Following the Bank Holiday weekend in the UK, Netflix’s updated popular movies chart has seen yet another new entry charge into the ranks. It’s a modern Brad Pitt classic that takes the no.1 spot – but while I love it, it clearly splits opinion, with many viewers less enthusiastic.
However, the Rotten Tomatoes consensus differs:Bullet Trainhas a measly 54% critics' ratingon the review aggregator site; viewers, meanwhile, aren’t unanimous – with its 74% score made up of various lovers and haters.

With Brad Pitt playing Ladybug, a for-hire assassin suffering anxiety about his professional abilities, the movie nets a well-established star to carry its merit. Pitt is famous for so many other fan-favourites, though, thatBullet Trainsplits opinion like no other.Seven(1995),Fight Club(1999),Snatch(2000),The Departed(2006) – just four examples of high-90s-rated movies he’s starred in.
Elsewhere on the cast,Bullet Traindeploys Aaron Taylor Johnson to incredible effect as Tangerine; Brian Tyree Henry is his partner in crime, Lemon; Joey King is mesmerising as Prince; while even Michael Shannon, Hiroyuki Sanada and Sandra Bullock each have bitparts to play.

I’m not surprised the movie has rocketed to the no.1 spot in Netflix’s chart. But before you write it off as a miss given the ratings, I’d say if you’re perusingthe best streaming servicesone spare evening and fancy a funny, zany action movie that kicks ass while being firmly tongue-in-cheek the whole way through, giveBullet Traina shot. It’ll look particularly epic on one ofthe best OLED TVs, too, such as theSony A95L.
