Turn off your Spidey Sense and enjoy a colourful, thrilling, witty Action flick (which doesn't make a whole lot of sense, but well).
First of all, what's not so great: The last act is a drag. The film (and some characters) overstay their welcome, too many plot elements and too much happening outside the train, which gives insight to the obvious studio set.
Also Joey King is 100% forgettable. I instantly forgot about her character after the credits rolled.
Now, too the good stuff: Cinematography. Nothing to add. Wonderful.
Brad Pitt is SO much fun. Always a joy to see on screen. This dude just has fun doing these movies and you can feel it through the screen.
The side characters are fun as well.
Lighting, Colour grading and the dialogue are a big plus, too.
Just a joy to experience if you want a fun time.
Cut some at the very start and throughout the last 40 minutes and this would be the perfect comedic Action flick. More Pitt in the future!
7/10.
