Editor’s note: Our short take on The Baker (2023): It leans into its Action, Drama, Crime roots without feeling derivative. With Jonathan Sobol at the helm, the film feels purposeful and well-paced. Standout turns from Ron Perlman, Elias Koteas, Harvey Keitel keep it engaging even in quieter stretches. Clocking in at 1h 40m, the pacing is controlled, with room to breathe. Reception is mixed; it works best if you’re in the mood for its specific tone. Its tagline — “Careful who you cross.” — actually reflects the film’s intent. Worth a watch for the craft alone, even beyond the genre appeal.
