Bullet Train (2022)


Brad Pitt finds himself on a high-speed rail train from Tokyo to Kyoto with a bunch of trained assassins who are trying to kill him. It's a nonstop thrill ride that propels itself through highly stylized action-comedy sequences which can feel a bit excessive at times. Like Boy Kills World, it's a fun, turn-off-your-brain film, even though it runs a bit long and gets repetitive at a certain point. My favorite parts were all the surprise cameos, which I won't spoil here. Could have used more Karen Fukuhara, though. Her entire part was in the trailer.
