Beautifully directed, fast paced, and exhilarating, Baby Driver is a love letter to both chase action movies, and music, a combination that works remarkably well, resulting in a very entertaining experience.

The film is cheesy, and predictable to an astonishing degree, that cannot be denied, but the film's naivetรฉ, likability, decent premise, and okay performances, make it hard to truly dislike this film.

Aside from some minor nitpicks, this is a powerful, well written and well acted war drama, that is genuinely moving without being manipulative, and offers Kate Mara's best performance to date.

Laughable, ridiculous, and completely tension-free, this film relies on both the heroes and the villains acting stupidly and implausible contrivances, contains some poor direction (including some bizarre artistic choices), and is painfully padded to artificially bring the film to feature length.
