Movie Reviews

Christian Science Monitor - 10/10 by Peter RainerPlenty of terrible movies know how to work your tear ducts. Here's a weepie that, in Pfeiffer's performance, touches you on the highest levels.
Daily Mail (UK) - 10/10 by Christopher TookeyCheri radiates quality in every department, and - whether it's popular or not - this splendid achievement establishes him as one of Britain's very best film producers.
San Francisco Chronicle - 10/10 by Mick LaSalleNow that she's past 50, can we all stop holding Michelle Pfeiffer's looks against her and just admit that she's a great actress?
Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 9/10 by Dennis SchwartzA limp whore's tale set in the turn of the 20th-century in Paris.
Milwaukee Journal Sentinel - 9/10 by Steve RamosLively, clever and beautiful in all ways, from its diverse cast to its period Parisian setting, Chéri is a worthy adaptation of the 1920 novel by French novelist Colette.
Kaplan vs. Kaplan - 9/10 by Jeanne KaplanI had to drag David kicking and screaming to see this film. What he doesn't understand is that I find films such as "Cheri" lush and sumptuous.
Chicago Sun-Times - 9/10 by Roger EbertThe success of Stephen Frears’ film Chéri begins with its casting. Michelle Pfeiffer, as Lea de Lonval, is still a great beauty.
New York Times - 9/10 by Manohla DargisThere'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.
Detroit News - 9/10 by Tom LongThere just isn't enough beneath the surface in Cheri to justify all the talent on hand.
Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN) - 9/10 by John BeifussThe camera's gaze is so steady in the lengthy final shot that we can't help but notice the imperfections in even Pfeiffer's famously lovely aspect, especially when the only noise we hear on the soundtrack is the muffled but ruthless ticking of a clock.
