Except that lead actor. Nobody was home.

I kept imagining what a young Johnny Depp or Ryan Gosling could have done to inject some soul into surface portrait.

I'm an acting nerd. What can I say.

And yeah. I felt like applauding at the end of this sequence when I saw it in the theatre. Edgar Wright. Yeah.

That hits the "giddy" button in me!

I've never seen anything that beats the car chases in Ronin.

This is good, but suffers too much from the current culture of many fast cuts rather than really setting the scene and letting us join the action. I also think the cutting is a little too predictable, partly because they basically re-use three different shots over and over with only occasional drops to different POVs. It also feels a little too much like "look what stunts I can do" rather than an actual life (in prison) or freedom car chase which drains much of the tension from the scene.

@bareboards2, yeah, I'm not a fan of Ansel Elgort either, and I'm kinda worried about him playing Han Solo.

@Drachen_Jager Ronin, hell yes! Such a great car chase. Totally underrated movie.

I haven't seen Baby Driver yet (doesn't come out until the 20th on NZ), but isn't the whole point that it's NOT realistic? I thought the concept was basically "car chase musical"? Agree about the cutting, though, which I'm surprised at from Edgar Wright.

Never mind, I'm an idiot. It's actually Alden Ehrenreich

In my defence, they're both unusual names with the initials A.E.

Dare I say, ya'll missing the point. It's a getaway movie staring a 2006 Subaru WRX. Not an Austin, not an Audi, not a Jag. The folks acting take a back seat. Pretentious this is not, fun it is.

More boxer engine notes!

As artificial and awkward as Sebastian Vettel's victory celebrations. Nice sound and pictures.

Han Solo might be a good fit actually, in a positive way.
