Reception

The review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reported a 43% approval rating based on 28 critic reviews. The website's critics consensus reads, "There's the seed of a strong series in Apples Never Fall thanks to its outstanding cast and intriguing hook, but those promising elements can't quite polish up a rote story."[13] Metacritic assigned a score of 54 out of 100 based on 21 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews".[14]
