Review of Baby Driver (2017) by James V — 23 Oct 2017

I really liked this movie. I like being able to feel the characters as more than just what a writer listed out as personality traits. I feel I got to know not only the main character Baby, but also the supporting side cast as well.

I hate it when movies don't make logical sense in terms of why people did things but in this movie everything makes sense. I'm not nitpicking any of the characters choices no matter how dumb they are because it legitimately feels genuine.

Reliability, plot and character interactions, check. Personally I really enjoyed how I found myself tense during scenes where there so much build up it feels like it'll explode. Certain plot twists and interactions that may or may not have resulted in an action scene really portray that if a situation is set up perfectly, it can create strong intense desire for the movie.

I got invested into how the characters may get affected by what is unfolding on the screens. I'd say congrats to the writer who left out all the good parts of a movie, removing all the mundane and unimportant bits.

Another things that was great was the interaction and romance between Baby and Debora. I personally really liked their interactions and I feel like this would've seemed forced had they chosen other actors.

The chemistry is there and I was emotionally invested into their future together. Action, suspense, and romance. This movies got it all set up in a very enjoyable movie.
