For people who are younger, you just don't understand how crazy it is that Keanu Reaves is still a big movie star today. This is and Bill and Ted's were the overwhelming perception of him. He was young and played kind of dumbish guys. 36 years later he's probably even more popular and loved than he's ever been. Keanu will never die! FYI, Joaquin Phoenix was credited as *Leaf Phoenix because his brother was River and his sister is Rain, so he wanted to have a nature based name.

Today, this wouldn't be made as a movie, it would be a TV series. And of course it was. Parenthood (2010) with Lauren Graham ran for 6 seasons on NBC. Ironically, Steve Martin didn't become an actual father until 2012.

Great Classic !! My wife is watching the series and loved it ... I would recommend "Backdraft" with Kurt Russell and Robert de Niro ... Another Great Ron Howard Classic

He sounds like he is one of the coolest people in show business too.

I was tempted to warn them about the vomit scene, but decided to adhere to the most rigid form of the no spoilers rule. Sorry you guys had to watch that.

I win!! "They don't make movies like this anymore." Great quote! Great reaction! Love this movie!

"LEAF" Phoenix. A tiny typo there! :)

That was such an enjoyable watch and reaction, just about my favourite reaction on the channel, the entire year. The look of sheer panic on Daniels face, just for a second, when Sam said,in the wrap up ''I don't think i have ever said the on the channel before'' His face was like ''jesus what the hell is she about to say“😂 We got a reaction of ''Three Men and a Baby (1987)'' just before baby Schmitt was born, hopefully we can pencil in a reaction of the sequel ''Three Men and a Little Lady (1990)'' for 2026

Great choice! Thanks for getting this on the channel.

Love this underrated movie. I'm so glad you enjoyed it. They packed a lot into it. It's relatable for many parents, and I'm glad you got to see it at this point in your family's life. Humorous, yet thought-provoking. Great script, great cast. And with all the issues and challenges presented, the writers and director didn't attempt to solve them all perfectly with a neat little bow on top. As with most things... you just keep plugging away and do your best. "Let everything happen to you, Beauty and Terror. Just keep going. No feeling is final." Rainer Maria Rilke

If you're looking for another "they don't make them like this anymore" movie, I recommend "Return to Me". It stars David Duchovny and Minnie Driver, plus the great Bonnie Hunt wrote, directed, and costars.

I always say Apollo 13 is probably Ron Howard's best movie, but this is my favorite Ron Howard movie, btw he still has some great ones you haven't seen yet, like "Gung Ho", that movie is so underrated, or "Far and Away", bad Irish accents from Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman, but still a fun movie. Also, did you notice how good the child actor who played Gary was? Leaf Phoenix, wonder what ever happened to him... And it was so fun watching this reaction with you guys, relatively new parents, I am not a parent, just the weird fun bachelor Uncle Buck, but I've always loved this movie and it was a lot of fun to hear your perspective.

There were two directors who thrived in the 80s/90s who made absolute classics. Rob Reiner and Ron Howard. While Rob Reiner was releasing When Harry Met Sally... this was Ron Howard's movie that year. Neither of these directors get the credit they deserve. So often when you come across one of these gems, always look at who the director was, and then go make sure you've seen everything they made in those two decades and you'll get a lot of these feels.

Saw this movie on HBO on its opening showing and I have loved it ever since, I was 9 and I didn't "get" a lot of it but I always knew that I would one day. Now that I am a father of four kids with all the ups and downs as the Grandma was saying, I "get" it. On a lighter note thanks to Sam for pointing out the "before they cum" line I never noticed it....lol
