The Green Mile (1999) MOVIE REACTION!! *FIRST TIME WATCHING* 

In the long list of actors who were robbed of an Oscar, I’ve always put Michael Clarke Duncan as John Coffey near the top, absolutely astounding performance.

“Mostly, I’m tired of people being ugly to each other” one of the most heartbreaking and beautiful lines ever.

Hannah has such a pure heart. I can tell just with this reaction she really cares about people. Wonderful reaction, you guys are great!

"The film ruins you to make you a better person.". 100 percent true.

I watched this movie for the first time on a transatlantic flight. I cried so hard the flight attendant was genuinely concerned for my well being. I was embarrassed when I said “I’m just watching Green Mile for the first time” 🥺

RIP Michael Clarke Duncan. He was such an amazing actor and perfectly cast for this role.

The wet sponge is extremely important. Soaking the scalp with brine water (water containing salt) conducts electricity more efficiently than just placing the skull cap of the electric chair on the flesh covering the scalp itself. Making the death quicker and, in theory, less painful. But it can’t be purified water, it HAS to be salt water. And the salt MUST be dissolved. Purified water containing no salt is actually an insulator, not a conductor. Fun fact: Most fresh water actually contains salt and other minerals naturally, but sometimes it’s only in small amounts. So they would dissolve extra salt into the water they used to soak the sponge just to ensure there was as little resistance as possible so that the electrical current fried the brain faster. Also, pool water is actually a very good conductor because the chlorine used to treat it contains chlorine ions that conduct electricity very efficiently. Which is why most public pools enforce strict storm safety precautions and make everyone leave the water if there is a storm approaching because lightning can strike even miles away from the storm center. I probably sound like a huge nerd…But oh well 🤷🏻‍♀️😂😂😂

I read the book long before the movie came out. But every time I see the movie, I end up crying. It's just so damn well done! One of the best Steven King adaptations!

His very last words, "We all walk our own Green Mile and sometimes the Green Mile seems so long." 🥺 Awesome movie.

There is zero shame in crying at this film. Zero. It’s beautiful, and damn near perfect.

Hannah: predicts entire movie correctly Ash: tries and fails miserably

Ash to Hannah: why you crying?! end of movie also Ash: uncontrollable sobbing. Love you guys keep it up!

Damn, Hannah thinking clear enough to actually call out that Percy was probably molested as a child after Wild Bill accosted him... Never even crossed my mind. That was truly a brilliant observation. This is absolutely the best reaction to this movie I have EVER seen.

I love how compassionate Hannah is even for some of the most evil minded characters in this film like Percy. She really said something like "he can be helped too." And really, that was the purpose of this film. It was look past the veil and into the hearts and minds of human beings. It really stretched the question to the viewers. How far will you go to show compassion for another individual? No matter what they've done.

The guy that played Percy was masterful. He made you hate to see him in any scene. Good acting/writing invokes emotions, Percy did that right from his first scene. Wild Bill did that too. The other actors were also amazing but they used multiple scenes for you to like them and get to know them.

For me, hannah deserves an oscar for her humanism. Thank you girl.

Hannah was on top of it and was totally instinctual with the story. Ash took this movie well, remaining stoic during some pretty heavy moments. But when the feels came, he felt it. Best Green Mile reaction I’ve seen.

Dude. I like you. But you HAVE to have this lady in EVERY reaction video you do! She’s a proper English lass and she ADDS to all the drama in these videos. She’s a priceless addition and that’s even acknowledging you’re pretty darn accomplished at this. Love this girl!

Watching the both of you feel so much emotion made me cry along with you. Thank you for keeping it so real and allowing us all to see your hearts.

Hannah, don't apologize for crying, I did the SAME thing as you, the first time, and EVERY time I have watched "TThe Green Mile, and when watching it with both of you. It shows that you have empathy, and that is the BEST quality to have, NEVER be ashamed to show that to anyone with your tears. If we had more empathetic people in this world, we wouldn't see all the war, hate and ugliness that we all experience in one way or another. I am 75 now, and I don't know how long I will live. I hope it is long enough to see things improve, and if not....I hope it will improve for you and your children and grandchildren, including my own. THANK YOU for reacting to the Green Mile, and thank you both for your humanity.

Watching reactors cry during a film that evokes every tear from your tear ducts, makes me cry once again. Darn it! A raw and touching reaction from you both 👌

The Green Mile is an actual masterpiece. SO glad this won the poll!

Respect to Hannah for recognizing this to be the best movie way before she saw the best part of it. Having seen it (decades ago) for the first time in a theater was definitely hell of an experience. Have seen it a few times since.

Man nobody will probably read this, but just in case someone does. This was truly a great reaction. Back when this movie came out, I didn't cry. I made myself so hard and was paying attention to my wife who was balling her eyes out. That kept me from crying that day. Fast forward however many years it's been since this movie came out. I had a massive heart attack in my doctors office. This was on 9/14/2021. I died that day for 8 minutes and some change at the age of 45. Life is so much different now. I'm retired now and my wife want let me do anything that causes me any kind of stress. My heart doctor made things even worse when he told EVERYONE that I should be dead and in the ground. You see I had 100% blockage in the so called Widowmaker artery and 90% blockage in one of the others. The doctor literally had just ran an EKG on me and yelled at the nurse to please hurry on getting the ambulance there. She looks at me and says to me, Mr. Jason, you are having a F^&$ing heart attack right now!!!!! She saved my life. When the other doctors where telling her to just stop and call the T,O,D. She kept on shocking me and she told it was all or nothing on the last shock. They turned that thing up all the away and hit me. I was released the next day from the hospital!!!!!! I had 2 stents, 6 broken ribs and a severe torn left pectoral muscle!!!!! My doctor that worked there at the Doctors office, he was fired the very next day!!! I had been telling him that something was wrong with my heart and he said OK OK, well let's get this blood pressure down first. Man I drove myself to the doctors office at 9:30am having a heart attack. It's a 40 minute drive from my house. When I git 8 miles from the office, I called my wife and told her just how much I loved her and my 3 kids. I could barely breathe when I was talking to her and I had to hang up. Needless to say, live life to your fullest, enjoy the company you keep. Like a song I heard a long time ago, live like you are dying. Peace love and cheerios. With love take care.

Sincerely I think this may have been your best movie reaction ever. Heartfelt, emotional, the tears flowed and with understandably good reason. Believe me when I tell you, your genuine reactions to this masterpiece of a film had me crying right there with you. Much love to Ash and Hannah. And to all your other viewers. Be kind to one another, tomorrow is promised to no one. RIP Michael Clarke Duncan 🙏🏼

Kudos to Hannah!!! She really had this movie figured out from the start. Ash: "He's Jesus". Why do you think John's initials are "JC"? It's hard to explain but this really is one of my favorite movies of all time. So emotional and great acting all around.

I firmly believe that Stephen King wrote Michael Clarke Duncan into existence. Hannah, you have such amazing intuition. It's almost as if you wrote the script. You are quickly becoming my favorite reactor. Thanks for the great reaction!

Michael Clark Duncan should’ve had this Oscar in the bag even though he didn’t win in my heart he won rest easy you lovely giant

Hannah is so empathetic and catches so well the personnality of a character I was already impressed when I watched LOTR and she guessed a lot a things

The actor who played Percy married a 16 year old girl when he was 51. I am not sure if Percy was worse or not.

Ive seen this film dozens of times, as well as with reactions like with you two. I literally bawl every time. This film is brutal and both of your raw reactions are appreciated because most of us are right there with you. And a real man owns his emotions. We dont owe any shit for how we feel.

When ash says 'he's putting the lemon in him!' 😂😂😂

Michael Clarke Duncan was such a great actor. The guy was huge but he brought something unique to every character he played. It was never about his size but his incredible performance. He did so well here. RIP MCD

Hannah, you're such a pure, kind soul. Ash is beyond lucky to have you. Ash, even if you try to hide it, you're a softy too. It's always a pleasure watching your reactions.

When you were wondering why you were getting so emotional over the mouse (I totally did too), I thought, "If you're teary-eyed now, just wait." This movie pulls on the heartstrings like no other. It takes place in the most macabre, depressing setting ever, but taps into something so primally sweet, innocent, and human within us. I was achingly raw with emotion the first time I saw this film, and don't think I've watched it all the way through since because it's just too much.

The novel is in my top 5 and this movie is in my top 10. Both are phenomenal. And in answer to your question about Del, we find out in the book that he did kill some innocent people, but it was by accident. He tried to burn down a house to kill someone who had wronged him (can't remember what the guy did against him), but there were other people in the house who also died. I strongly recommend the Stephen King novel.

My mother and I watched this together. We went into the movie blind with no expectations. By the end we were sobbing uncontrollably for a good half hour. One of the best stories and one of the best all around performances by the entire group of actors and actresses.

The way Percy spoiled mouseville to del was just pure evil. Then Del sobbing after Percy saying that just made me wanna knock out Percy.

You know Del’s execution was f*cked up when even the families of his victims look horrified

To be vulnerable to the world with your reactions is beautiful and shows absolute confidence in who you two are , ( my prospective obviously). Felt many great and gut wrenching emotions thru your reactions and am grateful i stumbled onto you two. I believe I watch these because I feel so many emotions and it feels good. So thanks for your genuineness when reacting, you two have become my new favorites and I assure you I have seen many , probably too many but I love it and it feeds the soul which is difficult to keep satisfied ❤️

In the book, Dale was convicted of raping and killing a young girl, then trying to cover up his crime by burning her body. The fire was near an apartment building that caught on fire and killed six more people, including two children. So I feel bad for him, but also feel his execution is not necessarily unjustified.

I think it's not about insinuating Del is innocent. I think it's more about showing you that even people who committed heinous crimes can be decent people otherwise. People deserving of respect. That shows far more humanity. Also worth noting: Ash, you were wanting them to stop the electrocution, but that would have just meant Del was sitting there cooking alive. Keeping it on will kill him faster.

Hannah’s reaction to this is RU-vid gold. I felt exactly the same when I watched it. She is clearly full of empathy, nothing to apologise for ever and she called it all the way through. Magic

The movie ending with the mouse is just perfect. I always cry when I watch this movie. Always. It's based on a Stephen King novel. That man is my favorite writer and this movie does his book justice, I'll even say it's better than the book. And I never say that. Loved your reaction.

JC at the beginning of the movie: "I'm scared of the dark" Ash: 🤨😆 JC at the end of the movie: "I'm scared of the dark" Ash: 🥺😭

The one line in this movie that always gets me, besides half of what John Coffey says, is the line from Tom Hanks: "On the day of my judgment, when I stand before God, and He asks me why did I kill one of his true miracles, what am I gonna say?"

This is a BEAUTIFUL and BRILLIANT movie and I’m so happy that you both appreciated it to the appropriate level. Hannah’s reaction was so sweet and very similar to my reaction the first time I saw it. Cried like a baby through so much of it. I love that Hannah says it’s her favorite. This movie deserves it.

There isn't a bad performance in this film. Michael Clarke Duncan gets a lot of the attention, but Michael Jeter as Del... and Doug Hutchison as Percy... Just phenomenal. An amazing cast.

The ‘janitor’ is actually an Orderly. He is also an inmate but just not a death row one. Orderlies are given small responsibilities like cleaning and such that they are trusted to take care of with minimal supervision. They are given more privileges such as freer movement around the prison especially as they do their duties and possibly better food and/or living quarters.

The actor Michael Clarke Duncan who played J.C found it so hard to film this movie. He could be found many days sat by the river crying his heart out. He said it was because he felt the pain of so many innocent men and women in jail or on death row who were set up to be guilty because of their skin colour or because they were close by to the scene. Losing Michael Clarke Duncan so young was such a loss to us all and many were only just discovering his work. May big Mike rest in peace. blessed be.

I LOVE this reaction (and I’ve watched a LOT)……believe it or not guys, this is a movie you can watch over and over and shed tears every time….it’s so good

Stephen King masterpiece! Amazing cast! Michael Clark Duncan should have won the Oscar for playing John Coffee! I cry every time I see it!!! ❤❤❤

Imagine seeing this at the cinema, Not a dry eye in the house. True art

'You can't watch this again.' I've seen this film literally hundreds of times, it is one of my favourites. For years I had to watch this at least once a week. It's one of the most emotionally effective films ever made, in my opinion. Hannah, I too often still cover my face with my hands when I cry - a throwback to my childhood when it was shameful to cry since my siblings and every kid in school would tease me, leaving me with the impression. I know now though that reacting emotionally shows how human we are, and being human is nothing to be ashamed of. I held back the tears watching E.T. for the first time (at the age of six ffs!).

It’s been a minute since I’ve seen this movie. When Percy stomps on the mouse…the energy from both of you at that moment 😂🫶🏼 It was like you were trying to scream but you were frozen in stunned silence. That came out of nowhere. Top tier reaction.

Shiiiiit, I can’t even think about this movie without getting chocked up. When you realize the constant suffering of Coffee, and the magnitude of what he showed Tom Hanks, it’s impossible not to be touched by it. If someone isn’t truly prepared for the raw feelings this story evokes, it could really be too much.

This is a flawless movie, hard to pick between this, Shawshank and Forrest Gump for my favourite. Love both your reactions. You are both so authentic and are my go to reaction channel. Michael Clarke Duncan was astonishing in this. How he didn't win Best Supporting Actor for this is beyond me. RIP.

This movie makes me cry every time but Hannah, she is so pure and sweet, made the reaction even better. It’s like she felt his pain while he felt the pain of the world.

When Percy doesn't wet the sponge, there's a moment on his face that makes it clear he knows what he's doing (as does the earlier scene, where it was explained to him).

The reactions of the two of you are what caused me to suffer through this fantastic movie again. You have good hearts. Well done Hannah and Ash. Well done.

Out of all the reactions I’ve watched for this movie …. Hannah is the first person that caught on when John Coffey said “ I took it back “ … and understood it was connected to when he said he was trying to take it back but it was to late .. most only caught that at the end when John Coffey showed the tragedy that happened.

Bless you both. Wonderful reactions. It is a heart breaking movie. Stephan King is an epic story teller ❤

This is the saddest and yet the most beautiful movie I ever watched. Imagine being responsible for killing someone so nice and so kind. Killing an angel. An innocent and beautiful being. I cry every single time I watch this movie or any reaction, every single one.

I know this was from last year, but I just watched your reaction to this movie. One of the best movie ever. Also the director of this film was the same as Shawshank redemption. Your reaction was genuine and heartfelt. Daring to cry on social media and show that kind of vulnerability has touched me. Thank you.

I love how Ash's opinion of John being scared of the dark from the beginning changed immensely in the end🖤What an incredible movie and I laughed and cried with yall the entire time

Many people out there think that Stephen King is just a horror writer. He's far more then that, he can write just about anything. This was one of his more astounding creations and this movie is a masterwork, it's so hard but so good.

I knew Delacroix's execution was going to be hard to watch for you both, especially for Hannah since she really gravitated towards the character. It hurt me when she couldn't even bare to watch. The movie as a whole is just too powerful. Love you both and your reactions.

What an incredible film. Hard not to get emotional with such a beautifully written story.

Ash and Hannah are the realest reactors on RU-vid. Such a great film with impeccable performances from all of the actors and a brilliant story by Stephen King.

@40:58 In the book, Eduard "Del" Delacroix was convicted of raping and killing a young girl. He then tried to cover up the murder by burning her body. When he burned her body, he set the fire near an apartment building, which also caught on fire, killing six more people, including two children.

I love how percy triggers people to really hate him in the film brilliant acting

Hannah has the purest heart. She is essential to your video's now. That was the best reaction I have ever seen!

I went into this reaction expecting Hannah to be destroyed. Was rather suprised by Ash also being equally destroyed. Highly endearing. This is my brother's favorite movie ever and my second favorite. Immeasurably amazing.

This makes most people ugly cry. Me included. I saw this in the theater and had to try not to just sob. Geezus this is such a classic.

The reason they continue to shock him even though the sponges dry is because they've already started and to turn it off would just prolong his suffering or at least that's what they thought at the time. It explains it really well in the book

44:35-To answer your question, they're not keeping it so Del can suffer. You physically can't turn that off, because if you do and the person is still alive, their suffering will not end! It's like cutting the head off of a chicken and stopping halfway through! You can't do it!

When Hannah reacted so much to the first execution I feared for her. A great reaction to an amazing movie.

Very few movies affect me enough to sob like a child. This one definitely tops the list. Still one of my all time favorite movies.

"I didn't notice that" "Why not?" "..... Ok,, percy" LMFAOOO

If it hasn't been said yet the reason why they kept rolling on Dale is that he was quite literally cooking alive. If they stopped he'd be in such agonizing pain and it definitely isn't a painless death that's why the sponge needs to be wet. Keeps the electricity from going throughout the body and basically burning you on the inside as you witnessed All and all one of my all time favorite movies. The end scene alone makes me cry all the time 😢

One thing this movie really gets is how especially here in the US we think of prisoners as being no longer human and being incapable of kindness or redemption, much less being innocent. And so many on death row particularly in the deep south are mentally challenged, brain damaged or severely schizophrenic. There is nothing preventing any outrage being committed against them or any incentive in the system to treat them with decency and kindness. But if you open your heart you might find that many aren't monsters at all and some are indeed lovely people who were wrongly convicted and could give the world so much

First, I am so upset I've only just now found this channel but happy that now I have something to binge for the next week. Secondly, I've watched this movie probably over 100 times over the last 22 years and I promise you, I cry every single time. Watching both of your reactions to it, made me cry only harder. 💔

Hey guys, I just watched this again and I cried just as much as I did the first time. Watching your reaction really helped me validate my emotions. Thank you.

This movie was directed by Frank Darabont, who just so happens to be the director of Shawshank Redemption. Both being screenplayed from Stephen King novels

When she tried to run from Dales execution scene I was like "Somebody grab her she's trying to escape*😂

“I’m tired, boss. Tired of being on the road, lonely as a sparrow in the rain. I’m tired of never having me a buddy to be with, to tell me where we’s going to, coming from, or why. Mostly, I’m tired of people being ugly ro each other. I’m tired of all the pain I feel and hear in the world, everyday. There’s too much of it. It’s like pieces of glass in my head, all the time”. - John Coffey. Such a beautiful quote that still represents this modern world. I’ll cheerish it forever. And John’s death is easily one of the saddest moments in cinema history. RIP Loved this reaction guys 🙌 One of the best films made 💛

I loved your reactions. The observation that this movie ruins you to make you a better person was spot on. Thank you for this. Thank you both.

Dale: “Au revoir, mon ami. Je t’aime, mon petit.” Meaning: “Goodbye, my friend. I love you, my little one.” 🐁❤

This is one of the best adaptations ever made. In my opinion it would be the best movie ever if Forest Gump didn't exist(i just love Forest Gump too much). The dialogue is amazing. That last conversation between John and Paul where paul asks what is he supposed to say to God when he meets him, just kills me every single time. John's speech about being alone, and feeling the hate and pain like glass in his head... Ufff, and the whole execution scene too... I can't. I knew you guys weren't gonna make it out of this one in one piece haha. hannah won this reaction tho🤣. Love from Argentina.🥰

You two are fucking hilarious even when tragedy is unfolding. “How come she’s not crying like us? She’s one cold hearted bitch” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I just rewatched this again because its one of the best films out there. Both of your reactions were honest and true like everyone's the first time we saw it!! Its probably the most I've seen you both cry with emotion 😢 because it draws you into it!!

All of all the reactors to this movie, you guys are honestly the sweetest. Seeing you hug each other symbolizes you care each other so dearly. Since I feel falling apart seeing those heartbreaking scenes, the two of you made my heart fixed. Thank you.

I have seen so many reactions to this movie, and this reaction by you two was the best by far. At first I was irritated because there wasn't much of the movie shown in your reaction, which was mainly because I wanted to watch it again, but watching you two piece together the plot to predict subsequent scenes quickly quelled my irritation. As a film student long ago, to hear you talk of the movie the way my fellow students and I dissected other ones on a graduate level made this reaction video the best I have seen by any of the RU-vid reactors on any video by far. Finding women who cried while watching this movie are a dime a dozen. Finding a man who was as emotional as I and who snotted as much as I did... Priceless.

I'm genuinely in love with you guys. You made me weep and laugh so much. Such a wholesome reaction.

I have watched reaction videos for years now and I have never grown to love a channel so much as I have y’all’s. Hannah, you are truly an amazing woman. 💚 Much love from Tennessee.

Vous êtes juste incroyable, un couple rempli d’humanité et drôle en plus. Vos réactions sont superbes 🎉

I love the way she realised "the I took it back" regarding Tom coffee well before me! The moment he healed Tom Hanks she knew! It honestly took me a while. Well done. Love the reactions btw. Great film but one I can barely watch (Dell's execution)

1- Love your reactions. 2- The "flies" - according to the book - represent all the evil on earth, that's why when they are seen, a strange sound is heard between screams and roars. Then Persy's mind, already disturbed, could not contain all these visions and sensations.

I adore your dynamic, both of you guys! Ash's banters and Hannah's so observant and empathetic, totally subscribed!!❤

You can watch it again. I've watched it several times. And reactions of it a couple of times lately, this being one of them. Great movie. The gentle and vulnerable nature of the giant. It's such awesome performances by all actors in this movie, just fantastic!
