This movie is a mess. The action was hamfisted and mediocre. While the stunts are okay on a professional standard, they're horribly shot and edited. There were so many quick cuts in this film. I understand they are trying to sync with music, but action scenes are nothing when YOU CAN'T SEE ANYTHING. The tequila scene gave me Tak3n syndrome and it was god awful. The story is very simple/mediocre typical story. All characters are archetypes of 70s - 80s action flicks. They're very one dimensional and it's just not original. The film takes a lot of influence (both narrative and visuals) from 1978 thriller The Driver. Lots of shots of vehicles closing in, drifting, pov shots, rear views, inside shots, etc. The main character is even a mute, but he's autistic and has tinnitus for the sake of being an annoying plot device. The music was the most annoying part of them all. They just put in some crappy pop and rock old music and try to be all hipster. This film starts with one of the most autistic and cancerous scenes I've seen all year. It was worse than the entirety of La La Land. It was cringeworthy bad. There is a bait and switch in the film that ruins the rest of the 3rd act. Jamie Foxx is basically killed off and Jon Hamm's stupid booboo starts playing Rambo at a point blank range. It's stupid stuff characters do like that that gets themselves killed. Then, Mr. Buddy blames Baby for the reasoning why his stupid wife died. From that course, we get an over the top performance from Mr. Hamm as the main villain. Baby of course kills him. The ending is your typical cliché happy ending.
4/10.
