Unlike other movies about unpleasant characters, "In the Company of Men," for example, Chuck & Buck doesn't have that sharp observational edge.
75
Chuck and Buck: A fungus among us.
88
You wouldn't think the darn thing would have such lingering power.
75
An oddity, but a remarkably intriguing and original one, and in Buck ... it also has the most unforgettable movie character of the year.
70
Despite Arteta's best efforts, I eventually stopped caring about their bond because Chuck's character is conceived as such a two-dimensional yuppie.
63
Almost too creepy to be poignant, and generally funny only in an uncomfortable, squirm-in-your seat way.
83
For a picture about a stalker, Chuck and Buck is rather sweet, funny and winning.
100
One of the year's best and most provocative films.
75
Comes on like an "After School Special'' psychodrama that's been taken off its medication.
30
Crude and inept.
63
Its premise is so promising that you long for more than Arteta's low-key approach can deliver.
