The Gray Man
{4.5/5} “Just another Thursday.”
The Gray Man, released in 2022
Six has been working for the CIA for 18 years as an assassin, ever since they got him out of jail. He’s given a target at a New Year’s Eve party in Bangkok. When he finally gets to the target, he reveals that he’s Four — from the same CIA group. Four gives him a medallion and tells him to find the truth. The medallion has a chip in it. Six himself is then marked for death.
There’s a plane breaking up in mid-air that’s pretty stunning.
Six and Claire’s conversations are delightful.
The premise might not be unique but with a stellar cast and the Russo Brothers’ assured direction, this is the action movie you want to watch today.
Stars Ryan Gosling, Chris Evans, Ana de Armas, Billy Bob Thornton, and Alfre Woodard. Directed by Anthony Russo and Joe Russo (Avengers: Endgame).
