What to Know

Critics Consensus

Showing lots of skin but never as narratively daring. Cherry skimps on substance all around.

When a guilty perv is all a film has to offer by way of a protagonist then it's probably in the best interests of us all if it doesn't exist. Go to Full Review

So much of About Cherry is meant to titillate and dramatize but never humanize. Go to Full Review
J. R. Jones Chicago Reader 10/04/2012
Dramas about the porn industry range from expressions of puritanical rage to celebrations of open sexuality; this one manages to avoid both extremes, as well as anything else that might make it worth watching. Go to Full Review

Possesses some very fine moments complete with great performances, particularly from Hinshaw. Go to Full Review

C-
Rather shockingly lacking in dynamic plotting, the film descends into mystifying incomprehensibility in its final reels, showing a lack of understanding of basic human motivations. Go to Full Review

thiago s @Thiagostone Jun 22 Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom, filme que fala sobre porno, mas não mostra cenas verdadeiras de porno, como mostras as partes íntimas do homem e da mulher, e a parte da penetração. See more Lycanian V Jan 1 only offer a lot of nude scene but no value presented in this movie. Lack of value, unelaborated value about "falling into porn industry" story is the worst part. Ridiculous ending See more Discover G 05/26/2023 Not a very deep or eye-opening movie. Lots of skin shown but not much else See more 02/16/2022 Trama non particolarmente originale ma una serie di personaggi abbastanza interessanti da sopperire alla prevedibilità del film. Gli aspetti più tecnici del mondo del "cinema hard" e il continuo avvicinamento ad esso sono sicuramente le parti meglio riuscite. Decisamente toppato il finale che trova una soluzione sbrigativa e non soddisfacente; lasciando incredibilmente in sospeso personaggi e questioni che avevano una buona importanza nella sceneggiatura. See more KARL O @GalwayK 01/14/2022 The one star is for the nudity. What a meandering pointless mess. See more 09/19/2021 Just your average B movie without showing actual porn scenes.
