  Man...this hit the spot. 

  Life was so good when this hit theaters. Fresh out of my first year of film school, Youtube was just a little hobby at the time, I was working at a small ice cream shop called The Dairy Delight. Opening weekend me and a friend went to see this in the middle of a hot summer day and I was like "man this is such a first-year-out-of-film-school-and-working-at-an-ice-cream-shop-in-the-middle-of-the-summer type of thing for me to do!" The stakes were low and this movie went really nicely with that kind of energy.

  Really do think this is one of the coolest movies out there, very lucky to be alive and young when it's so fresh. Almost, ALMOST, makes me forgive Ansel for what he's put me through these last few days. He's just so damn attractive.

  straight up the most fun i've had in a movie theater since MAGIC MIKE XXL. like an 113-minute version of those year-end video things i make, but, ya know… actually art, and not just legwork. can't *quite* shake the feeling that this was $20 million short of being a masterpiece (just as i'm having a little trouble making sense of how this movie doesn't end with a car chase), but this is still exactly the kind of shot in the arm that mid-budget studio filmmaking needs.

  Baby Driver is the best mixtape ever assembled.

  I don't think a movie has got my adrenaline pumping as much as this movie just did. To say this film was exhilarating would be the understatement of the century.

  Car chases has now reach magnum opus. There's no reason to have another car chase in a movie because it will never come close to the car chases in Baby Driver. There's also some epic shootout sequences. A LOT of blood is shed.

  Ansel Elgort plays one of the best skewed heroes ever put on screen. I haven't rooted this hard for a criminal ever.

  Jamie Foxx absolutely KILLS it! He plays the slimiest fucker ever and I hated him with every ounce of my being.

  Lily James stole my heart.

  On my drive home from the theater I had one of the jam sessions of my life. Threw on the tunes and just drove baby!

  B A B Y motherfuckers!!

  things I noticed the second time around 
  - in the harlem shuffle scene, the lyrics were painted on the walls
  - buddy and darling have "his" and her" tattoos on their necks
  - everytime baby thinks he'll never see debora again he kisses her goodbye
  - this is the best edgar wright film

  Review by Peter Labuza ★★★½ 20

  Edgar Wright would have never fit the 70s New Wave: he belongs at Warners in the 30s. Baby Driver colors inside the lines, but this is a stark contrast from other recent Hollywood films praised being "different enough." He wants the image on screen to matter more than the cultural conversation that occurs afterwards. He's rather cast a David Byrne than a emotive performance (perhaps to a slight detriment when the gears change). He wants to create tone and rhythm and pace - a movie with individual parts instead of a smoothed out surface. Car chases move more like Bollywood dance numbers than action scenes - with each car composed like an individual sari. He's a genuine dork, showing off…
