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.

it's a video game musical

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!!

*THE JON SPENCER BLUES EXPLOSION*

so magnetic all around it's likely the best film of the summer already. wright booms of class/wit and rocks the fuck out of exuberant filmmaking

LA LA LAND meets GRAND THEFT AUTO.

a gorgeous ballet of gunfire and car crashes.

BABY DRIVER totally fucks. the coolest cool to ever fucking cool. plays out less like a typical action film and more like kenny ortega's THE ITALIAN JOB. an absolute thrill-ride of endearment, cleverness, perfect casting, costumes, references and just some of the best camerawork you'll ever see in car chase movie. and lily james is just too goddamn cute.

but you didn't need to read any of that, because who could stay away from a new edgar wright movie?

What if Drive was funny?

Edgar Wright please call me and explain why you cast my mortal enemy Anseligan Elgortian in this role making him somewhat attractive to me for the first (and fucking last) time. It was like being turned on by the driving abilities of an alpaca in sunglasses and it was freaking me out. 

On a more relevant note, the third act went a bit Return of the King and feels like it might drag on repeat viewings but it's not gonna stop me watching it again because it's the best movie I've seen in cinemas for a longgggg time. I really, really loved it. Good job 👏🏻

I dunno, it's mostly fine and fun but stretches out Wright's style to its limit. Only takes a few minutes to realize this is reverse engineered from a playlist, that every shot and action is timed to a song yet never feels musical (unless Elgort's lip-syncing and dancing, and the less said about that the better). My memory might be wrong but the action in other Wright movies felt way less generic than it does here, where any sense of spatial dynamics is pretty much lost after a certain point. The whole thing feels rushed in the beginning, like the root beer I finished half an hour in then had to sit with while waiting to pee for the rest of the movie.

Sky Ferreira is perfectly cast as an angelic figure.

Edgar Wright is back......Baby!

With two of the finest action/comedies to his name, ever being able to top it seems a monumental task. Baby Driver is the epitome of a fun movie with exhilarating action and a top notch soundtrack to boot, your feet will be stomping and your fingers will be drumming the whole way through. 

Wright has always been praised for his unique style of editing and he may have just topped the bar here. Spacey is fantastic, Foxx is brilliant, Hamm is perfect and Elgort nails it. You won't find another film quite like this all year.

WOAH THIS WAS AMAZING

This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

W o w.

This is why I love movies 😩😩😩😩Everything from the acting to the editing to the sound was perfect. And god damn I did not expect it to be as heavy and as emotional as it actually was. I left the theater feeling inspired, which doesn't really happen a lot anymore. I loved this so so so much.

One of the best summer movies in a while. Awesome stacked cast, even better soundtrack and action packed enough to make you invested in case you lose interest by the amazing chemistry that Ansel Elgort and Lily James have. You did good Edgar.

What a fantastic fucking movie. Edgar Wright is on a different level. He's playing chess while the rest of us are playing checkers, and is making damn near everyone making films look like an amateur. I don't think I'll ever make a film as good as this guy.
