Starting a new show on Netflix is like opening a new window into someone else's world. We are taken to other worlds to learn about incredible stories and memorable characters.

In today's digital age, streaming platforms like Netflix have transformed the way we engage with stories. From gripping dramas that keep us on the edge of our seats to enlightening documentaries that expand our horizons, Netflix and streaming sites have become a big part of our daily lives.

Two words. Baby. Driver. Baby Driver is an amazing movie about a young man who is the getaway driver for some of the most notorious heists known. Now, I'm never really a big fan of car/driving movies, so for me to make this exception already shows how amazing this movie is. The cinematography is the first clue at this movie's astonishing quality. Director Edgar Wright catches us right off the bat with his amazing skills. The movie plays with primary colors, mixing when characters meet in the reflection of laundry machines and rearview mirrors. Each scene is uniquely beautiful and colorful, the vibrancy of each frame bringing characters and stories to life.Then there's the music and editing. Each scene is meticulously crafted perfectly on the beat to every song in the soundtrack, which, if I may, is amazing. It spans from Young MC to The Commodores flawlessly. And every move, every turn of the wheel and tap of Baby's fingers, is, without fail, to the beat of each song. Finally, the cherry on top that puts Baby Driver above all other movies is its intensely emotional and painstakingly complex relationships. First is Baby and Doc. Baby owes Doc, which is why he agrees to drive for his heists. But the two begin to take on an almost father-son relationship, covering for each other and having each other's backs. Second is Buddy and Darling. Their relationship is evident from the beginning, but the extent of Buddy's rage when Debora is affected by anything exemplifies their raging, all-consuming love. Thirdly, Baby and Joe have a beautiful and quiet (literally and metaphorically) relationship that heavily contrasts all the others in the movie. They speak to each other in sign language as the movie reflects the silence with less vibrancy and softer or no music. Joe acts as the grounding man in Baby's life, constantly reminding him of real life around him. Finally, and most importantly, is Debora and Baby. The two find themselves in a whimsical, romantic love that practically nothing can break. As the movie progresses, the two begin to trust each other so much that they practically become one, operating together with full faith in the other. Each character, incredibly different, meets another with a completely opposite personality, yet they all work together perfectly. Each scene is crafted with the amazing colors, sound, and angles. If you want to watch a movie that feels like a puzzle where the pieces could not be any more perfect, I would recommend Baby Driver time and time again.
