Have fun watching:
“Unlike many recent films about murderers and pranksters, ‘Bullet Train’ recognizes its weirdness early on and still manages to connect so many dots creatively and humorously.” -Chicago Sun Times.
“’Bullet Train’ is confusing and repetitive. It’s just a moving train wreck. The film has many famous stars, but ultimately has little substance or imagination for an action-comedy. – Cultural mix.
“This clumsy locomotive is neither hilariously amoral nor violently aggressive. Sometimes it makes noise, but most of the time it just spins the wheels. – International screen.
“Bullet Train’s greatest weapon is in the sculpted form of star Brad Pitt, who once again proves he’s as charming as a movie god as a wry, self-deprecating comedy actor in a variety of hilarious scenes.” – Globe and Mail.
“It’s another one of those films that you watch when you have nothing better to do. You know when Tarantino’s early films encouraged many filmmakers to think that they, too, could make a fast-paced comedy with explicit, pop gore references and a briefcase full of cash? So…” – The Wrap.
“The action is top class, and Brad Pitt and Aaron Taylor-Johnson are having fun like never before – and with all that hyperactive style and cartoonish violence, you’ll be ready to disembark at your final destination.” – Empire.
“’Bullet Train’ is a chaotic mix of Japanese and American references mixed together in an over-the-top riot that’s violent as hell and a whole lot of fun.” – Punch to drunken critics.
Based on the book Maria Beetle by Kotaro Isaka, the plot follows “five assassins who find themselves on a moving high-speed train from Tokyo to Morioka, with only a few stops along the way. They discover that their missions are not not related, but the question is who will get out of the train alive and what awaits them at the final station?
