Bullet Train (2022)

20230629:
This was on my list due to the Netlfix preview, but the movie started off with a slightly different - perhaps more humorous tone than the preview would have indicated. In any case, at first the movie seemed to have elements of Kill Bill in it. However, as the movie progressed, the deeper story began to unravel and all the connections and reveals made for an exciting second half of the film. In particular, the resulting climax and resolution were excellent.
Instant Comments:
Thomas the Train Engine
Haha. Percy.
Whoa. Double swords crossed through the neck.
The Prince.
Huh. I can't tell if he just died of something or if he was killed
WTF happened? (how did everybody at the wedding except him die?)
LOL. WTF. What are the chances? (blade deflects and lands back at him in the heart
Hehe. "Let this be lesson in the toxicity of anger."
Hehe. "Shitballs. That wasn't a minute."
Smile. I'm not a Diesel, you're a Diesel.
The Boomslang.
This passenger looks familiar [Channing Tatum] ("Is this like a... sex thing?")
Hahaha. What dumb bad luck (opens the case with a spin; "Yeah... so no one gets greedy.")
"Tell Tangerine he's Gordon."
Oh no, poor Lemon.
The Hornet
How come Wolf came to kill The Hornet (who he has photos of) but attacked Ladybug?
Hahaha. "Oh, shit, man. Do you have a backup?" "What do you think, bitch?" (I mean... I can see her using the poison safely against civilians, but against a professional... it's a big risk; alternatively, I would have thought she was immune)
Why did it take her so long to die? (compared to The Son)
Karma is a bitch.
Huh. Not entirely sure why Ladybug interferred with Lemon trying to shoot the Prince
Haha. Him flushing the snake is hilarious.
Smile. "My grandson was pushed off a roof. What makes you think I would leave him unprotected."
Oh shit. The snake isn't dead.
The Elder
Smile. "I don't want to hold the seven sorrows."
Oh wow. Twist. (bullet proof vest)
"You... you were more like Thomas, anyway."
I wonder if he will get revenge (if Lemon will kill Prince)
Did Kimura inform Ladybug that the case is armed?
Ooo. Another twist. ("Daughter" "Father")
Hmm. He blames other people for what is more a consequence of his life of crime...
Carver (Ryan Reynolds)
As this crazy fighting is going on (guys on the roof get killed from stray gun fire), I'm thinking someone will die from that snake in the toilet.
Hehe. The Water Bottle.
I feel like this over-the-top crash was well done and actually quite enjoyable to watch
Yikes... what a... he finally fired his daughter's gun.
Haha. "The narcisscism on this chick. Unbelievable." Smile. "Was that karma?" "Farewell, tentomushi." "Tangerine." (wow)
Sandra Bullock
"I'm ballpointing" [apparently some similar expressions for poop are "touching cloth" and "turtling"]
Hehe. Lemon! (oh wow, so my question on revenge turned out to be yes)
