Wow. What a terrible movie.

Rating: 1/10 (13 October 2017)

I RARELY review movies. I usually only bother to write a review if a movie actively pisses me off, and Baby Driver did just that.
I've never been so annoyed at an opening 20 minutes of a movie as I was watching Baby Driver. Everything Baby does is insufferable. The other characters (all great actors) are clichès to the point where I might think this movie is a low-key parody.
Like it's been said, this movie HAS A CHARACTER NAMED BABY! ISN'T THAT CRAZY? ISN'T THAT JUST INSANE? HIS NAME IS BABY. IT'S BABY. B-A-B-Y. BABY. THAT'S HIS NAME. HIS NAME IS BABY. CALL ME BABY. I'M BABY. LATER, BABY. someone should seriously do a word count on this film to find out how many times the name 'baby' is said.
It's super cool though how Edgar Wright discovered music last week. WOW, MUSIC IS COOL. BABY'S GOTTA PUT ON A SONG DURING THIS ROBBERY. IT'S BABY'S MUSIC. THIS SONG HAS THE WORD BABY IN IT. SEE HOW I'M TAPPING ON THIS CUP TO EXACT DRUMBEAT OF THE SONG? SEE HOW THAT LINES UP? SEE HOW I FILMED IT LIKE THAT? THAT'S CUZ WE'VE GOT STYLE. A MUSICAL EDGE. IT'S CLASS AND SASS. THAT'S WHAT KIND OF DIRECTOR I AM. SEE HOW THE CAMERA IS NEVER STATIONARY AND ALWAYS ROTATING AROUND SOMETHING. THAT'S MY STYLE.
IN-SUF-FER-A-BULL.
This movie tries to be stylish a la Snatch, or at least i think the director is trying to pull off a Guy Ritchie, but damn if he doesn't miss the mark by a few planets. I mean, I get that Wright isn't exactly after realism, but this is ridiculous.
The movie is just bad. The movie is annoying. The lines, the music, the everything. This movie sucked. This movie really really sucked. I get how teenagers would like this movie, but to get a 7.9 on here? I just, how? What, why? How? and I'm not a pretentious movie snob. I'm a popcorn blue-collar violence and nudity type guy. But good lord, even I have standards. This movie sucks. IT SUCKED. Christ THIS MOVIE SUCKS SOOO BAD.
Do not be fooled. It may say it on the IMDb score (which are clearly, have to be, skewed or tampered with), but this is not Drive. This is not Snatch. And this is not close to HEAT.
Trump is the president, and Baby Driver has a 7.9 on IMDb. Those are facts.
May God have mercy on our souls.
