The Cherry Orchard [Region 2] Reviews: Good Actors, Bad Movie  2008-10-25 - Alan Bates and Charlotte Rampling are wonderful actors, and Chekhov is a great writer and The Cherry Orchard is one of his best plays, but this is a BAD movie. I have seen one very good theater production of The Cherry Orchard in English, so it can be done. This movie, though, is not it. If you love Chekhov, don't see it. If you don't know Chekhov, don't see it.
What a disappointment  2008-02-05 - I remember seeing this film a couple of years ago at a Greek Film Festival.
With such a great cast I expected something special.
Have you ever been to see a film and after seeing it, thought to yourself that there was something really wrong with the film but you couldn't put your finger on it? Well, that's what I feel about this movie. The only saving grace was the splendid cinematography.
There was something seriously wrong with the performances. Somehow the director failed to get great performances from his actors.
It is one of the few films that I was tempted to leave before it finished.
"The Cherry Bomb" as we used to say.  2007-04-18 - Correct me if I'm wrong (and please do) but didn't Tovarich Chekov himself say this play was a comedy bordering on farce? Can someone please recommend where to find such a version !!?

The Cherry Orchard  2007-02-11 - I enjoyed the DVD, as I have never seen The Cherry Orchard before. I only wish that Gerard Butler would have had a bigger role. As a big fan of Gerard Butler I have seen almost all his movies more than once and will most likely watch the Cherry Orchard again.
Awesome Movie  2005-09-29 - I bought this movie just because Gerard Butler is in the cast but I must say that the whole story is great! It's a different type of movie and it's based in an old bookclassic, which makes it even better. The cast is great, besides the hunky Gerard Butler. Worth seeing.
