Review of Baby Driver (2017) by Kim W — 08 Aug 2017

Despite having a very much misleading name, there is nothing primitive, like a baby about Baby Driver.

Having a spectacular director such as Edgar Wright (with such hits under his belt such as the Three Flavoured Cornetto Trilogy and Scott Pilgrim vs the World) it was only a matter of time before Baby Driver became a hit, all that was required was a cast that could match the ability of the director.

Overall the casting for the movie couldn't have been any stronger, with Elgort again proving again how strong of a actor he truly is. James and Spacey each accumulate phenomenal which personally in my belief three potential Oscar nominated performance, in addition Gonzalez and Hamm give strong performances.

However, one actor I did start to get tired of around half way through the movie, Foxx gave a decent performance, but the repetitive actions of his character, and the way its acted, this does not destroy the movie without a doubt, but extra development and range in the character.

With addition to a all but phenomenal cast, the OST to Baby Driver, may not feature original songs, like other music based films (like La La Land), but the combination of songs and the replection of the songs to the story line, one can't help to compare this to much of a strong soundtrack to the one feature in 'Guardians of the Galaxy'.

With making the Fast and Furious franchise look like a low budget knock off, Baby Driver is a must.

See for all, and providing one of Edgar rights strongest movies ever.

Final verdict - 8.4/10 or A.
