I enjoyed it

I'm not saying it is great and perhaps it's a little uneven in places - but I enjoyed it. I liked Pitt's character, I thought Tangerine and Lemon were an interesting couple and I appreciated all the Thomas The Tank Engine references. Could have done with a bit more of Zazie Beets and perhaps a little less of Joey King (though she did seem to disappear for 10 minutes which had me trying to remember where she'd gone). There were other names it's always good to see and overall, it's silly and fast and the cartoon violence is fun.
I also liked the guest appearance of Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum (returning a favour for The Lost City?).

Don't forget the quick appearance of Ryan Reynolds (returning a favor for Deadpool 2).

I liked it but it was a chaotic movie. It had spells where you couldn't remember who was doing what to whom and why. I thought it was a fun romp though and would watch it again.

I was hoping Dexter would show up.

That would have been so great.

Yes it was a good popcorn action movie to see at the theatre with Wifey.

I did,too...Sandra Bullock has a major role as (the source's title character) Maria Beetle, returning a favour for Lost City with Channing Tatum but basically only in voice except in flashback near the beginning and at the end

Agreed. If you like action films, especially violent and sometimes gory action films, this was a fun romp.

The Thomas references were painfully unfunny. The writer tried to make it a thing and failed

I guess it worked for me and other folks seemed to have enjoyed them too. I'm wondering if they were part of the original comic books.

What a great chaotic movie. Bullet Train is such an entertaining movie. I LOVED IT TOO! The movie is still doing well since the release and even now the theatres still have a few screenings per day with Top Gun: Maverick, that is amazing. One of Brad Pitt's best performances in recent memory, that man is awesome in this! And Ryan Reynolds should do more cameos. XD
