Leave your thoughts about Cry-Baby.
| Miami HeraldBill CosfordPeppered with fun-to-spot cameos (can you spot Williem Dafoe?), the parody-satire script works well with Depp's adept handling of the titular bad boy. A delinquent joy-ride, though without the Hard-core distaste of previous Waters flicks, which may or may not be a bad thing. |
| TIME MagazineRichard CorlissThe movie isn't handsome or measured or seamless -- the very notion of a well-made film would offend the director's antiaesthetic -- but once it gets revved up, Cry-Baby is keen fun from the onetime Belial of Baltimore. |
| VarietyVariety StaffJohn Waters' mischievous satire of the teen exploitation genre is entertaining as a rude joyride through another era, full of great clothes and hairdos. |
| Blu-ray.comBrian OrndorfShowcases the very best of Waters's sense of humor and enthusiasm for details, crafting a loving parody of already goofy efforts. |
| Entertainment WeeklyOwen GleibermanThere are some funny moments, but this may be the first time the director's scabrous, anarchic wit seems vaguely depressed. |
| Empire MagazineJo BerryA delinquent joy-ride, though without the Hard-core distaste of previous Waters flicks, which may or may not be a bad thing. |
| Time OutMark KermodeWaters' finest film to date, a worthy successor to Hairspray which exudes teen angst and young lust from every pore. |
| Common Sense MediaBrian CostelloCampy '50s parody has mild sex references, violence. |
| Orlando SentinelJay BoyarCry-Baby is hipper and funnier than any Elvis flick ever was, but in many ways it's not so different from Viva Las Vegas or Blue Hawaii. |
| Chicago TribuneGene SiskelFor a while the actors seem intimidated by the `50s references, but the film eventually develops a musical energy that carries the day. Amy Locane shows promise as the virtuous girl who falls for juvenile delinquent Johnny Depp. |
