S4.E3. Bullet Train: Styled to Perfection or a Messy Train Wreck? w/ The Kilt and the Redneck
Thursday, 5 February, 2026
The doors are closing and the luck is running out! 🚅💥 Welcome to Season 4, Episode 3 of The Average. Tonight, we are stepping onto the fastest train in Japan for a high-speed, neon-drenched deep dive into the 2022 action-extravaganza: BULLET TRAIN. Joining us in the cabin tonight is the fantastic Evan from @thekiltandtheredneck! Together, we’re breaking down why this movie—directed by Brad Pitt’s former stunt double, David Leitch—might just be the most underrated action flick of the last five years. From the "Seven Samurai" vibes to the legendary chemistry of Lemon and Tangerine, we’re putting this film through our 9-Category Scorecard. Does the stylized "Volume" cinematography and Guy Ritchie-esque dialogue earn it a spot at the top of the Season 4 Leaderboard? Or does the "luck" run out before the final station? In this episode, we discuss: Stunt Double to Director: The incredible connection between Brad Pitt and David Leitch. The Soundstage Secret: How they filmed the Japanese countryside in the middle of LA. Character Arcs: Why Lemon, Tangerine, and even a bottle of water stole the show. Style vs. Substance: Does the frantic pacing help or hurt the story? THE FINAL VERDICT: We average our scores with the LIVE chat to find the definitive rating.
