Review of Baby Driver (2017) by R J — 17 Aug 2017

First half was excited and interesting. The music selection, the rhythmic choreography was amazing, the story was building. And then, the 2nd half happened. They just threw action at us hoping it would stick. Acting wasn't horrible, but none of these characters were believable as action stars. In the beginning you want to care about some of the characters, in the end, you don't give a care about anybody. Just a real disappointment.

If the first half had been bad, then it would have been expected that the 2nd half would also be bad. But, unfortunately you leave feeling hugely disappointed because the first half was done so well. It's almost like 2 different directors were involved, one for the first half, and one for the second. Yuckk, just such a disappointment. Violence for violence sake wasn't exactly helpful either. In the end you just want all the characters to die.
