OMG!?! Two years of steady requests, and LAH premieres while I’m at Grandma’s house in a cell phone signal black hole? ARRRRGGGGHHHHH. I can’t wait to watch this on Sunday when I get home.

Seeing this in the cinema as an 11 year old kid was absolutely magical 🤗

Whiskers the Cat was voiced by Danny Devito. Death was Ian McKellen (Gandalf from Lord of the Rings) The screaming police chief was played by Frank McRae. Off the top of my head he was the teacher in the beginning of he original Red Dawn movie, the quiet boxer guy in Batteries Not Included, Rocky 2, 48hrs, and before his movie carreer he played for the Chicago Bears (Da Bears).

I saw this in the theater when it came out, i was 13. It's a great movie. It definitely had the misfortune of coming out at the same time as Jurassic Park. It was ahead of its time, and most people didn't understand it. I think people went in thinking it was the usual serious action movie. It was directed by John McTiernan (Die Hard). Great reaction as always.

Still have my VHS copy of this movie. Watched it endlessly growing up. So darn good!

The cat who you thought was Joe Peschi is Danny Devito. Great choice in movies man! This one bombed at the box office but totally underrated. Plus the soundtrack! Megadeth Angry again.

"You think you are funny, don't you?" "I know I am. I'm the famous comedian Arnold Braunschweiger." "Schwarzenegger!" "Gesundheit." Fun Fact: Theatrical movie debut of Angie Everhart. Voice Play Fact: Whiskers, the animated cat, is voiced by Danny DeVito, who starred alongside Arnold Schwarzenegger in the movies Twins (1988) and Junior (1993). Music Enthusiast Fact: Big Gun (1993) by AC/DC was specifically written for this movie after Arnold Schwarzenegger personally approached the group and asked them to write a song for it. Casting Notes Fact: Art Carney's final movie appearance. "I'm outta here" were favorite second cousin Frank's last words. Prophetically, those were in fact the last words Art Carney spoke on-screen, as he retired. Charles Dance said in interviews that, after being told that he had won a part turned down by Alan Rickman because of the salary, he wore a t-shirt on set which read: "I'm cheaper than Alan Rickman!" Cameos Cameos Fact: When Danny Madigan (Austin O'Brien) and Jack Slater (Arnold Schwarzenegger) arrive at LAPD headquarters, Sharon Stone and Robert Patrick appear outside the front door as Catherine Tramell (from Basic Instinct (1992)) and the T-1000 (from Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991)), respectively. Sir Ian McKellen played Death, a character out of Ingmar Bergman's The Seventh Seal (1957). In that movie, Death was played by Bengt Ekerot. Tina Turner is the mayor. Jim Belushi, Chevy Chase, Chris Connelly, Karen Duffy, Leeza Gibbons, M.C. Hammer, Little Richard, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Melvin Van Peebles, Damon Wayans, and Maria Shriver are just the few people that I could identify that appear as themselves.

"bitch, I love you..." I lost my shit! 🤣🤣🤣

I love that Charles Dance plays wonderful villains but also doesn't take himself too seriously (see Ali G Indahouse😅).

To answer your question, Benedict uses a custom .357 Dan Wesson Revolver. It features a muzzle brake compensator on the end.

Arnold has his "I'll be back" catch-phrase. Yours is "Shut the f*** up." Every time you drop it, it's right on point. Love the channel.

This was so much fun! JL kills us every damn time! "The other ticket" part had us rolling! Robert was a ticket taker for many years and still doesn't know what that damn podium is technically called.

I love this movie. It flopped hard and was not well-received when it first came out. It was poorly marketed, advertised as an action movie rather than a parody of action movies. Once you accept that it is parodying action movies in the same way that The Naked Gun parodies police shows, then it is great fun. I also love its subtle ode to the importance of escapist action movies, the kind of movies I have always loved from the time I was a kid like Danny. Notice how Danny's real life sucks. He has no power whatsoever to change his shitty lot in life. That's why movies are so important to him. Movies are an escape. And through a character like Slater, who does have power over oppositional forces in his world, Danny is able to experience through the movies what he can't experience in real life. Having Slater as a kind of father figure, a father figure that he lacks in real life, gives Danny the confidence to face the world and to be heroic even in his limited circumstances. Movies (and stories more generally) are powerful. Anyone who has a low opinion of the kind of escapist action movies that Arnold stars in should think about the Danny Mattigans of the world who need what these movies provide.

"I just murdered a man and i want to confess!" "Hey shut up down there!"

an amazing movie that I see way too many people give underhanded praise to. it’s rarely ever “it’s a great action comedy with great writing” and mostly “I knows it’s a dumb satire but I like it” or some variation of that.

Charles Dance is unforgettable as a villain. I watched this when it came out when I was a kid. I loved his lines. I constantly watched this movie.

2 packs of Red Velvet Oreos are on their way to your PO Box! Estimated date of delivery is Nov.29 - Dec 1...ENJOY!!! 😊

I love this movie so much. It bombed at the theater in 1993 but I don't think audiences got the joke. Loved seeing that Arnorld didn't take himself seriously and wasn't afraid to poke fun at the action movie genre. Great film.

I f***in love this movie, it’s so cheesy but fun. I guess cause it’s a movie inside of a movie. Meredith who plays jacks daughter inside the movie is actually the same actress who plays Sonya in the first Mortal Kombat film from the 90’s.

Take a shot every time J says STFU ..... I woke up two days later :)

This movie had a killer sound track

One of the funniest fantasy action comedy movies ever made! They poked fun at this movie in an episode of THE SIMPSONS called The Boy Who Knew Too Much. Bart tells McBain, Rainier Wolfcastle, that his last movie sucked. Chief Wiggum points out, "Yeah, what was the point of it? Magic Ticket, my ass McBain." Lol!!!

So many cameos, easter eggs and nods. Love this movie.

I got a large framed poster of this movie on my wall. Saw it at the cinema when I was 13. The kid in this movie SPEAKS to me. I WAS that kid pretty much so I clearly identified with this movie a lot. I'd love a sequel

This is by far the best multiverse movie! And that guy with the axe is still one of the freakiest mother scratchers ive ever seen!

This film just turns us all into kids while watching it. Reality suspended for some great action, humour, fun and crazy one liners "No sequel for you!" 👏

"THE THING!! THE THING!!" 😂🙃 The cat is Danny Devito.

This was the movie that explained Plot Armor to me as a kid.

This film is worth watching just for the Arnold Hamlet sequence. I'd spend anything to buy a ticket to a full length version of that film hahaha

The concept of a fictional hero/cop being transported into the real world has a lot of comedic potential. It's a shame they only explored that for they last bit of the movie.

CERTAINLY NO OSCARS HERE BUT WHAT A FUN RIDE. ARNOLD VS TYWIN LANNISTER. PERFECTION

As weird as it may seem, Death telling Danny that he dies a grandfather would be incredibly liberating. Because he could live the rest of his life without fear, knowing that no matter what happens to him up until the point he becomes a grandfather, he’d live through it.

"Go back to the thing...the thing, the thing...the thing, thing, thing...You know wht I'm talking about..." HAHAHAH. I adore you! 😂

I love how your dog talks to you.

22:59 "he'll probably be back any minute now"

Omg, as a 41 yr old man I forgot about this movie. What a throwback classic! Ty guys!

Such a fun concept for a movie especially for the period of time it released. Watched it all the time when I was a kid. They could do a sequel or reboot and go all out with the different movies and large cast

" Is that DEAF!!!!? "😂😂😂😂

Less than 30 seconds in and I love it. "...barking at my neighbour."

Knew this would have a high STFU counter lol

I never saw this until my hubby. Thought it looked dumb. It is cute and clever and funny and I loooooove the dog scene lol

I frickin' love Last Action Hero. It definitely was before it's time. I don't think it gets the respect it deserves.

27:57 That was Danny Devito my friend; who also did two other famous movies with Arnold that you should react to in the future called "Twins" & "Junior." 😁

The voice of Whiskers the Cat was Danny DeVito.

Awesome Movie and Work Bro, Thanks 👍😎 Greetings from Helsinki, Finland 🇫🇮🇺🇸🇫🇮🇺🇸

I'm so glad you got watch this one tonight, I've been wanting to see you react to it for a while! It was well worth the wait! Hope you had a great Thanksgiving, and I, for one, am very thankful that I found your channel this year. It's helped a lot in what was, for me, a pretty rough year.

Whiskers' (cartoon cat cop) voice is done by Danny Devito.

I remember when this movie came out, but I've never actually seen it.

Holy crap, I didn't realize Ian McKellen played Death.

I predicted that you would love this and that it would set a new record for the times it made you say shut the f*** up. I counted 30 just in the KZfaq edit. Not sure if there are more in the full reaction. This was brilliantly done and just came out at the wrong time. Thanks for another fantastically entertaining reaction. Also, your shirt is amazing, and I would love to know where to get one.

"The thing!! The thing!!!" 😂😂😂😂😂😂

AWESOME MOVIE! I VOTED FOR IT! I've been watching this Movie since I was a kid, I think it is different from other Movies.

Fun fact. The guy playing The Ripper is acted Tom Noonan. Who also plays Frankenstein in The Monster Squad

Tune in next time, as J watches a movie in what appears to be a bunker.... as packs upon packs upon packs of Red Velvet Oreos are stacked to the ceiling. 😁

Going into this move completely blind… man, Blank has equal parts pranked you AND blessed you. *chef kiss* Now that’s a cheesy movie!

@JL So glad you got all the humor and references too, fun watch, thank you, your amazing editor the EOM staff and the patreons too.

He has to kill somebody with his pinky toe, he has to 😂😂. Great reaction J. I'm happy that you are watching more Arnold movies.

Criminally underrated movie, I love this one.

They had to change the advertising for this movie because of the 1993 bombing of the WTC.They have a giant inflatable balloon of Arnold's character holding a gun in one hand and dynamite in the other.They took out the dynamite and had him holding a badge.

Aim for the bushes, a reference to The Other Guys.

I think what the audience forgets is these action movie characters have at least a bit of superstrength. The Ripper's axe-toss was scary as hell. Maybe Jack electrocuted him because he had the skill advantage for close-quarters combat?

The guy who plays lieutenant Dekker was also in National Lampoon’s Vacation. He was John Candy’s co-worker at Wally World 😂 He was also Nick Nolte’s boss in 48 hours but I’m not sure if you’ve seen that yet. That’s another great Eddie Murphy movie!

saw this somewhat new in in 1994 at friends house and was an arnold fan ever since. this one never gets old.

31:49... If you watch that scene where he is talking directly into the camera to us you can see the camera crew reflected on the glass. This wasn't an error but a realization that he can now see the crew.

As soon as i seen this pop up i knew what i was watching. Much love to you J and everyone here.

The police captain is from 48hrs.

34:52 it's not that Burger King was popping. It's that McDonald's was and didn't need to pay for product placement. Same with Pepsi, they always were in the movies because Coke didn't need to be.

So many great moments... and I'm just talking about J's reactions alone. Loved it!

Danny devito was the voice of whiskers.

There is a novelization of this movie that is fantastic. For the scenes with the yelling police chief, you can read a page and a half of the most absurd gibberish!

lmfao i love your reactions, i lost my shit when you freaked out about the ticket box near the end, the thing thing, you know the thing, you know what the fuck im talkin bout XD

Red Truck is a 1956 Ford F100

the cat is Danny Devito they did a few movies together in the late 80s and 90s- Twins and Junior

You know, I've seen that movie years ago and I never ever got the "2 days to retirement" joke, they even effin played the Leathal Weapon theme LOL

Sir Ian McKellen plays death he also played Gandalf and Magneto.😊

Tell me you caught Gandalf/Magneto as Death (Ian McKellan)! So many cameos in this, it's crazy. I kept catching new ones every time I watched this, especially later in life. 90s legend right here! I remember having the toys too, like Jack Slater's car. Good timesss man; still holds up.

Oh man those puppers was telling you a story

I love the the mruder whistle has zerlo chill.

Amazing soundtrack

Rubber baby buggy bumpers!

2 packs on the way

Well you didn't disappoint with the Stallone "Shut the f**k up!" 😂 When Death appeared, I was waiting for you to say, "Shut the f**k up! Is that Gandalf from Lord of the Rings?" 😂😂😂😂 You're the best J.

Just like True Lies, this was highly under-rated due to so many movies from many different genres came out at this time.

The Grim Reaper (here from Bergman's classic film) always rocks a scythe - a sickle is a very small farm tool.

i haven’t seen this movie in years but i remembered almost all of it while watching this. loved it & adore you as always.

35:26 react 35:30.-Ernie Moore Jr.

Whiskers the cat detective he was voiced by Danny DeVito

The director was John McTiernan

Austin O'Brien (aka Danny Madigan) - also appeared in The Lawnmower Man (not long before Last Action Hero) and its infamous sequel, Jobe's War / Prehysteria! (same year as LAH) / My Girl 2.

Definitely wasn’t expecting to see Sonya Blade here 🤯

Thank you for watching this. Everyone hates on this movie. I personally love it.

WOOOOOOOOOOOO! YAS! I love this movie, saw it in theaters when it came out... back in my Middle School days. Wonderful film, there's not been another one like it since. 🙂

That "Number One" with the 👍🏻 instead of the typical ☝🏻 has always bothered me too, Jay.. I wonder if that was written into the script like that or if Anthony Quinn (the guy playing Tony Vivadi) improvised that one & they decided to just keep it in the film? It's so weird of a reaction, it has legitimately been in the back of my head ever since the first time I watched this & everytime I watch it again, I think about it yet again, lol.. SO glad I'm not alone on this one.. 😂😂

The Grim Reaper was played by Ian McKellan, Magneto from X Men

Good reaction as always. Need to strap you back into a quality laugh out loud movie. Hot Tub Time Machine will do the trick, I guarantee.

The most important line is _In this world, the bad guys can win._

Did you recognize the actor who played Death? Ian McClellan who played Gandolf in the Lord of the Rings

A criminally underrated movie

No Jay. The cat was not Joe Pesci. That was Danny DeVito. You also missed Death as Gandalf the Grey. Then there was Sharon Stone who was Arnold's wife in Total Recall.

Man they got the red velvet oreos in like every Walmart by me. I'll send you a bunch lol
