Comments

TheLeftPecOfTheLord

Damn some great choices here, gonna throw it too the king of cool Clint Eastwood. Dirty Harry is a must watch classic. Great picks!

Dirge Girl

Widow's Bay (2026) [Comedy / Folk Horror]

Matt Logic

Do you have Ballerina (John Wick) on your horizon?

Matt Logic

Riddick 3 is really good (my favorite actually)

Patrick

No chance it will win but the Meg is one of my favourite ‘crap’ films

Bernd

Apocalypto is an experience.

Nemo

Oh yes. So excited for you to finally watch Apocalypto! One of my favorites.

Jeffrey Mitchell

I know Waterworld gets a bad rap, but it really is a fun movie.

Mike FromOz

I think this week I shall go for... Apocalypto. Even if it isn't close to historically accurate, it is a good action thriller film. I even have a miniature based on the bad guy from the film.

Jamie Maclean

Southpaw is by far Jake gyllenhalls best film, such an underrated film

Graham Bullman

I think we need the Extraction films on the action polls (unless you’ve already seen them of course). 🙂

Roger Davies

Dirty Harry & Apocalypto for me.

JakeyShakeyBakeyBoy

Apocalypto’s an experience to be had but Dirty Harry is one of Mr Eastwood’s best! Will be fun to see what comes out on top, dudes 😎

Fister Miyagi

Gotta be waterworld, like 30 people almost died filming it. Can't let that be in vain

Mike FromOz

Whenever I see that title, I just can't help thinking of Meg from Family Guy.

Spacedone

I'm going for Dirty Harry just because I want to see if Simone recognises a certain actor. But Apocalypto is great too.

Daniel Weaver

Apocalyto is good, but I hope you still watch Waterworld too :) Way of the Gun would make a great poll option!

RickyTicky

Dam. Apocalypto, Rush, and Southpaw are all really good.

Jeromy M

Especially the Ulysses cut.

howtocookazombie (Stan)

Waterworld Waterworld Waterworld Waterworld. 🤤️ Nobody is ever making reactions to the movie. The only reason why the movie got a bad reputation were the production costs, not because the movie was bad. I have watched it a thrillion times. And after Waterworld also "The Postman" from 1997. They belong together.

WeeFilly

Why is Dirty Harry not winning?! Together with French Connection kindled the whole modern "big city action thriller", which is such a fun genre. Please? :D

Mike W

Not a fan of Apocalypto, so I'll skip that one if it wins, but would be OK with any of the others

Yaron Assa

If you're in for unhinged action - humor, would highly recommend Hudson hawk as a hidden gem

Matrim

I don’t know why but it did very little for me. I fell asleep at the beginning of the third act and was woken up by a theatre employee about half an hour after it ended, and I’ve honestly never felt the need to revisit it.

Freddy Cougar

It's a great reaction movie too.

Matrim

Kind of a weak poll. Dirty Harry and Apocalypto are the only really solid choices. I’m going with Dirty Harry, mostly to see if Simone recognizes a plain, simple Star Trek actor.

JoeE

Would also recommend matewan, death wish, heavenly creatures

Philipp Roensch

I'll take one Waterworld for the road please.

AlexShark

Rush is wildly underrated

Maiki

I know Formula 1 and motor sport in general isn't for everyone, but seeing Rush doing that badly is just baffling to me. Rush isn't just a sports movie, it's an excellent drama based on a true story with fantastic performances. Hopefully it'll appear on a sports poll one day, perhaps it might do better then.

Jobbe Smit

Waterworld is an absolute cult classic

Matrim

It has a few good moments, but it’s a slog otherwise.

Kevin Ehle

I know Waterworld gets a bad rap, but....well it deserves it 😊

Martin

Apocalypto is top tier

Amar

My choice is Rush but there are some classics on here so I highly doubt it’s gonna win a poll like this one.

FranciscoGios

You guys already watched Waterworld.

dudewheresmycar

Not sure I would place Rush in the Action category. Its more true story sports biography.

Jaaahn

movies can belong to more than 1 category. if you google it, it literally says "Sports/Action".

Jonas

That's such a strange series. It's a bit like Cloverfield in that there are different genres within the same franchise. I find Pitch Black and Riddick to be fine movies, but by far my favorite is the space opera between them. I like sci-fi more than horror.

Mike S

Dirty Harry a Clint Eastwood classic!👍 I’ve seen Apocalypto(overrated) Not a fan of how the Mayan civilization is misrepresented as being only violent (human sacrifice) savages…being ignored as a highly intelligent people is troubling for me. Hieroglyphic writing system, mathematics architecture/art knowledge of astrology and the Mayan calendar… also chocolate 🍫 😋 rubber and other things 😂

Max

Rush is one of my favorite movies

Alexrandom

Apocalypto is a masterpiece of visual story telling. I can't wait! If you end up watching Waterworld please get your hands on the Ulysses cut. It's so much better compared to the theatrical cut which is clearly lacking.

Mike S

I’d rather watch Water World live at Universal Studios It’s phenomenal a definite must see!🍿

SnabbKassa

The Meg? What about Shark Attack 3 Megalodon?!

Clipped

Dirty Harry, if only because every film lover needs to experience that famous line(s) regarding feeling lucky.

Cc Decc

Crikey. I went with Dirty Harry, Mr. & Mrs. Smith, and Rush, but would watch any of them save perhaps Southpaw.

Be Human

A lot of people don't like drama flicks.

Daniel Lanctot

I’m surprised Waterworld is ahead (given that it wasn’t a very appreciated when it came out), but I do think it would make a great reaction for George & Simone!

Be Human

Anything but Apocalypto!

Ca$hWednesday

Rush is so good, but no way it's going to have a chance in this poll.

Ca$hWednesday

Rush is a fantastic movie as well.

Kuha Mo

ooooh apocalypto definitely

Richard Pearce

Rush seems to be an odd choice not really an action movie more sports movie

Jaaahn

sports, famously lacking in action. but also theyve said before they go by whatever imdb/google says since they wont know what genre a movie is if theyve never seen it, and google/imdb lists it as sports/action.

Jon Nelson

Prisoners and Zodiac

Jon Nelson

That would be Waterboy, and Watership down, but not world

Benny Hubbs

Apocalypto : Thanksgiving dinner 🍷🥖🦃🫂🥘🍠🥧 :: Other movies : 7/11 hot dog + cigarette 🌭🚬

Robinson vs. Parkinson's

This list is really missing FURIOSA: A MAD MAX SAGA. It's actually great, but it's just not Fury Road (which is the greatest pure action flick of all time). The studio just didn't market the damned thing. So that's my recommendation for this week.

jmundt33a

I sincerely hope not. That’s the second worst choice on here.

Cc Decc

Well I mean Southpaw really at that point too.

Dan EvilRobot

"WaterWorld" is classic guilty pleasure movie, it's actually really good. "Dirty Harry" is a true classic Clint Eastwood a must watch movie. After the first Dirty Harry definitely watch the sequel is better than the first movie, easily my favorite sequel.

jmundt33a

I know Mr. & Mrs. Smith is unlikely to win but it is an excellent and fun mix. And a tentpole of a couple genres. It’s also a skeleton key and ignition point for 15 years of American celebrity gossip atmosphere which makes it another kind of artifact.

Steven Cavanagh

Can I recommend the Movie Devil, it's about 5 people stuck in an Elevator with something Evil.

Scurvyville

F1 > Rush, but both are solid films.

The Film Effect

Yes, that or Dirty Harry. Every film fan should see Apocalypto at least once for the sweeping scope and technical filmmaking.

Scurvyville

“E-vil. Like the fruits of the De-vil….”

Benny Hubbs

It's more historical reverence, as opposed to reference. I love thinking about where we come from, the human condition, civilization itself, same instincts, different practices. Specific details dont really have much impact on any of that. Pedants like to angrily pedant. But no one said it was a doc. To be clear, you voted for it so you're obvs cool. Talkin about people not in this room.

maikeru

yes! I´m enjoying watching badd medicine reacting to it and hope our canadian cuties will watch it too one day

DwarfsRBest

So many good ones on this

Quixotic Hob

"Southpaw" is a psychological family drama, while "Rush" is a docudrama. Why films like these are also classified as action movies simply because one features racing scenes and the other boxing scenes is a mystery to me. If you applied that logic consistently, Disney's "Bambi", for example, would have to be classified as a psychological horror film! I really enjoyed both Southpaw and Rush. They're just not action movies. Now, what was I actually going to write...? Oh, right: My vote goes to "Waterworld". A film made with real sets, real stunts, and shot on the open sea. Digital effects were used primarily to enhance the practical work rather than replace it, and the story is strong enough to complement all that outstanding technical craftsmanship. That's the kind of filmmaking I love. And don't let the film's bad reputation put you off. It largely stems from negative press coverage during production (soaring costs, disagreements between Costner and Reynolds, etc.) rather than the actual quality of the film. Plus, the movie is perfect for a reaction video, and putting together an edited version for YouTube shouldn't be too much of a challenge either.

Mark

I mean, Dirty Harry is mandatory.

Friendly Neighborhood Xenos

I'm surprised Southpaw is doing so badly in dead last, but I'll enjoy seeing Waterworld for the first time since I was a little kid. It's one of my dad's favorite movies, we were a big Kevin Costner household lol used to watch it just about every summer.

Benny Hubbs

For reference, the Reddit Dunning-Kruger style critique is "heavily criticized the film for blending different Mesoamerican cultures (such as mixing Maya and Aztec practices) and compressing timelines." In other news, Back To The Future Part II grossly misled the public about life in the year 2015. But, again, not a doc. I mean, it had a Doc... but, you know what I mean!

Steve

Rush is one of my favorites but this list is stacked. So most would be fun.

jjkcharlie

Whoever is voting Waterworld has to be joking, right? Rush (1991) with Jason Patric and Jennifer Jason Liegh is a good undercover movie.

ChiefKC

Waterworld!

Robert Finlay

Please cinebinge "make my day" by reacting to Dirty Harry.

Xev

Wrong. That movie is amazing.

Wormtongue

Waterworld… talk about a mess

Ian Tellam

Rush is an amazing film but I feel it shouldn’t be in this list as an ‘action’ movie. It’s like putting Ford vs Ferrari as an action movie. (And it’s better than Ford vs Ferrari btw).

s0rd3z

I mean I personally don't like Apocalypto but I still voted for it. It is an experience and the technical film making is up there for sure. They should see it at least once and I think even if I don't like it that much it's still going to be a fun reaction.

Ian Tellam

Agreed. I was hoping they’d do it after they watched Ford vs Ferrari. Weird to see it crammed into this list.

s0rd3z

Same for Waterworld too actually. I honestly do not like Costner, that's just me, and that movie is not great imo. But I still want to see there reactions to it.

Ken

It is rare that my top three picks on here are the best performing and worst performing options. More love to Southpaw and Rush.

Ian Tellam

I understand the IMDB thing, but I think it’s also worth pointing out to them it’s a poor fit if that’s the case. It’s really not the same sort of film as Apocalypto or The Meg.

s0rd3z

I just watched the first two episodes last week, as I keep seeing it being mentioned. I like it so far, took me a bit to get the vibe. First thing it reminded me of was Carpenters "The Fog".

s0rd3z

I don't like it but I still want to see them react to it. That movie is wild to me.

Ian Tellam

I think because it’s known as such a huge flop people think it’s going to be terrible - but it’s really just incredibly average. It’s just the insane way it went over budget that makes it noteworthy.

Ian Tellam

Yeah, Rush is fantastic but feels out of place on this list.

Rob

I really hope they do Appcalypto, I think they'll really like it

jmundt33a

In no aspect is that remotely true. Apocalypto is well shot and lit, but it’s more rollercoaster than story. And the twist at the end does not retroactively improve it. And Mel Gibson can make excellent films. This just isn’t an example of that.

G0d_Ginrai

Dirty Harry because it’s a classic and The Meg because it’s a Jason Statham movie, which are always a good time

jmundt33a

If I’m going to support a Rocky kn…reimagination, I’ll take Twilight Zone Robot Rocky aka Real Steel. I tend to file Southpaw into the drama side of films like Play it to the Bone. Fuqua is often great, but this was a weird side road. He supposedly originally wanted Eminem for the lead.

Jeromy M

Ulysses cut for waterworld

REDR58

More Jennifer Jason Leigh in general.

DR GONZO

if Waterworld wins PLEASE watch the Ulysses Cut!!

JayF

Waterworld over Apocalypto and Dirty Harry? Really?

KEVIN

Please add Ronin (1998) for next time. Amazing action movie starring Robert De Niro.

Alex

How is rush so low 😱 great movie

TurnerK

Holy shiittt this is stacked. Apocalypto and Waterworld are two of my favs. Rush is also toptier. Yall in for it! I rec Godzilla Minus zero when it drops for digital, its jaw dropping

Doug S.

We need us some Harry Callahan on the channel! Plus one of the creepiest antagonists in a movie.

JarHead0351

Too many good choices thistime...Apocalypto is a must see at least once and Dirty Harry is a classic must see and I do like Mr. & Mrs. Smith is a fun action flick too....

JarHead0351

But only a once watch and done movie where Dirty Harry makes my Day ... lol

Jeff K.

@maikeru I'm doing the watch-through with Badd Medicine now as well; I had watched the first five or six episodes a couple months ago but got too busy to finish, so it's been fun revisiting it. Such a fantastic show. Incredibly funny, genuinely creepy, and outstanding performances all the way around. Very deserving of all of its Emmy love.

Jeff K.

I voted for Dirty Harry primarily because it'll be interesting for them to watch that and then learn that Harry Callahan was inspired by the real-life guy Mark Ruffalo plays in Zodiac (hence why he's shown walking out of seeing Dirty Harry at the theater, since it was based in part on him and his investigation).

Peter K

I'll say this, of all the movies on the list, the only one considered a classic is Dirty Harry. Movies like Lethal Weapon and Die Hard, and the whole modern action genre began with DH.

WeeFilly

The subsequent Dirty Harry films certainly water it down (although none of them is properly "bad"), but the first one is great. The score is amazing, and there is plenty of breathing room for the city to become one of the main protagonists, without losing pace!

John

Berry Gordy’s The Last Dragon? I would certainly support that.

Jeff Banks

"Now, while we wait I was thinking we expose them to some good old-fashioned American cinema: Apocalypto. They can learn about how their ancestors used to be savages, until Mel Gibson and the Catholics came in and saved everybody!" -Mac, "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia"

Jose Robles

I agree with other comments Rush is not an action movie is more biographical like Ford vs Ferrari , and also pretty good

Kelly Pickard

For future consideration… Movies: - Stardust (2007) - Logan Lucky (2017) - Arthur (1981) - Death Becomes Her (1992) - Waking Ned Devine (1998) - Moonstruck (1987) - Dirty Rotten Scoundrels (1988) - The Money Pit (1986) - Margin Call (2011) - Legend, Director's Cut (1985) - The Adventures of Priscilla: Queen of the Desert (1994) - Flash Gordon (1980) - Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990) - Masters of the Universe (2026) - City Slickers (1991) - The Craft (1996) - A Man for All Seasons (1966) - Bridesmaids (2011) TV: - Batman: The Animated Series - Disney's Gargoyles - Barry (Max) - Interview with the Vampire (AMC TV series) - Invincible - Midnight Mass

Green Nolan

Since we're finishing up sopranos, how about "true romance" on a poll? Quentin Tarantino, James Gandolfini, Tony Scott, Hans Zimmer?

Cc Decc

This is a good list, but just keeping these fresh. Any one of them would have grabbed a lot of votes: Last of the Mohicans (1992) -- one of the best films the channel has yet to watch Premium Rush (2012) -- some Run Lola Run in its DNA, with bikes Days of Thunder (1990) -- Top Gun in cars + getting the Top Gun sequel treatment soon Rambo (2008) -- intended as the series wrap, reboot coming soon Point of No Return (1993) -- American remake of La Femme Nikita Extraction (2020) -- Thor does great action with some heart. Avoid the dumb sequel though.

Tall Paul

I'm worried that this poll is not going to make my day

HeyHeyJK

I mean, Waterworld for a bad movie reaction, but Apocalypto for unique look into an ancient culture and amazing filmmaking .

Robert Finlay

And I think to myself, Water wonderful World.

Nebula

Please Dirty Harry, it’s such a good movie. I’ve seen it pop up in polls a few times

CouchCheese

I voted for Waterworld out of sheer facetious degeneracy. I was shocked looking at the poll results afterward that it has the most votes. Are we all just troubled, or is did it actually become a beloved film at some point?

TR McNeer

waterworld is probably kc`s

TR McNeer

waterworld is probably kevin costner`s worst movie -- just sayin`.

Gary Poussard

From the votes it looks like people want to see Simone and George watch a really bad movie.

Dan Holmes

this world is a tragedy if waterworld wins over Apocalypto

Jaaahn

from votes it looks like people have different preferences and opinions on things and just because you dont like something doenst mean no one else should.

Kevin Ehle

No one says someone else can't like their movies. Rotten Tomatoes shows a 44% approval. I agree with the 56%.

BellaBlue

Requests for your consideration: Theme: Unhinged - Saint Maud (2019) 
- Lamb (2021) - Saltburn (2023) 
- Mother! (2017) - Martyrs (2008) - The Last House On The Left (2009) 
- Malignant (2021) 
- Bring Her Back (2025) - The Innocents (2021) - Infinity Pool (2023) - Titane (2021) - Hatching (2022)

Happy Hanukkah

"Sheer facetious degeneracy" for the win!

Happy Hanukkah

My obligatory comment: of the two infamous Kevin Costner epic flops, I much prefer and actually like The Postman (1997).

Ross Grimes

Can you guys also watch the Mr. & Mrs. Smith TV show. its nice and short and one of my favorite modern TV shows

Matthew Maxon

Waterworld. Also known as "Fishtar" a take in Ishtar. Beautiful movie that everyone hated.

Rokkor X

I've always been fond of it since seeing parts of it as a kid. I just love the concept, a world flooded with no land. And I love Dennis Hopper's villains.

Tom Hess

Looks like Apocalypto and Waterworld are winning, which is good news (IMO). @Simone and George: some people will recommend you watch the "Ulysses Cut" version of Waterworld, but I don't. It's an extended cut that plugs a bunch of plot holes, but it has unfinished VFX shots and doesn't look/sound very good in some places. It's not a good choice for first-time viewers. Note: you should try putting Rush (2013) on a sports poll. It will probably do better then.

Hermits Window

Great picks! I went with Apocalypto.

REDR58

Point of No Return, saw it twice in the theaters back in the day. Bridget Fonda really elevates the movie with her performance.

Fattydoe

I voted apocalypto. But again. South paw doesnt get respect it deserves. Underrated film.

BangDroid

Waterworld is compulsory cinematic viewing. Even though it's not good, you need to see it, you need the reference point.

warcrimes

Sweet jesus Waterworld is beating Apocalypto.

Matt Dy

Apocalypto is insane

maikeru

mel gibson is a great director

maikeru

it's a pretty good film for reacts regardless if one thinks it's a good film or not

maikeru

George already watched Martyrs and talked about it on "cinecringe" (which I didn't watch/listen), that's why I assume that he thinks Martyrs is a bad-ish film (why else would he think it's cringe?) although I personally think it's more than a solid horror film, not perfect by any means. (it's a canadian film and george should support it lol 😜)

maikeru

ps: I stopped suggesting it a while ago, after he once wrote that he watched it, but I still think he should rewatch it with Simone, it's a well made flick despite its flaws here and there

TheFool

Waterworld is awesome!

Joseph Schiller

I actually watch Waterworld a lot Dennis Hopper was so great

fforw

Really!? Waterworld? 782 votes for Waterworld!? That might be the largest accumulation of people wanting to see that movie ever.

Mark Alex Leach

The Postman was surprisingly really good. I really hope it gets on the list under sci-fi some time.

Cc Decc

Didn't vote for it, but I can see its appeal as a reaction video. There's always that tension, or several tensions to people voting. Voting for best movie? Most entertaining movie? Important movie any cinephile should know? Movie that will get the best reaction? Childhood nostalgia? Anyway, I didn't vote for it, but I can see it be entertaining, and I want to see George's head explode when he does the math on how the entire globe got covered by about 28,000 feet of previously non-existent water.

Adam

Waterworld was one of the biggest flops in movie history for good reason. Are people voting for it ironically?

jmundt33a

Wish Lucky Number Slevin had made this list.

warcrimes

hard disagree but live your life

Roger Davies

It seems Waterworld is going to win. You guys are cruel to these hard working reactors.

Jaaahn

🙄 yeah it cant possibly because other people like different things than you.

Jaaahn

box office doenst automatically determine movie quality, plenty of stupid movies make stupid money why do you think theres so many transformers. also, movies that make for entertaining reactions and movies that are great arent always the same thing.

Jaaahn

good movie and good reaction movies arent always the same thing.

Tom B

It would be great to point out how inaccurate Apocalypto is

FryLord

Not Big Shark? I heard the director was a genius😶

Adam

As I said before, this one flopped for good reason.

Tom B

Why to see how inaccurately it portrays the Mayan society?

Ashton Lewis

Just because it's an entertaining, well made film. It's a Mel Gibson film, so inaccurate retelling of history is a given unfortunately, but you can bet it's going to be a thrill ride either way.

charles markovetz

i wish i could afford a higher tier membership so i could request joe vs the volcano it is a really great movie not the best movie but really great.

Frank

No need for major spoilers. The movie doesn't go in depth about every aspect of Mayan civilization. It's a movie. I don't believe it ever says based on any specific events or history. I don't want to go into it because it looks like it will be watched soon.

Peter

Apocalypto is the better film but I've seen it lol

Frank

Really? That's pretty wild. I also remember the scene where Ruffalo's character says to Jake Gyllenhaal's "easy dirty harry". I've actually never seen Dirty Harry despite being aware of how well known and universally praised it seens to be. Look forward to watching it when they do.

Frank

Excuse me, what? Wtf were they doing on the set to cause that

Jeff K.

Yep. And Steve McQueen’s character in the movie Bullitt is also heavily inspired by the same real detective.

Frank

It says Rush (2013). I've heard of that one it's the racing F1 movie I believe. The 1991 version I didn't know about. Glad I do now because it does sound intriguing. Thanks for the recommendation. Even if it isn't meant as one, lol

Fister Miyagi

Filming at sea, storms and stunts people damn near drowning or being swept away. Filming was a nightmare

Frank

@cc I usually vote for my personal favorite movie or movies that I think everyone should at least watch once. I'll also vote for movies that I've never seen before because I enjoy watching with S and G for the first time. I prefer to see high praise for movies I haven't seen before I vote. Ok, enough comments for me on here for a little bit. I feel bad that George has to get an email, and I assume read through most comments to make sure everyone is civil.
