The Taking of Pelham One Two Three—dated
1974 movie, but worth watching—does not compare in quality or entertainment value
as compared to the Tony Scott 2009 remake of the same movie that stars Denzel
Washington and John Travolta. Look for Jerry Stiller in this film.
Storyline
Four
men take hostages in a New York public transport system and threaten to kill
them unless the city ransoms them.
