Default Taking Pelham 123

I found this to be fairly entertaining, some of the zooming video effects I found to be cheesy as hell, along with John Travolta's dialogue, but he also cracked me up quite a bit....

overall if you are looking to have something keep your attention this does it right off the bat..
it is VERY predictable, almost like they want you to be able to predict it

7 out of 10

I kind of liked it. Travolta was a bit over the top, but its worth a $4 rental. I've seen much worse.

Doesnot hold a candle to the original, and due to it being a remake i was not holding out much hope, great cast and high budget do not make a good film any longer.

this is an average film, worth a look if you have not seen the original or if you want a thriller of sorts...i give it a 5 outta 10 cause i like John T and Denzel.

Not worth crossing the street for, i expect they both did it for a paycheck and nothing more.
