United States | Chicago Sun-Times | "Excruciatingly boring (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)" | NEG |
United States | New York Daily News | "Open and simple in its visual style (...) The atmosphere is calm, yet the film is mysteriously, powerfully affirmative." | POS |
United States | Austin Chronicle | "Slow and monotonous, the film moves at a deliberate pace and culminates in a meta-fictional moment that is either infuriatingly trite or enigmatic" | NEU |
United States | SFGATE | "Kiarostami is in no rush, but the respect and love he shows for his characters, and the confidence and simplicity of his technique, make Taste of Cherry a satisfying experience" | POS |
United States | The Washington Post | "Taste of Cherry evokes sadness without being sentimental, has universal resonance without sacrificing personal immediacy, and generates real drama without resorting to contrivance." | POS |
