Review of The Taking of Pelham One Two Three (1974) by John . — 11 Mar 2008
Very good film. With colours for the names of the crooks it is easy to make the comparison with Reservoir Dogs. A less obvious comparison would be with Speed, I wouldn't want to give anything of the story away so you'll have to watch for yourself or ask me.
I wonder what other films "borrowed" ideas from this film? Jerry Stiller is in this and looks old, was he ever young? Amazing to think that over 30 years on he is still making movies.
