The movie bullet train is a 2022 flim directed by David leitch.
The movie is based on a novel maria bee written by a Kotoro Isaka,
It's genre is comedy, action and thriller.
It's a 2hrs 6min movie that raps around fate, Justice, goodluck, badluck, revenge, karma, redemption and wrath.
Each of them had their different roles,
It is rates R due to it's strong bloody violence, pervasive language and brief sexuality.
It starts with an assassin filling in for the other due to some stomach upset, he has a lovely connection with his handler which amazes me.
I did think handlers are bad people maybe cause of what happened in the man from Toronto.
His handler gave him ladybug which symbolize good luck, that wasn't really the case for assasin lady bug (brad pitt). While he always comes out of his failed mission, we can't say the same about the people he encounters, despite way too many jobs going off the rails, and being less of a violent person, he has still refused to quit.
Lady bug felt retrieving a specific breif case which always have the same thing in it (money) should be less stressful for a trained assassin, he gets on the train to notice he lost his ticket and replaces it with receipt, few moments later he finds the briefcase with a sticker on it's handle as described by his handler, his next move was to get off at the next train stop.
However, even this mission won't be as straight forward as he hoped because nothing good comes easy they say, their literally other ruthless passengers looking for the briefcase each with their motives and means to get it,
They are the twins Lemon(Brian Tyree Henry) and tangerine (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) the one who got the briefcase to the train, the hornet (Zazic Beetz), young prince(Joey king) kimura(Andrew Koji) and the initial onwer of the briefcase the white death(Micheal Shannon).
The twins original retrieved the case and white death's son , he did hire them for revenge though the were yet to realize, the thought it was just them escorting his son and his briefcase to koyoto station.
The chemistry between the twins amazes me, their literally different black and white, lemon keeps annoying tangerine with his tank engines and reading people, while the other is attached to gold fish biscuit and steals it alot.
After a while of being back and forth with their argument the discovered their briefcase has been stolen,that's the most discomforting news to be heard, cause the white death cut people's arm if you fail to deliver a job, Lemon wonders why he couldn't get the job on his own since his the most feared man, but intel says since his wife died he hasn't left his compound,the twins
quest to search for it began
Kimura's son was pushed from the rooftop he got on the train in search of the suspect, he found her but her innocent face looked deceitful and he felt she was just a kid unknown to him she was his suspect he became her vassal instead with threats pertaining to his son.
She's whitedeath's daughter but according to her she was barely noticed by him and her aim is to kill him using kimura.
Lady bug on the other hand felt good luck would rob on him once was about to get off the train was been attacked by the wolf, his wedding was massacred by the hornet,a serial killer who uses snake venom to kill,he came on the train to kill her however he didn't get a chance to get his revenge as he was killed by lady bug,
In lady bug's up and down sequence with the briefcase he meets with the hornet, he accepts to give her the briefcase but he insisted on his death saying he saw her face,
Karma is really a bitch cause she dies the exact same way she kills others.
Young prince continue's her manipulative ways which could be read by lemon, lemon drinks from his water bottle that was laced with narcotic by lady bug, suddenly lemon drops to the ground and prince reveals herself to be evil and shoots him in the chest.
Lemon survived the shots due to him wearing a bullet proof vest under his cloth.
His brother tangerine had no idea and thought he was dead the emotional scene there really got me.
He kept receiving threats from the white death and his people which didn't really matter to him since his brother was gone, walking through the train he sees the prince which claims innocence as always,
Tangerine found the train sticker on The Prince's backpack and recognized her as the one who shot Lemon, but The Prince tricked Ladybug by acting like an innocent girl being attacked and Ladybug got into a deadly fight with Tangerine which killed him.
The Elder which is kimura's father joins the the train before it stops at koyoto station, his aim is to take his revenge on the white death,
The white death killed his former boss and his wife since then his being planing his revenge if fate wills,
Lady bug says fate for him means badluck but he says other wise that everything he has been through brought him this far,
I do feel everything happens for a reasons and fate is not badluck is what life holds for us.
Lemon comes out of his unconscious state to find his brother corpse, he has a heart-to-heart conversation with Tangerine's corpse and blames Ladybug for his death. The Elder explains their situation and they all prepare for the White Death's attack. During the attack Lemon and Ladybug reconcile and Lemon forgives him, before sacrificing himself by jumping out of the moving train with one of the White Death's goons to save Ladybug.
In a mid-credits scene, it is revealed that Lemon survived the fall and landed inside a river. He promptly steals a fruit truck from a road and is revealed to be the one, who runs over the Prince at the end of the movie as revenge for causing Tangerine's death.
- Conclusion: The actions on the train were amazing, the actors did play their roles perfectly though the prince was extremely annoying due to her switch of characters, she could a sweet little girl and a devil the next minute,
The suspense as to who the white death really was and the reasons he got the five of them to embark on that mission.
