Default Baby Driver *LIVE* on GRM

No question as to what this summer's best date night movie is, right?

Here's a link to a GRM interview with stunt driver Jeremy Fry who plays Baby [edit: Baby behind the wheel.]

I saw previews of this in the movies recently and thought "meh" but then I saw a post from a respected "car journalist" saying that you have to see this movie. Looked like a fast and furious knockoff to me but I will see about giving it a shot.

Movie is good. Opening driving scene is great.

Movie is basically a musical or at least structured
completely around music.

That's one of the really cool things about this movie. What Baby is hearing in his (always present) headphones is the soundtrack to the movie. And the gunshots are all timed to that score! Pretty incredible!

Liked it a lot. I'll need to see it again to find a lot of the stuff they're doing - there's SO much!

We just saw it. Worthwhile see. The ads make it look like a moronic film IMO and I resisted seeing it until a number of friends told me it was good.

Okay went to see this movie with my wife, who is an accomplished driver, black in PCA and signed off Solo in BMW. She also pits for me at all of my races, so a car nut like the rest of us. I had to apologize to her have way through the movie she had that look on her face, worse yet I am going to have to sit though a chick flick next in my opinion good for Netflix
