Ladybug, Brad Pitt’s character, is a hitman, returning to work after several bad luck cases. He has to recover a metal briefcase whilst on the bullet train between Tokyo and Kyoto. However, it seems like many people want this briefcase. There are two brothers, Lemon and Tangerine, who are supposed to bring back the Son to his father, the White Death, with the briefcase. The Prince who wants to take revenge on her father. The Hornet who poisons everyone, the Father, a yakuza who wants revenge because someone attacked his son, the Elder, the father of the Father… The objective of this entire situation was to kill one another while travelling on the train. Obviously, it will be more complicated than this. The film pulls out laughter even though people get hit, poisoned, strangled, and killed, and blood is everywhere. Very Tarantino style. Excellent.
