Even for Edgar Wright, a visually acute and idiosyncratic filmmaker, his 2017 heist caper, Baby Driver, is a supremely ingenious film. The film's direction and style are commanding on the screen. It is the kind of film that reminds general audiences of the power of the director. Baby Driver is filled to the brim with innovative cinematic flourishes and radiant influences that inspire budding filmmakers. Despite how shrewd and skillful Wright's vision was, it couldn't account for unfortunate twists such as rights refusals from the proprietors of a classic horror icon. However, Wright's denied permission to use the mask of Michael Myers from Halloween led to a hilarious joke in an already sharply humorous film.
