I don’t remember ever hearing cursing in a green band trailer before.

If the train goes under 250mph it explodes.

The movie looks really fun. I’m not sure it screams for an IMAX viewing but more power to them for getting it in there.

Not that he wasn't already popular and will be starring in El Muerto but Bad Bunny is in this, too. That thumbnail above that DJ posted is BB fighting Brad Pitt.

Cameo trades. Funny that his name is Ladybug and she's Maria Beetle.

I think it looks terrible but my God it's been advertised like crazy. I've seen more ads for this movie than for Top Gun Maverick, Jurassic Wild Dominion and Thor Love & Thunder combined.

I think it looks fun. Fan of the director's other movies (Deadpool 2, Atomic Blonde, John Wick). I generally like Brad Pitt and Sandra Bullock. I've become a mild fan of Joey King. And a blonde Karen Fukuhara (The Boys) looks hot in, probably, a small role.

Yeah, they had a ton of cross ads with the NBA during the finals. And now I'm seeing a LOT of ads online for Tumi, whom apparently makes the briefcase they're all after in the film.

I will definitely be seeing it because of Leitch. Hopefully it will deliver on the stunts and action.

The screening tonight is not exclusive to AMC, but is is exclusive to upscale screens (Dolby or similar)

It's also ineligible for Tuesday discounts everywhere, as far as I can tell.

I've read the book and am interesting to see how it is adapted for the big screen. I found the Lemon character kind of annoying in the book.

That train ride passes Mount Fuji. I hope the characters take time off from killing each other to look out the window and see it.

This wasn't filmed in Japan.

He said the characters, not the actors.

It looks like a lot of the movie might take place at night. Not sure how much the characters can see....plus they seem to be busy trying to kill each other.

It was ok. Fun for the most part. Some decent fight choreography, but a little too much CG at the end. The plot was a bit convoluted and could've been done with fewer backstories resulting in a shorter run time.

The entire cast is great and anything this is lacking is not due to them. It's just kind of a derivate script... ala Tarantino knockoffs of the 90s.

Loved it. Saw it last night. Had a more Guy Ritchie flair than QT, IMO. The 4K disc will be mine.

Was entertaining, but I already have forgotten most of it
