The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 Free Movies

By Janice Davies

The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 movie is a thriller that grabs you from the word go. John Travolta and Denzel Washington, two of Hollywoods most famous actors, star in this exciting film which is a 1974 movie remake. Tony Scott, the director of this movie, has made a few changes to the story, giving it a personal treatment that adds much to the movie in terms of suspense and nervous excitement.

Walter (Denzel Washington) holds the post of a dispatcher with the Subway Control Center of New York. When he finds the Pelham 1 2 3 has ground to a halt for no apparent technical reason, he attempts to check with the engine driver through radio.

On the Pelham 1 2 3, John Travolta has effectively taken control and announces the passengers as his hostages. Travoltas character, Ryder, demands that the New York City mayor cough up $10 million within an hour or be prepared to watch as he slays one person every minute when the ransom period has elapsed.

Spell-binding performances by both mega stars keep audiences on the edge of their seats. Washingtons understated portrayal of the dispatcher is the perfect foil to Travoltas exquisite depiction of a brutal yet intelligent crook.

John Turturro who plays a short cop role as a negotiator also manages to set the screen on fire with his intense acting. Unfortunately though his is a minute role cut short by the terrorists unwillingness to negotiate with anyone but Walter.

Throughout the movie the action scenes are intense and the movie grips you as you keep wondering if one of the hostages is going to get killed or not. The movie also manages to balance itself well walking the line without going over the top and maintaining a realistic approach.
