Resumen
Reviewers say 'The Life of Chuck' is praised for its deep, thought-provoking themes about life, death, and human connection. The film's unique reverse chronological structure and its exploration of existential questions are frequently highlighted. Reviewers commend the performances, particularly those of Tom Hiddleston, Mark Hamill, and the young actors portraying Chuck at different ages. The dance sequences and the film's emotional impact are often noted as standout elements. However, some reviewers find the film's pacing and structure uneven, with certain parts feeling less impactful than others. The film's message about living life to the fullest and cherishing moments is widely appreciated, though some feel it could be conveyed with less sentimentality. Overall, 'The Life of Chuck' is seen as a heartfelt, if occasionally flawed, exploration of life's meaning and the importance of human connections.

This is a beautiful film. The pacing was perfect, with likeable characters. It doesn't spoil itself or its message, but rather gives you three acts leaving you pondering how everything weaves together.
I have pondered in my life why certain moments are impactful and have helped form me into the individual I am today. It feels like utter randomness, but that's the point isn't it. What matters to me...what gives me substance...is what makes me the unique person I am. It's the good, the bad, the meager, all of it that comes together to form our universe and reality as we know it. So I'll leave you with this: Be kind to yourself and others. Hug your loved ones, forgive those you can forgive, and when your expiration date comes accept and trust that your life was exactly as it was meant to be.

There is a concept here about the truth: we live, and then we die, and because I know it's a movie based on a story by Stevn King it has me asking the question: which am I more afrriad of?
I know the ambiguous trailer did not seem like anything you would expect from a Steven King movie, but what I got is exactly why this dude is The Master of Horror.
Maybe I am reading too much into a film, possibly influenced far greater by Mike Flanagan's filmmaking, yet the emotion I felt for this movie was deep.
That's the brilliance of this movie, I felt something at the end, and it made me think, and it was beautiful for that.

It honestly boggles my mind how I kept reading about how this movie was bombing at the box office, when it clearly was very poorly marketed. It was two weeks after its "wide" release before it finally showed up to our local art house/second run movie theater. The chain multiplexes gave it a complete miss.
Mike Flanagan is a very talented screenwriter and director and this was possibly Stephen King's most sentimental work. And there's two INCREDIBLE dance scenes. The result is completely human, uplifting film.
There is some anxiety inducing story in the start of the film, but it is not a horror film by any measure. King is also very good with general fiction too, after all.
This movie will stick with you for awhile. Hours after my viewing, I was still thinking about it (and tearing up.)

Even though it's a book adaptation, it's a film that really makes you appreciate film. It's thought provoking and requires you to put the plot together for yourself. There's so many small details from clocks, to people in the background. There are some mystical elements about it, but at the end of the day it's pretty simple, Chucks life wasn't extreme or grand, but the universe he goes on to create, the one that lives inside of him is immense, and powerful. The message of how astounding one life can be, just go out and live, because your time will eventually come, and you'll have wished you followed your true passions. 10/10, I definitely recommend. Especially to real film watchers.
I went into The Life of Chuck knowing nothing about it other than it being a Stephen King novella.
I assumed the movie was going to be horror, and I was so wrong, in the best way. Mike Flanagan was a director I was unfamiliar with as well - so my expectations were really empty.
That being said - The Life of Chuck took the beats of what makes a great horror film - fleshed out and relatable characters with a unique and mysterious situation to put them in.
I want to leave my critique relatively vague as I believe the hook of the film works best going in without knowing much.
I left the film feeling a mix of joy and melancholy and appreciated the artistry that brought me there.
I do recommend.
