Gyllenhaal shines in gritty, haunting drug drama.

Common Sense Media
As an actress, Ms. Gyllenhaal seems to steer clear of any parts that seek to exploit an audience's weakness for conventionally happy endings. Her films are therefore always worth seeing.
Observer
The wonder of Sherrybaby is that we can admire Sherry's exuberance and evident love of life -- and the extraordinary actress who portrays her -- without really being sure where she's going.

Rating: C+ --
The film itself is a collection of emotional highs and mostly lows for Gyllenhaal, who elevates it all far above the slim story.
Denver Rocky Mountain News
Rating: 3.5/4 --
Gyllenhaal presents us with an indelible character study that will be seared into our minds for a long time to come.

Chicago Sun-Times
Rating: 3/4 --
Like its hyped-up heroine, Sherrybaby, based on a true story, explodes with manic energy that keeps you riveted through parts that might otherwise be difficult to watch.

San Francisco Chronicle
Rating: 2.5/4 --
...generally manages to overcome its almost egregiously familiar sensibilities to become an entertaining (yet hopelessly uneven) piece of work.

Description by OLDIES.com:
Sherrybaby follows Sherry Swanson, (Maggie Gyllenhaal) who has just been released from prison after three years. Dressed in her inappropriate uniform of a halter top and oh-so-high platform heels, she goes to her brother's house to visit her five year-old daughter, Lexie (Ryan Simpkins). Sherry is determined to be a mother to her child, but without a home, job, or any other form of stability, she becomes frustrated and envious of her brother and sister-in-laws roles in Lexie's life. Sherry will stop at nothing to get her daughter back, even if it means integrating into society again.
