There's too many MFing hitmen in this MFing movie!

I don't know how Samuel L. Jackson was not in this movie. He was probably occupied elsewhere because I know people have to had called him in. Everyone else was there: Brad Pitt, Channing Tatum and Sandra Bullock - repaying Brad for the cameo in their movie, Ryan Reynolds (because that's how nice Canadians are), Andrew Koji and Hiroyuki Sanada (frankly I expected more of them), Michael Shannon, Zazie Beets (in withdrawal from Deadpool movies?), a quirky Black and White duo of fast talking and philosophizing Brits, even Masi Oka was there, apparently teleporting around for no good reason. Many others, too.

The film is a Quentin Tarantino homage from beginning to end, based on a Japanese book, set in a bullet train with some Guy Ritchie stuff sprinkled in and many cameos. The whole moral of the movie was that fate makes all actors meet eventually (paraphrasing here). Was it good? Don't know. I was entertained, that's all i can say. It made little sense, logically, but it didn't matter. It was like Train to Busan with known actors instead of zombies.
