But audiences expected more from the Russo Brothers, for obvious reasons. Yes, some of the action scenes are competently mounted and both Evans and Dhanush seem to be having a good time (the former’s line, “Hello my sexy Tamil friend” has already become meme gold). The Gray Man, sadly, has a rather generic and middling screenplay, because of which we never really invest in Sierra Six emotionally, even when he’s, say, risking his life to save a colleague’s daughter. Hansen unleashes basically every international assassin he knows against Sierra, including the enigmatic Avik San/Lone Wolf (played by Tamil superstar Dhanush).

Soon, Sierra Six becomes a hunted man, as Carmichael enlists the ruthless, sadistic mercenary Lloyd Hansen (Chris Evans, cast against type and having a lot of fun) to eliminate the threat. The film’s setup is fairly simple: during a routine overseas operation, Sierra Six discovers that Denny Carmichael (Rege Jean-Page), a rising star in the CIA, has been sanctioning off-the-books, illegal operations and orchestrating elaborate cover-ups to hide his corruption. The Gray Man stars Ryan Gosling as ‘Sierra Six’ a convicted murderer who accepts the CIA’s ( Central Intelligence Agency ) offer to become a black-ops assassin on their payroll. This is why people were excited about the duo’s latest action thriller, The Gray Man, which released on Netflix on July 22. Or the battle royale that caps off Endgame, for that matter. Look at the opening fight sequence in Winter Soldier, a spicy blend of spy-movie freneticism and martial arts precision.

The Russo Brothers, who’ve directed Marvel money-churners like Captain America: Winter Soldier and Avengers: Endgame, know how to shoot super-kinetic, large-scale action scenes-we knew this much already. Hollywood is CIA Propaganda and PsyOps, CIA Propaganda and PsyOps and nothing but CIA Propaganda and PsyOps.
