"Dave, I would have taken a bullet for you." -That gets me every time! Dave is truly one of the most underrated, heartfelt and fantastically written movies. I love it! Also, Kevin Kline is one of the most underrated actors of our time. Wish he had done more after the '90s.

I’d vote for Dave.

"I would've taken a bullet for you." Simple, sincere... That line...is the hallmark of what it means to be a good leader. When those you lead aren't commanded to do what needs to be done, or because they feel a sense of obligation or compulsion, but because they WANT to...because your leadership is worthy of their effort.

Frank Langella is so good in this. He makes Bob believably intimidating without becoming a cartoon villain. I really wish the problems in the US were simple enough that they could be solved by good people sitting down together and talking things out.

"I would have taken a bullet for you." One of the best lines that makes my heart melt every time I hear it.

Kevin Kline won the Oscar for Fish Called Wanda in 1988, five years later, after several ensemble pieces he finally graduated to leading man in this film. Just a good wholesome film.

I love Ving Rhames in this. He goes from, "I'm here." To, "Do you think a sweater vest would look good on me?" And then him being in the campaign office at the end! Chef's kiss. It was such a nuanced performance that deserves a lot more credit.

"Uh-oh. Where'd your friends go Bob?" Love it! And I've loved this movie for a long time. This was a fun watch-a-long. Thanks!

Kevin Kline is fantastic actor. He actually won an Oscar for playing Otto in "A Fish Called Wanda". He was in a great western with Kevin Costner and Danny Glover called "Silverado".

I can’t believe it took this long for her to finally see Dave. I knew she would love it.

Carrie: “Okeh, okeh, okeh.” Carrie is now Leo Getz!

President Dave Kovic/bill mitchell: “she hates me.” Chief of staff and communications director: YES!

I love the sheer numbers of real-life personalities who got cameos, from celebrities like Arnold Schwartzenegger and Oliver Stone, to politicians like Tip O'Neill, even to the reporters in the press room. Such a who's who of early '90s politics

Props to Frank Langella, he always adds a touch of class to a film. He can terrify onscreen without even trying. Great work from the whole cast, really, and Laura Linney looks so stunning!

It makes me so happy that you watched this. Not many people even know this movie exists. This came out when I was a jaded 16yr old, and I so wanted to have a president like this as well. Great reaction

Kevin Kline has so much range. He makes a great villain (like Otto) but also a romantic lead, dramatic lead, and he's very funny when he wants to be. Great actor, all around. And Sigourney is an icon. I love this movie.

You are not the only one who would like someone like Dave as POTUS.

Kevin Kline, who plays the President and Dave, is one of my favorite actors. He is an award-winning actor on stage and screen. Some of his best movies: - Silverado - A western, he plays a gunslinger with a heart of gold, in a cast including Scott Glenn, Danny Glover, Kevin Costner, Jeff Goldblum, and John Cleese. - The Big Chill - A group of college friends reunite after one of their own takes his own life. Lots of amazing music - The Pirates of Penzance - Gilbert and Sullivan's operetta takes a tough comic turn with a huge cast. Kline reprises his Tony Award-winning role as The Pirate King, with the rest of the original, Broadway cast: Linda Ronstadt, Rex Smith, George Rose, and Tony Azito. The only one who is not the original cast is Angela Lansbury as Ruth. - In & Out - As a beloved high school teacher in a small town outed on the Academy Awards telecast by a former student who just won Best Actor. Tom Sellick, Debbie Reynolds, Joan Cusack, and Matt Dillon. - A Fish Called Wanda - Written and starring Monty Python member John Cleese, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Python member Michael Palin. Kline won the Best Supporting Actor Oscar. - Grand Canyon - An ensemble drama with Kline, Mary McDonnell, Danny Glover, and others. - De-Lovely - A musical fantasia/biography of composer-lyricist Cole Porter with Kline as Porter. Ashley Judd plays his wife. Lots of great songs from the 20s, 30s, 40s, and 50s written by Porter. - French Kiss - A rom-com with Meg Ryan...Kline plays the French leading man. - Soapdish - A huge ensemble comedy with Sally Field, Whoopi Goldberg, Robert Downey, Jr, and Elizabeth Shue. Behind the scenes of a TV soap opera. - Chaplin - A biopic of Charlie Chaplin starring Robert Downey, Jr. as Chaplin. Kline plays silent film star Douglas Fairbanks, one of Chaplin's closest Hollywood friends. There are about 15 other solid films he's made. Silverado, The Big Chill, Grand Canyon, and French Kiss are all films written and/or directed by Laurence Kasdan

"and we're walking; and we're walking"... Love that line...

“Uh oh, where your friends go BOB!”😂❤ High five!🙌🏼

The lady reporter is (real life reporter) Helen Thomas. She's been covering nearly every presidential press conferences since John F. Kennedy.-"Thank you Mr. President" was her tag line.

The Larry King interview about the conspiracy was with Oliver Stone. The inside joke was he is a conspiracy theorist. He did the movie JFK a couple of years before. Btw great movie starring Kevin Costner.

Everyone is telling you about all of Kevin Kline's movies which are so good...love Soapdish! But, he's also in one of the most heartbreaking movies, Sophie's Choice (along with the amazing Meryl Streep). It's a hard movie to watch, but well worth it.

"Oh. Bob." I remember that from seeing this in the theater when it came out. Perfect delivery.

I can't believe you didn't mention that the secret service guy was Marsellus Wallace from Pulp Fiction. (he looks odd with hair, but that voice is unmistakable) Oh, and if you want another role from 'Dave' you like, invite Carley over and check out 'French Kiss' with him and Meg Ryan. ...you'll both love it. It'll rank ALMOST up there with a Kevin Costner movie. :)

Dave is one of those handful of movies that are simply perfect.

Kevin Kline gave a ferocious performance in Sophie's Choice. (It is also one of Meryl Streeps most astonishingly amazing performances.) Another Kline film I absolutely love is The Emperor's Club. It is very underrated, and usually overshadowed by Dead Poets Society (because both movies are about a teacher at an exclusive prep school), but The Emperor's Club is definitely worth a watch.

The older woman reporter in the front row was Helen Thomas, a veteran White House reporter (for 50 years) who did cameos as herself in 2 films about Presidents.

"Silverado" (1985) is a good, solid western starring Kevin Kline and with an excellent supporting cast of Kevin Costner, Scott Glenn, Danny Glover, Linda Hunt, and Brian Dennehy: if you are now ready for more Kevin Kline. But you can also find Kevin Kline in the story of a group of baby boomer college friends reuniting after 15 years who gather together for the funeral of yet another of the old group (corpse played by Kevin Costner). Costarring Glenn Close, William Hurt, Jeff Goldblum, Tom Berenger, & JoBeth Williams, this 1983 comedy drama has an outstanding sound track of old time rock and roll. Oscar nominated for Best Picture, someday watch "The Big Chill".

Back in the days when instead of just complaining about the current president, we made movies and TV series on how to be a great president. Can't we just go back to that instead of constant hate?

Cassie, "Dave" is also in a famous movie called "The Big Chill" with Glenn Close, Jeff Goldblum and a number of others. PLEASE WATCH IT with Carlie.

Such a wonderfully underrated comedy. I've adored this movie since the first time I saw it as a young teen. Dave's speech after firing Bob about feeling powerless to help the country just feels more real as time goes on. I hope everyone strives to be like Dave in their lives: pleasant and selfless and finding joy in the happiness of others.

Bright Angel, Miss Cassie, you're 100% right. We desperately need politicians who are like Dave. Being nice to others, showing compassion, being humble, and helping others when needed are all attributes of a selfless person. Many people love living a life of greed and power and care less for the greater good of others. Serving themselves instead of the people who they should represent. Dave is a dream we all wish for in our hearts for our country.

Unbelievably cute when you didn't know they were the same actor, great fun watching as always! I hadn't seen this movie in a long time, it's like watching it with a friend!

33:35: "How can this end?" -- the best part of every narrative!

Kevin Klein won an Oscar for playing Otto in "A Fish Called Wanda." Very good actor. The chemistry between him and Sigourney Weaver in "Dave" was outstanding.

"Are they gonna TELL the First Lady? They have to tell the First Lady. Ah, are they gonna tell The First Lady!" The Bad Guy Politician is played by Frank Langella. He rose to fame as the titular Count in 'Dracula (1979)', so yeah, he's generally Not a Good Guy. ;).

5:35 when she realizes it’s the same actor…..Priceless💂‍♂️🪖⛑️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇨🇦

Ben Kingsley(Vice President Nance) won an Oscar for "Gandhi." Ving Rhames(Secret Service agent Stevenson) is also great in "Out Of Sight," with George Clooney, Jennifer Lopez, Don Cheadle, Michael Keaton, and Samuel L. Jackson.

The music of this movie is SOOO comforting.

I'd recommend "Life as a house", "The Big Chill" and "Sophie's Choice" as other good Kevin Kline films. And don't worry Kevin Costner in 13 Days plays a great role, and that should also segway great into his role in JFK.

Cassie, I wondered if you'd pick up on Otto. So glad it was "after". Great action/comedy with Bruce Willis called RED. Also the sequel RED 2. All star cast, and I'm not kidding. Invite Carly for this one. -Thomas

The fact that she didn't realize Kevin Kline was playing both parts at first, or that he had played Otto in A Fish Called Wanda, is a testament to his talent and skill. Next, she should watch French Kiss.

This is the kind of movie, I just know, Cassie would love

This was such a great film! One of my favorites from the feel good era of the 90s

i miss the days when an IDENTICAL STRANGER was the oddest thing we could've had in the White House.

One of my favourite movies! Severly underrated! Also, all the cameos are due to the fact that Ivan Reitman is the director and they were all in his previous movies (Beethoven, Kindergarten Cop). And yes, that sandwich looks AMAZING.

I always liked to think Dave won a spot on city council and worked his way up to a national office...with Ellen by his side. Such a great movie.

"They don't actually do this in real life, do they?" They do this all the time. Politicians, celebs, they do this and a lot more that can't be said here.

"We need someone nice and kind." Actually, we kinda have that now in the US.

Dave is the president every country deserves.

Though it is out of my normal genre of movies, I watched this back in the 90s, and though it almost never came up since, I've never forgotten it. When I saw you were reacting to it. Must See!

"I would have taken a bullet for you." Such a good line.

This is such an underrated movie. Kevin Kline is so good in everything and this one is no exception. I watch this semi-regularly just because its fun

As soon as this showed up in my feed I got excited. I love this movie, but more than that, I knew instantly that Cassie would love it and will have a great reaction.

Ever since I stumbled across this channel I thought 'Hmm, Dave is a movie that Cassie would love...' and I'm glad to see it show up. A wonderful and charming film.

This has been one of my favorites for close to three decades. My wife and I watch it a couple of times a year. Had a lot of fun watching you react to it.

This movie is absolutely adorable. Dave is one of my favorite movie presidents.

When i was a little girl my family went to an Orioles game and they happened to be filming the scene of Dave throwing the 1st pitch, so I'm in the stadium somewhere.

Kline ...also to note..... married to Phoebe Cates (Known for Fast Times At Ridgemont High). People rolled their eyes at the time due to the 16 year age difference. Now they have been married 35 years with 2 children. A successful Hollywood romance...Well they live in NY...still.

Oh, I love this movie! We quote it often in our family. ❤ "We're walking, we're walking, and we're stopping." 😂😂😂

Kevin Kline's married to Phoebe Cates _(Gremlins, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, Gremlins 2)._

I remember my friend invited me to see this at the cinema with him, I had absolutely no idea what it was about.

"and we're walking, we're walking...." I catch myself saying that sooo often

If you remember Richard Dreyfuss in Jaws, he played a similar role in a delightful comedy named "Moon Over Paradox." It's outside the US, Dreyfuss is an actor who gets kinda forced into the role. Worth a watch.

One of my all time favourite movies.Dave for President!

One of my favorites. Dave for President.

When you catch yourself saying okay okay okay always makes me smile

5:27 We better see this moment again at the 2024 Popcorn Awards - Year In Review

It's raining here. This wholesome, funny movie takes me back to my childhood like a warm blanket. Your reaction is so sweet and it makes it even more enjoyable. Like movie theater butter on, well... popcorn. Love the channel and looking forward to 13 Days!

Dave was weirdly one of me and my brother’s favorite movies as kids. That line, “Thank you for being here, Ellen” always cracked us up.

I would've never recognized the face of the Secret Service agent, but I immediately recognized the voice.

Kevin Kline is so endlessly charming. Love him in this role especially.

Oh wow, I've had that theme tune stuck in my head for 25+ years! It was used in a TV advert but I couldn't remember what for. Now I finally know where it's originally from. Thanks!

one of my mom's top ten movies. is my mom talking to you? youre on a roll with her favorite films.

This movie is such a perfect little dream of a movie. It's tragic that it can only be a dream. But I love all of the touches and it truly earned the goodwill you have about a Dave. He's a truly great person and you see why people would be inspired by him. As mentioned by the others, the incredible amount of celebrity and political cameos just cemented it in a dream we all wish we were part of.

This is one of may adaptations of a story called The Prisoner of Zenda. The most recent version before this was called Moon over Paarador, starring Richard Dreyfuss in the Dave role, Raol Julia as the Bob role, and directed by Paul Mazusk,

13 days is AMAZING! Can’t wait for the reaction. And it’s pretty accurate with everything that was going on in the world at that moment.

This is a classic already! At least in my eyes. Out off all the president movies maybe the sweetest because you have a balance of comedy drama and love story. So well written, directed and acted. I’ve seen it so many times and I never get tired of it. That’s when you know it will always be a hit.

They don't make great romantic comedies like this anymore, like they did in the 80s, 90s, early 2000s. In the age of big budget movies, comedies are now rarer. This one was a much loved comedy and love interest with Signourney. Thanks for a great reaction and replay of this movie.

Under-rated movie that’s overflowing with some of the most talented actors of an entire generation!

If you love Dave as President you will love him as a teacher in a small town. Watch, "In and Out." One of the funniest movies I've seen.

When i was a young guy i was moving young and older lawyers in Washington DC. at the time this movie came out and they said they loved it.

love, love, love this movie...haven't seen it in a while, but so glad i got to rewatch it with you...man i wish we had people in the WH like this .....

When a film gets you emotional you know its a good film... when Cassie ges you emotional, you get emotional too! 🙂

Kevin Kline is a fantastic actor! I love this film. Ving Rhames steals every scene he's in.

This is movie is STACKED with incredible actors.

This movie is based on a 1894 Btitish novel by Anthony Hope, entitled "The Prisoner of Zenda." In the novel, the imposter must impersonate a King. It was made into (drama) movie in 1937. Then there was a (comedy) remake in 1988 called "Moon Over Parador," starring Richard Dreyfus, in which he must impersonate a South American dictator. I love that movie! Dreyfus is so funny! And then came this charmer in '93.

Love Love Love Kevin Kline!!! Such an awesome actor and a man of many accents. He has so many good movies but these are my faves; Hope you give them a watch (or throw them on a poll) French Kiss, Soapdish, I Love You To Death, In and Out, and The Pirates of Penzance!

This is such a good movie. Always knew Cassie would love it. Great cast and Kevin Kline is awesome. Plus Dave is one of the best fictional presidents ever.

This was the last movie I watched with my favorite aunt ,when she was passing away. I went for a goodbye week with her. And picked this as one of the movie nights. I wanted to give her a big more of political hope. And she appeared to be paying attention to it more than some of the others, and really enjoyed it. More movies like this need to be made.

Charles Grodin who played Murray here is a great actor , he has a movie with Robert de Niro called `` Midnight Run `` one of the best comedies ever , you will love it .

Interesting that a whole bunch of movies came out in the 1990s that were either presidentially themed or had the U.S. President as one of its main characters: Dave, The American President, Air Force One, Independence Day, Nixon, JFK, My Fellow Americans, Primary Colors, Wag the Dog, Absolute Power. Even Mars Attacks.

Kevin Kline is one of my favorite actors. If you haven't seen "The Emperor's Club," it is basically Great Value "Dead Poet's Society," but Kevin Kline is phenomenal in it. I think his worst acting performance of his entire career was probably Wild Wild West, and he was pretty damned good in that, which speaks to his career.

I've seen this movie more than a few times over the years, but I was pretty young when it first came out, and clearly it's been a while, cause I'm just now realizing that was Laura Linney playing the secretary, wow. I smiled big when I saw this thumbnail, cause I knew this would be a fun and sweet movie for you Cassie, and watching you enjoy a feel good movie makes me feel good. Catch you on the next one 😉

No lie, Dave was one of my favorite 90s comedies.

Kevin Kline is multi talented. He also does the voice of Mr. Calvin Fischoeder on the animated show Bob's Burgers 😂😂

Cassie, I think every voter wants a Dave in charge. But, as the bard once said, "Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely." I also think that for most politicians they truly do want to do what's good for their constituents, but it seems that they fall victim to what others tell them to get re-elected instead of what's right. Take a look at the 1939 movie 'Mr. Smith Goes to Washington'. I think you'll enjoy it.

"Distinguished Gentleman" - 90s "Washington" comedy with Eddie Murphy. He had a lot of fun on that movie.

About Kevin Kline, some people noticed that he played over the top or villainous characters when he has a moustache. But he played straight likable characters when he was clean shaven. I'll let other people discuss whether this is true.
