Break the Cutie: Downplayed with Cherry but played straight with Emily who gets pulled into his spiral of addiction and becomes an addict herself.

comment
Shell-Shocked Veteran: The film not only portrays how experiences of war can affect a veteran and their loved ones, but it also shows how incompetently medical services can be with helping them, making things even worse. Cherry at one point tries to go to a doctor at the request of Emily in order to find an alternative to Oxy to deal with his trauma. The doctor still recommends Oxy.

comment
Adaptational Nice Guy: Cherry and Emily are far messier, worse people in the novel than the film, where they're turned into a sweet but troubled couple. Their cruelty and blowout fights are massively downplayed. Also, Emily's drug abuse is shown to be caused by Cherry;s influence, rather than something they both partook in when they met.

Addled Addict: Because of his trauma from the war, Cherry resorts to numerous opioids (including Oxycodone) to cope. Eventually, Emily becomes an addict too and they both become full-blown heroin addicts in debt to a man only known as Black.

Fan Disservice: The infamous shot of the interior of the protagonist's rectum, from inside the rectum. That's way more of Tom Holland than anyone wanted to see.

Armies Are Evil
 Cherry (2021) / int_c9aea8c8
comment
Armies Are Evil: The movie does not shy away from the predatory nature of the army in terms of how they recruit directionless or downtrodden youngsters. It’s made very clear that Cherry does not belong in the army and joined solely on an emotional whim that is then exploited by recruiters. They then use these wayward youths up and then spit them out shells of their former selves with no means of properly coping with their traumas.

No Name Given: The narrator's name is not revealed he’s referred to as the titular Cherry, by the casting. Cherry and Emily’s drug dealer is only known as Pills and Coke.
