Don’t let anyone tell you the Hershey trailer isn’t real – they might claim it’s a hallucination or a forgotten idea. They’ll say it’s too ridiculous to be true, but it is real, and it looks exactly like something made on a tiny budget with minimal effort. The Hershey movie tells the story of Milton Hershey, the man who perfected milk chocolate (even if it sometimes tasted unpleasant) and left behind a lasting legacy through his school, Hersheypark, and the frequent mispronunciation of “Reese’s Pieces.”
The unusual feeling you get from the trailer makes sense when you see it’s from Angel Studios. This Utah-based company has found success with movies that appeal to conservative audiences, like the 2023 film The Sound of Freedom and the upcoming animated movie David. Their new film, Hershey, fits right in. The trailer feels like a version of Wonka that’s been adjusted to emphasize certain values. Instead of a colorful, magical character, it presents a story about hard work, traditional American values, and self-reliance, all with a muted color scheme. What’s truly striking about the trailer is the dialogue, which sounds increasingly artificial, almost as if it was written by AI. In fact, I’ve ranked every line to fully appreciate just how unusual it is.
14.
“This batch is …” “Perfect.”
Hershey (Finn Wittrock) and Kitty (Alexandra Daddario) are sharing a kiss in the kitchen when Hershey excitedly reveals he’s created the perfect chocolate. Their playful connection is immediately clear – they anticipate each other’s thoughts and share a lighthearted moment when Hershey playfully gets chocolate on Kitty’s face.
13.
“You’ve a keen eye, Mister …” “Hershey.”
Meet-cute. Unremarkable.
12.
“We will make our own milk chocolate, if I could just crack the recipe.”
Yeah, I’ve got a funny feeling this guy’s gonna crack the recipe.
11.
“You will not regret this, sir.” “Uh, I already do.”
Marvelslop-type exchange.
10.
“We could lose everything.” “Then I suppose we better make a lot of chocolate.”
Things are incredibly serious right now, but even this pales in comparison to the events in Wonka, where the main goal was to make chocolate and rescue a group of people trapped by the villainous Olivia Colman.
9.
“If you like the work, there’s no sweeter way to make a living.”
It’s a little higher on the list thanks to the delivery person – Richard Kind, who wears a perfectly fitting candy-striped suit! Honestly, he should always be dressed that way.
8.
“Candy is not just my business. Candy is my obsession.”
This line from the trailer feels very much like something ChatGPT would say, but it quickly and clearly explains what drives this character – a strange obsession with candy.
7.
“There’s only four of them.” “A small piece is all it takes.”
These words were likely said by Hershey while offering four chocolates to a group of serious, doubtful businesspeople. The phrase ‘small piece’ would be a catchy slogan.
6.
“Hershey! Sell to me, or I will run you out of business!”
About as blunt a villain line as villainous lines come. This wicked man is named Tobias Thornhill.
5.
“If my employer finds out I gave Milton Hershey more money, we’ll both be the laughingstock of this town!”
As someone who’s also trying to watch “Family Guy” on their phone, I really appreciate how carefully the trailer explains the basic plot as it happens.
4.
“Caramels are a fad. Milk-chocolate candies: That’s the future.”
The scene was okay, but it would have been stronger if a different character had said those lines to Hershey – something like, “Milk chocolate? That’s ridiculous! Caramels will always be the favorite!” Typical biographical movies need someone to predict failure, letting the audience feel smug knowing how things actually turned out and think, “Oh, he’s so wrong!” However, this scene doesn’t even manage to pull off that simple trick.
3.
“Here’s the thing, Milt: You’re a Hershey. When you follow your dream, you don’t let anyone get in your way.”
The line is particularly impactful because it’s spoken by the experienced Alan Ruck to the mischievous Hershey. But it’s even more meaningful because it echoes the recurring phrase from Avatar: Fire and Ash – “Sullys never quit.”
2.
“You keep chasing perfection, and maybe you should be chasing magic.”
Daddario delivers a line of cliché-ridden advice that’s immediately undermined when the characters discover a truly successful result. The brilliance of the line is its universality – it could fit seamlessly into almost any historical film, spoken by the wife of any famous figure, and still feel natural.
1.
“We can’t follow this chocolate fantasy forever.”
Oh, you fool. Your world is about to be rocked by these popular chocolates.
