Baby It's You Ratings & Reviews
Crooked Marquee
Sean Burns
So much more than a movie about lovestruck teens, it's a sad and sometimes uncomfortably perceptive picture about the gaps between who we are and the people we wish we were.
Vanity Fair
Carol Flake
With its dark realism, rock 'n' roll delirium, and gutsy humor, Baby, It's You builds up to the mythic resonance of the finest American coming-of-age films.
CinePassion
Fernando F. Croce
A patchy romance but tough-minded and full of vividly smudged emotions
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
John Sayles film is a well acted tale of doomed romance.
TV Guide
Sayles's class-consciousness is telling as always, and the director is so good at creating complex, persuasive characters that one is tempted to overlook narrative weaknesses, especially in the final third of the film.
New York Times
Janet Maslin
A labor of love for everyone involved.
Chicago Reader
Dave Kehr
As a filmmaker, Sayles still seems more likable than incisive or original, but it's a likability with a certain brilliance.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
Rosanna Arquette has a way about her.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
An uneven teenage romantic comedy by John Sayles.
Nitrate Online
Dan Lybarger
One 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.
Hollywood Bitchslap
Oz
Arquette, still green under the gills when this flick was made, doesn't light up the screen. Neither does Spano, despite being dubbed one of the "12 most promising young actors of 1983".
Film Freak Central
Walter Chaw
A peculiarly absorbing and sticky film, Baby, It's You is all the more so for its relative uniqueness in Sayles' oeuvre.
