Baby Driver (Amazon Prime Video, Hulu)

“Baby Driver” is a 2017 action-adventure thriller starring Ansel Elgort, Lily James, Jon Hamm, Kevin Spacey, Jaime Foxx and Eiza González. 

The film follows Ansel Elgort as Baby, who works as a getaway driver for Kevin Spacey’s character, Doc. Although he doesn’t want to continue in that line of work, there are consequences that would harm those close to him, which becomes even more complicated once he meets and forms a relationship with Deborah, played by Lily James.

The opening scene in this film will grab your attention and keep you hooked until the very end, so it is definitely worth the watch. Don’t expect anything too light-hearted with this film though.
