In the end, it becomes the cinematic equivalent of one of the songs Tunney adores: enjoyable enough while it lasts, but so thin that its ingratiating charms seem as much a source of frustration as pleasure.
Keith Phipps, AV Club

Cherish is one of those movies in which the soundtrack is better than the movie itself.

Good performances and quirky humor make this slick if less than fully satisfying mix of romantic comedy and mystery an easy sit.
Dennis Harvey, Variety

The best way to enjoy Finn Taylor's Cherish -- often the only way -- is to accept this odd little comic drama for what it is, a shamelessly contrived showcase for Robin Tunney.
