The soundtrack makes the film. It blows away both Guardians of the Galaxy soundtracks. I loved how Wright synched all the soundtrack with gun shots, action and dialogue. Really well done
Really dug this film and if you're familiar with Edgar Wright, you know he's talented (Hot Fuzz, Shaun of the Dead, Scott Pilgrim). This film was a lot of fun and definitely a good time at the theater . |

I did not realize it was the same director as those others. I have not seen Scott Pilgrim but liked the other two films. I really enjoyed the car chases as well. They were done pretty realistically, unlike the stupid Fast and Furious where they are jumping buildings. Even the chase on foot was pretty exciting. Lots of action for sure. |

One of the best movies I've seen in the last five years.
The way they blended action, cars, guns and music was nearly perfect. And at no point did I think "huh, that looked fake." It was kind of like Ferris Bueller, The Transporter and Kingsman had a threesome and produced a beautiful bastard child. |

I liked the shootouts as well. Someone standing in an open area shooting automatic weapons in each hand at cops- actually get their ass shot off like they would in real life. It gets old watching movies where the police have the shooting accuracy of Barney Fife. Police train for hours at gun ranges because their lives and safety of others depend on it. But in movies, they can't hit the broadside of a barn while the hero can surf on top of a speeding car and never miss. |

Foxx plays a real sleazebag pos in this one, stone cold killer. One of his better performances. Foxx was pretty amazing in Ray and has kind of slipped since then, I think this movie brings back how talented he really is. |
