Film Review: The Taking of Pelham 123

See the source image


Release date: October 2nd 1974.

Story: Four criminals (known as Mr Blue, Mr Green, Mr Grey, and Mr Brown) hijack a subway train and say that they will kill the hostages unless New York city pays one million dollars. It is up to a New York Transit Authority Police Lieutenant (played by Walter Matthau) to try and save the day. Will he be able to do it? Watch the movie and find out.

My thoughts: This is a great movie.  It may be slow but it makes up for it with great characters and a nail biting climax. If you are interested in action/suspense movies then this is the movie for you.

My score: Four stars.
