Vashirdfel Simply A Masterpiece

PodBill Just what I expected

Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Derrick Gibbons An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

donaldricco I really liked the book, and this movie is pretty darn close to it! Bette Davis is awesome as Jane! I really loved the way she shuffles around in her slippers! Just a creepy, tore-up performance! And Joan Crawford is really good too! The movie doesn't have quite the terror or build up of the book, but watching Davis is well worth it! And her singing that song "I've Written a Letter to Daddy" is still ringing about in my head! Yeesh! Between that song, and the creepy Baby Jane doll, I'm not sure if I'll get much sleep tonight!

Majikat This film has been on my watch list forever. Always knew the gist of the plot, but this was sheer brilliance for the age of the film. Completely character driven, Bette Davis was every inch the wicked sister and played so well a tortured soul herself.the Storyline is timeless and the film makes a great oldie!

jerralagbayani Thrilling, A Never Aging Horror, More Scary than the Babadook, this film has it all! Basically Jane is constantly talking smack about Bette and torments her breaking her down to her last options. As the story progresses you can see the violent change in Jane's character as she percieves Bette as sort of a "baby" in some ways, and goes to the point where she wants to torture Bette for fun. This film beats Split and Babadook and has the highest rating and applause I may ever rate on this site. There is almost nothing wrong out of the film but gets a little slow 4/5ths in for about 15 minutes.

janiceferrero I've always being a fan of What Ever Happened To Baby Jane. I saw it for the first time as a teenager and Bette and Joan became my obsession. I tried to see everything they had done and did I? All About Eve, The Little Foxes, Now Voyager as well as Mildred Pierce, Humoresque. I warmed up quicker to Bette. Her horrible women were priceless and she was fearless. Joan Crawford kept me at a distance, I think the cosmetics got in the way. But now, watching Baby Jane in 2017 - thanks to the amazing Ryan Murphy series "Feud" - I saw a very different Crawford and her performance has grown in scope and depth. I know I shall see this film again. Fascinating to realize there is still so much to discover.
