Baby Driver

Rating: 10/10 (17 October 2017)

"Baby Driver" is the modern car chase that people of all generations would enjoy. There is action, comedy, love, family and tragedy. Also, if you are someone who loves music, all types. Then this movie is a must-see. The movie is about 2 hours and about 20 minutes of the film consists on no music. Due to Baby, played by Ansel Egort, always having earbuds in, the story is told from his point-of-view. If he has headphones in, the the audience will hear the same song he is listening to. In one scene, Baby and his fellow criminal associates, played by Jon Hamm, Jamie Foxx, and Eiza Gonzalez are sent to pick up weapons from a friend of Doc, played by Kevin Spacey. Jamie Foxx's character Bats, goes crazy and starts shooting all of Doc's weapons traders. Baby avoids and hides although he listening to the song "Tequila" and the movement of the fight, the sound of the guns and the overall movement is matched and choreographed perfectly to the sounds of the song. In the scene, there were tons of shots in the about 1-2 minutes scene because of all the action and noise going on and the fast paced song. Although, Baby is disappointed because he meets a young woman, Deborah played by Lily James. Baby now realizes that he wants out of the life of crime and being the get-away driver for Doc and live a white- picket fence family life with Deborah. Unfortunately, Baby has to find a way out to keep the love of his life. Baby is almost a mute. He rarely speaks and even mentions in the movie that he has talked to Deborah more in one night than anyone else all year. To see his how Deborah has changed him into the better person and allows him to become more vocal about getting out of crime and loving her and do whats good for society rather than steal. He changes for the better and it happens at a good pace. Baby does everything to protect Deborah from getting involved with these people. That is why some people have died, so Baby can protect Deborah. Whenever Deborah is around, a song filled with happiness and love is there. When Baby is driving and getting away, the song is fast paced and when he is just walking around, it is a calm and unemotional song. The whole movie is a 2 hour soundtrack. Once again, for anyone who loves music, this is an amazing movie. It is one of my top 10.
