I asked for suggestions and you delivered! So many great films that have never seen the light of day on a YouTube reaction. It was a real challenge narrowing down to only five films. Trust me, some of the suggestions will appear on other polls some day. A couple almost made the cut here, but I found a handful of reactions and decided to stay true to the rule of the poll.
Did I pick the best movies? Probably not, but darn if I'm not interested to see the ones on this list. Admittedly, this is a wild mix of genres and tones so what are you in the mood for?
I mostly included the IMDB description here in italics:
The Manchurian Candidate (1962) Frank Sinatra acted? I'm learning so many things. An American POW in the Korean War is brainwashed as an unwitting assassin for an international Communist conspiracy.
The Shadow (1994) Alec Baldwin stars what looks to be a noirish superhero detective flick. The pictures make me think the tone of the film is pure adventure fun. In 1930s New York City, The Shadow (Alec Baldwin) battles his nemesis, Shiwan Khan (John Lone), who is building an atomic bomb.
Sphere (1998) From the author of Jurassic Park starring Dustin Hoffman, Sharon Stone, and Samuel L Jackson. A spaceship is discovered under three hundred years' worth of coral growth at the bottom of the ocean.
Death to Smoochy (2002) Director Danny Devito brings a Robin Williams-led dark comedy? Outrageous. A kids' show is fired in disgrace while his replacement, Sheldon Mopes, A.K.A. Smoochy the Rhino, finds himself a rising star. Unfortunately for Sheldon, the business of kids' television isn't all child's play.
Silence (2016) Andrew Garfield( a truly great actor. He has been different in everything I've seen him in) and Adam Driver star in this Martin Scorcese film! In the 17th century, two Portuguese Jesuit priests travel to Japan in an attempt to locate their mentor, who is rumored to have committed apostasy, and to propagate Catholicism.
