Baby Driver Review

Smooth is the first adjective that pops in my head when I think of Baby Driver. Edgar Wright has cemented his name as one of modern cinema's most distinct filmmakers with his critically acclaimed "Three Flavoured Cornetto Trilogy" and the cult darling Scott Pilgrim Vs The World. This time he tried his hand at directing an action movie and boy! does he do wonders! Even though his earlier films had elements of action, he had not directed a full-fledged action film.

Baby Driver is about the eponymous Baby who is a get away driver (duh!) and helps in criminals escape in heists. His life is turned upside down when he encounters the charming music loving waitress Deborah and he tries to get out of the criminal life. The film has comedy, action, drama, emotions all wrapped up in the most unique soundtrack. The movie is set in a hyper-realistic world where every movement is synced to the music and all the sound produced syncs up to the music. It is a very difficult gimmick to keep up throughout a movie but if someone could do it, it is Edgar Wright and he does an amazing job. This action movie is both stylish and smart.
