Review of Baby Driver (2017) by Keithdow — 02 Jul 2017
Baby Driver is essentially a musical action flick. The opening scene sets a manic tone for the rest of film in what feels like a mashup between La La Land and The Town. Simply put, writer/director Edgar Wright has a way of moving through scenes and occupying their spaces like none other.
The visceral nature of Baby Driver is also attributable to the fact that 95 percent of the action and effects happen in-camera—shot on 35mm film no less—with CGI utilized for just a few touch-ups and quick shots.
Baby Driver is yet another superb addition to Edgar Wright’s already impressive list of films. And thankfully it serves as a sort of oasis, easily among the best films released this year, in what so far has been a remarkably tepid output from Hollywood.
