FORREEL ON THE FILM
THE LIFE OF CHUCK
“No movie from 2024 has made my heart feel as full as The Life of Chuck did, and I doubt another will.”
“If there’s any film you should simply let unfold before your eyes instead of actively trying to figure it out, it’s this one.”
“I think Tom Hiddleston may have the scene of the year in ‘The Life Of Chuck’”

“...amongst all of the absurdity, watching it play out is almost as interesting as watching paint dry... ”
