It was a fun movie. I think they could have narrowed the love story a little and done another heist/car chase set piece. But, overall, very enjoyable - an action movie that's not part of a blockbuster franchise. There was a nice shot of the Atlanta skyline, some notable street shots and street sign shots (meaning you saw an Atlanta sign, not sure if it was the actual street).

That was my point. Coming out against Descpicable Me 3 was a tall order, I actually tried to see DM3 last night and the tickets were sold out. Probably the same all around the country. For Baby Driver to still come in 2nd place says a lot IMO. And the gun violence thing is *yawn*, what summer time flick that's not geared to kids isn't full of guns and shoot em up stuff? I think that's more of a testament to where America is more so than a reflection of Atlanta. This movie is getting rave reviews, trust me this will stick more so than those other summer blockbusters

I enjoyed it - my gf and I were mentally identifying all the spots around Atlanta it was showing - even the Bo's Diner down in Forest Park.

I loved how they sync'd a lot of movements with the music too.

I saw it, and enjoyed it. However, I found myself constantly distracted by the Atlanta scenery, and felt like I was missing things in the movie because I was always looking at the surroundings.

Haven't seen it yet. Only criticism I've seen (on Twitter) is that it's a white guy in Atlanta.
