Movie Verdict
Movies set on trains always pique our interest; we were particularly thrilled by Train to Bhushan, a superbly tense production. Bullet Train is less of a thriller and more of a comedy, and while it does a good job of setting the scene for its protagonist, it drags in the middle.
Though it features an intriguing story and some enjoyable scenes and inventive action sequences, director David Leitch was unable to keep viewers interested throughout the entire film. While the film has several amusing components that are executed well, the premise of the world’s finest assassins stealing a suitcase may appear ridiculous at first, but it becomes compelling until the struggle faces the audience.
Despite Aaron Taylor getting some material to perform and the rest of the cast doing fine work, Brad Pitt’s performance as LadyBugg stands out as the film’s highlight.
In his critically acclaimed film Dead Pool, director David Leitch partially succeeded in captivating the audience; his script is superb, but the film’s execution fell short, and the film’s emotional message didn’t land as well as it could have.
Bullet Train looks great technically, with brilliant work from the director of photography Jonathan Sela and the rest of the crew. Dominic Lewis’s score is decent but might have been stronger, and editor Elisabet Ronaldsdottir should have trimmed some of the more tedious early scenes.
In conclusion, Bullet Train is a great movie for fans of the action genre because it’s a lot of fun and has a few intense sequences.
