A snappy storyline
Pitt portrays an assassin whose most recent alias is “Ladybug,” so the plot should be action-packed. The assassin Prince (Joey King), Tangerine (Aaron Taylor-Johnson), Lemon (Brian Tyree Henry), and Kimura are among the assassins that board a bullet train going quickly through Japan as part of a new assignment (Andrew Koji). The R-rated Sony movie also stars Sandra Bullock.
An adaptation of a Japanese novel
Based on a Japanese novel by Kotaro Isaka, published in 2010, Zak Olkewicz wrote the screenplay. The book, titled “Bullet Train” in English, is available on Amazon in hardcover, paperback, and Kindle formats for anyone who wants to compare the film to the original writing.
Director with a focus on action
David Leitch, who previously directed “Deadpool 2” (2018) and “Atomic Blonde” (2017), which starred Ryan Reynolds and Charlize Theron, demonstrated his skill with the action movie genre. Leitch, though, is not one of those directors who just stands back and yells “action!” Leitch was a frequent stunt performer and coordinator on other people’s movies before taking the helm (including numerous featuring Pitt).
