Stuntmen React to Bad & Great Hollywood Stunts 1 

It seems a little hypocritical to me that Cavill reloading his biceps is action movie gold, but the random stunt guy showing off with a 360 in his beloved star wars is a travesty.

@@theadamholly No it's not. Last Jedi was shit and that fight scene was terrible.

@@Schizm1 THANK YOU! PREACH THE TRUTH!!!

@@theadamholly Not hypocritical when the Last Jedi film was garbage.

@@theadamholly Henry Cavill's "reloading" looks good because it's framed as a story moment in the scene whereas the spinning in The Last Jedi is a technical means to an end (stall time till the actors are in place).

I really wish I could find a way to edit the 12ga slide rack into the actual movie, just to mess with some friends.

Hahah I love how he phrased that "reload his biceps" 😂

around 250 rounds :p

@@mawortz so the Calico M-950 of biceps?

@@alistairwillock7266 tbh jet li in lethal weapon is too strong that make it looks fake.. for me that asian guy looks more strong because he also get beat up.. i don't really know why, but i think it makes the fight looks more real.. it also same for henry cavill here.. he looks more indestructible than any his superman movie (like on top comment say)

get more stuntman/woman to react,make it a series like your VFX react series.

Derek Ban yeah it’s a must! He’s the best!

Very true, but also a lot of the stunts in his movies - they just went ahead and did the real thing due to being in Hong Kong and to the lack of budget or time to do it “safely”

Jackie Chan is a legend. 😍

My favorite was watching the ends of the movies when they showed his stunts going wrong. I can’t remember the movie but he broke his ankle jumping onto a barge, then they show Jackie doing a bunch of stunts with a cast on.

RIP JACKIE CHAN, HE'S PASSED AWAY 🙏 Edit: Lol guys you need to calm down. It's just a joke. Ngl I had the same reaction when I seen the meme of this so I wanted to test it on you guys lmao 😂

yeah, kudos to Eric for shitting on fellow stunt performers work. What a guy!

My problem with the Punisher season 2 fight scenes wasn't the execution and choreography, which were very well done. My problem was with the lack of motivation and connection to the story with them. Throwing nameless mooks at the hero just gets boring after a while, regardless of how awesome the fighting is. My favorite fight scenes are always just as much about the drama and story as they are about the fight. This fight scene from Rob Roy is probably one of my all time favorites: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ERmM5l2ceoY.html Not only have the stakes of the film and the conflict between the characters been building to this moment, but the scene also calls back character stuff that was established in previous scenes. For example, in previous scenes, Liam Neeson was able to escape from the bad guy because he did something very surprising and completely unexpected. Here, the same thing happens, even though the villain is a much better swordsman.

Way too brutal, poor faces ^^

It was a money shot.

Andi H They were smart to put it in the trailer too, great marketing and it payed off Fantastic film

What's funny is Henry just made it ip and they had him do it again for real.

One time while I was working in a warehouse in the middle of the night, I had to pick something up and my long sleeves were uncomfortable, so I flicked both my wrists out causing the sleeves to hike up my forearms a little bit, and I stopped in my tracks like, "Ohhhhhhh" lol

there is also good story behind it .. first time he did it accidentally, not thinking about it, during the repeat scene he didnt do it and director asked him to do it again with the hands, Henry asked what hands .. and it got into movie. Henry talked about it somewhere.

​@@doingmypart666 I think I saw him talking about that on Graham Norton

I always assumed he was just pulling his sleeves from his shirt back for fighting, so that his elbows/shoulders weren't getting caught or resisting his punches. At least that's what I have always assumed when I've seen people do a quick jab out like that

The story is even funnier because after doing the "arm reload" Henry got really embarrassed and couldn't replicate it. So they used the original and had to splice it into 2 different scenes. If you watch very carefully his beard grows longer and a pocket magically appears on his shirt😂😂😂(different shooting day) Its so well hidden and such a good shot that I'm surprised that they don't talk about it here.

"What is it that makes this film bad? Well, go to... go to the beginning" (Tears ensue)

Case in point: Tom Cruise jumping roof-to-roof.

​@@AJDOLDCHANNELARCHIVE Nah TLJ was good, definitely needs to have an edit tho :]

@@_vakas TLJ is a dumpster fire.

Yeah right. But I get the feeling a lot of people get these two mixed up.

A lot of fools

i mean he really meant from the beinning but the beginning of the hole movie cuss its crap

Cabbage nah. TLJ is excellent

@@ReySkywalker2 hell no

Cabbage hell yeah. Best SW film, with TROS, TESB and ROTS.

@@ReySkywalker2 nah

Daredevil season 1. 20 goons, one hero, one take. ONE! TAKE!.

The corridor scene in Danny the dog. Jet Li at his best

Also all of the fight scenes in THE RAID 2. Specially the club scene. Oh and the hallway scene in Oldboy (2001).

Both The Raid movies are on a level of their own. Also, there's a thai (vietnamese?) movie called Chocolate. They have a stunt blooper reel at the end. I still go back to it from time to time to witness the crazyness of these stuntmen.

chocolate is a thai movie..yup, they were serious about their stunt

The raid 2 they have to review the camera work for the car chase!

Oh please, john wick 1-3

agreed on all, me and the GF watched legend of drunken master last night, the end fight scene is still unreal. especially when he has to jump out of a burning furnace pit and the bloopers when a giant cast pot falls and he doesnt make it before it catches his shoulder.

Was just coming to suggest The raid. Lol.

Director was an established second unit director, which directs action sequences

Next Episode i guess

they literally talked about how awesome scenes directed by a stunt coordinator look...then didn't even MENTION John Wick. wtf.

They can't do everything in one episode.

Probably waiting to have a whole episode for it

Except he fails to understand the narrative of the movie he's commenting on. "Why isn't Rey jumping around with Force powers?!?" I dunno, dude; maybe because she learned she had any connection to the Force at all only a few months prior, and she's had about one and a half lessons from a reluctant teacher? "Why isn't she as good as the two guys who had been monastically training for decades?" … Come on.

@@wbfaulk still a shit scene

​@wbfaulk yet she was able to do a Jedi mind trick the first movie with ZERO training, raise boulders the 2nd movie, etc..... she was written to be able to grasp the force extremely easily. Obviously YOU failed to understand the narrative there champ 😉👍

@@Orion-V All the things you mention happen in a later movie, written and directed by a different person. There's a reasonable complaint to be made about the inconsistency of the trilogy, but the internal logic of this scene, based off of the prior events, is fine. The sequel trilogy is definitely sloppy with this stuff, but this doesn't seem like a good instance of it. I will also definitely agree that this fight scene is badly choreographed and/or edited, with the guards waiting for their cues, etc., but it's simply not resolved by flipping around more.

Ronin and Bourne Identity were superb! I hated Baby Driver, too much editing for my taste. They made so many cuts for some of the scenes, they couldn't look more fake.

Death Proof too!!!

And please no FnF. They really suck

"The Driver"

Matrix Reloaded! the bike scene!

DuckeH oh man Rush Hour would be good. They can even show those outtakes of him failing to flip the table (and really hurting himself).

Epic Wolverine Oh my god, yessss!!!

How can you forget my fellow thai stuntman Tony Jaa

All the others are awesome especially John Wick, but you just reminded me how great the Snowpiercer stunts were, I didn't even pay attention to it at first, but it was really well choreographed especially that one scene with all the masked guys, that was such a fucking good scene and felt so seamless.

And batman vs superman warehouse scene

Fucking savage

@@dauntlessnicholas1672 Hell yeah man

of the whole movie, then delete it.

Good to know a stunt man thought Last Jedi was trash too.

Honestly, they weren't hard enough on it. They could probably do a whole episode just on that fight alone.

This happens in all group fight scenes large or small, blockbuster or indie, not just Last Jedi. It's fucking awful. There's always some idiot hanging back or doing something unnecessary, just watch the background actors in any large fight scene

Myztik Yeah ummm John Wick rarely has a guy just beating his meat in the background. That’s why I love those movies, besides the choreography.

@@myztik5716 Even The Raid movies are guilty of this shit.

Something that should be pointed out is that the way the scene is set up is trying SUPER hard to hide that stuff in the moment, though. We've got both our main characters, one in white and the other in black, right in the middle of the frame with everyone else wearing bright red with red weapons on a red background, so when you're just casually watching the film, all you're really catching is the reactions of the main characters and the fact that movement is happening in your peripherals. And because it's done in pretty long takes without using stuntmen, things aren't going to work out perfectly, but you can tell that everything about how its shot is trying to get around that as much as possible. That's kind-of why I feel like it gets a bit too much flack, right? Because this is pretty standard and you can tell they're trying to make things work in a way where you won't really tell mid-film because the big point is that these two characters are working together to overcome these guys. So they want everything to be focused on these characters with a lot of focus on their faces and actions. But because it's Star Wars, I feel like it gets a lot more hate than it really deserves because people are extra critical of the new films overall due to nostalgia and stuff.

@@cobaltroguex first one nope, second yes. in first one, you can see in background enemies doing some stuff with other characters.

I just wrote a similar comment :D That little section in the trailer is what made me go watch it. He looks like a bull that's about to start charging. Definitely one of the most badass fight-entering scenes ever.

@@SpydersByte Definitley, but when I watched this reaction and as soon as the stunt guy droped that line I cracked up.

@@Erock_1995 yea me too :D

Cavill is really underrated as an action star. I think because Superman doesn't need to fight that much we get lost in that. He needs to do more films like MA.

@Tyrell Suraiya well it was my point of Superman doesn't really need to fight because of who he is. So people really don't know Cavill as being someone who can do fight scenes like this. And he's great at it.

yes please!!!

+1 on The Raid. And add in Ong Bak

That hallway scene...he must have killed half of Jakarta,it's relentlessly brilliant

yesssss

oldboy is overrated besides that hallway fight scene daredevils adaption of it was kind of bland.

I agree certainly the two on one scene from the first raid, one of my favorite fighting scenes ever

The hallway gauntlet is just the best

You beat me to it. Definitely my favourites. Those 2 flicks are ridic.

Was going to comment the same thing but I’m glad someone beat me to it!

@@campbellcarroll7279 they could dedicate a whole episode on the 2 movies alone! Would be sweet!

faabyy21 and Captain America vs Winter soldier in the streets

@@kstreet1162 ^^^

Also cap vs Batroc on the ship!

They should get Chris Brewster to do those, since it was actually him. But yes

TLJ was a colossal failure and Rian Johnson never needs to direct another Star Wars movie again.

Did you read your comment back to yourself? Cause it's really stupid.

@@notatroll4242 What are you talking about? They actually did the editing mistake that he mentioned.

@@DocHollidayGames "litteraly" "cause if he stilled had that knife thing" "guards knives things"

notAtroll English may not be his primary language, but we understood the point he was making

yeah i thought they would do that but didnt

I'd love to see John Wick break down some of the stuff around you guys.

Those scenes were ugly AF

@Dio Falkner you take that back!!!

@Dio Falkner No sir...absolutely wrong

Talk about a classic!

Fantastic scene! Most of those hits, especially from the wood planks, just look like they're real, I'd love to know what's full contact and what's not

Love that fight. Think you can pick apart anything... but that fight just “feels” great!!... new one not so much

Yes, the mother of all fights.

Isabelle Hrubec I mean, they did acknowledge it pretty early on in the video...

And then discussed it during the pre-vis scene. Though i'm not really sure that counts as pre-vis so much as rehearsal and choreographing...

Speaking about Punisher, the guy with the curly hair looks like Danny Rand.

YES

You mean Keanu himself? He did 99% of it, it's amazing.

I'm glad I'm not the only one bothered by that xD

That’s where I had to turn it off.

If he decided to quit being a stuntman, he'll certainly have a future in ASMR.

This is all of us.

Right? I really wish they talked about how weapons disappear between shots like the one guard with two small swords had a wide open shot on Rey and his sword randomly disappears

Yeah. I hate how Disney fucks up this Series. The Potential of it was great, but all that came out was way below average. But, hey: Disney. 'Nuff said.

I knew that the throne room scene was bad. I just did not know it was REALLY bad!!

How is this bad? Let's start at the beginning!

Tom Cruise is insane,he actually learned how to pilot a helicopter for Fallout,it´s actually him flying that thing! The whole chopper chase in the mountains is done with real helicopters,they used CGI only for the crash scene,everything else is real!

The best comment so far... I feel your pain. Lol

Yawning is hard work too.

+Magda Brie Larson does her own stunts too though... :P

YES, THIS!

If they do this they should 100% include scenes from Mr. Robot

@@goramboup2534 and Kill Bill!

That would be so boring

@@foreheadman3361 but why?

Nothing but cuts.

The fight scenes in that movie were the peak fight scenes of the MCU. Cap v Winter Soldier? Iconic. Elevator fight scene? Legendary. The only one that can top it is the final battle in Endgame.

@@moist_captain But you can see the action really clear despite the cuts, as well as the actor's faces, so you know they are doing the fight themselves. The choreography is pretty complicated, with sequences like flying knee kick, knife flip, spinning kick so I don't blame them for cuts. It's impossible to do the full fight in a single take unless you're an actual martial artist like Jackie Chan.

Kyle B hmm yeah that’s true. Personally i separate them into categories of “Best Fights” and “Best Battles” bc it feels weird to compare the two.

Kyle B but it doesn’t even matter because Captain America gets the last laugh in both cases 😂

Oh yes

That's the one that's almost one entire take, right?

EPBИH I would highly consider watching other Korean action/thriller movies, they have just as awesome, realistic looking fight scenes.

I actually just commented this before seeing this one that's was already posted! Hope they see it

EPBИH oh yea, I fully agree, it was my first Korean movie, too, but then on I fully embraced other Korean movies and realized that Oldboy has some competition. I would say that the movie is better than the original manga.

Agreed bro. Excellent demonstration of the silat martial arts.

Try REVENGER MOVIE. Not a big plot but you will love action.

I look up to this movie whenever I think about filming fight scenes. Artful yet so brutal

@@veervikramsingh6529 It's in my queue, but I made a mistake and looked at the reviews lol. I'll get to it eventually.

Andrew Davison I was thinking the same thing

What about the first one...the machete scene in the hallway?

and the final knife fight.

No the 10 minutes season three fight with bullseye was epic.

Yes! - plus Season 3's whole Prison Break one-shot.

Season 2 was even better imo

Just to be clear, Jackie hanging from the clock was a nod to Lloyd not the train clip, which of course is Buster.

@@spellboundty yeah, totally.

...and he elaborates why. I didn't pay attention before, just sensed this was lame and forgettable, but he got every point there. Also - it's mind boggling one tv series like his punisher work has really unprecedentedly better stunts and fights than this hundred million dollar budget blockbuster.

@@newginslab6993 Not only that but they always use Harold's most famous scene when making that mistake. Even if they haven't seen the movie itself, nearly everyone has at least seen the image or a poster of Harold hanging from the clock. It kind of makes me go crazy when I see it mislabeled as Buster Keaton (or somebody else other than Harold). For anyone curious, the name of the film is "Safety Last!" and I highly recommend watching it sometime if you get the chance. The whole movie is great!

@@reactions5783 well, for me, except the foreigner.

I second all of that. The Batman Warehouse scene would have been perfect in this video, right after the TLJ scene, because it shows the exact same thing done right.

Iko is goddamn amazing, mad dog too.

All of The Raid 1 and 2 were just mental. I swear those movies are legit real fights.

Yes

The behind the scenes for the raid are crazy. The choreograph the fuck out of those films. They were already working on the 2nd film before the 1st released in theaters. And apparently the cast was encouraged to spend time together and become friends so that when they inevitably took a hard hit, it would be easier not to be mad at the person.

Bro that would be sick

I was hopin for it..
