Baby Driver Film Review - Intense Driving Action

Let me begin with my assumption that I wasn't going to like this film, but the 97% rating on Rotten Tomatoes made me curious, and I'm now really glad I watched.

This is an Intense driving action film for both action and music fans. The story is of 'Baby', who is a teenager and the best getaway driver in the business, his quirk is he plays music continuously through earplugs to cope with constant tinnitus following a childhood accident. Baby works for a crime boss, brilliantly played by Kevin Spacey. Baby is the lucky charm and is used for every bank job or armed robbery.

Baby meets a waitress who provides the romantic element and who shares his passion for music. They fall in love and plan to run away together. But, of course, Baby has just one last job before he can leave the crime world.

The plot is very cleverly written, there's an excellent non-stop soundtrack that coordinates the action and music, that is as much a character as any of the actors. The car chases are without any CGI, making them more realistic (like you're really in the car).

Baby Driver is a must-see, highly recommended film.
If you didn't know you might guess was directed by Tarantino.

10/10.
