Amazon.com essential video
John Waters's goofy, 1990 comedy about a Baltimore girl (Amy Locane) who can't decide if she should remain "good" in her 1954 world or hang out with the motorcycle boys is funny in a scene-by-scene way, but doesn't quite gel into the grand piece the director was hoping for. The cast is exceptionally likable, however, including Johnny Depp as an Elvis type and Iggy Pop as a chattering loony. The best material is set in a fringe world of bikers and losers on the outskirts of town, and Waters writes some hilarious sardonic dialogue for the characters. Cry-Baby is the last of Waters's more undisciplined features; he followed it with the glossier but no less perverse Serial Mom. --Tom Keogh

 Cry Baby August 15, 2008
I actually bought this movie as a gift for a relative for his birthday. He is a Johnny Depp fan and was very pleased that I was able to find it. He had been looking for it for a while. I told him he should have checked Amazon in the first place! Thanks for helping me make him happy. I knew I could count on you.

I love Johnny Depp and think he is a terific actor who takes on difficult roles and does them wonderfully BUT THIS IS THE WORST MOVIE EVER MADE, I hated it, in fact I did not get through the whole movie.
It reminded me of a very badly overacted Grease. As good looking as Johnny is, that cant carry this movie. Sorry I bought it as I could have watched it for free on Comcast On Demand:(
come on baby, make it hurt so good! May 26, 2008

OMG I love this movie. It's one of my very favorite movies with one of my very favorite movie actors. Mr. Johnny Depp. Even though the movie has a stellar cast and even though it has a great story that's very funny and entertaining and even though Johnny Depp was the star of it, I never knew of this movie until very recently. Isn't that something.
"Cry-Baby" was directed by g-a-y-as-a-goose director John Waters. John Waters' a genius because he knows how to mix just the right amount of satire, comedy, music and dramatics in each of his movies. IMHO "Cry-Baby" is his very best.
This is the main cast:
Johnny Depp ~ the coolest guy in the entire universe ~ Cry-Baby Walker
Amy Locane ~ otherwise known as Sandy Louise Harling to only her closest friends ~ Allison Vernon-Williams
Ms. Polly Bergen ~ Granny Vernon-Williams
Susan Tyrrell ~ Ramona Rickettes
Kim McGuire ~ Hatchet-Face
Ricki Lake ~ Pepper Walker
Traci Lords ~ Wanda Woodward
Johnny Depp was so adorable as Cry-Baby. He was like Jimmy Dean, Marlon Brando, Jason Priestley, Luke Perry and Jake Hanson all rolled up into a nice little package. I loved his character because as soon as you think he was serious all of a sudden he acted totally screwballish. And, that's how the entire movie was.
Generally, I do not watch musicals, but the songs in this were very good. My favorite was the last song that Cry-Baby "sang." He had his guitar and looked just like Ricky Nelson. So cute. The style of singing reminded me of something I'd hear at a Joe's Crab Shack. It was fast and fun and didn't have much rhyme or reason.
There were also so many funny parts. Ramona Rickettes (Pepper & Cry-Baby's granny) was just too much. She remined me of one of those old biker-babes who are just in this life to have a good time. Maybe that's because that's exactly what/who she was? Ricki Lake was hilarious. She looked like an elephant in a black leather coat who was in her 10th trimester. (Incidentally, isn't the name Pepper so laughable? It so sounds like a dog's name.) I also loved Hatchet-Face because she had a face that could bring a smile to anyone (picture a cross between Bea Arthur, Cyndi Lauper & Cindy Brady.) And I really liked the part with Traci Lords hitching a ride; and all of a sudden that weirdo from the beach pulls up.
Amy Locane was perfectly cast as the sweet and timid Allison. Wasn't she so incredibly attracted to Cry-Baby Walker? (Well, you know what they say, it's that forbidden fruit that tastes the sweetest.) The makeover that Pepper & Wanda gave her was sorta lame though. I pictured her in something much more far-out; like a pair of those "hysterectomy pants" that Ramona Rickettes had on.
I also really enjoyed Ms. Polly Bergen (who's in one of my favorite movies from the 60's, "The Caretakers.") Her facial expressions and mannerisms were totally conducive to the prudish granny that she was playing. And it was so funny because all of a sudden she was for the Drapes. I didn't understand exactly how or why that sudden transformation occurred but with all screwballs the basic plot doesn't need to be understood.
My favorite part was when Cry-Baby and Allison kissed. To borrow the words of the brilliant businesswoman, Paris Hilton: that's hot. Johnny Depp's tongue looked absolutely delicious. And, you know what they say about cry babies with big tongues. I also liked how Cry-Baby's pants (conveniently) fell down as he was escaping from jail and his shirt also tore open to reveal Johnny's hot bod.
I really don't think Cry-Baby was anywhere close to being as evil as he tried to make others believe. He was just a misunderstood boy. He was just like Dorothy
