Strangelove50

Two more great Soviet/Cold War era films that should have been included, hopefully can consider in the future; both of these based on real historical events: Thirteen Days- Kevin Costner and Bruce Greenwood, a great dramatization of the Cuban Missile Crisis, coming to the brink of nuclear war, and The Right Stuff, uplifting story of the early space race. PIB did react to both of these, would love to see Addie do so, as well.

So many great movies in this list. Hunt for Red October, The Fugitive, A Few Good Men and Crimson Tide are all in my all-time favourite list. So whichever of those 4 wins, it's a good choice

Philip Davetas

It needs to be THE FUGITIVE. Great flick.

Strangelove50

Yep, definitely loved that part.

Byrd N. Hand

"No Way Out" frankly has one of the best (and most underrated) twist endings ever, IMO.

Strangelove50

Most of those were great movies. I voted for The Fugitive this time. Since you put some Cold War/Soviet era and nuclear threat themes, I hope you'll consider these in the future: first a forgotten, underrated gem I was disappointed I could not find reactions on any channels like this: No Way Out-1987, with Kevin Costner and Gene Hackman- would love to see you be the first! The more recent Bridge of Spies, and the old time classics Dr. Strangelove and On the Beach would be great, too.

I find it easiest to enjoy Sorkin's work if I assume it takes place in an alternate reality.

LaserLamb

I've heard these are all excellent, but I've only seen "A Few Good Men" & "The Fugitive".

Guillaume Huet

So many great movies in this list! It's hard to choose one^^ The Fugitive and Hunt for Red October are two of my most beloved movies ever. The others are must-see classics.

Alex Tan

Crimson Tide (1995) is the chopped liver of this poll as it's dead last. Hopefully a Tony Scott poll follows. #MoreTonyScottForAddieCounts

Brent Petty

Great list. Wish PiB would put up a poll with options as good as these.

Julian San

Damn, these are ALL great movies. I’m surprised it isn’t a straight up dead heat!

Andre Agog

It's Heat for me. I'm a big Michael Mann fan. Red October would be an acceptable second.

Choi_Yujin_Stan_Account

I voted A Few Good Men as it is my fav on the list but plenty of good choices.. out of the two that seem to be battling it out, I'd hope The Fugitive pulls through

Choi_Yujin_Stan_Account

If you haven't seen a movie then you have no idea if another movie is better or wose

Pendragon1951

I know it takes a while to do these but I want to watch Addie every day:) by the way I'm ok with either Fugitive or Red October:)

Ian Forbes

Perhaps the most solid lineup I’ve seen in any reactor’s poll ever. Not even an average film in the bunch. They’re all amazing! This should be a vote for order of reacting to them all. 😀

HeyHeyJK

Technically, all of those are great so just watch all of 'em!

Lemuel Daher

I've never commented on one of Addie's posts before, I've never asked y'all for anything in my life... but I am begging Addie, all my fellow patrons, and any listening angels to PLEASE allow Addie to react to "A Few Good Men."

Doug

Interesting list, I’m not sure they have anything in common other than being really good movies. 🙂 If I had to pick one out of these it would be The Usual Suspects, I’m kind of surprised Addie didn’t watch it for the channel before! Hunt for Red October is probably my second choice, if only because it’s been a while since I saw it. But honestly I’m down with anything on this list I think (I don’t know if I ever saw Heat. 🤷‍♂️)

Happy Hanukkah

They all live happily ever after?

David Martin

all of these are great...this is tough

carbsix

Ya there's a lot in that movie that would never happen in reality, but if u can get past them it's a good watch

Scot Jebens

I'll spoil it - he was dead the whole time!

Scot Jebens

I went berzerk when they saluted the officer indoors without covers on!!!

e4tless

‘i dont care’

e4tless

The Fugitive hands down!

Byrd N. Hand

My hesitation about that one winning is that it's very possibly going to get people clamoring for Addie to then also go down the Jack Ryan rabbit hole... and, let's face it, between "Mission: Impossible," "Planet of the Apes," and potentially "The Naked Gun," "The Karate Kid," and Dirty Harry, she's got a lot of franchises already on her plate at this time. 🤔

Thomas Wetherell

It doesn’t look like it will right now but I’m really pulling for The Hunt for Red October.

Thats MR. Baldamort

The fugitive and hunt for red october are my votes.

Cameron Kerby

Wow. Good poll. It’s hard to choose just one. I like them all except The Hunt For Red October. And that’s just because I haven’t seen it.

Randee Carreno

Happy Thursday, Addie! 😊 All great choices for this poll. "The Fugitive" easily got my vote with "Hunt For Red October" as my second choice. Have a great day today! 😊

Kyle Brandon Sanger

'Heat', one of my favorite films! A cinematic masterpiece! An unknown remake and based on real events.

Byrd N. Hand

"The Fugitive" is definitely the best title here, IMO. "A Few Good Men" has never interested me enough to actually see it... 🤷‍♂️

Ben Wheeler

Fugitive all day every day

Jay Perry

No spoilers. I can't tell you the best thing about The Usual Suspects.

Alex Tan

Crimson Tide (1995) is dead last.

Brent Petty

All good ones. I voted the Fugitive but I'll be happy with any of these.

G. T. Blackwell

I've seen too many reactors watch The Usual Suspects lately.

Mark Dahlen

How do you pick against any of these?! My vote is for you to watch them all!

Phil Stubblefield

Wow! 😲 What a poll! You can't go wrong with any of these films!

Konstantin Knopp

Sorry... you have to watch all the movies 😉. And if you watch red october then crimson tide should come right after

Alex Tan

Happy Thursday, Addie. All are great choices but my votes go to The Hunt for Red October (1990), The Fugitive (1993) and Crimson Tide (1995). See you tomorrow for your August Q&A.
