Some decent music, pretty good car chases, and some admittedly great editing, maybe even Oscar-worthy. But with a nearly nonexistent story, this is one of the most boring movies I’ve ever seen. The soundtrack, goofy anachronisms, and overly stylistic visuals act as icing on the worst cake you’ve ever had.

Elgort is a mix of Josh Hartnett’s looks, Taron Egerton’s coolness and athleticism, and
Ryan Philippe’s masculine but garbled voice. Lily James is cute. Spacey and Foxx are wasted.
