Efter att ha regisserat (och skrivit) filmer som Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz Scott Pilgrim vs the World är Edgar Wright tillbaka med vad som ser ut som en lika hårdkokt som charmig action-musikal proppad med våghalsig bilkörning. Den heter Baby Driver och visade upp sig för första gången i helgen i form av en underbar liten trailer. Klicka här för att kika.
Officiell synopsis:
"Baby Driver follows a young getaway driver named Baby (Ansel Elgort) who is nearly mute and suffers from a condition that leaves a constant ringing n his ears, so he relies on his own personal soundtrack to drown out the noise so he can do what he does best; Drive."
Variety skriver:
"Like all Edgar Wright movies, Baby Driver is a blast, featuring wall-to-wall music and a surfeit of inspired ideas. But it's also something of a mess, blaring pop tunes of every sort as it lurches between rip-roaring car chases, colorful pre-caper banter, and a twee young-love subplot, to the extent that the movie will resonate most with audiences that skew young, hip, and, like its helmer and its hero (the latter played by baby-faced The Fault in Our Stars star Ansel Elgort), more than a little obsessive."
The Hollywood Reporter skriver:
"A movie-as-mixtape with few slots available for catch-your-breath downtempo tracks, Edgar Wright's rollicking Baby Driver is a Gone in 60 Seconds for the La La Land crowd, a True Romance that relishes the long wait before its young lovers can finally go on the lam. A crime-flick love story as Pop-conscious as Wright's earlier work but unironic about its romantic core, it will delight the director's fans but requires no film-geek certification."

"My expectations for Baby Driver were already through the roof so when I tell you that all I wanted to do was stand up and applaud the 113 minutes I just observed when the lights came back up you should know that feeling had to pass a bar set so high that it might as well be touching the ceiling."
