I thought that this movie was stupendous. The art the scenery the acting the singing the dancing everything was so good and impressed me a lot. Some examples that I liked about the movie were when Johnny Depp and his gang get out of their car and just get rough and tough with the squares. Another that I liked was the riot scene it had so much combat movements in it. And the final thing that I thought was impressive was the music overall it was so upbeat and head banging music.

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.

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.

A small and funny film shot in the late 1980s (1989-1990), at the end of Reagan's era and in the middle of George Bush Senior's regency, has no pretension except to debunk everything and everyone and make fun of a system that is as crooked as it is full of bigotry. A remake of the Mods and the Rockers, of the Jets and the Sharks, the Montague and the Capulet, American sauce on top and whip cream to top it off and kick it up. But this multiple remake is so overloaded with clichés and prejudices that it becomes hilarious and the objective is to make us laugh at those biases and other preconceived ideas about the other group, since the whole world is nothing but A versus B.At the same time the film debunks fake education based on square ideas being the best in the world, on some clean type of dressing being the only decent, godlike and non-obscene way of dressing, all the rest, jeans and everything else, being nothing but homosexual showing off especially for girls who are supposed to wear decent dresses.You add a love story in that viper nest and you have a real Romeo and a genuine Juliet. But the world must have changed because the judge is falling in love with Juliet's grandmother and he becomes sentimental and releases Romeo, alias Cry Baby. I must admit that the prison break is definitely as good as all those we were able to examine and/or supervise in the eponymous TV series. And do not forget that the best way to get out of trouble is to follow the rat. Rats are best to get out of the way, out of trouble and back to home security, I do not mean the security of your home.The film is fabulous as for the music of the late 1950s, actually dated thanks to the evening prayer in the very special school for boys where the "boys" are supposed to thank Dwight Eisenhower and Richard Nixon. That's cool indeed. Be it only for the music the film is worth its eighty-two minutes, but the "dancing" and the performance of the actors, particularly the very young Johnny Depp is refreshing in this world where everything is nothing but special effect and make believe.An excellent piece of dialogue alluding to the famous Unabomber who was definitely literate and had been active in the bombing business since 1978 at the time when the film was made.Cry-Baby: That's right, Allison. My father was the "Alphabet Bomber." He may have been crazy, but he was my pop. Only one I ever had. Allison: God. I heard about the Alphabet Bomber. Bombs exploding in the... in the airport and barber shop... Cry-Baby: That's right. All in alphabetical order. Car wash... drug store... I used to lay in my crib and hear him scream in his sleep..."A,B,C,D,E,F,G... BOOM! BOOM!" Allison: But your mom... Cry-Baby: My mother tried to stop him. She couldn't even spell, for Christ's sake, but they fried her too.Have one empathetic thought for this man who is in prison for life.Dr Jacques COULARDEAU
