Review of The Taking of Pelham One Two Three (1974) by Jack D — 16 Jul 2009
Throughout the history of filmmaking, there have been few brilliant movies, this one is one of the lucky few! The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 in my opinion is the 4th best movie of the year (behind The Godfather II, Deliverance, and China Town), an original movie with an original plot.
Many movies have hostage negotiations, shootings, interrogations, police involvement, but this movie takes it to the place of the most unlikely setting, a subway station! This means that not only is this movie brilliantly performed, suspenseful, and great.
..but the movie is so original I kicked it up 10%.
