Chloe and Theo is a unique and inspiring film that shows how unlikely friendships can change the world! Caring and helping with the environment is very crucial and this film brilliantly portrays this message. A homeless female, Chloe and an Inuit named Theo build a relationship after getting a life changing message in order to save the world. Despite being total opposites and having a difficult, yet hilarious adventure, both Chloe and Theo create an unbreakable bond in order to finish the mission successfully. Chloe (Dakota Johnson) is my favorite character in this film. Dakota Johnson is an all-around, well-rounded actress and her acting brings so much to the complex character of Chloe. There is so much character development with Chloe; we see how she grows and matures as a person. Her character is someone that many people will relate to. The Inuit, Theo (Theo Ikummaq) essentially plays himself and captures his own cultural heritage with what seems like little to no acting. His portrayal Theo makes this film heartfelt and more personal for audiences. Chloe portrays a homeless woman and her clothing shows us exactly what her circumstances are. Theo's clothing, to the best of my knowledge, does justice to the Inuit culture by using traditional attire. The music and score, from start to finish, is incredible! Every funny scene, serious scene or even dialogue rich scene is enhanced with the background music. My favorite scenes of the film are those with educational aspects. While much of the film is based on fictional storylines, there are many cultural and environmental aspects that I learned by watching this film -- an experience you don't have often with movies. The message of this film is to be open minded to different people and possibilities. If Chloe had rejected the opportunity to help Theo carry out the message to save the environment, then she would not have been able to be a hero or make a difference. Despite their differences, they looked past this and decided to see the bigger picture – a lesson I encourage all to learn from. I give Chloe and Theo 5 out 5 stars and recommend it for ages 10 to 18, plus adults. Chloe and Theo releases just in time for Earth Day, April 22, 2022 on Digital and DVD. Don't miss it!

An amazing story for the family. The message is vital. We are all either part of the Earth's problems or solutions. Watch it. Theo is adorable

Yes, a bit quirky and you might stop watching before it ends, because of it. But worth sticking with, as it ties the message of how we need to be with each other that is very much related to how we need to be with the planet before it is all too late. In 2015 we had more of a chance to do something . . . kind of sad that we have done so little since. Interesting story to read about how Branson and Ord and Theo all came together. Would love to know more about how Sorvino and Johnson came into the picture as well. Liked the background music a lot.

Theo's message was presented in a most mysterious and captivating way. By far the most important message of our age. Thanks for this movie and message. If only they would actually listen. Murdered by some idiot driven by consumerism.

Chloe & Theo is a mess of a message movie, simplistic, sappy, silly.

1970 called and it wants its claim on whimsical, anti-establishment, hippy-dippy movies back.

There's a line between a narrative that's deliberately simple and one that's painfully childish, and it's not all that fine. But it's one "Chloe & Theo" crosses repeatedly.

It’s a sweet and charming tale that is a “spoonful of sugar” on climate change and about the little things we can do to make the world a better place.

Chloe and Theo is about the difference a Bruce Lee loving westerner has on the life of a mild-mannered, peaceful Inuit. It most certainly should have been the other way round.
