The Gray Man (2022)
#4
Well, now I understand the crashed train exhibit. 

It was a predictable globetrotting empty actioner. Gosling plays it stoic and is now pretty buff. Evans is a cheesy villain and yes, the trash stache helps. Thorton kinda phones it all in as the Gray Man's ally. Henwick was okay - nice to see her again even if her role was simplistic. Armas was hawt.

The action was choppy but the frenetic camerawork was impressive. There were some remarkable shots, which I imagine were drone derived as the camera zipped through environments moving from one bit of the story to another in a swirling flight. Typically, I disdain action that obscures what's happening. But the fights were followable and decently constructed. They had a good fight team and this was so much about over-the-top action that worked for me. 

So much firefight and boomy boom. Quite gratuitous with the ultravi but not particularly gruesome, except for the implictions of the torture scenes. 

I shared Evans' frustration that no one was able to shoot Gosling. His comments toward that struck me as kinda funny, but not lol funny, just mildy amusing in an ironic way. 

I'm going to say it's not D00M recommended because the D00MBros that might be interested have already seen it, except maybe cf.
