Folio Swami on Brand New Cherry Flavor

4/10 · Aug 16, 2021

It’s striking how much this film seems to revolve around privilege. The protagonist exists as someone removed from everyday realities; she claims financial limitations yet somehow secures opportunities unavailable to others. It feels like a real-life version of that saying, "money for nothing and chicks for free." Essentially, the central figure receives fame and fortune without apparent effort. That initial contract seemed promising, but then there’s this moment—a hand placed on her knee with an ambiguous gesture. Is it encouragement or something else? Clearly driven by a desire for more, she moves from a modest workspace to a lavish home. It all just seems logical within the context of the narrative. I recall a time when I watched horror movies purely for the adrenaline rush. Now, I’m looking for substance beyond the predictable trope of teenagers ignoring warnings and heading toward danger. The plot does improve somewhat as it progresses, but the protagonist lacks any discernible motivation—just a spoiled character repeatedly making bad choices. And ultimately, the conclusion felt abrupt and unsatisfying; like a sudden, anticlimactic blowout.
