a giant, kind and tender heart. Love your channel

Glad to see someone finally react to this. I've seen suggestions, but nobody ever watches it

Freaking finally Big Fish gets a reaction, that's why I follow you. That and your cool dog. And the lame jokes lol

Directed by Tim Burton starring primarily Ewan McGregor as a storyteller to his child

Don't know if anyone had said this, but, it was not North Korea, it was Vietnam, Vietnam War. Love this tho 💜 thank you for acknowledging this movie 😭💜

So glad you saw this! This movie deserves so much more attention. It’s so beautiful.

Thanks, Oliver! Thanks, Huxley! 🐟 #RolyPolyOllie #TimBurton #BigFish If you'd like to see more from Marion Cotillard, I suggest LA VIE EN ROSE (2007) and RUST AND BONE (2012).

That town w/ the green grass still exists some place but its all fallen to ruins etc...its still there!

Extremely emotional movie

As soon as he says story of my life. That was it for me

Always loved this movie and now your appreciation of it. Thank you.

She caught him with the wedding ring. Then when the time was right, she threw him back..

Must see movie if for no other reason than the Pearl Jam song, Man Of The Hour. Movie is great, too.

Tim Burton out-Spielberged Spielberg in this one.

This movie was composed by Danny Elfman

I've had this DVD for a while, bought it at a local thrift store. Would be watching it later but gotta watch some reviews first.

I would classify this as Tim Burton's version of Forrest Gump

Wonderful reaction. (This was a novel, adapted into a film.)🐟

Just thinking about these film suggestions that all have a common thread Batman Returns, Big Fish, Animal Crackers, Dumbo (live action remake)

I myself just watched this for the first time recently. Really good movie. Loved it 😁

I think your haircut looks nice. It’s not too short it’s just right.

Also starring Albert Finney

C'était sympathique, un bon spectateur, bon enfant. Pour information, le géant a vraiment existé dans la vraie vie. Malheureusement l'acteur est mort actuellement, il avait une rare maladie

Another movie that deserves more attention is Vanilla Sky, starring Tom Cruise. Maybe you can react to this. :)

This is a really good movie

Directed by Tim Burton starring Ewan McGregor in this movie about a man who lived a rather peculiar life. Also featuring Albert Finney as the older version on his death bed

Happy Birthday Hux!

Beautiful movie, wonderful reaction :) Thank you! If you've not seen Danny Elfman and Oingo Bongo's Live. Dead Man's Party video, you might want to check it out...Peace!

Your hair looks fine. Welcome home.

Such a beautiful film!
