WHAT’ S IT ABOUT?

A young and talented getaway driver named Baby (Elgort) relies on his own personal soundtrack to be the very best at his profession.

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

After bravely saying no to Marvel’s rules during pre-production on his then-in-development take on Ant-Man, Edgar Wright has gleefully stuck to his own rules with this fun and exciting action-thriller that sees him working with a very fine ensemble cast and a seriously toe-tapping soundtrack.
