Baby Driver
3 Oscar Nominations
Rent/Purchase
After being coerced into working for a crime boss, a young getaway driver finds himself taking part in a heist doomed to fail.
What critics thought
Edgar Wright's action-musical hybrid earned wide acclaim for its technical craftsmanship and the way it choreographs car chases, editing, and soundtrack into something that feels genuinely new — but the enthusiasm cooled at the third act, where critics split hard over whether the script holds together or collapses under tonal whiplash. Character depth, especially for the women, was a recurring complaint even among admirers.
“one of the most utterly original films in years”
Terri White·Empire
“packed with sheer brio and good nature”
Peter Bradshaw·The Guardian
“rarely do we see a filmmaker start so strong only to end with a whimper”
