The thrills may be zooming by at a gazillion miles per hour but you can sit back, relax and enjoy the blockbuster movie Bullet Train at leisure, as Oscar winners Brad Pitt and Sandra Bullock team up for this pulsating action comedy with the need for speed.
Sony Pictures, in partnership with DStv Box Office, brings you all the adrenaline-soaked action this summer.
Pitt, who has previously shown his flair for comedy in films such as Inglourious Basterds, Once Upon a Time … in Hollywood (for which he won a Best Supporting Actor Academy Award) and Burn After Reading, stars as Ladybug, the self-proclaimed “unluckiest assassin in the world”.
He accepts a job that seems quick, easy and straightforward, and is determined to do it properly after a series of mishaps.
As fate and luck would have it, Ladybug finds himself derailed from his mission as he faces off against a number of other assassins on the world’s fastest train as it criss-crosses Japan from Tokyo to Kyoto.
Prepare for non-stop thrills and a barrage of wisecracks in this irreverent joyride from David Leitch, the director of Deadpool 2 and John Wick.
Bullet Train is based on the Japanese novel of the same name by Kōtarō Isaka, and also stars Sandra Bullock (Gravity), Joey King (The Act), Aaron Taylor-Johnson (Kick-Ass), Hiroyuki Sanada (Mortal Kombat) and Michael Shannon (Boardwalk Empire).
Sowetan Live hailed Bullet Train as “big comedy action with big stars”, while Daily Maverick dubbed it “a thrilling non-stop action comedy … Bullet Train serves up a dose of exhilarating action and good comedy to boot”.
Be sure to make a date on November 4th with your couch and with DStv Box Office for this entertaining, fast-paced joyride!
