Movie Reviews

CinePassion - 8/10 by Fernando F. CroceA patchy romance but tough-minded and full of vividly smudged emotions
Film Freak Central - 8/10 by Walter ChawA peculiarly absorbing and sticky film, Baby, It's You is all the more so for its relative uniqueness in Sayles' oeuvre.
Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 7/10 by Dennis SchwartzAn uneven teenage romantic comedy by John Sayles.
Nitrate Online - 7/10 by Dan LybargerOne of John Sayles' lesser films, but Arquette and Spano are good, and Sayles manages to make an "opposites attract" story that doesn't seem stale.
User Review - 8/10 by Janet DSo, I'm on kind of a weird "stalker" quest...to watch all of Robert Downey Jr's movies (not just because he's gorgeous, but I want to see his progression as an actor). Well, I blinked and missed his part...after a very slow fast forward through the movie again, I saw a brief flash of his face on the dance floor in the high school prom scene. So, that was a bit of a disappointment! I had expected to hate this movie based mostly on the Netflix rating and the fact that it was from 1983 and I'd never even heard of it. What a surprise! It was really quite good.The plot was intelligent and definitely kept me hooked. Vincent Spano was excellent in the sexy bad boy role and I really like Rosanna Arquette. Definitely worth renting...
User Review - 8/10 by Samuel BThis movie is more than just your standard formula 80's teen movie. It really is a social commentary film about class and opportunity in America. The young-hot-shot guy who is filled with the confidence of youth, but comes from a poor family and neighborhood (with no real support network) goes for the pretty jewish girl, who's father is a successful Doctor, and who has a family that supports her emotionally and financially. This movie is more honest in my opinion about the two different worlds that these two come from and how that in the end, ultimately reveals how they ultimately never had a chance to begin with. Nuff said, check this one out.
User Review - 8/10 by Pavan RA pretty painful watch, but so good. Sayles and Arquette at their best.
User Review - 8/10 by Steve SOne of John Sayles early films is a little treasure about nostalgic first love. But, the film becomes a much darker and much deeper film than that as it goes along. Rosanna Arquette is sweet and Vincent Spano make an incredible impact as "Sheik".
User Review - 6/10 by Tishka FHaunted me as a child ... but not in a bad way.
