Have you ever watched the movie that satisfies your music OCD (that one where you have to make something in beat of music)? Well, I guess that Edgar made it W”right”.

After being coerced into working for a crime boss, a young getaway driver finds himself taking part in a heist doomed to fail.

I watched this movie two months before releasing in Croatia on a film festival and I am pleased that I had that chance! This movie is another Edgar Wright’s masterpiece and I think that he’s one of the best directors (if not the best) working today. I love Hot Fuzz and Scott Pilgrim and I couldn’t wait for this movie to release and now when I finally watched it, I’m feeling full again. The story is not that original, but the whole idea with music is something else. Everything done in this movie is perfectly synced with music that Baby is listening… Yeah, his name is Baby, B-A-B-Y. It’s smooth and it’s pace is great. A lot of critics are thinking that the love story part is a bit draggy, but I think it fits perfectly in the movie.

The acting is great. I worried about Ansel Elgort (Baby) because I watched him acting in The Fault In Our Stars (good) and then in Divergent series (sucks ass), but here he’s great. The whole character is well developed and how he acts by his own feelings. He tries to avoid the whole driving thing, but he couldn’t so that’s where the movie gets complicated. I absolutely LOVE Kevin Spacey as Doc (crime boss). I haven’t seen him before, but here he’s amazing and truly a dick. Jamie Foxx (Bats) did an amazing job as well and he is a perfectly acted bad guy.

Action scenes in this movie are fast and fun. If you already have watched some of Edgar Wrights’ work you’d know what I mean. All action sequences are sync with music and it makes it more fun, like you’re watching a music video. The movie starts with the chase sequence and after seeing that, I was sold! The editing is fast and it has that Edgars stylish look (especially the beginning of the movie).

The recording is also amazing, especially the action scenes and shots of transitions. The soundtrack is amazing, although it’s licenced. It has the best use of the music I’ve seen in a movie for a very long time (probably since Swiss Army Man). It has most of the retro songs and I can’t wait for the list to be released so I can hear it all over again!

At the end, Edgar Wright continues his tradition of good films. I have no complaints about this movie and I really think that it’s the best movie of the year (for now). I recommend it to everyone! Just… GO AND WATCH IT!

My rating: 10/10 (One of my favorite)
