I was spending a whole day out and about by myself when I impulsively decided to see a movie. My local historic theater was playing it so I caught the bus and bought my ticket for the first afternoon show of the day. Since Wonder Woman was still showing, I thought Baby Driver would be in one of the smaller theaters. But since it was opening weekend, I was able to see it in the main theater. I was dead center with only a handful of other people in there with me. I curled up with my popcorn and loved every second of it. I haven't been the biggest fan of Ansel Elgort but he's amazing as Baby. He totally made me fall in love with him.

Kelly and I were long overdue for a movie matinee date so we went out on 4th of July. It was crazy packed in the theater but I was able to snag two seats while Kelly went out to get something to eat. The movie was even better the second time. The crowd really made watching it much more enjoyable. We all laughed and gasped and cheered all at the same time. It was epic. This time, I was more interested in the soundtrack. It really is its own character.

Despite the fact that I really want to see Spider-man: Homecoming, there was no way in hell I was seeing it opening night on a Friday. So the boyfriend and I decide to see Baby Driver. It had finally been moved to the smaller theater on the side. It had a larger crowd than I expected but again, it added to the experience in a positive way. My boyfriend could hardly contain his joy at all the car chasing scenes. He loved it and I loved watching his excitement and joy.
I definitely think that this is one of Edgar Wright's best films. It's right behind Scott Pilgrim vs the World for me. When it becomes available to own, I am going to buy my own copy. But until then, I don't even wanna think about watching this movie again.
