Review of Bullet Train

Bullet Train (2022)
6/10
Sorry couldn't get through this
13 September 2022
I watched the first twenty minutes or so and gave up, because the unfunny and unnecessary dialogue was going over my head. The characterization was annoying too. I mean Lemon and Tangerine?? They are introduced making fun of their code name or something, and I couldn't stand how long they were going on about it. No offense to the actors, it's the script and directing that didn't sit well with me. Which is disappointing because I was looking forward to all the action shown in the trailer and I couldn't bear to get through the first thirty minutes because of bad writing.

I've had similar experience with another film, the trailer looked really good but I cringed because of the dumb dialogue and quit ten minutes in. The visuals are getting absolutely gorgeous and stunning each year, but it is the writing that is at the heart of every entertainment. I don't think I will watch this again unless it's only for the action and visuals.
