Classic Brad Pitt Kung Fu Comic Book
Great cast and acting, great setting and atmosphere, nonstop entertainment. I am a big fan of kung fu movies, constantly have Bruce Lee in the background, and while this might technically not be a kung fu movie, it captures the spirit of them. Definitely also has some Guy Ritchie inspiration to it. Some people are saying Tarantino but I dont see that at all. Not even close to a similar tone to Tarantino. I guess because its an ensemble of assassins in Asia and kung fu inspired? Seems to be really weird nitpicking to make that off link, or to call this movie derivative instead of inspired. Its definitely its own brand new thing in many ways.
It felt like an exciting action comic book to me. Every actor is happy to be there and putting their all into these extremO assassin caricatures. Its good to see Brad Pitt have real fun like this and try again, he even does the old Tyler Durden happy dance at one point. Joey King is also one of my favorites from many so bad they're good type movies. This one is actually good so that's fun. Lemon is very fun. A train setting is extremely fun. Some fun twists and surprise cameos. For me specifically it felt like they just rounded up all my favorite movie ingredients in a blender to make a perfect movie smoothie. This movie has it all and keeps it moving like a bullet train, will definitely be rewatched by me several times for many years as its just a very pleasant stylistic environment. If you cant have fun with this movie I hope whatever is troubling you gets better for you and you find some better fate and/or luck soon.
