Baby Driver (4K UHD Review)

Baby (Ansel Elgort) is a good kid. He loves his music, keeps his attitude upbeat, and takes care of his elderly, wheelchair-bound guardian. He’s also a really good driver. There’s just one hitch: Most of the driving Baby does is for Atlanta, GA’s leading criminal mastermind, Doc (Kevin Spacey), and it involves armed robbery and fast, clean getaways from the same. Baby’s unusual for another reason too: He’s always listening to music, even while on the job. That doesn’t mean he ever misses a detail, but it does lead to some occupational conflict with his co-workers, a rogue’s gallery of gun-slinging criminals that include Buddy, Darling, Griff, Bats, No-Nose, and JD (played by Jon Hamm, Eiza González, Jon Bernthal, Jamie Foxx, Flea, and Lanny Joon, respectively). Fortunately, though, Baby’s life is looking up. He’s almost paid back the debt he owes Doc and he’s just met a nice girl, Debora (Lily James), who not only understands him but might want to share a future with him. All he has to do is survive a few more jobs to make it happen.
