Go quickly and catch 'Baby Driver'!
I saw this in Russian; something may have been lost in the translation.
Baby Driver… Why would you do that to your movie? Why would you use such a ridiculously dumb name to describe such a fantastic, intense and strangely fell-good film? It boggles the mind that Edgar Wright wouldn’t know better and that the studio let him do it. Don’t let the name throw you off. Baby Driver is amazing.
Ansel Elgort stars as Baby who is likely the best getaway driver on the planet. He sets his life to music, always wears sunglasses, and is generally nice to people aside from the bank heists. While the driving stunts and Elgort’s own choreographed movements as he walks through the city are incredible, it is Wright’s use of rhythm and music that makes this film much more than a typical genre movie. I can’t remember the last time I saw a film where sound was so important – and it has a justification for it being so! John Hamm, Kevin Spacey, Jamie Foxx and Lily James all deliver knockout performances.
Along with Logan and Wind River, Baby Driver is one of the best movies I have seen this year. Go treat yourself to a film whose title doesn’t do it justice and enjoy the action, driving and sound.
