Good start, but then it gets ruined

Best movie ever!

Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

This is a weird off-beat film worth a watch. Don Johnson and Melanie Grifith are great opposite each other as a human- robot couple. Grifith shines as the role asks for her innocent cat like sensitivity to shine. This along with Steve De Jarnett's Miracle Mile are two of the most underrated 80s films. The reason these kinds of films have become cult are the same reason retro-futuristic cars have become so popular- nostalgia tinged with a yearning for a better future which was the vision.

Kinda corny. It could be part 2 of Blade Runner 2049........lol

Sure it's all too obviously influenced by "Mad Max" and "The Road Warrior", but it's still consistently engaging entertainment for cult film enthusiasts. Credit has to go to production designer John Jay Moore and cinematographer Jacques Haitkin for giving it just the right slightly futuristic look, and it's got some gorgeous rural vistas to take in. It's a little episodic, but it's also got some energy, and some nifty moments.Melanie Griffith offers a delightful performance as female "tracker" E. Johnson (the E stands for Edith), hired by lonely man Sam Treadwell (a fairly stiff David Andrews) to take him to a dangerous area where he can find a replacement for his robot wife Cherry (Pamela Gidley). On their journey they run into colourful characters played by such wonderful acting veterans as Ben Johnson, who's endearing as Six Fingered Jake, and Harry Carey Jr., as Snappy Tom.You know you'll be in for a good time when you look over that supporting cast: Marshall Bell, Laurence Fishburne, Michael C. Gwynne, Brion James, Jack Thibeau, and Robert Z'Dar. The always welcome Tim Thomerson has a particularly amusing role as an unconventional desert dwelling despot, whose followers have it in for people such as Edith. Overall the movie isn't overly flashy, but it's pretty exciting at times, especially the entire sequence with the crane and the water pipe. The soaring score composed by Basil Poledouris ("Conan the Barbarian", "RoboCop", etc.) is fine accompaniment.Although Thomerson as Lester shows himself to be a serious psycho, this never gets too, too unpleasant, with director Steve De Jarnatt keeping the action moving and having fun with the offbeat little details provided by screenwriter Michael Almereyda (story credit goes to executive producer Lloyd Fonvielle). "Cherry 2000" does know how to send you away with a smile on your face. It may have gotten a limited release in theatres in the 1980s, but 26 years later it proves enjoyable enough to deserve a rediscovery.Seven out of 10.

Plot: Guy falls in love with a one-dimensional sex robot. Guy loses sex robot. Guy hires a woman to help him find sex robot. Guy falls in love with woman and realises that multi-dimensional women, warts and all, are better than one-dimensional sex fantasies.Interesting: Film explodes female archetypes. Film's target audience is man, but film allows woman to perform all tasks better than man. Man loses shoe, cries for help, depends on woman for rescue etc. Woman, free from male chains, teaches man to love her liberation. Better to interact with a woman who has brains and a heart instead of a fantasy image with a microchip.Reality: Man=lazy, Sex robot=impractical, Porn=global 6/10 – Mildly interesting rift on "Weird Science". Surprisingly, the film makes quite a few references to Tarkovsky's "Stalker".
