“Bullet Train”The 2-hour journey takes you on an unsettling, wild, and bloody trip across Japan. But if you’re here, that probably means you’re wondering what happens at the end of the line. You want to know if “Bullet Train”There is a scene after credits.
With a film as convoluted and tangled — and well, silly — as “Bullet Train,” it’s hard not to expect some kind of post-credits footage. This is especially true considering the fact that “Deadpool 2” director David Leitch helmed this movie too; he’s obviously no stranger to post-credit scenes. And that’s a good instinct, because “Bullet Train”Indeed, there is something to be thankful for.
Well, it’s sort of. “Bullet Train”The credits do have a stinger, but it starts only a few seconds into them. It’s not so much a post-credits scene, or even a mid-credits scene, given its placement. It starts just after the credits begin rolling so it counts. Fans get one more laugh before they depart.
In the scene, we’re taken back to a few minutes earlier, when Lemon (Brian Tyree Henry) lunged at one of White Death’s henchman, hurling both men off the train and into water. Now, considering how fast a bullet train moves, it’s easy to assume that both were killed on impact. Lemon has good news. Lemon survives, but so does his henchman.
Lemon can, however, retrieve an automatic weapon from the sea, which fires just as well. He then finds his way back home after taking care of his opponent. He is fortunate enough to come across a tangerine pickup truck (RIP Aaron Taylor Johnson, you were too good in this assassin-filled universe). He quickly takes control and drives back towards the final crash site.
It turns out that he was the one who killed The Prince after Ladybug (Brad Pitt), The Mother (Andrew Kooji), and The Elder (Hiroyuki Sanada). It’s just a cherry on top that he avenges his brother’s death in a tangerine truck, and he rides off in celebration. It’s an excellent final kill for the film, and something you certainly don’t want to miss.
Other than that, there are no other post-credit scenes. “Bullet Train.”To tie things up cleanly, like any good assassin.
