Moviegoers are saying
This 2026 mall-set film divides audiences between those enchanted by its nostalgic teen atmosphere and Victoria Pedretti's magnetic performance, and those left wanting more substance behind the glamorous facade. Critics describe it as 'The Craft but about girls who hashtag everything #girlhood,' with reviewers either embracing its campy, niche appeal or feeling misled by expectations of deeper LGBTQ+ representation.

the mall as a symbol of glamour and escapism really speaks to me. maybe it’s because i’m a brit: growing up my local mall was really NOT it, it was just a shopping center cosplaying as a mall but it wasn’t nearly american enough to make you feel like you were living some…

this was so fun+funny and im definitely biased, we lesbians dont get fed much especially mainstream. usually if u wanna watch gay rep u have to do so from home. that being said this is is still not good gay rep. cmon hollywoooddd. whys the gayest one also the most insane? 🤨
cassie. lovedForbidden FruitsLili Reinhart put her soul in that role. The scene at the fountain was exhilarating
Michael Callanan likedForbidden FruitsMean Girls x The Craft. so camp
- Ant Hardy is "meh" onForbidden Fruits
Forbidden Fruits has an interesting concept with a semi-decent way of putting it all together. The cast did great, but the story itself was lacking in a lot of departments. It had its fun moments, but the film itself is way more of a slow burn than is needed.

Nick Milano dislikedForbidden FruitsJeez. The (majority) hot cast did not save this movie. I feel like the script had to be written by a middle school girl. So boring and dumb man 😭 but because of how dumb it was made it *slightly* entertaining but definitely not even a meh. plus Lili Lola and Victoria are a plus
- ItssKillie likedForbidden Fruits
I wouldn’t expect anything less coming from a comedic horror film haha. Can someone please give Lili her flowers, she played an incredible mean girl (all I could think about was how Cheryl coded she was, iykyk) Also Victoria playing such an unserious role threw me off but she

The film is a witchy mall comedy that mostly keeps you under its spell.
Ross McIndoe
Slant Magazine
Beyond some decent performances that aren’t done justice by this script, and some fairly wild leaps into horror, Forbidden Fruits isn’t ripe, it’s just rotten.
Ross Bonaime
Collider
If you don’t worry about the story and just immerse yourself in the gags, Alloway’s film is a must-watch for the Venn diagram overlap between Shudder subscribers and the slumber party crowd.
