I loved Sweeny Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street with Johnny Depp. So when I saw Cry-Baby on the list of musicals with Depp starring, I though this would be a great addition for the Genre-ary DailyView.

Boy, was I wrong.

I HATED THIS MOVIE!

There was really no story to it. The acting was horrendous. It was so stupid.

Johnny Depp was absolutely was just getting by. You can see flashes of the charisma that he will have later in his career, but this is such a terrible vehicle for him that those few flashes are hidden amongst the garbage.

The movie has 72% on Rotten Tomatoes which absolutely flabbergasts me. 

I will say that a few of the songs were catchy. In particular the song when Cry Baby was in jail. However, honestly, none of the other songs stood out to me at all.

I had just a terrible time watching this movie and I would put it on a list of my least favorite movies ever.
