Cherry 2000 is part cyberpunk, part post-apocalyptic, part comedy, part action, part drama, part romance and just a dash of 80s cheese! (A very strange blend of worlds that made studio ORION very confused about what to do with the resulting film they made, resulting in the premiere being on VHS instead of in-cinema!) I won't give away anything, just add that if you like sci-fi, especially the flavour of playfully cheesy 80s sci-fi, you'll at the least like this, at the most LOVE this!
