Sandi Rankaduwa BuzzFeed News Cha Cha Real Smooth made me feel so many things, not least of which is eagerness to see what Raiff might come up with next. Fingers crossed, the party's just getting started. Jul 25, 2022 Full Review Shannon Keating BuzzFeed News A loving, tender-hearted, and very funny portrait. Jun 23, 2022 Full Review Danny Leigh Financial Times Raiff is good at marking out how maddening adult compromises can look at 22. It helps too that for all his occasional camera-hogging, he makes room for fine performances from co-stars. Rated: 3/5 Jun 23, 2022 Full Review Ally Ham The Review Geek Apart from some misplaced hero worship... Cha Cha Real Smooth is a sweet narrative about embracing the “good-for-you” things in life. Rated: 8/10 Jul 11, 2024 Full Review Zach Youngs InSession Film There is so much to write and to gush about Cha Cha Real Smooth. It’s a film that breaks rules and makes us reflect on who we are. Rated: A Jul 3, 2024 Full Review Gautam Sunder The Hindu Cha Cha... remains an absolute, if indulgent, breakthrough delight at its best. Sep 13, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews

Travis This movie is pure and heartwarming, & it conveyed the perfect amount of tension and what differs adult and young adult.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/27/22 Full Review Sima Recin vi Cha Cha Real Smooth y ya se convirti en una de mis pelculas favoritas. Te abraza, te tira, te levanta y te deja el corazn con una sensacin rara, mezcla de tristeza y esperanza. Vanla por favor. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/25/22 Full Review Nikki There are films that, when you are watching them, you get a feeling that you don't want it to end — this is one of those films. At least for me. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/25/22 Full Review Claudio Ugh. Why did I see this in theaters? Sundance has really gone downhill. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 07/24/22 Full Review Danny The perfect movie for this Friday afternoon. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/22/22 Full Review Read all reviews
