What is Bullet Train about?

Set in Tokyo, Japan - unlucky assassin Ladybug (Brad Pitt - Fury, Fightclub) is determined to do his job peacefully after one too many gigs gone off the rails.

Fate, however, may have other plans, as Ladybug's latest mission puts him on a collision course with lethal adversaries (Aaron Taylor-Johnson - Kick-Ass and Michael Shannon - Man Of Steel) from around the globe—all with connected, yet conflicting, objectives—on the world's fastest train.

John Wick director David Leitch and cinematographer Jonathan Sela team up once more to deliver another hilarious action comedy; expect to see some cameos from some of Hollywood's biggest names too.

Bullet Train Reviews

"Let's just say with all these stunts, gore and adrenaline-inducing sequences, it is hard to be bored."

"Bullet Train employs David Leitch's maximalist style in a purposefully silly narrative driven by frenetic action and distinct humour. Every second with Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Brian Tyree Henry is genuinely hilarious."

"AWESOME. The last big ride for the summer that brought back the movie theatre experience for so many people & what a film to end on. Widely entertaining from top to bottom that constantly gives you laughs, action, & insanity."
