Sandra is so stinking cute in this movie. I love the moment when she is seated opening the presents and just smiles at the warmth of the family that has taken her in. Edit: 10:52

There's nothing wrong with Hallmark movies. We all need some romantic movies in our lives to balance out all the violent movies I watch

One of my all-time favorite comfort-media, holiday movies!! I found myself on my own at 18 and abandoned by my father, who kicked me out and moved out of state without leaving me any contact info. My then boyfriend/now husband's family basically adopted me as their own. I had my own place, but his mother fed me dinner just about every night I wasn't working or in class, while I worked my way through college. There was *never* a time I wasn't welcome in their home. This movie came out around the same time, and I used to pop the VHS into my VCR, all the time, and watch it as I fell asleep. I love the casting and the awkward comedy through miscommunication. And, Joe Jr never fails to make me laugh. So excited to watch this with you! ✨💖✨

So glad you kept the scene of the paper boy on the bike. My brothers and I used to rewind and watch that scene over and over. Laughed till we cried.

Toni's reaction when the paper boy crashed - priceless!

Sometimes what makes for the best Romance movies is the suspension of disbelief. It’s like a Fairytale.

David, just remember, these are the kind of movies where you just need to turn your brain off, and just enjoy it.

A requirement of romance IS the happy ending. It's WHY romance is a major genre in books and movies. Sometimes we just need to believe everything is going to turn out fine in the end. Like a Calgon bath, 'take me away,' romance delivers that heavy sigh of relief. Happy tears are a plus.

My mother loved this movie. It brought back so many great memories. I'm glad you watched this one.

I absolutely LOVE this movie!!! Everyone is fantastic & the script is perfect! Glynis Johns is absolutely adorable & Bill Pullman should have become a major leading man after this was released.

It's ok Toni...I've probably watched this movie 20 times & I cried right along with you! Two other great Bullock movies are Miss Congeniality (very funny) & The Lake House (romance). Love you guys!!❤

This has been one of my favorite movies since it released. Thanks for this lovely reaction.

Hey Toni, I thought you would cry when Joe Jr broke up with his girl. Not the other 3 heart tugging moment in the movie that let us fall madly in love with Lucy and her depressingly sad life. All alone working at the CTA toll booth every holiday after her dad died and hauling a 40 pound tree to the 2nd floor window. ------ Thanks for the great reaction and Toni's heart of gold. David on the other hand.... BaHHHHHH Humbug.

While You Were Sleeping was a film I saw in the theaters in 1995, and it began my decades-long celebrity crush on Sandra Bullock....

Dave, you're funny. You regularly tell Toni to "suspend her expectations of anything making sense" with films like the Monty Python movies, yet during this movie, you have repeatedly said "this makes no sense, you've questioned the passage of time, etc. To the point of mocking it. It kinda seems like, as much as you'd hate to admit it, and would rather we all believe that you think this type film is ridiculous, you enjoyed it .

To compare this to a Hallmark movie is so offending 🤒 My favorite rom-com of all time, and it really deserved all the success it had. I also love the score. I'm glad Toni liked it.

Thumbs up for the Shipley's Donuts comment.

David! Don't get mad at me, but I'm with Toni on this one. You are a party-pooper. I really think you're a pretty sweet guy, so just let me rant a bit. I must be an outlier where men are concerned because I was crying at the same places Toni was. The purpose of this movie is to enjoy the sweetness, not to pick apart the improbabilities of the plot...the point of the movie was to be funny due to the compounding worsening of the situation throughout the movie. I was tearing up when Lucy was talking to Peter at the hospital, despite him being in a coma; when Lucy got the present and stocking at the house; when Lucy asked Jack if there was any reason she shouldn't marry Peter; when Jack was talking to Peter at the hospital, despite him being in a coma, and telling Peter he envied him; when Lucy told the family she loved them; etc. You just didn't allow yourself to enjoy the warmth of the movie, which I guess is a guy thing, so you're absolved. Don't tell anyone, but I like Hallmark movies too...they're romantic. This is one of my favorite movies, really enhanced by the gorgeous thematic music from Randy Edelman. But, like you said, it's not your kind of movie, which is fine. I think a lot of men probably feel the same way. I guess I'm just a little bit of a freak. And you really are a nice, gentle guy...much nicer than a lot of men I encounter, so thanks for letting me rant. Please let Toni see this comment. :)

Oh what a perfect movie for Toni!! I love this one !! Sweet!! Romance!! Great cast of characters!! Love the supporting cast ! Peter Boyle from Young Frankenstein and Everybody Loves Raymond , and Jack Warden he’d been in a million movies and Glynis Johns she was the mother in the original Mary Poppins!!

I cry every single time I watch this movie. Without fail. I love it so much.

Oh, the ending review is funny. For the record, when I met my wife it WAS love at first sight for both of us. That was almost 30 yrs ago (in May '24 it will be). We didn't get engaged until 2 yrs later, but it was mostly long distance - really long distance - in between. In fact we only had about 5 months total together over the almost 3 yrs before we married in '97. Amusingly, my wife and Sandra - in this movie - look a lot a like. Also it's wild that this movie is nearly 30 yrs old!

My favorite rom com , a comfort movie ❤ and the plot IS really original !

To say Jack and Lucy's relationship was based on lies is a bit much. Sure, there were some lies, and people probably shouldn't get engaged after just a week and a half (although I think it was closer to 4 if she gave 2 weeks notice), but they actually had quite a bit of quality time together - I don't know how long that walk was from the truck to the apartment, but they talked about some huge things, which is something that neither of them did a lot of I would reckon. It is a sweet movie. I think it is quite a few notches above the standard Hallmark fare, and it may even be one of my favorite romcoms.

I love that you watched this. One of my fav movies.. I love this movie. Better even then sleepless in Seattle..

Does anyone, ever, anywhere, in the universe, ever buy snowglobes? Must be a movietrope.

I remember I read a review of this movie in Entertainment weekly back then that said Lucy was too cute and pretty to be lonely. You nailed it in the head David.

I absolutely love this movie!! And I’m a 55year old man!!

Aw, I watch this movie every Christmas.

If I would've fallen & knocked myself out....then woke up to Sandra Bullock, there'd be zero complaining!😊

Grumpy David and wallet-smelling Toni. 🤣❤️

Great reaction.I just love this movie

I think Toni would love Moonstruck starring Cher and Nicholas Cage. Would make a perfect Valentine's Day movie.

Sorry for all the comments but I love this movie. And I think it's funny he's making fun of Hallmark movies. My daughter and I watched 24 hrs of Hallmark movies (2 years ago). It was 15 movies in 24 hrs STRAIGHT. Actually, it was more than 24 hrs because we finished the last movie. She didn't quite make it through all of them, but I did. There's 2 youtube videos if you're interested. Why did we do it? Like climbing a mountain. Because it was there.

Toni, you are fun to watch these kind of movies with.

I've seen this so many times and I absolutely Love it !!!

One of my favorite romantic comedies

Fun one, you two! 😊

Great movie. Other great rom coms are You Got Mail, When Harry Met Sally, One Bright Day, Blast From The Past.

You'll have to do _You've Got Mail_ next. It has a similar vibe to this one.

I LOVE this movie! Other romcoms you'd like are The Proposal, Just Go With It, Music and Lyrics, Notting Hill . . .

"She's so pretty." She doesn't have anything on you, Toni!

Thanks for the fun watchlaong! Some rom-com and misc suggestions: Four Weddings & A Funeral Meet Joe Black The Lake House Shirley Valentine The Commitments Fabulous Baker Brothers Stranger Than Fiction Moonstruck Thomas Crown Affair (Pierce Brosnan, Rene Russo) In The Line of Fire (Clint Eastwood, Rene Russo) Tin Cup (Kevin Costner, Rene Russo) Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil Cinema Paradiso (not the director's cut) The Way (2010) Family Man Bull Durham About Time A Good Year Grosse Pointe Blank The Sting Sleepers (1996) Bridget Jones Diary The Goodbye Girl Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow 84 Charring Cross

Next time Toni does Rom coms alone!!! Hey David give romance a chance !!😂👍

You guys are hilarious and you have infectious laughs

My favorite rom com!

Toni's right, never going out will do it. I have never been on a 'date' in my life and I don't 'look', as I don't like to bother ladies minding their own business. So...... It happens Loved the paperboy wipe out. I once ended up on the hood of a honda civic in high school because I was riding my bike while watching the girls play softball. One minute I was watching an outfielder chase a fly ball, and next I was staring up at a North Dakota blue sky. And in grade school my bike had a front tire where the front tire bolts where stripped, so when I hit a pothole coming down a hill, I popped a wheelie, passid my font tire, then watched my front tire pass me before a whipped out. Gavel on asphalt, that one hurt. I don't mind the cold Dave, even though I've been in Hawaii for over a decade, I lived my growing up in Northern Arizona and North Dakota and then Seattle, but Seattle is wet, so It's a little different. If you have the clothes for it, you get used to it, and come christmas I really miss it. The "Aloha" "Shaka" christmas just isn't it. Toni, for Christmas. "Snowed In For Christmas". Trust me..

Best line...."Lucy, you are born into a family. You do not join them like you d the marines".

My fav rom com of all time

Did I miss the premiere? Four cries...3 I don't knows...did I see David tear up a couple of times...??? Laughing brings out a whole new side of Toni ! Have you two seen Monsters Inc.? You two are top tier couples reactors....thank you so much for your (virtual) company.

Next Rom Com , Toni goes Solo!!!!

I can't with these two the wife always crying her eyes out while the husband laughing his ass off😂😂😂😂

Independence Day guys? Have you seen that?

I saw this movie in the theatre. It was my introduction to Sandra Bullock. I think Lucy just had a crush on Peter.

❤ ¡OOOOO', Yes...! Mr. Dave, she'll Love This Confusing Movie of a LoVe Affair...? 🤨

David after watching your reaction to this movie I must say do not watch Sleepless in Seattle or You've Got Mail or Just Like Heaven or It Happened One Night or any other rom-com. You've got to ignore certain aspects because it's not real life, it's just a movie.

Sandra is just so darned cute. Such a dilemma to wake up to. : )

Its not someone's looks Its their personality That's how a good looking person can be lonely 🥺🥺🥺

check out Sandra in THE NET

Please watch Patriots Day (2016), Captain Phillips (2013), and maybe Watership Down (1978)?

Y'all are awesome! Enjoyed that reaction very much! Watch Sandra Bullock in 'The Network '.

David, you are a wet blanket. Instead of laughing at Toni's tears, how aboutletting her feel this? Party pooper is right!!! This is better than most Hallmark movies (formulaic in different licales). Just because its not your kind of movie doesnt mean you should make fun of it Toni doesnt belittle or make fun of YOUR kind of movies.....so why do you have to do that to HERS??

For Christmas you guys Should react to The Santa Clauses which is a Disney + show a continuation of The Santa Clause Trilogy. Season 2 episodes are being released this November every Thursday I think you will figure it out.❤

I'd be interested to see your reaction to The Bridges Of Madison County - Streep/Eastwood.. or Dangerous Liaisons - Pfeiffer/Thurman/Close/Malcovitch/Keanu Reaves...

You guys should watch Bird Box scary movie with Sandra Bullock 😊

You should watch 1996 movie Truth about cats & dogs starring Jeneane Garofalo and Uma Thurman!

This movie is all about the supporting cast.

Need to get Toni more tissues while she is sleeping.

MZ. Toni 😠 You cost me, $5 Bucks..! I Had Guessed You'd Be BAWLIN'😭 At Her Speaking of Her Dad.... ❤

Hello guys please reacts Out of Africa (1985) Dick Tracy (1990) and White Nights (1985)

Toni should not watch Bird Box. Because that is Sandra B. in SCARY!

This is a sweet movie that could have been so much better. Joe Jr is a real liability.

Now we now that even rom-coms can be scary and sad for Toni. AND that she would smell a stranger's wallett lol

These mashed potatoes are so creamy.

Have you seen Barbie? That’s hilarious

Now David, Stop being such a negative Nelly. Movies need a suspension of reality. So let just let Toni enjoy the flick and let the movie magic create the picture perfect ending that we never get in life. ------- That's what movies are for. David is like that girl in, "Miracle on 34th St". ------ The mother raised her to be a skeptic and she lost all her sense of childhood wonder. -------- I know life is crap, let's let movies give us some hope that good guys can come out first.

So many red flags in this one... even more than in The Proposal - which is quite fun though a bit dodgy...

I remember going on a double date and decided I wanted to see DIE HARD III instead of this and the dates weren’t happy

How about a great western, like Tombstone.

its better than Speed

"You give up your seat every day in the train." "Well... But that's not heroic." "It is to the person who sits in it." Fun Fact: I have looked high and low, but the paperboy has never been identified in any article. Authentic Battle Damage Fact: In a transition scene, a paperboy is shown slipping off his bike. This was actually an accident and the actor broke his wrist, but they decided to keep it in the movie. Script Rewrites Fact: The original screenplay was about a woman in a coma and a man pretending to be her fiancé. Many studio executives thought this to be too predatory, but one suggested reversing the roles. Once the script was rewritten, the movie was picked up by Hollywood Pictures. Location Location Fact: The Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) shut down the Randolph and Wabash station four weekends in a row for filming. In order to film the scene where Lucy (Sandra Bullock) jumps down on to the tracks to save Peter (Bill Pullman), they moved to the Sedgewick station for just one day, which conveniently enough includes one section of rail without any live currents, which was much safer for everyone involved. Although the CTA had never shut down one of their stations for a film project during the day, they made an exception for this movie.

People watch these movie reactions mostly because they have seen and love the movie. Watching it being sneered through from beginning to end is a pretty crappy experience.

David I take it you’re not into Rom Coms !!!😂

How dare you compare While You Were Sleeping to Hallmark movies x-D

The Blind Side with Sandra Bullock and Tim McGraw is a Great movie , not a Rom Com!! Sandra won an Oscar for this one!!!!

Ruin the moment
