Cherry

I'm impressed by it and fascinated by it...I say you should watch it, for seeing what these creatives are giving us, they're doing something different...

What an absolute mess of superficially explored themes about addiction and America.

Not even the emotional depth or compassion Tom Holland imbues his unnamed character can save Cherry. Only a ruthless editor that would've been willing to cut 60 minutes out of it could have.

Holland flings himself into the role, and sweats desperation every second. But the Russos undermine him at every turn...

Not perfect by any means, with many things wrong with it, but Tom Holland's performance pulls you through it, with the genre changing in each different section of his life.

Rather than generating excitement, the insistence on momentum at all costs makes the film resemble an endless series of TV commercials strung together.

Cherry is the latest example of why some books aren't adaptable for the big screen.


Cherry is an indisputable mess, but it hangs on due to a captivating first half, a career-best performance from Tom Holland, and an overall well-shot film.

Cherry is a commendable film, but certainly not without weaknesses. It is limited by its general air of pessimism and resignation.

A scattershot and overwritten substance abuse drama.
