What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? Movie Review
Aldrich's direction and dynamite performances from the two old troupers make this film an experience.Don Druker-Chicago Reader
The chain of circumstances grows, violence creating violence. Once the inept, draggy start is passed, the film's pace builds with ever-growing force.
Variety Staff-Variety
The Grand Guignol elements themselves are relatively forced and unconvincing.
-Time Out
There is nothing particularly moving or significant about these two.
Bosley Crowther-New York Times
[A] frightening, darkly comic picture ...
Philip French-Observer [UK]
The on-screen fireworks were reportedly fuelled by off-screen hatred, but the chemistry between the stars is unquestionably hair-raising and upped the Gothic stakes to camp shock levels.
Alan Jones-Radio Times
There are plenty of thrills and no shortage of suspense in this darkly comic horror film.
Andrew Schenker-Little White Lies
Remains fascinatingly warped: an extended study in decaying flesh, set to a score mordantly trying to break into Hooray for Hollywood.
Mike McCahill-Guardian [UK]
The ultimate camp-Gothic bitchfight. Vastly entertaining.
Tim Robey-Daily Telegraph
Remains a masterclass in 'uglying up' and a relevant comment on the destructive nature of celebrity.
Jane Crowther-Total Film
Hag horror doesn't get any better (read: demented) than this. For the film's 50th anniversary, Warner rolls out the red carpet with a sparkling Blu-ray transfer and impressive DigiBook packaging, even if the extras remain the same as on the earlier DVD.
Budd Wilkins-Slant Magazine
[VIDEO] "What Ever Happened to Baby Jane" is a legendary thriller worthy of its two great stars.
Cole Smithey-ColeSmithey.com
Depending on your sensibilities, the film is either a black camp comedy or psychological horror %u2013 either way, it's hugely entertaining
Andrew L. Urban-Urban Cinefile
The 1930s Lugosi/Karloff match-ups at Universal Studios only suggested the potential of what a decades-long feud like Bette Davis and Joan Crawford could produce.
Matthew Sorrento-Film Threat
It's still vivid, barnstorming stuff.
Peter Bradshaw-Guardian [UK]
For the viewer, too, this creepy mood-piece is far from a comfortable watch.
Kim Newman-Empire Magazine
Creepy, freaky and memorably histrionic.
Daniel Etherington-Film4
Crawford wisely underacts -- if her performance isn't as showy as Davis's, it's not any less accomplished.
-TV Guide's Movie Guide
Sick! Sick! Sick!
Cole Smithey-ColeSmithey.com
...the movie remains a hoot...it doesn't make a whole lot of sense, but it is unquestionably fun in its totally off-the-wall manner. (Two-Disc Special Edition)
John J. Puccio-Movie Metropolis
