Cheri | Ratings & Reviews

"Like a passable bottle of champagne, Cheri fizzes and slides down quite easily but lacks real body and doesn't really hit the spot."

VarietyVariety

"This reunion of Dangerous Liaisons talent is a lighter, less demanding confection than its blistering predecessor. Languid delights come in the shape of Pfeiffer, Bates and some extraordinary hats, but the title character is a wash-out."

Total FilmTotal Film

"There's something poignant about the image of this actress (Pfeiffer) sitting in a pool of sunlight without a smile or trace of visible makeup. But she's trying to reach a character that her director seems intent to keep from her grasp."

The New York TimesThe New York Times

"The success of Stephen Frears’ film Chéri begins with its casting. Michelle Pfeiffer, as Lea de Lonval, is still a great beauty."

Roger EbertRoger Ebert

"Quite how the director of My Beautiful Laundrette, The Hi-Lo Country and High Fidelity can turn in such turgid nonsense is odd."

Otago Daily TimesOtago Daily Times

"Witty, stylish and lighthearted, yet an emotionally aloof romantic drama."

New Zealand HeraldNew Zealand Herald

"Michelle Pfeiffer is back, and her reappearance in Cheri, her best role in quite some time, underlines not only how much she's been missed but also how much the world of film has lost by her absence."

Los Angeles TimesLos Angeles Times

"Actors blossom under Frears' direction. There is no false moment or off-key note in this movie."

Hollywood ReporterHollywood Reporter

"This glimpse into a decadent era has its charms, but they’re mostly visual. While Pfeiffer and Friend perform well, the script is tonally confused and lacks edge."
