So I've seen a few of them, I have this strange thing for LotR reaction vids for some reason. And Schindler's List reactions too, but let's not get into that. Anyways though, this is the best.

A lot of them are faked imo, most of the others know a little bit going in. And they're exaggerating for the camera.

Now I don't know where these guys came from, but their reactions are genuine and enjoyable. It's also fun to see how the appreciation of the film crosses cultures, they pick out and focus on different things than westerners would. And they're not completely ignorant of conventions or anything, India is the home of Bollywood, these folks understand films. They've never seen this one though...
