SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION (1994) FIRST TIME WATCHING | MOVIE REACTION 

Video Reaction New Channel ru-vid.com/show-UC7Tq5b-AL_VS3XNWKcQ-hxA

Perfect script, perfect actors, perfect director equals a masterpiece. ❤❤❤

Red tells Andy "hope is a shitty pipe dream." That night Andy escapes through a shitty pipe. 😊

There are many great films in this world, but I don't think I will ever see one that has a more satisfying ending.

One of my favorite movies. Everything happens for a reason.

1995 Academy Awards: "The Shawshank Redemption" was nominated for Best Picture, but it lost to "Forrest Gump". That's a shame. It would have won Best Picture any other year, I think.

It's a movie of hope, "redemption", and friendship. ❤

“No human rights ! Like in our country *laughs maniacally*” You guys are great, loving your reactions. Back to the future 1 & 2 was awesome. As was this.

The Green Mile is the only movie close to this. You guys will enjoy it.... promise.

You’re right it’s one of the greatest movies ever

Haha, "Risk it for the biscuit." That was so awesome!

"Straight to hell". 🤭 agreed but why'd that make me laugh ..lol Thanks!

I saw this movie 30 years ago and had the same feelings and reactions as you gentlemen. It warms my heart to see that a great story is universal. I’m looking forward to watch more of your reactions. 🙂

This story came from a book written by Steven King. It was a book with four short stories. In the book, Red never goes down to Mexico. Red keeps the letter as his escape valve. Unlike Brooks, he has hope because of the letter. If things get to rough, he can always go see Andy. I think Red was afraid of going to Mexico and not finding Andy, but the idea of Andy being there for him kept him going.

One of the all time greatest movies ever made. Loved watching it again (lost count how many times) with you both. Love you guys, from another brother of a different mother here in the great American state of Texas. Hope y'all get to visit your new American friends here in our country sometime. In the meantime keep up the great work as one of my favorite reactors. May God bless and keep you both my brothers. Peace

Love you guys. Keep up the good work

This is my favorite movie and I never get tired of watching it.

This movie always makes me cry happy tears at the end 😊

My favorite movie also, Thank You for watching it

Evening! The prison used was the Ohio State Reformatory tn Mansfield, Ohio. The city buildings were in Mansfield, and many were back-dated on their exteriors to fit time period. Many have kept the revised look. The prison that you see is preserved as a museum. It was also used for Tango and Cash, and was the Russian Cell block in American President. I was fortunate to be an extra in the prison yard. The premiere was held at Mansfield's Renaissance Theatre before California or New York. I am now 74, but always watch it when I can.

At the beginning during the shower the white powder is delousing powder, (Tin of insecticide). It's to make sure a prison isn't taken over by various micro bugs, such as lice, bed bugs, etc.

I always enjoy watching along with you two young gentlemen. This is a great movie for this as it has profound themes, events, lessons and relationships. I look forward to joining you again soon.

You said it right, "men in power"...you will love Shawshank Redemption.

Thanks, guys. Regarding the warden being a Christian or not, we all know that in every religion there are those that do not live according to what they profess. Here in the US, there is a group of believers that are being misled, and I fear, radicalized. Sad to see, but it seems to be a growing trend.

I just came upon your channel and I really enjoyed your reaction to this. I’m am subscribing now and can’t wait to see more of your reactions. I hope you have success in this and peace and love to you. Nate from Boston.

Love your reaction. Such a classic. Gonna watch more of your channel now!

Thanks boys, great reaction.

It is no real story, it is based on a novella by Stephen (and not "Steven") King, it's called Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption. The Book is called Different Seasons. The Director, Frank Darabont, would make another movie 5 Years later, called The Green Mile. Also a prison movie, also based on a Story by Stephen King. Then, in 2007, he would make The Mist.

Outstanding Gentleman, enjoyed watching 😊, thanks for sharing 😊👍✌️🇺🇸

Love yalls channel. Keep it going! 👍

This movie touches the soul. It stays with you. ❤️

Thanks bros, great reaction. I'm a fan!

love your reactions more more more ;)

I just stumbled on your reaction tonight. Count me as a new subscriber. By the way, I used to teach English as a Foreign Language in Yemen and Kuwait. I'm really impressed at your ability to pick up on some very nuanced language in the film. I also like some the idiomatic expressions you used such as "spilled the beans" and "risk it for the biscuit." I look forward to watching more of your reactions in the future, inshallah.

Thanks guys great reaction

Red's line about "being Irish" is from the story. In the book, he's a white guy with red hair which, in America, will lead most people to assume (more or less correctly) that your family is of either Irish or Scottish descent. When they adapted the story to the screen, they kept the line because they didn't have anyone in mind for the role of Red and assumed they'd cast a white guy. Morgan Freeman was the last guy cast, and he opted to keep the line as a joke. It might also have been a reference to Malcom X who, during his prison/hustler days (which were at the same time this movie takes place) was known as "Detroit Red" because he came from Detroit and had red hair. If you liked this one, try The Green Mile, which is another Stephen King novel set in a prison during the first half of the 20th century and adapted and directed for the screen by Frank Darabont which people love. The Mist is another King/Darabont collab, but that's a straight up horror movie (it's also very good). Lastly, if you want more of Shawshank Prison, the Hulu series Castle Rock, while not based on any one particular Stephen King novel or story, is a continuation/"remix" of a bunch of them and is centered in part on the prison. It's pretty good, but not exactly great at any point and it ends unfinished. As you and others have said, stuff like this goes on all the time in American prisons, and prisons all over the world (except maybe Sweden, where the prisons are nicer than some college dorms I've been in and they confine their institutional abuse to Kafka-esque psychological torture of Anders Brevik, who basically has it coming, and more besides, frankly). Anything by Radley Balko is good coverage of "what goes on" in the US, and Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn's classic "The Gulag Archipelago" is an exploration of the impulses and theory underpinning institutional brutality as seen through the lens of Russia's gulag system. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

You guys do a great job. 👍

Red, the narrator has planned and carried out his wife's murder by disabling her brakes, which accidentally killed a neighbor and child as well. Stephen King's novel provides the answer

Me and my dad rented a house across the street from the rock wall in Buxton back in 2014. :) We didn't know it was THAT wall until a neighbor told us.

my favorite movie

"What a way to go," you commented. By one's own hand AND alone. By the end of the movie, it's plain somebody doesn't want Brooks to be alone, wants Brooks to be remembered.

You guys are the best! Thx for setting up a channel., One thing, tho: you're probably private people but I think many people would like to hear more of your thoughts at the end, morally, ethically, as human beings. Maybe your culture doesn't allow it but perhaps you could push th envelope a bit.

If you liked this film, another great one to watch is 'The Green Mile'. Same writer (Stephen King) and same director (Frank Darabont).

Great movie

i first watched this movie by accident ,it was awesome.

Let me recommend you some of the best movies ever made : -Casablanca -Seven Samurai -12 Angry Men -Apocalypse Now -In the Mood For Love -Cidade de Deus -La Dolce Vita -The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly -Parasite (2019) -Schindler's List -Memento

i miss yalls reactions to videos :( . did yall get too many strikes or something? been a member of the channel for about 2 or 3 months now i think 2. i love your channel and love u guys and i plan on being a channel member forever lol! ill pay 5 bucks a month for the awesomeness uou guys provide! love from kentucky usa

We need, "What the fudge...man" shirts.

This is one of my favourite movies of all time, thanks guys and when it comes to movies might I suggest Casablanca with Humphrey Bogart? It's a fantastic movie if you're interested, anyway take care of yourselves guys.

This is one of the best movies ever. Delighted that you both thought so also. Hey, can I recommend a movie to you?

Since you guys liked this one so much, you should watch Escape From Alcatraz (if you haven't already); that one's based on a true story & even features one of the most loved people from the prison, The Birdman of Alcatraz, as well as one of the most infamous, Al Capone, & stars Clint Eastwood.

Für mich einer der besten Bücher von Stephen King......

You guys picked a REAL WINNER!

These cumulative jail sentences (like two lifetimes etc.) in USA jurisdiction have multiple reasons. It can be multiple separate convictions added together. There can be aggravating circumstances regarding the particularly heinous crimes. Some US states also seem to have the "three strikes" policy, where repeated criminal conviction results in much harsher punishment if convicted for the 3rd time etc

12:25 ayy lmao... bruh...

Just FYI, this is based on a novella by Stephen King called "Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption", and it's one of the few cases I've found where the movie is actually better than the book. The director who worked on this movie also directed "The Green Mile", another movie based on a Stephen King book (that you should totally watch).

The hungarian title of this film is "Prisoners of hope". Much more better than original.

The human spirit is breakable only if you let it be. Please watch the Terry Fox movie. He was an amazing and inspiring man.🙏🏼

You guys should try and watch American History X

Oh please you must watch the green mile!!! It is just as good as this maybe even better! ❤

If you have not seen Life of Pi, you absolutely need to add to your viewing list ❤

You guys should watch Gattaca.

Hey try watching The Sandlot

The Warden was NOT a man of God - he was what we call a Wolf in Shepherds clothing - He was a fake. His number one Guard didn't even try to be a fake - he was just sadistic and cruel for the sake of being both. He was going to have a very misserable life in prison, the Warden though, he thinks he got out of suffering - wait until he meets the devil and goes through agony forever!

God is Hope

It's funny how you guess it right before it happened

Check out Men of Honor. The true story of the first black men becoming a US Navy Master Diver in the US Navy.. The odds he fights and the cost he pays is just beyond anything.🔉🏅 🏅 ⚓ ⚓ 🏅 🔉

Guards can't get away with this kind of abuse these days. Yea prisons are tough places especially max security prisons in US . But honestly there are many places in the world where their prisons make US prisons look like day camp

Not sure if you guys are familiar with SpongeBob SquarePants lol, but Clancy Brown, that God awful main guard, does the voice for Mr. Krabs.

People guess there's a hole only after the fuzzy britches remark from the Warden, Director should've left that out

Idk if anyone said this person but I believe a life sentence is considered 72 years. So double life sentence should be about 140 years in prison

The more things change, the more they stay the same. As documented by the ACLU: “Juan Pablo Reyes was punched by Los Angeles County sheriff’s deputies over and over again in the ribs, mouth, and eyes, breaking his eye socket and leaving his body badly bruised. After falling to the ground, the deputies continued to kick Reyes, an inmate at the Los Angeles County Jail, with their steel-toed boots, ignoring his cries. "And the deputies didn’t stop there. "They ordered Reyes to strip and forced him to walk naked up and down the hallway of a housing module, in full view of other inmates. One deputy yelled, 'Gay boy walking.' Reyes began to cry, but the deputies just looked on and laughed. They then put him in a cell where he was beaten and sexually assaulted by other inmates. He desperately pled for help and to be removed from the cell, but to no avail. "In another incident, an inmate who discovered after deputies had searched all the cells in his row that some of his property was missing was savagely beaten after asking to speak to a sergeant. Deputies beat this inmate so violently he suffered a fractured jaw and required eye surgery and stitches in his ear. A deputy shoved him hard against a wall, slapped his ear, punched his face several times and then threw him to the ground. While on the ground, the inmate was kicked by the deputy roughly 10 times in his face, jaw and back of his head, causing a large pool of his blood to form on the floor. The inmate described the beating as being more painful than being hit by a car." (These are the kinds of abuses routinely committed by "law enforcement" officers in L.A. County -- and countless other places in the USA. In L.A., cops/deputies are organized into gangs and they have initiation rights like breaking the bones of a prisoner.)

According to the short story the movie was adapted from Brooks was in prison for murdering hid wife and two children.

All of the best movies are older.

watch green mile next ;)

Bro's, do a reaction for Kick Ass

Hey guys! You are getting all these movies from a different culture into your system. Maybe at some point you could give people some insight what has changed in your thinking. Don't watch too much though! It may fry your brains ;)

Not A True Story !!. Just Another "Brilliant" Short Story Made into A Movie By The Master Stephen King !! ❤❤

The Green Mile another great prison movie maybe better.

Dear Habibis, just take a second and think about the justice system in the middle east.

This is one of my favorite movies. I think you’ll enjoy The Green Mile.

The warden used religion to cover his unscrupulous, sadistic ways

They used Morgan Freeman's son for the younger picture of him on the parole papers

I didn't make it through the movie, because it was so unsettling. More of a guy movie, for sure. I'm glad it had a happy ending.

Guantanamo Bay is worse and real💔

The Warden is religious, not a man of God and not a Christian!

I couldn't hear it. So had to leave.
