Welcome to our first-time watching as we react to Free Guy (2021). This incredibly funny movie starring Ryan Reynolds was filled with surprises and references!

Directed by Shawn Levy, "Free Guy" (2021) follows Guy, a bank teller who discovers he's actually a non-playable character (NPC) in a chaotic open-world video game. The film has a cool premise that kind of reminded us of "The Matrix" movie. Ryan Reynolds brings his comedic genius into it and gives it his all.

The film feels like a love letter to not only gaming and more specifically indie developers but also a love letter to huge IP's like Marvel's Avengers, Star Wars etc. We got some solid performances here with the cast including Ryan Reynolds, Jodie Comer, and Taika Waititi.

This was such a great time and we truly went nuts with how many references they managed to squeeze in! Sit back and relax and join us as we experience "Free Guy" for the first time!

  • Chris Evans was nearby when Free Guy was being shot. Ryan just randomly asked him for a cameo and he agreed and we all got that wonderful scene.
  • Little fun fact: the guy handing info to Molotov Girl is Hugh Jackman and the bank robber is Dwayne Johnson. Ryan got so many little cameos for this.
  • "He punches so hard and yet his hands are so soft" Why does that crack me up so much?
  • @fredskull1618
    I’m still not convinced this movie wasn’t an ayahuasca dream Wade Wilson had.
  • @o0pinkdino0o
    Such a pleasant surprise this film. The Chris Evans cameo killed me.
  • @sample.text.
    You guys being gamers and part of the whole culture adds so much more to this video. I love it.
  • The Adam Project is another really good one. The kid they got for the movie is just...the best.
  • I hate to admit it, but the Dude is actually me interacting with humans 😂😂😂
  • @TodPreece-xo9qj
    I've watched this movie several times- Ryan Reynolds knows how to bring his A game and he doesn't disappoint! I loved all the references & pacing of this movie. Absolutely cannot wait for Deadpool & Wolverine!

    In a interview, Ryan said they were all filming in Canada and he heard that Chris Evans was in town. So called Chris and asked if he could do a cameo and he agreed. Ryan rounded up a small filming crew, went to Evans' location and had the shot in 10 minutes.
  • @duchoang6589
    Directors: so how many references we want in this movie? Ryan: yes
  • Chris Evans charged only a cup of coffee for his little cameo in the movie... I loved this movie so much and it is so much relatable
  • @drulipabs
    I can’t believe that they got the rock and Hugh Jackman to be cameo in this film
  • @theeddytor3490
    5:15 people who doesn't get this joke, it looks dark but it's a programmer joke. so every code of line (mostly for AAA games) there is a fail safe. more like if something glitches or goes off script kind of thing, they reset, so how do you reset an NPC? the technical answer is long but short answer is you literally clean wipe the code. which is why GUY switch back to getting coffee. there are so many inside jokes about programmers in this movie. some are like ester eggs
  • @nzoocage4084
    There is another movie directed by Shawn Levy and starring Ryan Reynolds called The Adam Project after this one and before Deadpool and Wolverine, it’s a time travel movie
  • @RoGueNavy
    "There's not a button for that!" "Oh, he found the button." So much double entendre.
  • The only thing that could've made Chris Evans' cameo even better is if they had Robert Downey Jr next to him saying "Language!"
  • As a proud Stranger Things fan, you can imagine how happy I was to see Steve Harrington in this flick.
  • @johnbowersox738
    Fun fact: The 2 girls doing the bank robbery where Guy get's his glasses are Taika Waititi's daughters.
