The scenes certainly felt shocking to me haha, but i think that's just because there's no way i'd have ever anticipated what Oliver was gonna bloody do next! Really appreciate the kind comments there as well, glad to have you here! 😊

It’s not that they’re graphic… they aren’t. It’s just that they’re very human and realistic and they build tension with silence. Those key scenes usually cut all other sounds out and just sit there in the awkwardness so you’re left to feel as if you were there which makes it more impactful than any normal graphic of violent scene.

They aren’t extreme in theory but the sound as he slurps the liquids on the tub drain makes my flesh crawl

i cringed at the egg scene... the secondhand embarrassment. everything else is tame.

I agree. However, it was the lunch and the Happy Birthday ??? that got me. The supposed gross scenes didn't bother me. I have been described as a kinky bitch, so YMMV.

Oh man, it's a heavy film isn't it. I definitely felt like i processed more after letting it sit in my head for a day. Then after the editing of this video i feel i know the movie pretty well now 😂

Yes it was. Beautiful film.

Same, watching it for the second time is so much better.

@@JackWillReact I thought it was odd too that Felix accepted the bottle from Oliver after he was done with him, but Felix was intoxicated and perhaps too eager to drink more while dealing with his disappointment with Oliver. There was real hurt in his eyes. I think a bit more to it than just his mother's voyeurism toward the unfortunate, though not returning the kind of feelings Oliver had.

Hahaha, little did we know 😅

Same. Lol.

it's grooss

you are not alone. THere are probably at least a million people engaging in that vice LOL

Yes. Same with _The Menu._ And it's not that I loved either of these movies.

It's so damned delicious. 🫦

Haha, i saw The Shining recently and it must have been sitting fresh in my head subconsciously 😅 felt like there were some subtle parallels between the two

⁠@@JackWillReactyou’re absolutely right, I just saw an interview with her and she was asked to rate her top films and she got to number one and it’s The Shining. And that maze, much like in the shining, doesn’t actually exist. You were spot on.

Going into this movie completely blind I made the assumption of Oliver being a serial killer or going on a killing spree in the 2nd half of the movie before they made it to Saltburn. It was around the stone throwing scene. Although not entirely true, it was pretty close. Dude is a lunatic 😂

Oh for me pausing to discuss is an absolute must! I can't be missing important details whilst talking and then getting all confused. It adds so much time on to the raw footage but totally worth it to not miss any of the story in my opinion! Really glad to hear you enjoyed the video! 😊

AGREED ON ALL FRONTS

What was the reaction like? I do understand people being a bit grossed out, and if I had gone in blind I might have been, but when I saw it in theaters I was expecting a lot worse, especially the bathtub scene Even with going in blind, anyone traumatized by this movie needs to watch more movies and I stand behind that lol

Man the LA premiere must have been a blast! I bet those bathtub cups look so cool haha, how did it all go? Thanks for the sub and checking out the videos mate, really means a lot!

@@JackWillReact super great crowd!! everyone reacted appropriately to all the wild scenes which was fun :)

Haha, mate I swear it's a word though... Right!? 😂

I knew Oliver wasn’t exactly normal pretty early on when he was watching Felix hook up with that girl

@@SaidByTyyou must be a genius. Of course, that's the first real clue that we get. What I said was the movie is designed to misdirect us so that we gloss over moments like that until they hit us real hard with that bathtub scene. Some people aren't susceptible to it and still pick things up early - but a lot of people don't.

That's really kind of you, thank you for that! Currently trying to find that balance between work and making content for the channel 😅 but i'm working on the next video, hoping to get it out soon

He didn’t he was lying then. He’s a pathological liar. He has no problem lying about little things.

Appreciate that mate, and thanks for the sub!! Haha, i'm the same. I'll be happily going about my day and then BAM the image of Oliver in the bath tub pops up in my head 😂😭

It also delves into a part of history that hasn't really necessarily been talked about in the detail that the show goes into regarding the US political history and lgbtq history... Some people, bare minimum, have HEARD of the lavender scare but the show went into significant detail about EXACTLY what was going on during it. It certainly was a very educational, but fictional, story that was also quite steamy at times lol.

Thanks for the kind words! Glad you enjoyed! 😊 I never realised the ending of the film being a reverse from the beginning with the tour from Felix, well done on spotting that!

Ahh that's awesome!! Welcome in from across the pond! 😊

Why'd he have to slurp though!! 😭😫

@@JackWillReactthe girls that get it get it

@@JackWillReactimagine Barry's mental reaction upon first script reading... and that was only the first of the 3 freakazoid scenes. Dancing naked isnt freaky in the least.. we've all done it - just not in a mega mansion :P

11 times! Man, that's dedication from Barry there. He absolutely smashed it in this role i think. Sending a willkommen to Germany! 😊

Thanks so much! Glad to have you here! 😊

That's awesome mate, thanks so much for the sub! Glad to have you here!!

That's really cool that you're asking about a patreon! We've only been doing this for a couple of months, maybe it feels a little premature to start one now? Either way, super encouraging that you're even asking about one! That's definitely something we'd like to work to for sure 😊

@@JackWillReact oh wow i just noticed your channel is pretty new! i asked because i love rewatching my favorite movies, so if theres the option i always prefer full reactions. Good luck for your channel!

Thanks so much, really glad to hear you enjoyed it! 😊

Mate i loved The Menu, that would have been a great movie to react to for the channel! I'm really enjoying this genre lately, trying to find more movies like this haha

We watched this on prime as well! I wonder if it's a region thing then? What scenes were missing from yours?

@@JackWillReact As I understand it, nudity/ sex is more likely to get censored in US and violence more likely in Europe, maybe it was something like that.

Or The Menu 😐

I just checked it out on IMDB, this movie looks like a great one, awesome suggestion! Will definitely catch it when it comes out on whichever streaming platform!

@@JackWillReact hope you looked up *Poor things! I just noticed my typo 🙃

@@michaelallensantos I knew exactly what you meant mate 😊Emma Stone and Mark Ruffalo!

Haha if this is our USP then i'll take it! 😅 but the question, who's who?

@@JackWillReact Is that a serious question..? Dan is Hugh. Lol. Daniel Radcliffe has a beard lately!

That's what I assumed

dont be a jackass.. One does not "place" oneself in Oxford, considering the background he came from. It was clearly stated he was there on a scholarship.. One does NOT manipulate those without major power/influence, which his family didnt have. He could easily have met some other magnetic personality and gone down a path with them. The big issue is how easily the Cattons made it to violently hate them.. I mean Felix was the only one that he apparently had any feelings for.. the other 3 were all clearly objectionable and irredeemable, and therefore to be eliminated.

@ZakhadWOW do we even know he was on a scholarship? Remember the scene in the pub where he had money in his wallet and played poor? I think he went to Oxford with every intention of doing better, raising himself above his middle-class parents. I don't think he went with just Felix in mind but was planning on climbing high through connections one way or another. That, he had looked at tabloids and such (SInce this is pre social media) as to how the other half lived and envied it. Began to covet the lifestyle as well as the specificity of Felix. When I went to college in the 80s, I had people who approached me saying they knew of me or my family because of bits in the news (we are not like Felix's family). I saw it happen with classmates as well. I went up to people and did the whole - here's the way we have a tangential connection ( our parents knew each other, I was in the same division sports but a few years behind, had been to their house, restaurant, gallery etc, saw their show or speech or whatever) the professor event brings up his tangential relationship to the famy when he first meets the cousin. I think Oliver made himself into an interesting modern Dickensian character instead of a middle class social climber to have a better story, whether Felix fell for it or some other way to rise up to where he wanted to be. Anywhere but becoming his suburban dad. The story of the guy who fooled Oprah with his book about his depraved drug addiction comes to mind. He fooled her and the publishers and everyone into having this wonderful story they could all dine on and treat like a pet. To feel better about rescuing. Only to be a medium talented writer from a solid middle-class home who had never been homeless or been in rehab. Oprah had her whole book club support him. He got book deals, movie deals (that fell through), and became a best-selling author. People reinvent themselves as long cons all the time. Even if the target is not specific. I think Oliver Quick ( very Dickens/Robert Louis Stevenson name) fell in love with the Cattons' life first and Felix second. I think he'd gone to museums and such growing up and longed for a life that he read about.

Thanks mate! Glad to have you here, a few friends have described our jokes as "insufferable" so i'm glad to hear that you like them! 😂

Perhaps? 🤔😳

Which is why it made sense that a hymn plays during the funeral but continues during his time alone at the grave. It's a traditional folk melody but used for religious purposes as well

The period blood is the absolute worst…

I'm 64,and grew up in the seventies,nothing shocks me,I found it quite tame but a brilliant film.

I just checked it out on IMDB and it looks great, 100% going on the list!

Really? He went into his room and assaulted him, and you're making it about being gay? This is why people are homophobes

it's about sexual assault

Did he say dont, no or stop? I dont advocate this behavior but in this instance as a plot and point for the movie it was a fantasy realized. It was a bit of a hate fuck/sexual tension wanted on both parts.

Yeah, I cringed when I heard that.

I don’t think he assaulted him. Emerald Fennell confirmed it consensual. So it’s definitely gay and gorgeous! 🛏️
