linconjames 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..

ryder_78 To me, nothing is perfect so it's a 9 instead of 10 rating. The story is creative and acting quite solid. David Andrews gave a pretty average (and wooden) performance while Melanie Griffith shone in the film. Pamela Gidley proved to be quite convincing as a robot with a pretty face though she had limited screen time by appearing at the beginning and end of the movie.This movie is a classic. It is a little weird to read the tag line of the movie "In the year 2017, a good woman is hard to find. A Cherry 2000 is even harder". Ironically it's now 2017 as the movie was set 30 years ago in 1987. The director had the vision of men having difficulty of finding a good woman in the future which is the current moment, after 30 years! Fortunately the vision did not quite materialise as people can still find true love at this time and age. On top of that, we do not have an advanced robot like Cherry 2000 that looks and behaves (almost) exactly like a human. All we have in reality are sex dolls with limited functions and features at the moment. It would be interesting to see if a Cherry 2000 prototype will be successfully developed in say 20 years from now, that is 2037.

Claudio Carvalho In 2017, Sam Treadwell (David Andrews) is in love with his android Cherry 2000 (Pamela Gidley). When he accidentally damages her, he unsuccessfully try to find another Cherry 2000 to input her chip with basic memories. He travels to the border of the Zone 7 to hire the tracker Six Fingered Jake (Ben Johnson) to get another one from the dangerous cemetery of robot controlled by the insane criminal Lester (Tim Thomerson). However he learns that Jake is dead and he accepts the offer of the sexy tracker E. Johnson (Melanie Griffith). Along their journey, Sam discovers that a perfect woman is not a robot."Cherry 2000" is a weird and entertaining sci-fi with a funny story and lots of action. Pamela Gidley is a beautiful woman and is hilarious in the role of a robot programmed to please men. But how could Sam Treadwell resist to E. Johnson, performed by thirty years old Melanie Griffith, one of the most beautiful women of the planet? My vote is seven.Title (Brazil): "Cherry 2000"

axlrhodes Filmed in 1985, but shelved and not released on VHS until 1987, perhaps the most telling thing about Cherry 2000, is that it's producer, Edward R. Pressman, reportedly confessed that the films distributors, Orion Pictures, were "stumped" by the films confusion of genres, which led to the long delay in it's initial release.Seeing it for the first time, it's easy to see why it was such a marketing headache. For starters, it isn't really any good, however, in being a crazy mish-mash of bits of everything, and having the good sense to never take itself too seriously, it's hard to feel annoyed with it.The film is set in the year 2020. Mankind has progressed to the extent that it's now possible to own a fully functional, supermodel, stay at home girlfriend (Cherry) who knows exactly how to treat her man – we never see male model counterparts. In the first scene, our lead character, Sam Tredwell, ( David Andrews) has a soapy, after dinner mishap with his own Cherry 2000 doll, which kick-starts the plot of him having to travel the wastelands of 'Zone 7′, to find another one. Yes folks, it's as ridiculous as it sounds. Co-starring with Andrews is a jaunty looking Melanie Griffith, who seems to be playing a female 'Rambo', running and gunning her way through her scenes. Surprisingly, some of the stunt work, locations and set pieces are genuinely quite stunning, which makes it all the more a shame that the end result is such an elaborate mess.Cherry 2000 is like Mad Max, but madder. It doesn't really seem to know what it wants to be, and ends up being not much of anything. That said, there is fun to be salvaged amongst it's bonkers sense of humour, and the people in it seem to be having a good time. A guilty pleasure for some, perhaps.
