First Glance: “Bullet Train”

I’ve been waiting for this one. “Bullet Train” is a star-studded action-comedy directed by David Leitch, the man behind movies like “John Wick”, “Hobbs and Shaw”, and “Deadpool 2” (ugh). Here he teams with a stacked cast of noteworthy names that includes Brad Pitt, Sandra Bullock, Brian Tyree Henry, Joey King, Michael Shannon, Andrew Koji, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Hiroyuki Sanada, Zazie Beetz, Logan Lerman, Bad Bunny, Masi Oka, and more.

This is the kind of crazy action movie where characters sport goofy names like Ladybug, Prince, Tangerine, Kimura, and Lemon. Set aboard a non-stop train speeding through the Japanese countryside, the story follows five assassins who each find themselves after the same silver briefcase. It looks like we’re in for loads of crazy action and lots of humor. Punch my ticket!

“Bullet Train” hits theaters July 15th. Check out the trailer below and let me know if you’ll be seeing it or taking a pass.
