Review of Ambulance (2022) by Tvjerry — 12 Apr 2022
Michael Bay is best known for his big budget, big screen epics. This one keeps lots of his spectacular sensibilities, but in a more limited environment. Jake Gyllenhaal plays a gruff, seasoned bank robber who recruits his "brother" (Yahya Abdul-Mateen II) to be the getaway driver for his latest heist.
Natch, things go horribly wrong and they end up in the titular vehicle with a wounded police officer and an EMT. After the fast-paced robbery and ensuing shootout, the rest of the film is one long chase with impressive stunts and dozens of cars crashing.
Bay's love for fast, fluid camerawork has amped up with his dizzying drone shots. Of course, the editing keeps the action on its toes and Gyllenhaal adds a few comic asides. If you can ignore the insane absurdity of the whole premise, this is an over-the-top wild ride.
