Can somebody tell me where is the story line IS ?
can somebody tell me where the horror IS?
can somebody tell me what this movie about? because it was painful to watch, boring, boring, boring, No Dialogues JUST A BABY CRYING ALL THE TIME
DON´T WASTE YOUR TIME
This movie was a silent movie. Everything was well acted but it was just odd and at times dumb. Not sure what group this film was aimed for but I did NOT enjoy or like it. The lead was interesting but her never saying a word made her annoy. In the end it was one of those movie you wish you had never even started from the beginning. Maybe when the director decides to incorporate some words I MIGHT consider watching his movies in the future. For now, take my advice and skip this one.
This had potential but I couldn't hit the finish line. The premise had promise, the execution is okay, the look of the film is decent, but this didn't really deliver the goods. You know what Juanma Bajo Ulloa is going for with this but it didn't come close to achieving what it could have with a more deft hand.
Juanma Bajo Ulloa was always a free verse in the Spanish film industry and this time he gives us a gloomy tale wrapped in a beautiful visual presentation with a risky formal bet in its staging, the absence of dialogue.
Baby is visually spectacular. His production design, photography, lighting, set design, music combine to generate images of extreme beauty, which are authentic poetry for the senses.
We must recognize their courage in defying the norms of mainstream cinema, the effort of their actresses to defend their characters and appreciate the wonder of their images, beyond the dramatic result.

A dark fairytale, with beautiful imagery. Don't pay attention to the 1 star review. If you like del Toro, you'll probably like this movie. Those who find it boring, have the attention span of a peanut, and no appreciation for artful films. True, it may not be for everyone, because it's not spelled out for you, and with there being no dialogue, you need to pay attention to the details, but it is a good film. You should broaden your scope, and watch it with an open mind.
