It rips through 113 minutes<\/strong>. Ansel Elgort plays Baby, a gifted getaway driver trying to get out from under Atlanta crime boss Doc, played by Kevin Spacey, after he falls for Debora, the waitress played by Lily James. And if someone told you this was basically a Jon Bernthal movie<\/a>, that\u2019s overstating it. Bernthal is here, but only in a supporting role as the twitchy, volatile Griff.<\/p>\n\n

Wright takes that simple premise and turns it into something far more distinctive. Chases, gunshots, footsteps, even movement in the background lock into a carefully selected soundtrack. You can see traces of Vanishing Point<\/em>, Heat<\/em>, and Point Break<\/em>, sure, but the snap of the editing, the practical effects, and the precision of the set pieces<\/strong> make it feel like its own movie.<\/p>\n\n

Bernthal doesn\u2019t get much screen time, but Griff leaves a mark. He\u2019s tough, suspicious, and unpredictable. Reports say Bernthal spoke with real career criminals<\/strong> while getting ready for the role, which goes a long way toward explaining why the menace feels believable.<\/p>\n\n

If you like thrillers built with real craft, it\u2019s an easy one to pick. The movie pulled in about $227 million<\/strong> worldwide on a $34 million budget, critics responded well, the National Board of Review did too, and Wright has written a possible sequel. For now, the original is on Paramount+, though availability still depends on what country you\u2019re in.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
