Brad Pitt, the senior of the three, enunciates the fact that the script came to him during a difficult time in his life when the lockdown was making everyone“a bit stir crazy and really like questioning our choices”. But the film made for a good distraction from all the tangible yet quiet panic that the world had succumbed to and it was even better since it gave Pitt a reason to laugh. Of course, it adds to the humor of the film that the characters display an increasing fever dream-like quality to their presence which places them outside of basic reality. All in all, it will make for a good summer distraction, just as it did with the three stars of Leitch’s latest film.
Bullet Trainis now playing in theatres globally.
