Well, I saw " Baby Driver".

The best part of the movie, in my opinion, was the musical score. The soundtrack should be a big seller.

The movie is interesting. It has a relatively new plot. It's not predictable. The actors are great. The choreography of the chase scenes and Baby dancing/walking is fantastic.

The plot revolves around a crime boss, Doc played by Kevin Spacey, who hires a revolving group of thieves to rob various locations but he always hires Baby, played by Ansel Elgort, as the get-away driver. Jon Hamm has the part of a thief that keeps you guessing. Jaimie Foxx is another thief with his own ideas. It's not really predictable except you know Baby is going to fall in love with Debora, played by Lily James.

You can tell which are the bad guys by the language. The f-word spews out of their mouths constantly. Baby, not so much. His deaf foster father, played by C J Jones who actually is deaf, loves him and tries to keep him on the right track.

As I said it is interesting. It does drag in a few spots but not many. It wasn't my favorite but you may have an entirely different opinion than I do. Let me know.

So go. Have fun. Eat popcorn.
