Like confetti cake, it looks like fun but doesn't have enough substance.
Bullet Train feels like it tries too hard to be quirky and comes across as more convoluted than streamlined.
Whatever quirkiness left that doesn't feel forced is stained by the WTF dripping off it like blood from an open sore.
That said, the frantic pace combined with some nice lead actors (Aaron Taylor-Johnson nailed his part) and fun cameos keep this train afloat.
