GamerTab That was an excellent one.

Marketic It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.

JinRoz For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!

Roman Sampson One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

John austin It's the classic American social confrontation (borrowed from Animal house and others). Here it's the drapes versus the squares- rock & race music versus the conservative letterman sweater crowd. Cry Baby is a good introduction to John Waters who had to tone down his usual visual mayhem for a big time commercial release. If you're new to John Waters, try this one before you go on to something like Pink flamingos (although I will say that some people should probably never see Pink Flamingos.) It's a decent musical. Jim Intveld did all of Depp's vocals, and he's pretty well known in the hepcat rockabilly circles because of this. In fact, I do believe that this movie helped bring about the rockabilly resurgence that started in the '90s. A lot of good rockabilly & psychobilly bands started to appear after this movie came out.

pronetomovies I've gotta admit I was always skipping this film because it doesn't really sound like a great movie and stuff but when I gave it a try it wasn't bad as I thought it was although I feel awkward watching it like I can't help myself but hit the pause button for every single time and just recover myself from the awkwardness, I don't know Johnny Depp is kind of a bit wild and weird in this movie -in all of his movies this one is the weirdest if everyone thinks he is weird for portraying Edward Scissorhands, the mad hatter or jack sparrow then they probably have not seen this movie yet because it is the weirdest movies he had. It has a story though, I love the whole singing thing it's enticing and I always find myself singing "king cry-baby" every time and everywhere it's just so cool and can't help myself. Great film I thank myself for giving this one a try.

io_ale_pop98 I absolutely loved the actors and the idea of the movie. Everything was exaggerated and made to emphasize so many flawed different personalities. It is an illustration of what is wrong with people in general. it is the perfect combination of love comedy and drama and also a very original idea that is somehow defined by clichés.At first i was expecting a Friday-night movie like a romantic comedy of the 90's but really it is nothing like that in the best way possible.It is a little short for a movie but i don't think there was anything left out it is a very beautiful work. I definitely recommend it, a truly enjoyable movie that has a lot to teach.

dolly_the_ye-ye_bird First and foremost, this is a spot on parody of 1950's juvenile delinquent films. If you've never seen any of the old movies it's making fun of...or if you just don't get satire...then you may not like Cry Baby. But if you're fan of Rebel Without a Cause, The Wild One, The Deliquents, etc...well, then you simply shouldn't miss this film.Wade 'Cry Baby' Walker is the bad boy who is, in reality, not so bad. He has a soft side and is in love with the squeaky clean good girl, Allison. Their affair causes a rift between the two social factions of Baltimore, the rich kid 'Squares' and the cool kid 'Drapes'. The characters are way over the top, the dialog is oh so clichéd....and that's what makes it fantastic! The soundtrack doesn't hurt either! Just like Waters' Hairspray, the soundtrack is almost a lead character itself. Even the choreographed, production numbers (which is something I'd normally hate) are extremely enjoyable because they're such obvious jabs at Elvis movie song sequences.The cast of this film is just amazing. Johnny Depp is supremo hot and Amy Locane is great considering she was only 19 and just starting her career. Iggy Pop is PERFECT and absolutely adorable as Uncle Belvedere. Ricky Lake, Traci Lords and the rest of the 'gang' are a hoot! And of course there's Patty Hearst, Willem Defoe, and the legendary Polly Bergen and lovely Joey Heatherton (you'll find her unrecognizable as Milton's sourpuss, bible thumping mother!) The best thing about the cast though, was the inclusion of some of the actual old teen stars from the '50s in cameos: David Nelson, Troy Donahue. Fun script, fun cast...just FUN all around! 9/10
