Bullet Train may not be the worst picture of 2022 – but it’s gonna come close! the film, incoherently adapted by Zak Olkewicz from Kotaro Isaka’s 2010 novel Maria Beetle, it’s feverishly directed by David Leitch (Atomic Blonde, Deadpool 2) with bumpy nods to the tenants of Thomas the Train Engine. Since there’s zero character development, the imbecilic, almost non-stop violence is dutifully chronicled by cinematographer Jonathan Sela.

BULLET TRAIN – Review by T. J. Callahan

Bullet Train is all about the action. There’s a storyline in there somewhere, but this rapid transit is long and has so many cars you may need Google Maps. Every single character has their own separate and overlapping narrative, including a bottle of Fiji water. No one and no thing is left out, except for us. It’s our job to bob and weave and stay upright. Directed by David Leitch and prpduced by Antoine Fuqua, , Bullet Train can’t help but be pedigreed for pandemonium.
