Leave your thoughts about Chuck & Buck.
| Boston GlobeJay CarrIt's all we ask of a film but almost never get, as it first makes us squirm, then makes us cheer. |
| New York Magazine/VulturePeter RainerThis odd, uneven movie, with its trumped-up ending that makes zero emotional sense given what came before, is perplexing in the extreme. |
| Rolling StonePeter TraversPossibly the most daring and honest drama about sexuality I've ever seen. |
| Houston ChronicleLouis B. ParksAll the people of Chuck & Buck feel very human. |
| TheMovieReport.comMichael DequinaCreepy, funny, yet surprisingly affecting, Miguel Arteta's darkly comic drama pulls off a remarkable balancing act. |
| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzIt is about someone who is desperate to find someone to love him, more than it is about homosexuality. |
| rec.arts.movies.reviewsLaura CliffordIt's an unusual film and, once you get past the creepy factor early on, an intelligently satisfying one. |
| SlateDavid EdelsteinMight be the most perversely agreeable stalker picture ever made. |
| UK CriticIan Waldron-MantganiChuck & Buck is terrific up until its last act, when it takes such a wrong turn that I almost want to write two separate reviews. |
| Entertainment WeeklyOwen GleibermanThe most resonant and haunting movie I've seen this year. |
